A Split plot experiment based on randomized complete block design (RCBD) with three replications was conducted in 2012,Treatments were included the time of foliar application with 3 levels (tillering stage, heading stage and no spray (control)) as main factor and cultivars in 4 levels (Sardari, Rijav, Biseton and Rashid) as the second factor. Plant characteristics such as plant height, length o...

most part of durum wheat is produced in semitropical dryland regions in iran. heat and drought stresses are the main constraints in these regions. so, identification of durum wheat cultivars with high yield and tolerant to these stresses is the main breeding strategy in dryland agricultural research institute. the genotype capeiti was evaluated at gachsaran agricultural research station from 19...

aftab cultivar originated from national cereal breeding programs .the new cultivar  was evaluated in international high rainfall wheat yield trial nursery at gachsaran and gonbad agricultural research stations (2008-2009). due to optimum grain yield and other agronomic traits, the new cultivar was tested in advanced yield trials in gachsaran, ilam, khoram abad and gonbad research stations (2009...

67 Abstract: The effect of ultraviolet light on the growth and proline contents of four wheat cultivars (Triticum aestivum L., cvs. Bezostoja-1, Doğu-88, Turkey-13, Yayla-305) was investigated. Ultraviolet light inhibited the growth of all of the four wheat cultivars and increased the daily proline contents of both the radicle and coleoptile. Ultraviolet light is a stress factor in the growth o...

A field experiment was conducted to determine the sensitivity of wheat to water stress and changes in water relations and yield of wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) under water stress conditions applied at different growth stages. The experiment comprised of two wheat cultivars and four water stress treatments, maintained by withholding water at tillering, anthesis, and at both stages. Water stress ...

Wheat leaf non-sequential senescence at the late grain-filling stage involves the early senescence of younger flag leaves compared to that observed in older second leaves. On the other hand, sequential senescence involves leaf senescence that follows an age-related pattern, in which flag leaves are the latest to undergo senescence. The characteristics of sugar metabolism in two sequential senes...

The role of varied sodium (Na) supply in K nutrition of wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) is not well understood especially among cultivars differing in K efficiency. We examined the response of K-efficient and K-inefficient Australian wheat cultivars to Na supply (low to high Na) under K-deficient and K-adequate conditions. In a pot experiment, wheat cvv Wyalkatchem, Cranbrook (K-efficient), and cv...

Grain development is one of the biological processes, which contributes to the final grain yield. To understand the molecular changes taking place during the early grain development, we profiled proteomes of two common wheat cultivars P271 and Chinese Spring (CS) with large and small grains, respectively at three grain developmental stages (4, 8, and 12 days post anthesis). An iTRAQ (isobaric t...

Whole grain wheat flour (WGWF) is the entire grain (bran, endosperm, and germ) milled to make flour. The WGWF of 31 Korean wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) cultivars were analyzed for the chemical compositions, and classified into groups by hierarchical cluster analysis (HCL). The average composition values showed a substantial variation among wheat varieties due to different wheat varieties. Wheat...
