randomly amplified polymorphic dna (rapd) markers were used to study the genetic diversity and discriminate among 17 unknown genotypes (considered potentially salt tolerant) and 16 known olive cultivars. fifteen decamer primers which produced 38 reproducible polymorphic bands in the genotypes were selected for analysis. the rapd markers resulted in 93 distinct banding patterns. based on either ...

seed and oil yields, its components and two physiological indices including leaf canopy temperature (tc) and relative water content (rwc) were evaluated in two spring oilseed rape cultivars (rgs 300 and hyola 401) under non-stressed and water deficit imposed during stem elongation, flowering and seed filing stages. the experiments were conducted as a factorial consisted of 2 factors including i...

using microsatellite molecular markers is important particularly due to their high accuracy in studying the genome of the fruit trees. in this study, genetic diversity and relations of 68 almond cultivars and genotypes using microsatellite marker (ssr) were studied. genomic dna extracted from young leaf tissues and pcr reactions were performed using 22 selected primers (among 100 primers) of mi...

in order to evaluate terminal drought tolerance in different canola cultivars based on drought tolerance indices, an experiment was conducted based on randomized complete block design (rcbd) with three replications at experimental field of seed and plant improvement institute (spii), karaj in 2008-09. results using stress tolerance index (sti), geometric mean productivity (gmp) and mean product...

abstract due to calcareous soil conditions, zinc deficiency is a yield limiting factor for wheat production in iran. one solution for this problem is the cultivation of zn-efficient wheat varieties. ten wheat cultivars (nine bread wheat and one durum wheat) with different tolerance to zn deficiency were studied in a greenhouse experiment. plants were treated with zn (10 mg zn kg-1 soil as znso4...
