Chickpea (Cicer arietinum L.) is one of the most important crops worldwide that is a subject of many plant breeding programs in many countries. In addition, climates are changing all over the world and drought becomes one of the most serious problems versus yield of crops. In order to screen drought tolerant genotype in Chickpea, twenty genotypes were tested under rainfed and irrigated...

Yield response of Nigella (Nigella sativa L.), also known as Kalonji, was compared under the treatments Nlevels (30, 60, and 90 kg ha -1 ) and nutrients mixture “Micro Power” applications (single, double and triple) as foliar spray (FS) during vegetative growth 60, 80 and 100 days after sowing (DAS). Field experiment was conducted at Agronomy Research area, the University of Agriculture, Peshaw...

Fertilizer recommendations for peach cultivation in the southeastern United States were developed decades ago and may not reflect trees’ needs under current practices. Adequate fertilization young trees induces a balanced vegetative/reproductive growth, ensures efficient resource use, is environmentally sound. Droughts region are becoming more common. Supplemental irrigation peaches from time o...

Previous studies have shown that wheat grain yield is seriously affected by drought stress, and leaf cuticular wax is reportedly associated with drought tolerance. However, most studies have focused on cuticular wax biosynthesis and model species. The effects of cuticular wax on wheat drought tolerance have rarely been studied. The aims of the current study were to study the effects of leaf cut...

for assessment of drought stress effects on agro characteristics of 30 lines and 6 wheat cultivars and for introducing of drought tolerant and susceptible ones one trial were established using split plot base of randomized complete block design with two replications, main plots were stress and non-stress condition and sub plots contain 30 lines and six wheat cultivars in the check trial, irriga...

objective: in order to study genetic variation and effect of drought stress on grain yield and some morphological traits in chickpea, an experiment was conducted on 64 genotypes during 2013-2014 cropping season at deputy of kermanshah sararood dry land agricultural research institute, located on the western part of iran. methods: the experimental design was a randomized lattice design with tow ...

in arid and semi arid, seedling emergence and establishment are key stages for final plant density in chickpea production. drought stress, especially at the end of the growing season, is one of the factors which decrease a main part of chickpea grain yield in these areas. therefore the aims of this study were assess to the effects of hydro priming and hormonal priming by gibberellin and abscisi...

Twenty-five cultivars of grain sorghum [Sorghum bicolor (L.) Moench] were examined under both drought stress and normal conditions in 4 experiments. In each condition, genotypes were evaluated in a factorial experiment using a randomized complete block design with 3 replications. Eight drought tolerance indices including stability tolerance index, mean productivity (MP), geometric MP, harmonic ...
