background and objectives: infunction of the photosynthetic apparatus of halophytes plays an important role in their salinity tolerance. kochia as a halophyte, is of high ability in biomass production in salinity stress conditions. thus study photosynthesis and the related factors salinity stress can provide appropriate physiological view for better understanding of the plant mechanisms of in s...

Abstract In this study, a 2×3 factorial design  with two levels of  shrimp density (25 and 50 shrimp per m-2) and three  levels of   red algae density (0, 200 and 400g per m-2) was applied to calculate  nitrogen and phosphorous budgets in integrated culture of Litopenaeus vannamei with Gracilaria corticata  during 45 days under zero water exchange system. Juvenile of L.vannamei (5.82 ± 0.11 g...

BACKGROUND: One of limitation factor in agricultural plants production in dry areas, supply requires water. Also nutrition crop management is a necessary strategy for achieve sustainable agriculture. OBJECTIVES: Current study was conducted to assessment the effects of different irrigation regimes and several amount of nitrogen fertilizer on seed nutrition...

this study was performed in order to evaluate the effects of drought stress and nitrogen fertilizer on phenology, morphology and yield of four cultivars of chickpea. this experiment was performed in a split-factorial using randomized complete block design with three replications. drought stress treatment stood in main plots (in three levels) consisting of no drought stress (control), moderate d...

in order to study the effect of drought stress and harvesting stages on quantitative and qualitative yields of coriander (coriandrum sativum l.) this experiment was conducted on split plot based on a randomized completely block design with 3 replications in torbat-e heydariyeh university, iran, during growing season of 2010-2011. treatments were drought stress (in three levels no stress: contro...

in order to study the effects of drought stress and nitrogen (n) levels on grain yield, yield components and water use efficiency of grain corn (sc.704), a field experiment was conducted in 2009 growing season. the experiment was split-plot based on randomized complete block design arrangement and four replicates. main plots were three irrigation levels included optimum irrigation (i1), moderat...

decreasing water loss and increasing the irrigation times are basic methods to develop agriculture, success in natural recourse projects, minimize the stress to planted bushes in natural fields and increase the productivity of soil and water sources. the use of super absorbent is one of these strategies to achieve these goals. the main purpose of this research was to study the effect of super a...
