In order to determine the relations between different characteristics with grain yield of rice lines, an experiment carried out with 150 F8 recombinant inbred lines derived from a cross between two Iranian rice varieties Sepidroud (drought susceptible variety, male parent) and Gharib (drought tolerant variety, female parent) along with 6 varieties as check varieties based on Augment design usin...

In order to study the effect of the superabsorbent polymer and manure fertilizer on the baking characteristics of wheat cultivars under different water deficit conditions, an experiment was carried out in a factorial layout based on a randomized complete block design in three replications at Agricultural Research Center, West-Azerbaijan (Saatlo station) during 2017-2018 growing seasons. The fac...

To assess the productivity potential of dual-purpose (grain-forage) sorghum promising lines at different harvesting times, a field experiment was carried-out using randomized complete block design with three replications in six locations (Karaj, Mashhad, Isfahan, Birjand, Shiraz, and Gorgan) Iran, during 2017 and 2018 growing seasons. Morphological traits and yield of seven dual purpose sorghum...

   In order to evaluate the productivity potential of some bread wheat varieties and promising lines under no-till rainfed condition two different on-farm trials were conducted in cold (Sonqor) and warm (Sarpol-e Zahab) regions of Kermanshah province during 2017-18 cropping season. In the cold condition, 12 winter genotypes and in the warm condition 32 spring genotypes were evaluated for grain ...

Saffron (Crocus sativus L.) is one of the most important economical crops in Iran. The present study was conducted to evaluate the morphological characteristics and yield of saffron corms in six regions of Talesh city, Guilin province (Iran) with different altitudes. The studied regions were considered as treatments and the obtained data were analyzed based on a nested design. The results showe...

    Abstract:   This research was conducted to investigate the effect of sowing date on growth and yield of five rapeseed (Brassica napus L.) cultivars. The experimental design consisted of four randomized complete blocks (CRDB) in a split-plot arrangement. Four convetional sowing dates (11 September, 27 September, 12 October and 27 October) as main plots and five rapeseed cultivars (RGS00...

This study was conducted to evaluate the quantitative and qualitative characteristics and grain yield stability of 10 promising lines of rice, compared to cultivar Khazar as the checking variety, in Rasht, Roudsar and Talesh cities of Guilan province, Iran, in three years. The experiment was conducted using a randomized complete block design with three replications. Characteristics such as grai...
