Two field experiments were carried out to investigate the effects of terminal drought on chickpea grown under water-limited conditions in the Mediterranean-climatic region of Western Australia. In the first experiment, five desi (small angular seeds) chickpeas and one kabuli ( large round seeds) chickpea were grown in the field with and without irrigation after flowering. In the second experime...

. in order to study the variation for seed yield and its components, 200 accessions of alfalfa (medicago sativa l.) were sown as drilled plots, using alpha designs/unreplicated with two repeated entries with in all of 10 blocks under dry land farming system in kabodarahang research station, hamadan, iran, during 2010 to 2011. data were analyzed for descriptive statistics, correlation, regressio...

Simple phenotypic and genotypic correlation coefficients were calculated from 18 genotypes of glory lily (Gloriosa superba L.) during two seasons (2007 and 2008). Experiment was laid out in a randomized block design with three replications at the Medicinal Plants Unit, Botanical Garden, Tamil Nadu Agricultural University, Coimbatore, Tamil Nadu, India. Positive phenotypic and genotypic correlat...

The combining ability analysis using Line × Tester model was conducted in chickpea to know the general and specific combining ability of the distingushing parents and their crosses, respectively and to select best material for further breeding programme and generation advanceme- nt. Two genetically diverse testers viz., JAKI-9218 and ICCV-2 as females and 8 males viz., HC-5, ICC-506, PKV Harita...

Peanut seeds are rich in arginine, an amino acid that has several positive effects on human health. Establishing the genetic variability of arginine content in peanut will be useful for breeding programs that have high arginine as one of their goals. The objective of this study was to evaluate the variation of arginine content, pods/plant, seeds/pod, seed weight, and yield in Valencia peanut ge...

in order to assess the performance of two soybean cultivars produced in two regions including karaj and moghan to drought stress at reproductive stages and also the impact of drought stress on yield and its components, oil and protein percent, an experiment was conducted as a split factorial based on complete randomized block design in three replications in agriculture faculty of tarbiat modare...

an experiment was carried out in 2008 to investigate the effects of different irrigation regimes, and chickpea cultivars on chickpea production in the khorramabad lorestan. the experiment was split–plot in a randomized complete block design with 3 replications. supplementary irrigation at 8 levels (1-rainfed without irrigation, 2-irrigation after sowing, 3-irrigation at flowering, 4-irrigation ...

Grass pea (Lathyrus sativus L.) has a high potential for forage production inboth rangelands and cultivated rainfed areas of Iran. It is well adapted to semi-arid areas ofwest and north of country where annual rainfall is 250–350 mm. To study the seed and DryMatter (DM) yield and agronomic traits, six genotypes of Lathyrus sativus L. and twogenotypes of Lathyrus inconspicuous L. were provided b...
