in order to investigation of waterlogging stress effects on morphological and physiological traits of rapeseed in different developmental stages, a pot experiment was conducted at gorgan university of agricultural sciences and natural resources during 2010-2011. the experiment design was completely randomized with factorial arrangement and three replications. examined factors were developmental...

proportionality of wheat cultivars growth patterns to the area’s agro climatic condition will improve crop production. the objective of this study was identifying the phenology of a wide range of wheat varieties in iran, as well as evaluating the relationship between phenology and drought stress tolerance under late season drought stress. in this experiment, 36 wheat genotypes were studied unde...

this research was conducted to evaluate the effect of different nitrogen and zinc combination on grain yield and its component in maize by path analysis. this experiment was carried out through split plot based on rcbd, varieties as main plot and fertilizers as sub plot, with three replication at badjgah (experimental farm of shiraz university). nitrogen fertilizer in (120,260 and 400 kg/ha) an...

two field and laboratory experiments were conducted to investigate the effects of superabsorbent polymer (sap) and irrigation management on seed and essential oil yields of cumin, as well as the impact of water quality on water holding capacity of sap. salinity had a negative effect on the amount of water absorbed by sap (335 and 59 g h2o per g sap, for distilled water and solution of 0.5% nacl...

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 ...

BACKGROUND AND AIMS Experiments have shown that biotrophic fungi divert assimilates for their growth. However, no attempt has been made either to account for this additional sink or to predict to what extent it competes with both grain filling and plant reserve metabolism for carbon. Fungal sink competitiveness with grains was quantified by a mixed experimental-modelling approach based on winte...
