The experiment was coucted in RCBD with three replicates a in two coitions including: drought ress a control with nine cultivars of three different species during two successive seasons a in Experimental farm of Razavi Khorasan Agricultural a Natural Resources Research Centre (Mashhad- Iran). The results of combined analysis of variances showed that drought ress final plant height, seed yield, number of seeds per pod a number of lateral branches was significantly affected uer water ress at % level a for number of pods per plant at 5% level, while the 000 seeds weight was not significant affected. Comparing cultivars average yield showed that Hyola 40, Hyola 330 of Brassica napus, respectively with a kg/ha had maximum seed yield. Whereas, Lurace a Bp. 8 of B. juncea with a kg/ha had minimum seed yield. In total, in this udy cultivars of B. napus showed more resiance to drought ress in terminal growth duration in comparing with cultivars of B. rapa a B. juncea a had more yield.

4 Am-Euras. J. Agric. & Environ. Sci., (3): , 20 Reasons of this difference uer drought ress coition may be due to the reduction of soil moiure orage, pod no per plant, seeds per pod, number of lateral branches a plant height. These reduction caused shorten of flowering period, non-fertilization of some flowers a reduction of photosynthetic resources [0-2]. In the 2 year, the reduction of measured traits was higher than year. In other words, year effect on measured traits was significant (Tables, 2). Rate of precipitation of 2 year was 65.5% lower than year. Effect of cultivar was significant (P 0.0). Means comparison of simple effects (Table 2) showed that Hyola 40, Hyola 330 from B. napus species had the highe seed yield equal to a kg/ha, respectively. Larace a B.p8 cultivars as B. juncea species had the lowe seed yield (547.2a kg/ha, respectively). Leaf area duration, longer flowering period a seed formation, more 000 seed weight, highe number of seed per pod a higher productivity potential at different climate of B. napus cultivars than B. juncea a B. rapa cultivars are the main causes for higher seed yield of B. napus cultivars. These results are compatible with other udies reported by [3, 3, 5]. Means comparison of year*cultivars showed (Table 3) that seed yield of Hyola 40 a Larace in year with a 34.7 kg/ha had higher a lower seed yield, respectively. However, in 2 year Hyola 330 with kg/ha a BP.8 with kg/ha had higher a lower seed yield respectively. Seed yield a other cultivar s yield component in 2 year in comparison with year showed reduction. Such reduction may be due to decrease of precipitation a increase of temperature at the terminal growth duration in the 2 year. The interaction between location x cultivar (Table 4) a location x year (Table 5) also showed decrease of seed yield a yield component uer ress coition in comparison with control. Similar results were reported by [3, 3, 6]. Based on this udy s results, cultivars of B. napus are more compatible a have more production potential than cultivars of two other species (B. rapa a B. juncea) for climate coition of uer udy region. Although, we sugge more udies by using other different genotypes in regions that comfort with drought ress to fi a introduce productive cultivars that are resiant to drought ress. REFERENCES.
