the responses of yield and yield components of 24 advanced bread wheat genotypes to pre- and post-anthesis drought stress conditions were studied at ardabil agricultural re-search station during the 1997-2000 cropping seasons. results showed that genotypes produced significantly lower spikes no./m2, seeds no./spike and grain yield under pre- than in post-anthesis drought stress conditions. howe...

this study evaluates the effect of irrigation method on the water use efficiency and yield of onions at the zahak agricultural research station in sistan province. the testing was conducted using a split plot arrangement and a randomized complete block design with three replications during the 2005-2006 crop seasons. irrigation methods were basin and drip tape irrigation and the irrigation leve...

cyphomandra betacea (cav.) is a native species from south america that is cultivated because its fruits have a high content of vitamins. in colombia, it is common to find periods of drought between the rainy seasons or during enso events such as el niño. an adequate nutritional status of k+ in plants helps to increase the chance of tolerating the negative effects of drought stress. regarding th...

abstract in order to investigate the effect of irrigation and nitrogen fertilizer, on yield peanut plant, with furrow method of irrigation and water use efficiency (wue) in management to create a proper and better production, split plot experiment was over taken as in complete randomize blocks with three replications and main plot with 6, 12 and 18 day interval irrigation and no irrigation and ...

abstract one of the ways to increase economic and environmental efficiency of drainage systems is water table management. water table management consists of, controlled drainage and subirrigation. this study examines the effect of controlled drainage on yield, root distribution pattern and water use efficiency of maize (sc 704) in karaj. the experiment was performed as a randomized complete des...

Siberian wildrye (Elymus sibiricus L.) is a perennial and self-fertilizing forage grass that support animal husbandry environmental sustenance in the world. In order to explore influence of nitrogen(N) application seed production, field experiments were conducted evaluated effect different N treatments (of 0, 30, 60, 90 120 kg/hm2) on dry matter, accumulation, transport utilization, yield compo...

to study the effects of below leaves excision and nitrogen application on stomatal characteristics of wheat flag leaf, grain protein, dry matter remobilization, grain yield and yield component, leaf area of winter wheat (t. aestivum cv. ghods) was artificially reduced under filed condition. the experimental design was a factorial on a rcb with 3 replications, a combination of three levels of de...

water use efficiency is positively correlated with grain yield, and being used for indirect selection of high wheat yield in drought prone environments. yet little is known about genetic control of water use efficiency. in this research, a half diallel mating design was generated from crosses between 8 bread wheat to study the genetic of water use efficiency. parents and f1 progenies were plant...

Timing of various developmental stages including anthesis and whole-plant ('monocarpic') senescence influences yield and quality of annual crops. While a correlation between flowering/seed filling and whole-plant senescence has been observed in many annuals, it is unclear how the gene networks controlling these processes interact. Using near-isogenic germplasm, it has previously been demonstrat...

in order to study dry matter accumulation in different developmental stages and photoassimilates remobilization in bread wheat genotypes, a field experiment was carried out using a split split plot design based on a randomized complete block design with three replications in torogh agricultural and natural resources research station (mashhad, iran) in 2006-2007 and 2007-2008. main plots were as...
