recently, application of sa has increased to improve plants resistance to stresses such as drought. hence, to investigate sa effects on morphophysiological characteristics of fennel(foeniculum vulgare mill.) under drought stress, a split plot experiment based on latin square design with three replications was carried out at research farm of shahid bahonar university of kerman in 2012. three lev...

In this study, the reaction of germination and plantlet growth different chickpea cultivars (Arman, Azad, Binalood and Hashem) in relation to osmotic stress due to polyethylene glycol solution (-2, -4, -6 and -8bar) and control (distilled water) using factorial design in completely randomized with four replications was evaluated. In this study, there was a significant difference between the dif...

this research was carried out to assess the effect of drought stress on head branch dry weight, photosynthesis, essential oil yield and radical scavenging of rosemary (rosmarinus officinalis l.) in islamic azad university, shoushtar branch, iran during 2010-2011.the experiments were carried out using complete randomized block design with four replications and drought stress levels included cont...

the present study was designed to evaluate the drought tolerance of new sugar beet monogerm hybrids using polyethylene glycol 6000, under in vitro condition. the experiment was carried out as a factorial experiment based on completely randomized design with four replications in sugar beet seed institute, karaj in 2013. 23 new sugar beet monogerm hybrids with two tolerant and normal controls wer...

common vetch ( vicia sativa l.) an annual forage, belonging to the fabaceae family is one of the highly cultivated forage legumes in iran. drought stress is a serious adverse factor that limits plant growth and productivity, inducing a range of physiological as well as biochemical responses in plants. it may also lead to generation of oxygen activated species which in turn result in cell destru...

there are about two of millions rainfed fig trees in estahban. this main location of iran rainfed production is faced with death and destruction as a result of recent droughts and since rain is the only source of water supplied to the trees in rain-fed conditions. the effects of different levels of water stress on the plants stomata and guard cell response were investigated throughout this work...

application of salicylic acid (sa) as a phytohormone has been increased due to resistance to stresses such as drought. the main goal of this experiment was to evaluate the effects of sa on morphological and physiological characteristics of cucumber seedlings under drought stress. for this purpose a factorial trial based on completely randomized design was conducted with 5 levels of sa (0 (contr...
