Early vigor is an imperative trait and its role become more important under drought stress condition. Genotypes with better early vigor cover above the soil plane, reduce evaporation of soil surface and increase weed competitiveness. In this research, a half diallel mating design was generated from crosses between seven bread wheat to study the genetic of early vigor. Parents and F1 progenies w...

Study of heritability, types of genes action and determination of effective breeding strategy to improve physiological and morphological traits especially under drought stress conditions are very important.  For such purpose, an experiment was carried out using the generations of the crosses between two pure lines (Kavir × Roshan) under drought stress and non-stress conditions based on randomiz...

This study was conducted to evaluate the gene effects, heritability, heterosis and identification of appropriate breeding methods for improving rice viscosity parameters, during 2014-2016 at Rice Research Institute of Iran. The progeny obtained from the North Carolina III mating design with their parents were planted in a randomized complete block design with three replications. Analysis of var...

The study of the genetic structure controlling agronomic traits is one of the preconditions for selecting the appropriate breeding method. In order to analyze genetic of some agronomic traits of bread wheat using generation mean analysis, parents and different generations resulting from the cross of Marvdasht × MV-17 wheat cultivars were assessed in a randomized complete block design with three...

Genetic components controlling a number of nutrient quality traits in rice (Oryza sativa L.) were studied using 7×7 half a diallel cross. This experiment were carried out for determination of gene action, estimation of heritability and determination the best parents. The contents of P, K, Fe, Zn and Mn were measured from white rice grain flour obtained from studied genotypes. Analysis of varian...
