In order to evaluate the effect of sowing date and cultivar on accumulated heat unit, phenology and yield of maize (Zea mays L.), a two-year field study was carried out at the Agricultural Research Station of College of Agriculture, Shiraz University, Shiraz, Iran. Treatments consisted of five maize hybrids (SC704, Hido, BC677, BC666 and NS540) and five planting dates (May 15, June 1, June15, J...

In order to investigate the effects of sowing date on yield and some agronomic traits of six forage maize hybrids, two experiments were conducted in 2009 in two locations including Rasht and Fuman. The experimental design was randomized complete blocks with factorial arrangement and three replications. Treatments consisted of three levels of sowing date (31 May, 13 and 26 June) and six maize hy...

In this study, the an AMMI analysis (additive the main effects and the multiplicative interaction effects) was used to evaluate the yield stability of nine oats genotypes (4 Canadian cultivars and 5 Turkish breeding lines) and Makoi barley (as ckeck) in the 6 environments (3 dates of planting of Oct.12, Oct.31 and Nov.21 and 3 sowing densities of 300, 375 and 450 seeds/m2). The experiment was c...
