Increasing the grain yield of cereals, which is stable under unfavorable environmental stress, is a major objective to sustain production and feed the growing world population. Recently, we functionally characterized a receptor-like cytoplasmic kinase, named GROWTH UNDER DROUGHT KINASE (GUDK), revealing its role in regulating grain yield under well-watered and drought stress conditions by trans...

genetic variation is necessary factor for continued breeding and increasing genetic gain from selection in crop plants. to evaluate genetic variation and genetic gain from selection in bread wheat, 45 genotypes consisting of 9 cultivars and their 36 crosses were grown in a randomized complete block design with three replications in research farm of isfahan university of technology. the phenotyp...

in order to investigation of nitrogen fertilizer split application effect on quantity yield and grain quality of rice varieties, an experiment was carried out based on rcbd design as split plot experiment in three replications in langroud in 2006. mainand sub factor were variety (hashemi and bahar 1) and five nitrogen fertilizer split application (split of 150 kg.ha-1 n at transplanting, stemmi...

Soybean (Glycine max L.) is considered as one of the major sources of oil and protein. In this study, the effects of vermicompost (VC) and sulfur (S) on soybean photosynthesis responses, yield, and grain quality were studied. To this end, a split-plot design field experiment based on randomized complete blocks with nine treatments and three replications was conducted in Aligudarz city Lorestan ...

to investigate the effects of drought stress and different combinations of animal manure with super absorbent polymer on yield and yield components of corn, a split plots design was conducted based on a randomized complete block design with 3 replications in fars agricultural research center in 2007. irrigation treatments were assigned as the main factor in three levels: 70, 105 and 140 mm evap...

Water deficit is an important factor limiting crop growth all over the world. In order to evaluate genetic variation, heritability and the interrelationship between agronomic traits, twenty chickpea genotypes were cultivated in two separated randomized complete block experiments with three replications under normal irrigated and rainfed conditions. The experiments were carried out at the Agricu...

to evaluate canola cultivars response to physiological characteristics and grain yield end seasonal drought stress in weather condition of ahvaz, farm experiments were done at research farm of khuzestan agriculture and natural resources center. during 2007-2008 and 2008-2009 crop years. farm test comprised drought stress was done as split plot form with randomize complete block design with four...
