this experiment contained four vetch lines (vicia panonica ) that conducted in two locations (faruj and bojnourd) in 2005-2006 in rcbd design with four replications under dryland conditions. analysis of variance indicated that there were significant differences among lines in different locations about all traits, except 100-seed weight. the interaction of genotype×location was significant on al...
