Osmotic Adjustment and the Growth Response of Seven Vegetable Crops following Water-deficit Stress
Growth-chamber studies were conducted to examine the ability of seven vegetable crops-‘Blue Lake’ bean (Phaseolus vulgaris L.), ‘Detroit Dark Red’ beet (Beta vulgaris L.), ‘Burgundy’ okra (Abelmoschus esculentus (Moench), ‘Little Marvel’ pea (Pisum sativum L.), ‘California Wonder’ bell pepper (Capsicum annuum L.), ‘New Zealand’ spinach (Spinacia oleracea L.), and ‘Beefsteak’ tomato (Lycopersico...
متن کاملMechanisms of drought response in Thuja occidentalis L. I. Water stress conditioning and osmotic adjustment.
We investigated the extent of osmotic adjustment and changes in transpiration rate that occur in response to repeated cycles of water deficit stress in 6-year-old Thuja occidentalis L. (eastern white cedar) trees. Groups of trees were water-stress conditioned by repeated exposure to predetermined thresholds of nonlethal water stress by withholding water until the predawn water potential fell to...
متن کاملOsmotic Adjustment in Cotton (Gossypium hirsutum L.) Leaves and Roots in Response to Water Stress.
The relative magnitude of adjustment in osmotic potential (psi(s)) of water-stressed cotton (Gossypium hirsutum L.) leaves and roots was studied using plants raised in pots of sand and grown in a growth chamber. One and three water-stress preconditioning cycles were imposed by withholding water, and the subsequent adjustment in solute potential upon relief of the stress and complete rehydration...
متن کاملResponse of Marigold Flower Yield and Yield Components to Water Deficit Stress and Nitrogen Fertilizer
In order to study the effect of water deficit stress and different nitrogen levels on flower yield, yield components and water use efficiency of Calendula officinalis L., an experiment was conducted as split plot based on randomized complete block design with three replications, at research field of Islamic Azad University, Birjand branch in 2009. In this experiment, irrigation treatments (irri...
متن کاملPlant Response to Water-deficit Stress
Drought, a period of abnormally dry weather, results in soil-water deficit and subsequently plant-water deficit. The lack ofwater in the environment constitutes a stresswhen it induces an injury in the plant. Water deficit in the plant disrupts many cellular and whole plant functions, having a negative impact on plant growth and reproduction. Crop yields are reduced by 69% on average when plant...
