the objective of this research was to investigate the effects of deficit irrigation on physiological and agronomic terms of eggplant to maximize the water use efficiency (wue) without affecting the final yield and fruit quality parameters under arid environment. therefore, two field experiments were conducted at two different sites: ghor al-safi, jordan valley and sail al-karak, karak valley, ka...

in order to compare photosynthetic features of triticale, bread wheat, and barley under water deficit conditions, this experiment was carried out in kurdistan province in western iran. four genotypes of triticale, three cultivars of bread wheat, and a new variety of barley were compared under well watered (ψsoil= -3 bars) and soil water deficit (ψsoil= -12 bars) conditions in a randomized compl...

in countries such as iran which will be faced water deficit as the main challenge in the future and the food production is going to be dependent to water recourses, wheat water-deficit tolerant and adapted genotypes release is one of the most important strategies under such a condition. in order to study the adaptation and terminal water deficit stress tolerance, fifteen bread wheat lines and c...

canopy temperature (ct) is used as a selection tool to improve crop adaptation to drought. the aim of this work was to investigate association of some photosynthetic characters with ct during grain filling in three cereal species. for this objective, a two-year study (2009-2011) was carried out in kurdistan province in western iran. four genotypes of triticale, three cultivars of bread wheat, a...

With the aim of understanding and identifying the traits which can be used as the suitable criteria for quick screening of the water deficit tolerant barley genotypes, an experiment based on randomized complete blocks design with three replications was conducted during two years to evaluate the biochemical responses of 20 barley genotypes to full irrigation and terminal water stress in the fie...
