Heritability estimates of traits assist breeders in optimizing cultivar development and can help predict gain from selection breeding programs. Narrow-sense heritabilities were measured agronomic glycoside concentration four elite stevia (Stevia rebaudiana Bertoni) populations using half-sib family analysis. Gain at 20% intensity was estimated for morphological, yield, traits. Experiments condu...

two-spotted spider mite, tetranychus urticae koch. is one of the most harmful pest of common bean in most areas of iran, including lorestan province. the appropriate unit and universe sampling of mite population were investigated in common bean fields in borujerd, dorud and azna in 2008. the results showed that samples should be taken from top, middle and bottom of the plant height. in addition...

objective: in order to study the effect of solopotasse fertilizer on yield and essential oil of cumin medicinal plant. methods: a experiment in randomized complete block design with three replications conducted in kermam city, iran, in 2013. solopotasse fertilizer in four levels (0, 50, 100 and 150 kg/h) investigated. plant height, number of umbrella per plant, number of seed per umbrella, 1000...

'Dwarf stature' maize variety offers promises to withstand unfavorable growth environments of Kharif season. But, for developing such variety, dwarf stature inbred lines must be available. Here, twenty-four F3 populations of white maize were evaluated though assessment of their genetic variability, heritability, and character association for selection of dwarf stature promising lines based on y...

Rice yield potential was greatly improved since the green revolution, but the occurrence of lodging often restricts the achievement of potential yield. Currently, it is still obscure about how the lodging-related traits change along with the genetic improvement in yield potential of rice, although much efforts have been devoted to study the trend of and physiological mechanisms underlying chang...

SUMMARY An improvement in the identification of pulmonary tuberculosis among residents of common lodging houses has proved possible through the close cooperation of the doctor providing primary medical care, the mass miniature radiography services, and the wardens of the hostel where the proposed visit is to take place. Renewed interest has recently been expressed about the single homeless and ...
