one of the soil and water management practices in order to delay drought stress under water deficit condition; is superabsorbent application. in order to study the effect of  superabsorbent application on yield and yield components, two antioxidant enzymes activity and water relation of two canola hybrids under terminal drought stress condition, a research was carried out in ahvaz climate condi...

terminal drought stress during grain filling period has recently become more common in the semiarid mediterranean regions, where wheat (triticum aestivum) is grown as an important winter cereal crop. the objective of this experiment was to study the effect of terminal drought stress on grain yield, gas exchange variables, and some physiological traits of nine bread wheat cultivars. an experimen...

in countries such as iran which will be faced water deficit as the main challenge in the future and the food production is going to be dependent to water recourses, wheat water-deficit tolerant and adapted genotypes release is one of the most important strategies under such a condition. in order to study the adaptation and terminal water deficit stress tolerance, fifteen bread wheat lines and c...

to evaluate canola cultivars response to physiological characteristics and grain yield end seasonal drought stress in weather condition of ahvaz, farm experiments were done at research farm of khuzestan agriculture and natural resources center. during 2007-2008 and 2008-2009 crop years. farm test comprised drought stress was done as split plot form with randomize complete block design with four...

drought causes significant reductions in crop productivity in many parts of the world, including iran. identifying genotypes tolerant to drought stress is therefore one of the foremost goals of crop breeding programs. this study investigated the effect of terminal drought stress on yield and yield components of new winter rapeseed lines, and identified new winter rapeseed lines tolerant to term...

drought stress due to water deficit and terminal temperatures is a serious problem in agriculture, and it is one of the most important factors contributing to crop yield loss. to evaluate drought tolerance of barley, 12 advanced barley genotypes were studied in two rainfed and irrigated conditions (in a subtropical region, gachsaran) in 2006-2007 in a rcb design with three replications. results...

knowledge of traits associated with drought tolerance would be useful for developing breeding materials fortarget environments. to study these traits, 119 spring durum wheat breeding lines (bls) from the international maize and wheat improvement center (cimmyt) were evaluated along with local checks (one modern cultivar and three landraces) in three experiments under terminal and non-terminal d...
