Abstract
Selection of breeding methods for plant genetic improvement largely depends on the genetic basis of selected traits. This research was carried out in order to study the genetic parameters of phenological and morphological traits , yield and yield components of maize using generation mean analysis of inbred lines derived from crosses KE72012 (P1) × K1263 / 1 (P2) inbred lines. This study was conducted at Torough Station of Khorasan Razavi Agriculture and Natural Resources Research Center, Mashhad, Iran, during 2012. Six maize generations include BC2, BC1, F2, F1, P2 and P1 was evaluated in a randomized complete block design (RCBD) with three replications. Analysis of variance showed higher dominance gene effects than additive effects. Average dominance gene effects (H / D) ½ in all measured traits, showed complete and over dominance gene effects indicating the importance of dominance effect in studied traits. A simple additive-dominance model performed using weighted least square analysis. Results showed not it’s adequacy for traits, indicating the importance of epistatic effects in controlling genetic variations. Broad sense heritability for all measured traits in crosses KE72012 (P1) × KE1263 / 1 (P2) ranged between 0.10 to 0.88 and the range of narrow sense heritability in this cross was between 0.02 to 0.59. Estimation of number of genes controlling grain yield showed that the one to five genes are involved in KE72012 (P1) × K1263 / 1 (P2).

Abstract
In order to select the most tolerant genotypes of melon to drought stress, 30 landraces and cultivars were evaluated at Broujerd Agricultural Research Station in 2018. Under normal and drought stress conditions genotypes were evaluated in a randomized complete block design with three replications. Drought stress was started when fruits appeared. Based on the rate of evaporation in class A evaporation pan (normal conditions: 50 mm, stress conditions: 100 mm), irrigation was carried out. The results of this study showed that Yield under drought stress and normal conditions showed high correlations with stress tolerance indices such as MP (Mean Productivity), GMP (Geometric Mean Productivity) and STI (Suitability Tolerance Index). The broad sense hereditary under drought stress condition varied from 81% for yield per plant to 97% for the fruit lenght. Under drought stress condition, the highest percentage of genetic coefficient of variation (GCV) was observed for Weight of flesh and skin (49 percent) and the lowest for days to maturity (4 percent). Based on the PCA biplot, the genotypes of Mamaghani, Rish-baba, Garmak and Japuni melon were identified as tolerant and Mazandrani, Uzbak1 and Ginsen Makuwa were classified as sensitive to drought stress. These results could be useful for breeding purposes and the genotypes can be crossed with each other to produce segregating populations and selection of the best plants.
