introduction the plant hormones such as salicylic acid and gibberellin can affect the quantity and quality of crops. external application of plant growth regulators as a strategy for improving salt tolerance in plants is discussed. foreign salicylic acid can regulate antioxidant enzyme activity and increase plant resistance to abiotic stresses. salicylic acid reduction due to ethylene through t...

Drought is one of the limiting factor in common bean, development of common bean varieties that adapted to drought situations is the main focus for improving food crops. In this study, 25 genotypes of common beans (Phaseolus vulgaris L.) were grown under drought stress and non-stress conditions. The field work was conducted at Melkassa Agricultural Research Center during the off-season that lai...

Drought stress is one of the most important environmental stresses affecting plant growth, yield and crop production around the world. It is believed that arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi are used for protecting plants against drought damage.Vesicular-arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi have been used in recent years to cope with water stress in many plants. In this study, the relationship between water d...

introduction safflower is native to iran, and is cultivated for high adaptability, low water requirement, resistance to drought and useful unsaturated fatty acid (ashri et al., 1977). identification of effective agronomic traits and relationship between them are important aims under water stress conditions. among these characters, grain yield is the most important trait that is genetically poly...

BACKGROUND The phenolic composition of grapes is key when making decisions about harvest date and ensuring the quality of grapes. The present study aimed to investigate the relationship between the detailed phenolic composition of grapes and the agronomic parameters and hyperspectral indices, with the latter being measured via field radiometry techniques. RESULTS Good correlations were found ...
