In this study, genetic variation of 54 barley genotypes comprised of 47 H. vulgare spp. spontaneum genotypes collected from west of Iran along with Reyhan cultivar and six F1 hybrids resulted from cross of Reyhan cultivar with wild barley was evaluated using quantitative and qualitative morphological traits. The results indicated that grain yield had the highest variation as a quantitative trait and grain color had the highest polymorphism as a qualitative trait. Results of principal component analysis revealed that first component with 31.5% of variation (major contributors being days to flowering, days to pollination and days to maturity); as well as second component with 22.18% of variation (major contributors being grain yield, 1000-grain weight, and grain width) were the phenology and the yield components, respectively. The cluster analysis divided the genotypes into four groups. Reyhan cultivar was placed in the first group, F1 hybrids along with three top yielding wild genotypes were allocated to the second groups and genotypes from northwestern of Iran were allocated to the third group and other wild genotypes were allocated to the fourth group. The results showed no heterosis in the hybrids obtained from cultivated × wild barley cross.  }, Keywords = {H. vulgare spp. spontaneum, F1 hybrid, Morphologic traits}, volume = {8}, Number = {2}, pages = {1-13}, publisher = {}, doi = {10.29252/jcpp.8.2.1}, url = {http://jcpp.iut.ac.ir/article-1-2705-en.html}, eprint = {http://jcpp.iut.ac.ir/article-1-2705-en.pdf}, journal = {Journal of Crop Production and Processing}, issn = {2251-8517}, eissn = {2251-8525}, year = {2018} } @article{ author = {Bahalkeh, G.

Main plots contained nine planting dates (November 4th, November 19th, December 3rd, December 18th, January 2nd, January 18th, February 8th, February 23rd and March 9th) and sub plots were the cultivars. According to the Biplot, cultivar Kohdasht had the highest seed yield and medium stability and Khazar1 had the highest stability and medium grain yield. Falat produced the lowest seed yield and Karim produced the most. Planting dates of November 4th and 19th had the highest seed yield and stability, respectively. Kuhdasht and Khazar were the nearest to an ideal genotype and planting date of November 19th was nearest to an ideal planting date. The cultivar Falat and planting date of December 18th were identified as the unsuitable cultivar and planting date.

In order to study the cold tolerance of selected popular rapeseed genotypes in Iran and its relationship with SSR markers, this research was conducted in two separate experiments. In the first experiment 24 genotypes of rapeseed were exposed to 25˚C (as control) and 5˚C (as cold stress) treatments at seedling stage. Ten days after implementing cold treatment (about 30 days after sowing), an array of morphological and physiological characteristics were measured. A wide genetic variation was observed among genotypes for the measured traits. The maximum of the genetic diversities of morphological characters in cold and non-stress conditions  (60.77 and 62.22, respectively) was observed for the root dry weight. Cluster analysis classified genotypes into four groups based on the measured characters and CR3198 was the genotype identified as cold tolerant at seedling stage. This genotype indicated the greatest root length (18.25 cm), root dry weight (0.3 g), SPAD value (39.71) and Fv/Fm (0.79) and the smallest electrolyte leakage (13.02) under cold stress (5˚C) treatment. Cold tolerant genotypes were characterized by a high seedling vigor. In the second experiment relationships between ten pairs of SSR markers and cold-related traits were investigated. Results of binary logistic regression showed that some SSR markers were associated with shoot and root dry weight and cold stress tolerance index. Three SSR markers including Na10-B08, Na12-E09 and Ra2-E11 were found to be related to cold stress tolerance index of rapeseed at seedling stage.

Foliar application is one of the fast and effective methods for meeting plants nutrition requirement, especially in the critical stages of growth. In this study the effect of iron chelate (Fe-EDDHA) and urea, each in three levels of 0, 0.5 and 1% was evaluated in ‘Sultana’ grapevine in a 10-years old vineyard under a factorial desing based on  randomized complete block in Bahareh village of Malayer city, west of Iran, in 2016. Trees were sprayed  during three stages, including of one week befor flowering and two and five weeks after corolla abscision. The fruit harvesting was done in mid-September based on maturity index for measurement of certain qualitative and quantitative characters of fruits. The highest fruit set percentage and yield was achieved in 1% urea in combination with 1% Fe and the lowest of these indices were observed in control plants. Moreover, urea and iron chelate, and their interaction, significantly (P ≤ 0.01) influenced total soluble solid (TSS), titratable acidity, total phenol, anthocyanin and ascorbic acid in ‘Sultana’ grapevine fruits. The maximum TSS of berry was obtained with 1% Fe solely or in combination with urea at 0.5% and 1% concentrations, indicating the key role of Fe in TSS increasing of berry. Flavonoid and total phenol contents were higher in the presence of 0.5 and 1% of Fe, compared to other treatments. The highest anthocyanin content was achieved with application of 0.5% of Fe. The results showed that while application of urea and iron in 1% concentrations are necessary for a greater fruit yield, a higher quality of fruit is brought about with  application of urea at a moderate concentration in combination with Fe at the highest examined level.  }, Keywords = {Grapevine, Spray, Nutrients, Total phenol, Yield}, volume = {8}, Number = {2}, pages = {61-78}, publisher = {}, doi = {10.29252/jcpp.8.2.61}, url = {http://jcpp.iut.ac.ir/article-1-2677-en.html}, eprint = {http://jcpp.iut.ac.ir/article-1-2677-en.pdf}, journal = {Journal of Crop Production and Processing}, issn = {2251-8517}, eissn = {2251-8525}, year = {2018} } @article{ author = {NajafiMirak, T. and Dastfal, M. and Andarzian, B. and Farzadi, H. and Bahari, M. and Zali, H.}, title = {Stability Analysis of Grain Yield of Durum Wheat Promising Lines in Warm and Dry Areas Using Parametric and Non-Parametric Methods}, abstract ={The stability of yield performance is one of the most desirable characters of a genotype to be released as a variety, which allows the developed varieties to be adopted in large areas.
