Plant growth regulators (PGRs) are used to prevent reduction in wheat grain yield under limited moisture conditions. The effect of 3 PGRs including cycocel, salicylic acid and brassinoestroeid on yield and yield components of  four wheat cultivars (Chamran, Shiroudi, Pishtaz and Sirvan) under well watered and water stress (withheld irrigation after flowering) was examined. The experiment was ca...

Among the crops, cereals have been special important and triticale is the most successful man made cereal. In present research, water deficit stress effects on 19 triticale genotypes (X Triticosecale wittmack) and two wheat cultivars (Triticum aestivum), Shiraz (sensitive to water deficit stress) and Kavir (tolerant to water deficit stress) were tested. Therefore, two separate field experiments...

Water deficit is one of the most important abiotic factors limiting growth, which adversely affect growth and crop production. In order to study the relationship between kernel size and phenological characteristics on grain yield, 46 local bread wheat genotypes along with four varieties were evaluated in randomized complete block design with three replications under irrigation and water deficit...

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...

In order to investigate the effect of seed priming on yield, yield components and some quality characteristics of rainfed wheat Azar2 cultivar, an experiment was conducted as a randomized complete blocks design with three replications in the Research Field of Kurdistan University, Sannandaj, Iran during two seasons (2018-2020). Priming treatments included control (nonprime), potassium chloride ...
