Evaluation of Diversity and Traits Correlation in Spring Wheat Cultivars under Drought Stress
<p>In order to study of diversity and classify agro-morphological characters under normal irrigation and drought stress in spring wheat cultivars, 20 cultivars were evaluated in the research farm of University of Tabriz, Iran. According to the results, significant correlation was found between...

According to the results, significant correlation was found between grain yield and number of spikes per plant, number of tiller per plant, number of fertile tillers, spike length, root length, root number, root volume, root diameter and root dry weight under both conditions.

In drought stress condition the first factor justified 69.52% of total variation and was identified as yield factor.
