although inter-variety variability for salt tolerance has been reported in bread wheat plants, little information is available on the genetic control of ion contents and biomass yield under saline conditions. a diallel cross, including reciprocals of two salt tolerant, two moderately tolerant and two sensitive iranian and exotic bread wheat varieties, was analyzed to investigate the inheritance...

Drought is an important factor limiting crop production in arid and semi-arid conditions. Drought indices which provide a measure of drought based on yield loss under drought condition in comparison to normal condition was used for screening drought-tolerant genotypes. This study was conducted to determine drought tolerant genotypes with high yield in stress and non-stress conditions. Ten barle...

this study was conducted to evaluate the effect of drought stress on 22 durum wheat genotypes. different characteristics such as grain weight per spike, plant biomass, 100 grain weight, free proline content in leaves, and percentage of cell membrane damage were studied in greenhouse and laboratory conditions. genotypes were sown under normal irrigation and moisture stress conditions. in stress ...

water deficit is one of the most common constraints to crop productivity in the world and iran. in order to study effect of drought stress on morphologic traits, yield and yield components of 34 hybrids of corn, an experiment was carried out based of complete randomized block design with three replication under f.c. irrigation and drought stress in khorasan razavi agricultural research and natu...

introduction drought stress is one of the most important abiotic stresses all around the world. the aim of breeding studies and breeding for resistance to drought is that breeders seek to identify varieties and genetic resources to drought resistant and comparison of drought resistance among the varieties and the introduction of superior varieties to farmers. drought or imbalance between supply...

In order to identify drought tolerant chickpea genotypes, an experiment was conducted in the west of Iran, during 2007-2009 cropping seasons. Several selection indices were used to illustrate genotypic differences in response to drought stress. The results of combined analysis of variance showed that year, genotype, stress conditions and their interaction effects were highly significant. Correl...
