To evaluate the effects of drought stress by withholding of irrigation during reproductive stages and foliar application of micronutrients (Zn, Mn and B) on seed yiled and oil quality, an experiment was carried out as split plot arrangements in randomized complete block design with three replications at Safiabad Agricultural and Natural Resources Research and Education Center, Dezful, Iran, in ...

In order to evaluate dry matter remobilization to seeds in the winter type rapeseed cultivars grown under drought stress conditions, an experiment was carried out using a randomized complete block design arranged in a split plot with three replicates in Shahre-Qods, Iran, in the 2011-2012 growing season. Irrigation treatments including control (irrigation after 80 mm evaporation from evaporatio...

In this research, the possibility of applying selection index of ideal genotype (SIIG) technique for identify tolerate genotypes using the different drought tolerance indices be amended. The experiment was conducted as split plot based on randomized complete block design with three replications at the experimental farm of agricultural research institute and natural resources, Yazd, Iran in 2011...

This experiment was conducted to investigate of drought effect on some physiological parameters and amino acids accumulation in two canola cultivars (SLM046 and Cooper; tolerance and sensitive to water stress, respectively). The experiment was carried out during two growth phase (stem elongation and flowering stage) using irrigation levels consisting of irrigation after 80 mm evaporation from c...

Breeding and production of drought tolerant cultivars for arid and semi-arid area is very important. The present experiment was carried out to evaluate the effects of drought stress on seed yield and yield components of oilseed rape as well as identification of high yielding and drought stress tolerant genotypes. Eighteen new winter oilseed rape lines and commercial cultivars were evaluated und...

Drought stress is the most important limiting factor in crop plants including maize (Zea mays L.), which is the third important world crop after wheat and rice. Water deficiency at different growth stages affects maize yield differently. To examine the response of four maize hybrids to drought stress at different growth stages, a field experiment was carried out as a split plot based on complet...

 In order to study the effects of bio fertilizers application on quantitative and qualitative yield, proline content and activity of some antioxidant enzymes in sunflower (Helianthus annus L.  var.  Urofelor) in different irrigation withholding levels, a factorial experiment was conducted based on randomized complete block design with three replications in research farm of faculty of Agricultur...
