To determine the inheritance of bread making quality of bread wheat by diallel crossing, the F1 seeds of a 5 × 5 half diallel along with their parents were grown in water-stress and non-stress conditions, in a randomized complete blocks design, at Islamic Azad University, Ardabil, Iran, in 2009, and 8 characters related to their bread quality along with 1000-seed weight and hectolitre mass we...

In order to evaluate the effects of different levels of phosphorus (P) and boron (B) on yield, yield components, seed quality (protein and oil content) and P and B content of rapeseed (Brassica napus L.), a greenhouse experiment (aimed at removal of other environmental factors affecting growth parameters, which are not manageable in the field) was conducted. Treatments consisted of two cultivar...

This research was conducted to investigate the relationship between different traits, detecting factors affecting this relationship and to identify components of seed yield in canola under drought and normal conditions. Twenty eight canola cultivars were evaluated for morphological, agronomic and physiological traits under water stress and normal irrigation according to a randomized block desig...

An experiment was conducted to study the effects of plant density and cultivars on seed yield and yield components of corn (Zea mays L.) under the climatic conditions of Khorramabad at the Agriculture Research Station of Sarab Changaei. This experiment was a factorial on the basis of a randomized complete block design (RCBD) with four plant densities (6.5, 7.5, 8.5 and 9.5 plant/m2), three cor...

Safflower (Carthamus tinctorius L.) is cultivated in a wide range of geographical conditions in the world from Africa to Europe, India and China. Previous studies have shown that diversity in indigenous Iranian germplasm is limited for some traits therefore germplasm collections from other origins need to be considered. An experiment was conducted to evaluate agronomic and morphological traits ...
