water deficit is an important factor limiting crop growth all over the world. in order to evaluate genetic variation, heritability and the interrelationship between agronomic traits, twenty chickpea genotypes were cultivated in two separated randomized complete block experiments with three replications under normal irrigated and rainfed conditions. the experiments were carried out at the agricu...

In the current study, a set of 96 recombinant inbred lines (RIL) at F8, derived from a cross between two varieties, Anbarbu (sensitive to drought stress) and Sepidroud (tolerant to drought stress) were used. The experiment was performed at Gonbad Kavous located in the Golestan province of Iran in 2010–2011 using two augmented designs at normal and stress conditions, separately. The RIL populati...

introduction obtaining varieties with acceptable yield and tolerant to different arid and semi-arid climate condition of iran is an important goal in canola breeding programs. selection of genotypes base on one or more traits without regarding to correlation between them, could biases the expected results. therefore, identifying of genetic correlation among traits especially in environmental st...

in order to evaluate the effect of drought stress on grain yield and its components of fennel accessions, a field experiment was conducted as a split plot based on complete randomized block design with three replications. this experiment was conducted in research farm of agricultural faculty of zanjan university in 2012. in this study water stress in two levels included control and drought stre...

drought stress as the most important abiotic stress plays a significant role in reduction of crops yield. this study was conducted at six agricultural experimental stations (karadj, ardebil, arak, mashhad, jolgerokh and miandoab) during 2006-08 cropping seasons. experiments were carried out under normal irrigation and post-anthesis drought stress conditions using 18 wheat genotypes. experimenta...

this study was conducted to determine the effect of cliniptilolite natural zeolite on deficit irrigation stress tolerance on maize cultivar ksc704. the experiment was laid out as a factorial design based on randomized complete block with three replications at seed and plant improvement institute, karaj in 2012. four irrigation levels, including irrigation after 70, 95, 120 and 145 mm cumulative...

to investigate the relationship between different traits, discover factors affecting this relationship and to identify components of seed yield in cultivated and wild safflower genotypes, this investigation was conducted at isfahan university of technology research farm under two different water regimes during 2008. significant differences were observed between genotypes belonged to the two spe...
