this experiment was conducted to screening phenolic acids in root exudates of three rice cultivars (neda, taichung and sepidrood) by high performance liquid chromatography (hplc) method and to evaluate allelopathic potential of these cultivars on growth characteristics of barnyardgrass weed. the experiment was arranged in factorial based on completely randomized design with four replications in...

to determine the general and specific combining ability of the parental lines, five restorers ‎and four male sterility lines were selected as lines and testers respectively. nine parental lines were ‎crossed in a line × tester crossing system in year 2005 and the eight f1 hybrids and their six ‎parents in randomized complete blocks design (rcbd‏ (‏in two replications for yield, yield ‎component...

Th is research was carried out to identify quantitative trait loci (QTLs) controlling yield and yield components in rice using 196 F2:4 lines derived from a cross between two rice varieties of indica, Sepidrood and Gharib. Quantitative trait loci analysis using composite interval mapping was carried out by 105 SSR and 111 AFLP markers. Results showed that 8 chromosomes contain 28 regions (QTLs)...

Drought stress is one of the important factors that restrict crop production in the world. This study was conducted to investigate defense gene expression in response to drought stress, and also to evaluate the drought tolerance and its mechanism in rice cultivars based on randomized complete block design in two separate environments (drought stress and non-stress). The rice cultivars used incl...

low efficiency of callus induction and green-plant regeneration have limited the application of anther culture in breeding programs. this study was conducted to determine the inheritance of callus induction and plant regeneration in rice (oryza sativa) anther culture. ten genotypes drived from a five-parent diallel mating set contain khazar, sepidrood, hashemi, alikazemi and nematt were evaluat...
