in order to evaluate drought tolerance of cultivars and advanced grain sorghum lines, an experiment was conducted as split-plot on randomized complete blocks design with three replications at experimental field of seed and plant improvement institute, karaj in 2009. three levels of irrigation regimes including normal irrigation (ir0=60 mm), moderate stress (ir2=120 mm) and sever stress (ir3=180...

mihan is a new bread wheat cultivar originated from the cross between iranian cultivar barakat with the chinese cultivar 90-zhong 87 at karaj research station in 1995-96 cropping season. the f1 plants were grown at karaj in 1996-97 cropping season, furthermore f2-f6 populations and regional preliminary yield nursery were evaluated at ardebil agricultural research station during 1997-2003 croppi...

water deficit stress is the most important environmental constraint for growth, yield and productivity of crops, including the oil seed crops. this study was aimed at studying the influence of differing irrigation régimes on growth, chlorophyll , proline and some antioxidants content along with grain yield, yield components and oil content of sesame genotypes using a 4-replicate split plot rand...

to investigate the effect of supplemental irrigation and nitrogen fertilizer on kernel weight, test weight and wheat grain yield under dryland conditions, a two-year field experiment was conducted in the research farm of college of agriculture, shiraz university during 2004-2005. five irrigation regime including dryland conditions, irrigation at stem elongation, booting, flowering and grain fil...

scarce water resources is a worldwide problem, still for iran, a country predominated by an arid and semi-arid climate, water limitation is more severe than for many other areas of the world. a field experiment was conducted to investigate the impact of irrigation regimes on growth, grain yield and irrigation water use efficiency in maize (zea maize l.) in 2006 at the research farm, college of ...
