drought stress is considered as the most important environmental abiotic stress, affecting grain yield of crop plants especially in arid and semi arid regions. increasing and utilization of the genetic diversity can be a useful strategy in breeding for drought resistance. in this study, twenty iranian durum wheat landraces along with two check cultivars were evaluated in a randomized complete b...

compound of 5-aminolevulinic acid (5-ala) has herbicide behavior in high concentration. while, it acts as growth regulator at low concentrations and causes resistance to various stresses incluing cold and salibity. therefore the exogenous application of 5-aminolevulinic acid was investigated to induce cold stress tolerance in young soybean plants (glycine max l.). the experiment was conducted a...

Study about Fracture Mechanics and the root cause of fracture in order to estimates lifetime for Mechanical parts in designing process and manufacturing have tremendous role in this realm. Stress intensity factor comes into design which not only is dependent to geometry also extremely to load condition; for instance, it is important in failure processes (brittle and ductile Materials) or to pre...

Abstract Effects of water stress on root and leaf growth rates and their relationships with yield under normal and water stress conditions were examined at the Greenhouse and Research Field of Faculty of Agriculture, Kerman University, Iran, using seven maize cultivars including SC-404, SC-704, BC-666, TC-647, DC-370, Jeta and Kordona. During a period of 14 days, water stress at -0.4 MPa was ...

abstract many uses of landscape and important roll of ground covers aspect turfgrasses caused extensive of this plant in the cities. this study focuses on shoot responses and tolerance of native and commercial turf grasses under drought stress in a factorial experiment based on unbalanced completely random design on the year 2006. the specious that we used in this experiment included (i) commer...

to study of genetic diversity of rapeseed genotypes using multivariate methods under normal and drought stress conditions, 16 genotypes were evaluated using a randomized complete blocks design with three replications in razi university in 2007-08 cropping season. factor analysis under normal condition showed that nine factors explained 89.05 percentage of total data variation, and under drought...
