iran is widely drought prone, considering its semi-arid climate. eleven wheat cultivars differing in yield potential and drought resistance were employed to determine the possible relationship among grain filling rate and duration, stem reserves remobilization and grain yield under either irrigated (ir) or non-irrigated (nir) conditions at gerizeh research station in sanandaj for a duration of ...

wheat stem reserves can be an important contributor to grain particularly under decrease in the source strength through defoliation. the aim of this research was to study ability remobilization as important contribution on yield stability under drought conditions and to investigate their intrinsic compensatory mechanism in the wheat cultivars with different degrees of resource limitations under...

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,...

drought stress is a major factor limiting crop production. investigation of physiological characteristics related to drought tolerance and crop production may be useful in selecting drought tolerant cultivars as well as in improving crop yield. two drought tolerant (azar2 & back cross roshan) and two drought susceptible (marvdast & shiraz) cultivars were investigated in both greenhouse and fiel...

to investigate the effect of nitrogen rate and split form of application on dry matter remobilization among different rice cultivars, a field experiment was carried out in the rice research institute of iran (amol) – during 2005. a split–split experiment on the basis of a randomized complete block design with 3 replications involving 3 factors was employed in which fertilizer rates (100, 150 an...
