An experiment was conducted to investigate the heterosis in 12 F1 hybrids of durum wheat using agronomic and morphological traits. Parents were selected according to the estimated genetic distances based on the results of a two-year field experiment, which were then crossed to produce F1 hybrids. Twenty-three genotypes (including 11 parents and 12 hybrids) were evaluated using a randomized co...

The growth and fluorescence parameters of chlorophyll in four corn hybrids including two sweet (K.S.C. 403 and K.S.C. 404) and two grain hybrids (S.C. 500 and S.C. 700) were evaluated in response to Fe and Zn nutrition in a nutrient solution culture. This study was conducted in a randomized complete block design with a factorial arrangement with three replications at the Soilless Culture Resear...

In order to study the morphological characteristics and yield of leafy corn hybrids, and comparie them with those of commercial hybrids, an experiment was conducted in the research field of Agricultural College, Tarbiat Modares University in 2005. A complete block design was used with three replications. Hybrids were obtained from crosses between leafy inbred lines and also commercial inbred li...

Regarding the insufficient water resources, developing of cultivars with high tolerance to water deficit can be very effective to optimize water consumption. To identify maize hybrids with higher tolerance to water deficit, 52 single cross hybrids were field evaluated according to a randomized complete block design with three replications in each irrigation regime. The hybrids were produced thr...

To facilitate the interpretation of data from a genotype by environment experiment (GE), a cluster method is proposed to group genotypics according to their response to the environments especially when the GE interaction is large. The interaction structure of two-way classification data often can be identified if the data stratified into homogeneous subsets. In this paper four GE interaction cl...
