in order to evaluate the physiological indices in relation to the screening of spring safflower genotypes for drought tolerance and productivity, seed and oil yields and yield components were measured for five genotypes including local arak, local esfahan, sina, kh23 – 57 and goldasht. the study was conducted in a loam soil in east azarbaijan, iran, during three successive years (2005-2007)...

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...

seed and oil yields, its components and two physiological indices including leaf canopy temperature (tc) and relative water content (rwc) were evaluated in two spring oilseed rape cultivars (rgs 300 and hyola 401) under non-stressed and water deficit imposed during stem elongation, flowering and seed filing stages. the experiments were conducted as a factorial consisted of 2 factors including i...

safflower as an original crop in iran has high adaptability to different environmental conditions. iran is one of the original areas of safflower as a drought and salinity tolerant crop. therefor, safflower can be a suitable alternative crop for cultivation in marginal areas. the aims of research were studying the late season drought effects on seed and oil yields and its components of fall saf...

expansion of oilseeds cultivation plays an important role in provision of the required edible oils for a country's population. iran is one of the origins safflower as a drought and salt tolerant crop, and therefore, it can be counted on as a suitable alternative crop for cultivation in marginal areas. the aims followed in the present research were on evaluation and selection of late season...

in order to have a successful breeding program, it is important to determine the relationship among the traits. this study was conducted at research farm of isfahan university of technology to evaluate relationships among some of the agronomic and physiological traits and grain yield of ten bread wheat cultivars in optimum and stress moisture (irrigation after 70±3 and 130±3 mm evaporation from...

seed and oil yields, their components, and the relationships among trait performance were determined in 25genotypes of winter type oilseed rape (brassica napus l.). the experiment was carried out at the agricultural and natural resources research center of east azerbaijan, iran, in two consecutive growing seasons 2009-10 and 2010- 11. significant differences were observed in plant height, numbe...
