We established linear and exponential relationships between leaf area (A) and leaf length (L), leaf width (W), W(2), L(2) and LW, in Salix viminalis L. Most relationships were significantly nonlinear, but good fits were obtained with both linear and exponential models. The nonlinear relationship between A and LW differed for leaves from sylleptic and proleptic shoots. Leaves from sylleptic and ...

in order to providing selection indices using heritability and correlation effective traits on yield and multiple regression an experiment was conducted by 265 f3 families as well as parents and f1 related to gharib × khazar population in 2009 at gonbad high education center fields. days to repining (0.97) and panicle number and flag leaf length (0.66) had maximum and minimum heritability, resp...

The seasonal change in leaf water potential and its components, stomatal resistance, specific leaf weight, photosynthesis rate, the activities of ribulose-1,5-bisphosphate carboxylase and nitrate reductase, and soluble proteins were measured in flag leaves (ninth from base in position), seventh and fifth leaves of wheat Triticum aestivum L. cv Kalyansona. Flag leaves had a lower water and solut...

abstract- the evaluation of leaf area and leaf nutritional value is important for crop growth modeling and estimations of its performance. the purpose of this study was to use image processing techniques to develop an economical method to ease the assessment of nutrient status and leaf area (la) of plants and to compare the outcomes of this method with linear models. leaf area and leaf chloroph...

During grain formation stage (90 to 110 days), the youngest flag leaf of rice (Oryza sativa L. cv. Jaya) remained metabolically most active (as indicated by cellular constituents and enzyme activities) and the third leaf the least active. At the grain development stage (110 to 120 days) the above pattern of age-related senescence of the flag leaf completely changed and it senesced at a faster r...

to evaluate the effects of water deficit stress in barley germplasm collection of national gene bank ofiran, 25 genotypes collected from arid and semi arid provinces of iran and 3 sample cultivars werestudied in two environments including: non-stressed and water deficit stress. agronomical, phenologicaland morphological traits were measured. stress indices were calculated to determine tolerant ...

A newly developed wheat cultivar NARC 2011 was evaluated for physioagronomic traits by varying Humic acid concentrations and Effective microbes at different phenological stages during rabi season of 2010-11 in the field area allocated to national coordinated wheat program of national agricultural research centre, Islamabad. The experiment was laid out using randomized complete block design (RCB...

the autotetraploidy was achieved in basil using tip meristem treatment of seedlings with various concentrations of colchicine solution (0, 0.05, 0.1, 0.2, 0.5 and 0.75% (w/v) ph = 6). a significant increase in the essential oil content was observed in tetraploids as they carry the potential of productivity of 69 % more oil over the diploids. a field experiment was conducted to investigate the e...
