Drought stress is a major constraint for crop production in arid and semiarid regions, such as Iran. In this study the effect of 5-aminolevolinic acid (ALA), the new plant growth regulator, on Coriander (Corianderum sativum L.) plants under drought stress was studied. The layout was factorial experiment in randomized complete block design (RCBD) with 3 levels of drought stress including stress-...

Water supply in arid and semiarid regions of the world is a serious problem in crop production. Grafting may enhance water stress resistance and plants growth. In order to evaluate the effect of different cucurbit rootstocks (Flexifort, Shintoza and ungrafted cucumber) and water stress (40, 60, 90% of field capacity) on morphologic traits and yield of greenhouse cucumber (Cucumis sativus L. var...

To study the effects of drought stress and soil application of beet bagasse on biochemical characteristics, photosynthetic pigments content and antioxidant activity of peppermint (Mentha piperita L.) leaf, a pot experiment was conducted in 2015 at Ferdowsi University of Mashhad. The experiment was carried out as a factorial experiment based on completely randomized design with four treatments o...

Water deficiency is an important factor for plant growth in arid environments. Foliar application of methanol in C3 plants is believed to be more important in water stress tolerance. In order to evaluate the effects of foliar application of methanol on photosynthetic features, chlorophyll fluorescence and chlorophyll content of lentil under water deficit stress, a factorial experiment in comple...

In order to investigate the effects of seed priming by salicylic acid (SA) and Paclobutrazol (Pa) on parsley, as a medicinal plant, under drought stress, a factorial experiment, based on completely randomized design with four replications, was performed at the Research Greenhouse and Laboratory of Department of Horticulture, University of Mohaghegh Ardabili. Experimental treatments included fiv...
