objective: wheat is the most important crop in iran. self sufficiency in wheat production is one of the economic and food safety policies in the country. in spite of the efforts which have been made in this area, the mean of wheat yield in iran is less than its world average. methods: in order to identifying of the high yielding wheat lines with optimal characteristics and to determine the trai...

A field experiment was conducted during kharif season of 2010 and 2011 to investigate the optimization of nitrogen levels under different age of seedlings transplanted on growth, chlorophyll content, yield and economics of hybrid rice. Fifteen treatment combinations consisted of three levels of seedlings age (10, 20 and 30 days) and five levels of nitrogen viz. N0, N50, N100, N150 and N200 kg h...

Background: In Mediterranean climate, drought and heat stress are the main constraints for cereal production under rainfed conditions. these conditions, selection of suitable genotypes is crucial to improve production. Methods: 20 advanced triticale lines were evaluated semi-arid conditions in Setif (Algeria) during 2019/2020 season using agronomic, morphological physiological traits. Result: T...

The International Crops Research Institute for the Semi-Arid Tropics conserves 335 accessions of Pennisetum glaucum subsp. monodii originated in 13 countries. In the present study, the collection was evaluated and assessed for diversity and geographical gaps. A wide variation was observed in the collection for total tillers per plant (16 to 609), productive tillers per plant (12 to 368), leaf l...

breeding programs strategies depends on genetical mechanism of selection traits. in the present research, generation mean analysis with joint scaling test was performed to determine the gene action. f1, f2 and f3 generations, derived from roushan and kavir cross along with their parents were sown in a partial lattice design with two replications under stress condition at the research field of s...

introduction drought stress as the most important abiotic stress plays an important role in yield reduction of crops worldwide. considering the extends and problems caused by the moisture stress, agronomic and breeding strategies in reducing yield loss are essential. in this regard, the identification and selection of effective characteristics of wheat under drought stress in increasing yield, ...

The research was applied at Station No. 1 belonging to the College of Agriculture, University Anbar, determine most appropriate traits for improving barley grain yield during season 2021-2022 by designing randomized complete blocks in split plots with three replications, purpose studying path way coefficient and its components five cultivars (Samir , Aksad 617, Amal, Buraq Abba 265) seed rates ...
