A 3- years (2015, 2016 and 2017) field study was carried out at National Wheat Research Program, Bhirahawa, Rupandehi, Nepal to evaluate the influence of crop residues and nitrogen levels on rice. The experiment was conducted in split plot design with three replications. Main plots were two crop residue levels (with crop residues of 30 cm wheat stubble and without crop residues) and sub plots c...

abstract in order to study of relationship between timing and duration of phenological events and grain yield of wheat plants, an experiment was performed at moghan college of agriculture and natural resources-university of mohaghegh ardabili research farm during 2010-2011. the plant materials (81 wheat cultivars) were evaluated using a simple lattice design with two replications under irrigate...

rived from Amigo have been recognized as the most favorable for yield (Lukaszewski, 1990; William and The confounding effect of wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) genetic Mujeeb-Kazi, 1993). T1BL·1RS resulted in higher grain background has been addressed as the major factor in inconsistent yield, kernel weight, and above-ground biomass (Carver agronomic performances of 1RS translocation. The objectiv...

source limitation during grain filling is important for both management and breeding strategies of grain crops. there is little information on the sensitivity of grain yield to various source-sink ratios in various wheat (triticum aestivum) cultivars. the objective of the current study was to evaluate the response of grain yield as well as yield components to different source-sink ratios during...

introduction crop sequencing with a particular arrangement in a 2-3 or more yearly period is known as crop rotation. considering crop diversity and soil fertility crop rotation is essential because it prevents soil degradation which is a result of sequential cultivation of one crop causing nutrients imbalance, exudation of different compounds and antibiotics from crop roots. determining crops s...

At percent, Zn stress tolerance using novel genetic resources is an important mitigation strategy for plant breeding. In this study, thirty-five durum wheat genotypes with different growth habits were evaluated under normal (non-stress) and Zn deficient stress during the 2014-15 cropping season. A total of ten Zn stress tolerance indices including stress tolerance index (STI), relative zinc-def...

Wheat grain yield consists of three components: spikes per plant, grains per spike (i.e. head or ear), and grain weight; and the grains per spike can be dissected into two subcomponents: spikelets per spike and grains per spikelet. An increase in any of these components will directly contribute to grain yield. Wheat morphology biology tells that a wheat plant has no lateral meristem that forms ...

Proteomic approaches were applied in four grain developmental stages of the Chinese bread wheat Yunong 201 and its ethyl methanesulfonate (EMS) mutant line Yunong 3114. 2-DE and tandem MALDI-TOF/TOF-MS analyzed proteome characteristics during middle and late grain development of the Chinese bread wheat Yunong 201 and its EMS mutant line Yunong 3114 with larger grain sizes. We identified 130 dif...
