drought stress is considered as one of the main important factors reducing field crop yield, thus leading researchers to study the related physiological characteristics may reduce drought effects. this experiment was conducted in research farm of seed and plant improvement institute (spii) in karadj, arak and jolgeh rokh for three cropping seasons (2008-2011) to evaluate drought tolerance of br...

Castor is one of neglected African oil crops with little research attention in Nigeria. In the present research, eighty-six castor genotypes were evaluated at three locations in Niger State, Nigeria. The aim was to estimate the extent of genetic variability and also to examine the associations among the seed yield and its components. The treatments were laid out in an Alpha Lattice Design with ...

abstract in order to investigate the response of two species of p. ovata and p. psyllium to water deficit. the experiment was conducted during 2009 growing seasons in the agriculture research station ferdowsi of mashhad. for this purpose a split plot experiment based on complete randomized block design with three replications was used. four irrigation levels (4000, 3000, 2000, 1000 m3/ha) alloc...

this experiment was conducted using a randomized complete block design with three ‎replications with 10 barley cultivars in dryland research station of northern khorasan (shirvan) ‎in 2004-2005 growing season. results indicated that there was significant differences among the ‎lines in terms of the stand percentage, days to emergence, days to heading, days to maturity, plant ‎height, number of ...

to study the yield and change the attributes associated with it, the field experiments were conducted at the gorgan university of agricultural sciences research farm, gorgan, iran in the growing seasons of 2007-2008 and 2008-2009 under well-watered conditions. the 16 cultivars were sown in a randomized complete block design with three replications. the results showed that during breeding activi...

in order to study genetic variation and relationship between traits, 615 accessions of local bread wheat from wheat collection of national plant gene bank of iran were evaluated. seeds of the accessions were planted in 2.5 meter long rows in an observatory design and 17 agro-morphological traits were measured. grain yield of 5 spikes, number of tillers and number of seeds per spike were of high...

to investigate the influence of salinity and calcium (ca) on some properties of plantago ovata, a pot factorialexperiment based on randomized complete block design with three replicates was conducted in jiroft, south of kermanprovince, iran. three salinity levels of 0, 100 and 200 mm nacl and ca levels of 0, 5 and 10 mm calcium nitrate wereapplied as the first and second factors, respectively. ...
