for evaluation of drought tolerance of sugar beet genotypes by assessment of the drought tolerance indices under mild and severe stresses, furrow irrigated field experiments were carried out at zarghan research station in 2002 and 2004, and at motahari research station (located inkaraj) in 2002, 2003, and 2004. the experimental design was split plot, with a randomized complete block arrangement...

abstract water deficit is a major problem for the successful production of agricultural products in iran. this research was conducted to evaluate drought tolerance indices and identifying drought tolerant cultivars of canola. twenty eight canola cultivars were sassed implementing complete block designs experiments in normal and drought stress conditions at isfahan university of technology resea...

current study aimed at determining the most reliable drought tolerant criteria for identification of sugar beet genotypes. a split plot design based on randomized complete block design with three replications was applied at motahari research station, karaj, iran in 2012. two irrigation treatments including normal irrigation after 80-90 mm and irrigation after 270 mm evaporation (stress conditio...

in order to comparison and determination of the best drought tolerance indices in sweet corn hybrids, an experiment was conducted using a randomized complete block design in split plot lay out with three replications at seed and plant improvement institute in karaj in 2006. three irrigation levels (irrigation after 75 as control, 100 and 125 millimeters cumulative evaporation from class a evapo...

drought stress is one of the most important dangers for increasing the yield and good production of crops in iran and the world. to evaluate the genetic diversity of rapeseed genotypes, identifying the drought resistance indices and drought tolerant genotypes, 16 genotypes were tested in a randomized complete block design (rcbd) with three replications and two different water regimes (irrigated...

continual heat stress affects approximately 7 million hectares of wheat in developing countries, while terminal heat stress is a problem in 40% of temperate environments, which cover 36 million hectares throughout the world. heat tolerance is a quantitative and complex trait that doesn’t have much success in direct selection. for this purpose, however, a thorough understanding of physiological ...

maize improvement for high temperature tolerance requires the reliable assessment of parental inbred lines and their combinations. fifteen maize inbred lines were evaluated during 2007 and 2008 in shushtar city (khuzestan province). the inbred lines were planted at two dates: 6 july, to coincide heat stress with pollination time; and 27 july, as normal planting to avoid high temperature during ...
