in order to study of drought tolerance in bread wheat genotypes, this study was conducted in maragheh dryland agricultural research station. the study included two experiments and the statistical design of each experiment was a rcbd with four replications, and 20 bread wheat genotypes that were compared under drought stress (rainfed) and supplementary irrigation. analysis of simple variance sup...

A quantitative trait locus (QTL) analysis was conducted on grain appearance in Emi-no-kizuna, a rice cultivar that has superior and stable appearance of the brown rice grain and high tolerance to high temperature stress, by using F3 lines derived from Emi-no-kizuna and Tomohonami. The investigation was performed 2013 and 2015. In summer 2013 the air temperature was higher and the larger differe...

The present study was carried out to estimate genetic variability parameters for some traits such as pods per plant, cell membrane stability, one thousand kernel weight, flowering period, grain filling period, chlorophyll content, relative water content, leaf excised water content, seed per pod and pod length, in 16 winter rapeseed genotypes. Statistical analysis showed significant differences ...

Flowering time is a key agronomic trait that plays an important role in crop yield. There is growing interest in dissecting the developmental subphases of flowering to better understand and fine-tune plant development and maximize yield. To do this, we used the wild barley nested association mapping (NAM) population HEB-25, comprising 1420 BC1S3 lines, to map quantitative trait loci (QTLs) cont...

a field experiment was conducted to study the physical properties of maize grain in response to different urea fertilization methods (urea foliar spraying and soil application), three harvest times (grain moisture content of 20, 30 and 40 pecent) in four maize hybrids (three foreign hybrids e.g. ns640, jeta600 , konsur580 and one common hybrid, sc704 as control) at khorram abad agricultural res...

An experiment was conducted at Institute of Agriculture and Animal Science (IAAS), Rampur, Nepal during July 2011 to September 2011 with an objectine to determine phenotypic variability of Nepalese finger millet landraces using descriptive statistics, cluster analysis and principal component analysis. FValue of REML procedure of mixed model analysis revealed that highly significant variation wa...
