abstract water is a main factor in production of crops. optimizing the usage of water is essential especially in iran which is a dry and semi-dry country. investigation on the effect of different irrigation treatments on chilo suppressalis walker (lep.: crambidae), as the most destructive rice pest, can be an efficient strategy in optimizing usage of water in integrated crop management (icm). i...

Background & Aim: Drought stress, as a main abiotic stress, has a significant influence on growth and metabolic activities of plant species. In this study, the influence of reduced irrigation on dry herbage, essential oil yield, and chemical components of two thyme species were investigated. Experimental: This study was done in an experimental greenhouse, I.A.U., Shahrekord Branch, Iran at 201...

The present pot experiment was undertaken to investigate the phytoremediation potential of corn and oat in soil. Treatments consisted of four cadmium (Cd) levels (0, 5, 10 and 20 mg l 1) and three irrigation intervals (1, 3 and 7 days), arranged in the form of a complete randomized design with three replications. Corn and oat were harvested after 75 and 90 days, respectively. Transpiration rate...

an experiment was carried out in 2008 to investigate the effects of different irrigation regimes, and chickpea cultivars on chickpea production in the khorramabad lorestan. the experiment was split–plot in a randomized complete block design with 3 replications. supplementary irrigation at 8 levels (1-rainfed without irrigation, 2-irrigation after sowing, 3-irrigation at flowering, 4-irrigation ...

Restricted water resources are a limiting factor for irrigation applications throughout the world. The effects of irrigation regimes (amount) on cotton lint yield are known, but there is little information on the effect of irrigation regimes on seed quality of cotton. In this study, the effects of deficit irrigation after the onset of flowering on lint yield and seed quality of cotton (Gossypiu...
