Principal component analysis is a valid method used for data compression and information extraction in a given set of experiments. It is a well-known classical data analysis technique. There are a number of algorithms for solving the problems, some scaling better than others. Wheat ranks as the staple food of most of the nations as well as an agent of poverty reduction, food security and world ...

this experiment was conducted using a randomized complete block design with three ‎replications with 10 barley cultivars in dryland research station of northern khorasan (shirvan) ‎in 2004-2005 growing season. results indicated that there was significant differences among the ‎lines in terms of the stand percentage, days to emergence, days to heading, days to maturity, plant ‎height, number of ...

abstract in order to investigate the response of two species of p. ovata and p. psyllium to water deficit. the experiment was conducted during 2009 growing seasons in the agriculture research station ferdowsi of mashhad. for this purpose a split plot experiment based on complete randomized block design with three replications was used. four irrigation levels (4000, 3000, 2000, 1000 m3/ha) alloc...

the present study aimed at investigating the effect of different levels of nitrogen on yield and yield components of bread and durum wheat. to this end the experiment was conducted in 2010-2011 in south west of iran as split plots based on randomized complete block design with three replications. main plot included four levels of nitrogen 60, 120, 180, 240 kg.ha-1 and the sub plot included four...

Successful production and development of stable and adaptable genotypes only depend on the positive results achieved from the interaction between genotype and environment that consequently has a significant impact on breeding strategies. In this regard, we conducted an experiment to study genotypic differences of 16 lines durum wheat under both zinc sufficient and deficient stress during 2014-2...

In North Africa, barley (Hordeum vulgare L) is the second most cultivated cereal. Tunisia, in mining areas with possible Cd soil contamination. The accumulation of was studied 36 African cultivars cultured during 6 months on control and containing 10 ppm Cd. Cadmium did not affect germination morphology any cultivar. However, induced variable effects biomass according to cultivar Lemsi sensitiv...

to investigate the influence of salinity and calcium (ca) on some properties of plantago ovata, a pot factorialexperiment based on randomized complete block design with three replicates was conducted in jiroft, south of kermanprovince, iran. three salinity levels of 0, 100 and 200 mm nacl and ca levels of 0, 5 and 10 mm calcium nitrate wereapplied as the first and second factors, respectively. ...

BACKGROUND: Management of nutrients, especially nitrogen, in order to have economic production, maintain sustainable agriculture and provide food security, is considered to have an important priority. OBJECTIVES: Current study was conducted to evaluate effect of different level of nitrogen fertilizer and vermicompost on quantitative and qualitative traits of w...

abiotic stresses and lack of nutrients are one of the most important factors in reducing the crop yield.  vigorous and developed roots can facilitate uptake of water and nutrients more efficiently making it essential for enhancing the yield. association mapping is currently one of the approaches for detecting quantitative trait loci (qtls) influencing complex traits. this approach was used to d...
