wheat grain yield is adversely affected by post-anthesis drought stress conditions in most wheat growing areas of iran. to evaluate the effect of late drought stress on wheat cultivars, a field experiment was conducted as split plot in a completely randomized block design with four replications at experimental farm of collage of agriculture, shiraz university during 2009-2010 growing season. ir...

Scarcity of water for irrigation is an alarming issue of Pakistan and the problem is being magnified rapidly with the passage of time. Shortage of water is thus, a limiting factor in increasing per unit area wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) yield that is staple food of most of the people. Eventually, the gap between production and consumption is widening day by day and Pakistan is now suffering fro...

A study was conducted to evaluate the effects of liming on chemical properties of wheat field soils and yield of wheat in Ranisankail soil series of Bangladesh. There were eight treatments of liming material applied from dolomite (CaCO3.MgCO3). Yield and yield components of wheat were recorded at harvest and the grain and straw were analyzed for P, S, Ca and Mg contents. The post harvest soils ...

fusarium head blight (fhb) is an important disease in wheat worldwide that reduces grain yield, quality as well as contaminates grains to the mycotoxins. thirty spring wheat genotypes including 28 bread wheat and two durum wheat genotypes were evaluated for fhb under a randomized complete block design with three replications. grain yield and its components were evaluated by using two environmen...

a three-year field experiment (2004-2007) was conducted on a silty clay loam soil at tajarak research station of hamedan to determine proper grain drill for wheat in hamedan dryland areas. in this study, three grain drills including: hamedani barzegar; sahalan kesht; and kesht gostar with wheat seed broadcasting and disking were used. the experiment was a randomized complete block design with f...
