continual heat stress affects approximately 7 million hectares of wheat in developing countries, while terminal heat stress is a problem in 40% of temperate environments, which cover 36 million hectares throughout the world. heat tolerance is a quantitative and complex trait that doesn’t have much success in direct selection. for this purpose, however, a thorough understanding of physiological ...

1 Wheat Research Center, Bangladesh Agricultural Research Institute, Gazipur, Bangladesh ABSTRACT. Twenty five spring wheat genotypes were evaluated for terminal heat stress tolerance in field environments in the Agro Ecological Zone-11 of Bangladesh, during 2009-2010 cropping season. The experiments were conducted at Wheat Research Centre, Bangladesh Agricultural Research Institute, using rand...

At percent, Zn stress tolerance using novel genetic resources is an important mitigation strategy for plant breeding. In this study, thirty-five durum wheat genotypes with different growth habits were evaluated under normal (non-stress) and Zn deficient stress during the 2014-15 cropping season. A total of ten Zn stress tolerance indices including stress tolerance index (STI), relative zinc-def...

In Anatomy of a Hospital, Ashley (1987) makes an intriguing figurative diagnosis of the hospital organizational life. So it is this hospital culture, supported by many figures, but still intriguing in its essence, and posing threats to whoever would attempt to approach it in an orderly managerial manner. To speak about innovation in a system which is financially burdened, on the one hand, and s...

This paper presents results from a study on the tonal aspects of quantity in Finnish lexically stressed syllables. Fourteen speakers produced a set of 66 utterances where the quantity and structure of the lexically stressed syllable was systematically varied. The tonal aspects of the syllable nucleus and nucleus and coda in case of closed syllables was studied in the framework of the Target App...

current study aimed at determining the most reliable drought tolerant criteria for identification of sugar beet genotypes. a split plot design based on randomized complete block design with three replications was applied at motahari research station, karaj, iran in 2012. two irrigation treatments including normal irrigation after 80-90 mm and irrigation after 270 mm evaporation (stress conditio...

background and objectives: the region of the experiment is located in golestan province, iran, with agriculture subject to various farming conditions (rain-fed and irrigation) and different levels of salinity (more than 38% of golestan’s total land area is salt-affected). the purpose of this study has been to evaluate the stress indices in the selection of tolerant wheat genotypes, not only for...
