Drought stress is one of the most important abiotic factors which adversely affects growth, metabolism and yield of crops worldwide. The goal of the research was identify drought tolerate canola genotypes using the different drought tolerance indices. The experiment was conducted as split plot based on randomized complete block design with three replications at the experimental farm of agricult...

Among different environmental stresses, drought is of great importance that induces a highly negative effect on crop production. In order to evaluate drought tolerance in dryland wheat genotypes, 36 genotypes were studied in a randomized complete block design with three replications under rainfed (drought stress) and supplemental irrigation conditions during 2016–2017 growing season in Research...

Breeding of rice for drought tolerance requires proper evaluation and analysis of genetic diversity in breeding populations related to drought tolerance. In order to identify indices for tolerant and sensitive rice genotypes to drought stress, an experiment with 59 genotypes of rice was conducted based of a complete block design with three replications in non-stressed (flooding) and stressed co...

The present study was conducted to investigate the genetic diversity and evaluate the drought tolerance indices on 16 genotypes of faba been based on split plot design with three replications in Agricultural Research Center of Borujerd. Irrigation regimes as the including normal and drought stress levels and genotypes were considered as the main and sub plot,respectively. Analysis of variance f...

This study was conducted to evaluate drought resistance of milk thistle (Silybum marianum L.) at seedling stage. The experiment was designed as a split plot in a randomized complete block design. Treatments were combination of drought stress levels as main plots and different milk thistle ecotypes as subplot layouts replicated 3 times and run in a hydroponic system. Root length, root volume, ch...
