Extended Abstract Introduction and Objective: Due to the very high diversity among the genotypes of quinoa (Chenopodium quinoa), it has shown a very high adaptability and stability in different climates. Therefore, this experiment was performed to investigate the morphological and genetic diversity of 14 quinoa genotypes and compare them with the control genotype of the region (Titicaca). Ma...

In order to investigate the effect of nitrogen management on morphophysiological traits, yield and yield components of corn hybrids, the present experiment was carried out in a split plots arrangement in a randomized complete blocks design with three replications in a field located in Ahvaz city during the crop year 2016-2017. Experimental treatments consisted of nitrogen fertilizer management ...

  Application of selection index for screening desired plants based on complex quantitative traits can be more effective than direct selection. This study was conducted using an F2 rice population consisting of 87 plants derived from a cross between two cultivars Gharib and IR28. The purpose was to establish suitable selection indices for increasing yield and its related traits in research farm...

In order to study the effect of irrigation withholding and biofertilizers application on quantitative and qualitative yield and grain filling duration of sunflower (Helianthus annus L.), a factorial experiment was conducted based on randomized complete block design with three replications in research field of Faculty of Agriculture and Natural Resources, University of Mohaghegh Ardabili, Iran i...

To determine gene action and heritability of grain yield related traits in rice, six rice varieties including Hashemi, Vandana, Kadous, Hassani, Shahpasand and IR36 were crossed in a diallel design in 2010. The parents and seeds of F1 generation (36 genotypes) were grown in a completely randomized block design with three replications at the Research Field of the Rice Research Institute of Iran-...
