this study was conducted to determine the effect of cliniptilolite natural zeolite on deficit irrigation stress tolerance on maize cultivar ksc704. the experiment was laid out as a factorial design based on randomized complete block with three replications at seed and plant improvement institute, karaj in 2012. four irrigation levels, including irrigation after 70, 95, 120 and 145 mm cumulative...

Genetic diversity of 40 traditional Bangladeshi rice genotypes was studied under rainfed condition through Mahalanobis D statistic for grain yield and yield contributing characters. The genotypes were grouped into six clusters. The inter-cluster distances were higher than intra-cluster distances indicating wider genetic diversity among the genotypes of different clusters. The intra-cluster dist...

20 hulless barley lines were assessed by grain yield and other agronomic traits in 2006 and 2007 in the research station of the university of tabriz, iran. the experiments in each year were carried out as randomized complete block design with four replications. the genotypes were significantly different for most of the studied traits. this indicated the existence of large genetic variation in t...

Kernel morphology characteristics of wheat are complex and quantitatively inherited. A doubled haploid (DH) population of the cross RL4452/'AC Domain' was used to study the genetic basis of seed shape. Quantitative trait loci (QTL) analyses were conducted on a total of 18 traits: 14 grain shape traits, flour yield (Fyd), and three agronomic traits (Plant height [Plht], 1000 Grain weight [Gwt], ...

Correlation coefficient analysis conducted on 22 triticale x bread wheat derivatives along with six checks to select true- breeding derivative(s) for future hybridization programme with tolerance to drought and cold stress conditions as well as better quality traits revealed significant correlation of grain yield with spikelets per spike, biological yield, harvest index, leaf area index. Intere...

this research was conducted to evaluate the effect of different nitrogen and zinc combination on grain yield and its component in maize by path analysis. this experiment was carried out through split plot based on rcbd, varieties as main plot and fertilizers as sub plot, with three replication at badjgah (experimental farm of shiraz university). nitrogen fertilizer in (120,260 and 400 kg/ha) an...

in order to evaluate the effects of different levels of water and plant density on yield, yield components, morphological and physiological characteristics of a new corn hybrid (ksc 500), an experiment was carried out in 2006 in karaj area. the experimental design was split plot based on randomized complete blocks design with three replications. main plots were three irrigation levels: 75%, 100...

Using the KASP technology, allelic composition of TaTGW6-A1, TaGASR7-A1, TaCKX6-D1, and TaGs3-D1 loci associated with 1000-grain weight trait was identified in 25 varieties variety accessions common wheat Belarusian foreign breeding. Annotated DNA sequences were selected for modeling synthesis primers. It demonstrated that examined genotypes had carried both favorable alleles weight, producing ...
