The Anina Mountains is one of the areas where the field literature indicates a whole variety of orchid species. The purpose of this paper was to evaluate the variability of the flowers morphological features of six orchid species identified in this area. The identified species were divided into two groups considering the appearance of the lip: species with three - lobed lip and species with the lip composed of two parts. The variability of the features was assessed by biometric measurements made during the flowering season of species. The analyzed features were divided into two groups: the general morphological features of the flowers and the elements of the flowers morphological features. The general morphological features of the flowers had the highest variability in all analyzed species.

In the present paper, we have taken into study a collection consisting of autumn barley in order to evaluate quantitative drought resistance criteria. The genotipe were tested in non stressed and stressed conditions. Some drought tolerance indices, Stress Tolerance Index (STI), stress tolerance (TOL), Stress Susceptibility Index (SSI) and Mean Productivity (MP) were used. The indices were adjusted based on grain yield under stress (Ys) and non-stress (Yp) conditions. There were significant differences for all criteria among the genotypes. The significant negative corelations of Ys with Yp, distinct significant and positive with MP, distinct significant and negative with TOL, ISS and distinct significant positive with STI.YP it was corelated distinct significant with MP. TOL,ISS. Genotypes were significantly different for their yield under stress and non-stress conditions. This study was conducted to assess the selection criteria for identifying drought tolerant genotypes and high-yielding genotypes in drought stress and non-stress conditions.
