in order to evaluate terminal drought tolerance in different canola cultivars based on drought tolerance indices, an experiment was conducted based on randomized complete block design (rcbd) with three replications at experimental field of seed and plant improvement institute (spii), karaj in 2008-09. results using stress tolerance index (sti), geometric mean productivity (gmp) and mean product...

This study was conducted to determine drought tolerance genotypes with superiority in different stressed environments. To screening quantitative indices of drought tolerance, genotypes of safflower (Carthamus tinctorius L.) were tested in a complete randomized block design with three replications under two different water regimes (irrigated and rainfed). Significant positive correlatio...

The objective of this study was to determine the effect of pregrazing pasture herbage mass (HM) on CH4 emissions, ruminal fermentation, and ADG of grazing beef heifers at 2 stages of the grazing season. Thirty Limousin cross heifers were allocated to 1 of 2 target pregrazing HM treatments [a low HM (LHM) or high HM (HHM) treatment] for 126 d in a randomized block design experiment. Pasture herb...

breeding for environmental stress is one of the most important goals in plant breeding. among stresses, drought stress has high influencing on limitation of wheat production. so, in order to find the best drought tolerant genotypes, 24 genotypes were planted in three separate experiments in ardebil: one with optimum irrigation (control), another with water stress at pre-anthesis stage and the o...

in order to study and determine the most effective traits, drought tolerance indices and identify tolerant genotypes in terminal drought stress on the cowpea, an experiment was carried out based on an augment design in two separate conditions in the karaj farm, faculty of agriculture, tehran university in 2009. drought stress was imposed by cutting irrigation after flowering against normal irri...

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...

in order to evaluate the best drought resistance indices in sugar beetgenotypes, an experiment was conducted in 2002 using a split- plot design within randomized complete block design with three replications at the research farm, shiraz-zarghan. the main plots consisted of three irrigated regimes: non stress, 75% (mid stress) and 50% (intense stress) non stress and the ten genotypes as the sub ...
