in order to study the realationship between genetic diversity and different characteristics associated with grain yield in barley, 28 genotypes of barley cultivars contain seven cultivars and 21 hybrids were evaluated in randomized complete block (rcb) design with three replications. cultivars were valfajr, makuei, kavir, rayhan, gorgan, nusrat and nimroz. this study was carried out in research...

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 ...

One new species is added to the genus Sinocyclocheilus, the largest cyprinid genus in China and the largest cavefish genus in the world. Sinocyclocheilus gracilicaudatus sp. nov. is similar to S. donglanensis but differs to other congeners in having normal eyes and scaled body, curved lateral line with 59-64 lateral-line scale rows, half-hard dorsal fin spine, 8 gill rakers and 8 predorsal vert...

Abstract. Based on the material collected during fieldwork seasons from 1996 to 2007 in amount of 223 specimens, we studied phenetic relationships and taxonomic structure genus Cyphocottus. Two valid species, C. megalops eurystomus, within boundaries established by D.N. Taliev (1955) were confirmed Interspecific differences eurystomus are manifested greater values interorbital distance, height ...

In bread wheat (Triticum aestivum L.), crop height is an important determinant of agronomic performance. To map QTLs with additive effects and additive×additive epistatic interactions, 148 recombinant inbred lines and their parents, (‘YecoraRojo’ and Iranian landrace (No. #49)) were evaluated under normal and water deficit conditions. The experiments were carried out on research farms of Mahaba...

a trial study was set to assess the influence of the plant residue management in conjuction with application of different nitrogen sources on accumulation and translocation of wheat stem reserves, at the agricultural faculty of shahid chamran university of ahvaz during 2011-2012. the experimental design was split plot at randomized completed block design arrangement. the main plot were differen...

terminal heat stress is the most widespread heat stress in the world. in order to evaluate the effect of heat stress on yield, yield component, and mopho-phenological traits of barley, 10 barley genotypes including the 2-row genotypes: mahour, khoram, nimrooz, abidar and 6-row genotypes: yousef, rihan 03, izeh, zahak, nosrat, jonoub were tested under normal (optimum sowing date) and heat stress...

Successful production and development of stable and adaptable genotypes only depend on the positive results achieved from the interaction between genotype and environment that consequently has a significant impact on breeding strategies. In this regard, we conducted an experiment to study genotypic differences of 16 lines durum wheat under both zinc sufficient and deficient stress during 2014-2...
