Abstract Eleven wheat cultivars were evaluated at 10-day intervals, beginning from anthesis, under irrigated and drought stress conditions during 2006-2007. The effects of irrigation, genotype and date of harvest were significant for most of the studied characters. Water deficit decreased pre-and post-anthesis assimilation rate, grain weight per spike, grain number per spike and 1000 grain wei...

     Triticum boeoticum wild wheat is a remarkable gene pool to environmental stress resistance. It is one of the most valuable species of the Triticeae tribe for improving wheat cultivars to moisture-stress. This research was carried out to assess the changes and responses of different traits of 10 accessions of Triticum boeoticum under non-stress and imposed moisture stress conditions in 2015...

the effects of an azotobacter chrococum isolate (strain ag11) and vermicompost and their combined effects on a rain-fed winter wheat (var. zagros) nutrient uptake and growth and soil water content were investigated with a farm trial.  the dry matter yield was determined in 5 occasions. gravimetric soil water content, soil microbial respiration and the number of azotobacter were determined at sa...

terminal heat stress in mediterranean climates like ahwaz is reduced wheat yield. in order to study effect of terminal heat stress on yield and yield components of 20 spring bread wheat cultivars, an experiment was conducted in ramin university of agricultural and natural resources, ahwaz in 2007-2008. the experimental design was stripe block design in randomized complete block design with thre...

Farming activities practiced on many Australian soils have resulted in substantial losses of soil organic matter (SOM), nutrient loss, soil structural degradation and declines in cereal yield and quality. Field trials, consisting of a legume or fallow phase followed by three wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) crops, were established on a degraded Ferric Luvisol (Red Earth) soil in New South Wales to ...

drought is the most restricting factor in agricultural production in arid and semi-arid regions. this research was conducted on 19 facultative and winter wheat genotypes grown under normal irrigation (n), early post-anthesis (s1), and late post-anthesis (s2) drought stress conditions. the experiments were conducted at karadj, arak, and jolgehrokh agricultural research stations in iran, during 2...
