ABSTRACT- Despite the benefits of herbicides, their persistence in soil can harm other plants in next rotations and contaminate ground water. The main purpose of this research is to simulate 2,4-dichlorophenoxyaceticacid(2,4-D) movement in silty clay loam soil using HYDRUS-1D model in a corn root zone. The maximum contaminant level goal, MCLG, of 2,4-D in water resources is 10 ppb. The 3.5 kg a...

drought is common across the south of iran, especially in darab district. accordingly, studying the economic aspects of deficit irrigation technique – that is one of the basic strategies in water saving for reducing water use of cotton as one of the main agricultural products in darab district is essential. in order to investigate the deficit irrigation technique and to determine its economic t...

BACKGROUND: Humic acid is a natural polymeric composition which is produced as a result of decaying organic matters in soil, peat and lignin to increase crop product. OBJECTIVES: Assessment the effect of different irrigation regime and humic acid on red bean production and correlation coefficient between measured traits. METHODS: Cu...

in order to study the effects of different irrigation levels on yield, yield components and drought tolerance of four chickpea cultivars, a farm experiment was conducted in mashhad climatic condition during 2008-2009 growing season. four irrigation levels including: t1= 100% etc (full irrigation), t2= 90% etc (deficit irrigation), t3=80% etc (deficit irrigation) and t4=50% etc (deficit irrigati...

to investigate the relationship between different traits, discover factors affecting this relationship and to identify components of seed yield in cultivated and wild safflower genotypes, this investigation was conducted at isfahan university of technology research farm under two different water regimes during 2008. significant differences were observed between genotypes belonged to the two spe...

Water deficit is a key factor to induce flowering in many woody plants, but reports on the molecular mechanisms of floral induction and flowering by water deficit are scarce. Here, we analyzed the morphology, cytology, and different hormone levels of lemon buds during floral inductive water deficits. Higher levels of ABA were observed, and the initiation of floral bud differentiation was examin...

supplementary irrigation is a key factor in dryland production of lentil (lens culinaris medik.). in order to study the effects of supplementary irrigation on phenological and morphological characters of three lentil (lens culinaris medik.) cultivars, a trial carried out as split block based on randomized complete block design with three replications at research field of agricultural college, f...

some of the morpho-physiological characteristics related to the leaf growth and development of phaseolus vulgaris l. genotypes have been studied in the field conditions at the seed and plant improvement institute (spii). the study was performed as split plot experiment in a randomized complete block design with four replications in well-watered and water deficit conditions with eight genotypes ...
