maize improvement for high temperature tolerance requires the reliable assessment of parental inbred lines and their combinations. fifteen maize inbred lines were evaluated during 2007 and 2008 in shushtar city (khuzestan province). the inbred lines were planted at two dates: 6 july, to coincide heat stress with pollination time; and 27 july, as normal planting to avoid high temperature during ...

in order to map the genomic regions affecting barley drought tolerance indices, an experiment was conducted at the agricultural and natural resource station of sistan. seventy tow double haploid lines of barley with their parents (steptoe and morex) were examined using two 9×9 simple lattice (stress and non-stress), with two replications. each plot consisted of six rows that were 3m in length a...

in order to quantify of schooling behavioral responses of rosy barb (puntius barbus) subjected to acute decreasing temperature stress monitored by computer- vision system. four aquaria as duplicate with a density of 30 fish per unit were used for rearing of fish in normal and stress conditions. some geometric schooling parameters such as average location of center gravity school and distance of...

Objective: In order to study genetic variation and effect of drought stress on grain yield and some morphological traits in chickpea, an experiment was conducted on 64 genotypes during 2013-2014 cropping season at deputy of Kermanshah Sararood Dry Land Agricultural Research Institute, located on the western part of Iran. Methods: The experimental design was a randomized lattice design with tow ...

At percent, Zn stress tolerance using novel genetic resources is an important mitigation strategy for plant breeding. In this study, thirty-five durum wheat genotypes with different growth habits were evaluated under normal (non-stress) and Zn deficient stress during the 2014-15 cropping season. A total of ten Zn stress tolerance indices including stress tolerance index (STI), relative zinc-def...

the deleterious effects of salinity on plant growth and development are associated with the imbalance ion in plant, decreased k+ and increased na+, and ultimately yield loss. in order to evaluate the effects of salinity, 41 bread wheat varieties (trticum aestivum l.) were planted in the randomized complete block design with three replications under two saline irrigation conditions, 0.631 and 11...
