Salt and drought are two major environmental stresses that affect growth and development of plants. In order to study the effects of sodium chloride and polyethylene glycol (6000) on germination characteristics and early seedling growth of redroot pigweed (Amaranthus retroflexus), two completely randomized designs with 4 replications were conducted at Weed Research Laboratory of Bu-Ali Sina Uni...

In order to evaluate on Glutamine Syntetase gene expression as well as amount of protein, chlorophyll and oxidative index of TBARM the experiment has been carried out using Brassica napus (Falcon cv.) in research greenhouse condition. The drought stress treatments were included -0.5, -1, -2, -4 and -6 bar that by using of equivalent water (6.5, 6, 4.7, 3, 1.1 litr respectively) have been irriga...

Water deficit stress is the main limiting factor of crop growth and yield in arid and semi-arid environments. Hyssop (Hyssopus officinalis L.) is one of the most important medicinal plants that have numerous medical uses. In order to study the effect of drought stress on physiological and morphological traits of Hyssop, an experiment based on randomized completely design was conducted with four...

In order to study the effect of seaweed extract and nano-ZnO on germination characteristics of tomato seed, a factorial experiment was conducted based on a randomized complete block design. Preliminary germination and seedling growth tests were performed to determine the best concentration of seaweed extract and nano-ZnO. Experimental treatments included three levels of drought stress (0, 2- an...

Enhanced soil fertility results in plant tolerance against environmental stresses, including drought stress. In order to investigate the effect of different fertilizers on biochemical, quantitative and qualitative characteristics of white radish under drought stress conditions, a split plot experiment was conducted as a randomized complete block design in 2020-21 at University of Hormozgan. Exp...
