This study was conducted to estimate stability of yield in forage sorghum varieties for identifying varieties with combine stability and high yield potential across two cropping conditions. Thus, seven forage sorghum varieties were evaluated for three years under two cropping conditions including spring (E1) and summer (E2) cropping, using a randomized complete block design with four replicatio...

abstract the variables affecting the nature of reading comprehension can be classified into two general categories: reader’s variables, and text variables (alderson, 2000). despite the wave of research on vocabulary knowledge as reader’s variable, the role of this knowledge in c-test as a text-dependent test and its interaction with lexical cohesion of the test as a text feature has remained a...

The interaction of genotype × environment creates complications in yield prediction and is a challenge for agronomy and plant breeding programs. To evaluate grain yield stability and genotype × environment interaction for 18 local and exotic grain sorghum cultivars, lines, and hybrids, a field experiment was conducted using randomized complete block design with three replications in four region...

abstract the influence of cation?? and anion?? interactions on the strength and nature of n…h hydrogen bond has been investigated by quantum chemical calculations in s-triazine…3hf complex. ab initio calculations were performed at mp2/6-311++g(d,p) level of theory. the natural bond orbital (nbo) analysis and the bader’s quantum theory of atoms in molecules (aim) were also used to elucidate t...

abstract: postmethod is a newly developed pedagogy which as an alternative to method rejects the notion of good or bad methods and the concept of best method that can be generalized and appropriate for all contexts. instead, it treats each context as unique and one of a kind which cant be compared with other cases. this study is a postmethod-oriented one which investigates whether and how far t...

This research was conducted at Rsearch Farm of Isfahan University of Technology to evaluate yield stability of 9 Oat (Avena sativa L.) genotypes and Makooi barley, to determine the contribution of each environmental factor to genotype × environment interaction, and to find the most stable yield component in these genotypes. Four Canadian cultivars and 5 Turkish breeding lines were included in t...
