the effect of drought stress on yield and components of three varieties of autumnal rapeseed in the south ‎eastern region of isfahan, utilizing four irrigation regimes (i.e. no irrigation from flowering stage on, no ‎irrigation from the podding stage on, no irrigation from grain filling stage on, and a normal irrigation regime ‎after 80 mm evaporation from class a evaporation tube) were studied...

This investigation was done in order to study the response of grain yield and yield components of bread wheat cultivars to drought stress in western Iran in 2008-2009. The main plots were levels of drought stress (full irrigation, stress at early stem elongation, flowering and grain filling stages) and subplots were five cultivars (Chamran, Dez and Verinak). The results indicated that the effec...

to investigate the effect of plant density and supplemental irrigation on agronomic characteristics, chlorophyll content and light interception beneath the canopy of three chickpea genotypes under dryland conditions, an experiment was conducted at research station of lorestan agricultural research center located at chegini, khoramabad, during 2004-2005. the study was conducted using a split-spl...

salinity and flooding are as two very important factors of soil degradation. they often occur together and cancause severe damage to plants. however, plant response to environmental stresses may vary with growth stage atwhich exposure occurs. a pot study was conducted in 2005-2006 in northern aq qala (northern iran) to studycombine effects of waterlogging and soil salinity at different growth s...

Protein content (PC) is a crucial factor that determines the end-use and nutritional quality of wheat (Triticum aestivum). Glutamine synthetase (GS), which is a major participant in nitrogen metabolism, can convert inorganic nitrogen into organic nitrogen. Although many studies have been conducted on PC and GS, a dynamic analysis of all of the filling stages has not been conducted. Therefore, 1...

Abstract Background Recent temperature increases due to rapid climate change have negatively affected rice yield and grain quality. Particularly, high temperatures during right after the flowering stage reduce spikelet fertility, while interfering with sugar energy transport, cause severe damage quality by forming chalkiness grains. The effect of high-temperature on fertility filling was evalua...
