in order to study the effect of soil compaction on root and shoot growth of wheat plants (shahriar variety), a greenhouse pot experiment was conducted in guilan university. the study design was factorial with completely randomized in three replications. treatments included three compaction levels; (normal compaction, compaction of ten percent and twenty percent) and two type of soil texture (cl...

The effects of different concentrations of Zinc oxide nano particles (ZnONP; 0, 10, 25, 50, 75 and 100 mg L-1) and Humic acid (HA; 0, 50, 100, 500 and 1000 mg L-1) on root length and number, leaf length and number, bulb diameter, and chlorophyll, total phenol, anthocyanin and flavonoid contents were examined under in vitro conditions. Total phenol, flavonoid and anthocyanin contents were signif...

a pot experiment laid out in factorial arranged in completely randomized design with three replications was implemented to evaluate the effects of seed priming in ameliorating salinity stress in sesame (sesamum indicam l.) during seedling development and the early vegetative growth. factors included five priming treatments : control (non priming) , hydropriming, halopriming with nacl, kcl , cac...

This study was carried out to evaluate drought stress tolerance in Thymus kotschyanus accessions using a factorial experiment based on a Completely Randomized Design (CRD) with 5 replications during 2013-2014 in Qom, Iran. The first factor was the accession with 17 levels and the second factor was drought stress with three levels of irrigation including 80% (control), 60% and 40% Field Capacity...

it is well known that sugar beet is sensitive to salinity stress at the germination stage. three separate experiments were conducted to study the effects of salinity on seed germination, plant establishment, and yield of sugar beet genotypes for screening purposes. these included: (a) a laboratory study using four water salinity levels (with ec values < 0.1 as the control, 16, 20, and 24 ds m-1...

introduction: the aim of this in vitro study was to evaluate the correlation between accuracy of root zx electronic foramen locator and root canal curvature. methods and materials: one hundred and ten extracted mandibular molars were selected. access cavity was prepared and coronal enlargement of mesiobuccal canal was performed. a #10 flexofile was inserted into the mesiobuccal canal, and a rad...

the use of nitrogen in nutrient media is essential for growth and helps identify highly productive media for potato (solanum tuberosum l.) micropropagation and adventitious shoot formation. three potato cultivars (agria, marfona and savalan cultivars) were examined for their growth response with medium containing four different levels of kno3 (1, 1.25, 1.5 and 1.75 times as much 1.9 g l-1) and ...

The effect of aqueous smoke extract, derived from Tanacetum parthenium, onin vitro plantlet regeneration from rapeseed (Brassica napus L. cv. Topas)microspore-derived embryos (MDEs) was evaluated in this study. Inoculation ofrapeseed MDEs with the smoke-extract dilutions (1:250, 1:500, 1:1000 and 1:2000)for various times (5, 10 and 15 min) significantly enhanced the percentage ofregenerated pla...
