cumin (cuminum cyminum l.) is one of the most important cultivable medicinal plants in iran and today, it is the second most popular spice in the world after black pepper. it is essential to know the relationships between yield and its components in cumin breeding programs. therefore, different multivariate statistical analysis was performed on plant characters in cumin to determine the relatio...

A study was carried out to assess the genetic variability and association among yield attributing traits in 60 different safflower genotypes over six environments. The pooled analysis of variance (ANOVA) revealed that all attributes had a considerable degree variation.The parameters phenotypic coefficients variation (PCV) higher than genotypic (GCV)for characteristics evaluated, indicating expe...

Eight faba bean (Vicia faba L.) genotypes were grown at lowlands of the west-Mediterranean region of Turkey in order to estimate the broad-sense heritability for plant height, number of stems and pods per plant, seed yield, biological yield, 100-seed weight, days to flowering and maturity. The heritability for plant height, number of stems and pods per plant, seed yield, biological yield, 100-s...

chickpea fall planting may increase seed yield in comparison with spring planting due to the increased duration of growing period and increased water use efficiency. the most important problem with fall planting is the danger of occurrence of plant death and decreased seed yield quantitatively and qualitatively due to the cold stress. the major strategy in breeding program is development of gen...

in order to evaluate phenological and morphological responses of cold tolerant chickpea genotypes to entezary culture in mashhad conditions, 81 cold tolerant chickpea accessions were cultured during growing year 2006-2007 in research farm of faculty of agriculture, ferdowsi university of mashhad. the experiment was carried out in lattice design with three replications including 9 blocks per rep...

Sesame is an important oilseed crop in India. To determine potential traits and selection criteria for yield improvement, ninety sesame (Sesamum indicum L.) genotypes were studied in a randomized complete block design with three replications. The data collected on 13 characters were subjected to three different analyses. In variability analysis, high heritability was accompanied by a high genet...

the aim of this study was evaluation of some of characters, estimation of their heritability and their relationship in 104 recombinant inbred lines population of durum wheat under pot and field conditions. the inbred lines, their parents and control genotypes were evaluated in completely randomized design in 3 replications at pot study and in augment design at field condition. analysis of varia...

in order to determine the relationship between the variables grain yield and biological yield and some important agronomic traits, and to find the direct and indirect effects of important agronomic traits on both grain and biological yields, 364 soybean genotypes (3 planting dates) were studied. the study was based on a design augmented with 3 checks and 6 blocks implemented, in seed and plant ...
