A study was carried out to assess the genetic variability and association among yield attributing traits in 60 different safflower genotypes over six environments. The pooled analysis of variance (ANOVA) revealed that all attributes had a considerable degree variation.The parameters phenotypic coefficients variation (PCV) higher than genotypic (GCV)for characteristics evaluated, indicating expe...

safflower oil seed has high adaptability to different kinds of abiotic stresses such as drought and salinity. the aim of this study was to evaluate the effects of drought stress at different phenological stages on relative water content (rwc), leaf canopy temperature, seed yield and its components in spring types of safflower. the study was carried out in east azarbaijan research center for agr...

The experiment was conducted during Kharif 2020 and 2021 at Jawaharlal Nehru Krishi Vishwavidyalaya, Jabalpur, Madhya Pradesh, India. A total of 103 accessions including 03 checks were assessed observations recorded for ten traits viz., days to flower initiation, 50 % flowering, maturity, plant height (cm), number primary branches per plant, secondary capitula seeds capitula, 1000 seed weight (...

Although there has been much experimental work on floral traits that are under selection from mutualists and antagonists, selection by abiotic environmental factors on flowers has been largely ignored. Here we test whether pollen susceptibility to rain damage could have played a role in the evolution of the reproductive architecture of Davidia involucrata, an endemic in the mountains of western...

Seasonal dynamics of the capitula infested by Dictyotrypeta sp. and Rhynencina spilogaster (Steyskal) (Diptera: Tephritidae) was evaluated throughout the flowering cycle of their host plant the sunflower, Smallanthus maculatus (Cavanilles) Robinson (Asterales: Asteraceae). In central Veracruz, Mexico, along 16 consecutive weeks, a total of 1,017 mature capitula were collected, recording the pre...

The main source of seed filling results from the photosynthesis green tissue closest to sinks in capitula. To evaluate role different leaf strata and capitula yield its components Safflower genotypes, a field study was performed as factorial experiment based on RCBD 3 replicates East Azarbaijan Agricultural Natural Resources Research Education Center 2008. used factors this were: two genotypes ...
