Background: Yield is a complex entity. The pre-requisite for achieving high yields in rice depends on identification of superior new genotypes various traits associated with yield. These characters may help advancing the yield like plant height, tillers per plant, length panicle, grains grain weight and their relationship direct indirect contribution to present study was conducted identify its ...

Selection of parents based on their combining ability is an effective approach in hybrid breeding. In this study, eight maintainer lines and nine restorer lines were used to obtain 72 crosses for analyzing the general combining ability (GCA) and special combining ability (SCA) for seven agronomic and yield characters including plant height (PH), spike length excluding awns (SL), inter-node leng...

A study was conducted to evaluate the seasonal influence on yield and yield contributing characters of four lablab bean genotypes: IPSA Seam-1, IPSA Seam-2, BU Seam-3 and JER during September 2000 to December 2001 covering one main season (winter) and two off-seasons (early summer and late summer). Compared to off-seasons, all the genotypes performed better for all the parameters during winter....

in order to evaluate the relationship between morphological characters in rice lines two populations at f3 generation were grown in research field of agricultural sciences and natural resource university, sari, iran, during 2012. statistical analysis on important agronomic traits showed that maximum standard deviation belonged to total grain number followed by filled grains per panicle and grai...

Spent mushroom substrate (SMS) is the by-products of production, which mainly composed disintegrated lignocellulosic biomass, mycelia and some minerals. The huge output lack effective utilization methods make SMS becoming a serious environmental problem. In order to improve application derived biochar (SBC), composted (CSMS), SBC, combined plant growth-promoting rhizobacteria (PGPR, Bacillus su...
