The efficiency of a breeding program depends mainly on the direction of the correlation between yield and its components and the relative importance of each component involved in contributing to seed yield. The objective of this study was to detection of traits affecting canola yield by multivariate analysis, at Khozestan Province, Iran, in the agricultural year in 2015–2016. A randomized compl...

To investigate the effect of drought stress and plant density on yield and yield components of maize KSc 301 hybrid, a two-year study (2007-2008) was carried out in Varamin Agricultural Research Center by using strip split plot randomized based on complete block design in three replications. Four water stress levels (before flowering, during flowering and grain filling stage and no stress) were...

Recently, application of biofertilizers has been introduced as a new strategy in crop nutrition. In order to investigate the effect of application methods of biofertilizer in combination with nitrogen levels on yield and yield components of weed-infested triticale a field experiment was conducted at College of Agriculture and Natural Resources of Darab, Shiraz University in 2013-14 growing seas...

In order to study the effects of different levels of nitrogen fertilizer and plant density on grain yield and its components in sunflower, an experiment was conducted using 'Record' cultivar at the Research Farm of College of Agriculture, Isfahan University of Technology in 1996. Four levels of nitrogen (0, 75, 150 and 225 kg/ha) and four plant densities (65000, 75000, 85000 and 95000 plants/ha...

The interaction of genotype × environment creates complications in yield prediction and is a challenge for agronomy and plant breeding programs. To evaluate grain yield stability and genotype × environment interaction for 18 local and exotic grain sorghum cultivars, lines, and hybrids, a field experiment was conducted using randomized complete block design with three replications in four region...

Identifying selection indices is the most important step of a breeding project that aims to improve grain yield. The definition of the selection index is usually done by evaluating the variables in multivariate statistical methods. In the present study, the relationship between grain yield and its components in bread wheat genotypes was determined by multivariate statistical methods. The experi...

the present study aimed at investigating how different news agencies using the concept of legitimation/delegitimation represent the same event differently. to this end, van leeuwens (2008) legitimatory/delegitimatory framework was applied to the data gleaned from the iranian state-run news agency fars news, british state-run news agency bbc, and also american state-run news agency voa. the resu...

In order to evaluate intra-genomic variation and regression analysis of grain yield and its components using two wheat substitution lines series including substitution lines of ‘Timstein’ and ‘Red Egyptian’ into genetic background of ‘Chinese Spring’ and their parents in a randomized complete block design with four replications under water-stress and non-stress conditions in a greenhouse at 201...

there is no doubt that human being needs to become integrated with industry and industry needs to be progressed, daily. on the other hand, serious events in industrial units specially in oil industries has been shown that such damages and events are industry related ones. the consequence of such events and damages which resulted in chemical and poisoned explosions and loss of life and property ...
