Wheat improvement for drought tolerance requires reliable assessment of drought tolerance variability among segregating populations. One hundred and fifty-one F3 and F4 families of durum wheat derived from a cross between Oste-Gata (as drought tolerance) and Massara-1 (as susceptible) genotypes were evaluated both under moisture stress (E1) and non-stress (E2) field environments using a randomi...

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 correlation was fou...

Drought is the most destructive environmental limitation that jeopardizes agronomic production. Given wide range of industrial and medicinal applications arugula (Eruca sativa. L.), present study evaluated response a world collection 64 genotypes to drought stress over two-year period (2019 2020) through selection indices some traits. The main objective was identify best from Susceptibility Ind...

1 Wheat Research Center, Bangladesh Agricultural Research Institute, Gazipur, Bangladesh ABSTRACT. Twenty five spring wheat genotypes were evaluated for terminal heat stress tolerance in field environments in the Agro Ecological Zone-11 of Bangladesh, during 2009-2010 cropping season. The experiments were conducted at Wheat Research Centre, Bangladesh Agricultural Research Institute, using rand...

Selection for drought tolerance typically involves evaluating genotypes for either high yield potential or stable performance under drought stress. In order to select drought tolerant land races of bread wheat an experiment was conducted in a randomized complete block design (RCBD) with three replications under two different rainfed and irrigated conditions during the growing season 2010-2011. ...

Common bean is adapted to relatively cool climatic conditions and temperatures of>30 Cduring the day or>20 C at night result in yield reduction. The long-term goal of breeding for heat tolerance is the development of germplasm with improved field level tolerance under variable temperature conditions. Using previously developed stress indices, this studypresents results fromhigh temperature scre...

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...
