Salinity is one of the most brutal environmental stresses limiting the productivity of agricultural crops. In order to determine the effect of humic acid on some morphological and physiological characteristics and uptake of elements by strawberry (Fragaria ananassa Duch. cv. Sabrina) under salinity stress, a greenhouse factorial experiment was conducted with three factors including two treatmen...

Heavy metals (HMs) are hazardous environmental pollutants which by entering the food chain cause harm to humans, plants and other organisms. In order to study the effects of salinity and lead (Pb) and cadmium (Cd) HMs on spinach plant, a factorial, pot experiment, based on complete randomized blocks design, was carried out in 2013 in College of Agriculture, Shahrood University of Technology. Tr...

In order to study the effects of different irrigation regimes and different levels of salinity on the growth parameters of Quinoa (Chenopodium quinoa Willd.), this experiment was performed in the research green house of Water Engineering Department, at f Gorgan University of Agricultural Sciences and Natural Resources, during 2016. The experimental design was a factorial with n a randomized com...

In order to study the effects of inoculation of rhizobium and mycorhizae on the response of alfafa cultivars to different salinity levels a pot experiment was conducted. The experiment was arranged as factorial in a randomized complete block design with three replications. The treatments included three alfafa cultivars (Rehnani, Hamadani and Bami), four levels of salinity (0, 60, 120 and 180 mm...

Basil (Ocimum basilicum L.) belongs to Lamiaceae and is relatively sensitive to salinity. Salinity is one of the most important factors limiting crop production. This study was conducted in a three-replicate completely randomized factorial design to comparative investigate the effects of different concentration of silicon (SiO4-2) application [control (without Si), 1 and 2 mM] and ascorbic acid...
