Evaluation performance of Some Lentil (Lens esculenta L.) Genotypes under irrigated and rain-fed agriculture conditions


Abstract in English

The research was conducted at Abo-Jarash farm, faculty of agriculture, Damascus university during the two growing season 2011-2012 and 2012-2013 in order to evaluate genetic variability of some lentils genotypes based on some physiological and productivity traits associated with drought tolerance. The experiment was laid out according to factorial randomized complete block design with three replications.
