objective: yield components and genetic contribution have the most important in final yield and breeding programs of crop plants. for this purpose, 20 varieties of grapevines with russia origin were evaluated in urmia and takestan research station (under full irrigation and drought stress). methods: twenty grapevine genotypes were evaluated in urmia and takestan research station (under full irr...

Individuals of the same genotype do not have the same phenotype for quantitative traits when reared under common macro-environmental conditions, a phenomenon called micro-environmental plasticity. Genetic variation in micro-environmental plasticity is assumed in models of the evolution of phenotypic variance, and is important in applied breeding and personalized medicine. Here, we quantified ge...

abstract to study the effect of water stress in rapeseed cultivars at the seedling stage, 10 rapeseed cultivars were evaluated at three irrigation levels [normal irrigation (control) and irrigation after depletion of 60 and 85% of available soil water]. analysis of variance showed considerable variation among cultivars. water stress reduced all of the studied morphological characteristics, espe...

This study was carried out to compare agro-morphological traits and nutritive value of 25 tall fescue (Festuca arundinacea) ecotypes grown in Tehran, Iran. The experiments were carried out in a split plot design during 2016-2018 growing seasons. The results showed that there was a significant genetic variation in existing germplasm. The highest heritability was related to dry forage yi...
