in order to study the effect of different nitrogen fertilizer rates and source-sink limitation treatments on yield and yield component of contrast rice (oryza sativa l.) cultivars, a field experiment was carried out in the rice research institute of iran-deputy of mazandaran (amol) during 2006. a split split experiment in the basis of randomized complete block design with 3 replications and 3 f...

n order to investigate the effect of nitrogen fertilizer rates and top dressed on nitrogen remobilization in different rice cultivars, a field experiment was conducted in the rice research institute of iran (amol) during 2006. a split split experiment in the basis of randomized complete block design with 3 replications and 3 factors were used in which fertilizer rates in 3 levels (including 46,...

Aphelenchoides besseyi is a seed-borne plant parasitic nematode and is widely distributed in most rice growing areas. Application of resistant cultivars requires the identification of resistance source, which can then be included in breeding programs to improve the local rice cultivars. Fourteen Iranian rice genotypes including improved and local varieties were evaluated for resistance to A. be...

cold stress is one of the most important environmental stresses for rice especially in temperate and high elevation areas. in present study, the effect of different temperatures, as the main plot, including 25 (control), 10 and 5°c on 12 rice cultivars (including champa yasouj, gerde, lenjan askari, kaamfirouz, kohsar, shafagh, domsiya mamassani, dular, gharib, hasan saraei, mosa tarom and 304)...

Marker aided selection (MAS) can be used for monitoring the presence or absence of genes in breeding populations and can be combined with conventional breeding approaches. In this study, crosses between two high yielding cultivars, Neda and Nemat with local aromatic varieties Sang tarom and Tarom deylamani were made followed by phenotypic selection for desirable individual plants in F2 populati...
