Study of heritability, types of genes action and determination of effective breeding strategy to improve physiological and morphological traits especially under drought stress conditions are very important.  For such purpose, an experiment was carried out using the generations of the crosses between two pure lines (Kavir × Roshan) under drought stress and non-stress conditions based on randomiz...

In order to investigate the seed vigor of corn hybrid 704 after maternal plant foliar application with methanol, some micro and macro-nutrients an experiment was conducted in a factorial form based on RCBD with three replications during growing seasons of 2010-2011. Treatments were four growth stages (the 8-10 leaves, the tasseling, the seed-filling, all the stages), seven levels of foliar appl...

In order to identify QTLs controlling agronomically traits, landrace Tarom and rice Tarom mutant were crossed. SSR, ISSR, iPBS and IRAP markers were amplified in 250 F2 individuals to prepare the linkage map. Number of tillers, 100 grain weight, number of filled grains, number of unfilled grains, plant height, panicle length, number of branches, stem diameter, grain length, grain width, grain s...

In order to study the correlation of agronomic, morphologic and physiologic traits and their effects on grain yield of rice genotypes in two environments (favorable irrigation and water stress), 49 genotypes were evaluated using a completely randomized block design with 3 replications in two experimental conditions. All practices and conditions were the same for the two experiments with the exc...

     Rice is a worldwide important grain crop, which is considered as the main food and most important source of providing protein and calories for people in the world. Correlation analysis of different traits and yield components with the grain yield is a very important issue in the selection and breeding programs of genotypes. The experiment was performed in the form of completely randomized ...

27 different populations of Triticum boeoticum were gathered from west and North West of Iran for their grouping using morphological traits. All populations were assessed in farm based on completely random design with three replications in 1393. The measured traits include stem length with spike, spike length with and without awn, awn length, flag leaf length, the woolly leaves, peduncle length...

Rice is one of the most important food crops, thus identification of definitive traits on the yield can be used in breeding programs. In order to determine the best suitable morphological markers for selection of superior genotypes, seeds of 15 rice genotypes including 5 varieties (namely: Binam, Dasht, Neda, Mashhad Domsiah and IR62871-175-1-10) and their 10 F1 hybrids of corresponding variate...
