in order to evaluate some morphological traits of durum wheat genotypes, 18 elite lines selected from advanced regional durum wheat yield trials. these materials along, with two checks dena (durum wheat) and parsi (bread wheat) were examined using rcb design with three replications at isfahan research station in two consecutive cropping season. during the cropping season some trials such as the...

wheat is grown on 6.2 million hectares under different agr-climate conditions in iran. of 6.2 million hectares irrigated wheat, khazar warm humid climate regions (gorgan, mazandaran and moghan) with 350 thousand hectares are the most important wheat growing areas of the country. productive and rich lands, high rainfalls and favorable temperature and light in these regions provide good condition...

knowledge of traits associated with drought tolerance would be useful for developing breeding materials fortarget environments. to study these traits, 119 spring durum wheat breeding lines (bls) from the international maize and wheat improvement center (cimmyt) were evaluated along with local checks (one modern cultivar and three landraces) in three experiments under terminal and non-terminal d...

line n-78-14 with the pedigree of sha4/chil cm91099-25y-om-3n-1y-oyz-o10m-oy-3m-o10 was obtained from cimmyt, mexico in 1996 through high rainfall wheat screening nursery. preliminary evaluation of the genotypes in international nursery in gorgan and sari research stations during 1996-97 cropping season, resulted in selection of this line as one of the most high yielding genotypes. selected lin...

line s-80-18 (deberia) a spring bread wheat line with pedigree of hd160/5/tob/cno/23854/3/nai60//tit/son64/4/lr/son64 was selected from the high temperature wheat yield trial, received from cimmyt and evaluated at zabol research station in 1994-95 cropping season. as a superior line, it was advanced to the preliminary yield trial at zabol station in 1995-96 cropping season. due to high grain yi...
