in order to locate qtls controlling some agronomic traits associated to drought stress and to determine their relationships with grain yield, an experiment was conducted at the research farm, college of agriculture, university of zabol in 2011. the experiment was arranged in two complete block designs with 3 replications. 72 barley double haploid lines including their parents (steptoe×morex) we...

Trachypogon spicatus, formerly known as Trachypogon plumosus, is a dominant grass in some savannas of Northern South America. Its dispersal unit, like many other species of the Andropogoneae tribe, bears a hygroscopic awn which facilitates its establishment in favorable microsites. Some authors have previously proposed that there is a positive correlation between awn length and dispersal unit b...

breeding programs strategies depends on genetical mechanism of selection traits. in the present research, generation mean analysis with joint scaling test was performed to determine the gene action. f1, f2 and f3 generations, derived from roushan and kavir cross along with their parents were sown in a partial lattice design with two replications under stress condition at the research field of s...

due to cereal are affected by drought stress in their lifetime. in order to study gene action of bread wheat under drought stress condition, a generation mean analysis was performed using f1, f2 and f3 generations derived from roushan and kavir. generation mean analysis was performed based on joint scaling test. genetic parameters including additive effect (d), dominance effect (h), additive×ad...

Soil salinization requires developing genetically salt-tolerant and high-yielding genotypes, especially in semi-arid arid regions. In this study, two new Tunisian durum wheat cultivars, INRAT100 Dhahbi, were tested for the first time a semi-closed environment against salinity (0, 6 12 dS m-1). Dry weight of aerial root parts, plant height, number tillers per plant, spike awn length, grain yield...

to determine the correlation between important traits with yield in barley through path analysis for selecting high yielding lines, three new lines of barley resistant to cold (c-81-13, c-81-11, c-81 -15), compared with valfajr (as control) were studied. this experiment was conducted in a randomized complete block design with three replications, during 2008 to 2010 in boyer ahmad city.a number ...

Abstract One of the most important traits that plant breeders aim to improve is grain yield which a highly quantitative trait controlled by various agro-morphological traits. Twelve morphological such as Germination Percentage, Days Spike Emergence, Plant Height, Length, Awn Tillers/Plant, Leaf Angle, Seeds/Spike, Thickness, 1000-Grain Weight, Harvest Index and Maturity have been considered ind...
