This study analyzed the vertical distribution of gravimetric water content (GWC), relative water content (RWC), and equivalent water thickness (EWT) in winter wheat during heading and early ripening stages, and evaluated the position of leaf number at which Vegetation Indexes (VIs) can best retrieve canopy water-related properties of winter wheat. Results demonstrated that the vertical distribu...

abstract three pear genotypes (nazkeh, lasoreh and qevilah), grown in 2l containers, were studied under four irrigation regimes in order to evaluate the leaf relative water content (rwc), photosynthesis, leaf gas exchanges and plant dry weight induced by water stress. control treatment everyday was irrigation. irrigation was practiced when soil water potential reached at -0.4, -0.8, and -1.2 mp...

Water retention is important in forest ecosystem services. The heterogeneity analysis of water-retention capacity and its influencing factors great significance for the construction functional areas, restoration vegetation, protection ecosystems Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei region. A total 1366 records concerning canopy layer, litter soil layer this region were obtained from 193 literature published 1...

paclobutrazol was utilized to analyze its role in water stress amelioration and post drought recovery of container-grown pear ( pyrus communis cv. biroti ) saplings. following planting, paclobutrazol was applied as soil drench at concentration of 0, 0.15 and 0.3 mg per pot. three months following planting, saplings were subjected to three water stress treatments of: 0, -0.4 and -0.8 mpa. contro...

Correct identification of the true bay leaf (Laurus nobilis) and its substitutes is important not only for the quality control of the products, but also for the safety of the consumers. L. nobilis is often substituted or confused with other species, such as Cinnamomum tamala, Pimenta racemosa, Syzygium polyanthum, and Umbellularia californica. In the present study, the potential of gas chromato...

Introduction: The primary involvement of the parotid duct in rhinosporidiosis is very rare in clinical practice. Here, we present a case of rhinosporidiosis primarily involving the parotid duct, which was successfully excised through transparotid and transoral approaches.   Case Report: A 51-year-old male presented with a painless progressive sw...

BACKGROUND AND AIMS The major objective was to identify plant traits functionally important for optimization of shoot growth and nitrogen (N) economy under drought. Although increased leaf N content (area basis) has been observed in dry environments and theory predicts increased leaf N to be an acclimation to drought, experimental evidence for the prediction is rare. METHODS A pedigree of 200...

The aim of this research was to evaluate the quality and photosynthetic metabolism of "uvaia" seedlings (Eugenia pyriformis Cambess.) on different substrates and water regimes. The seeds were sown in tubes of 50 x 190 mm in the following substrates: Sand (S), Latosol + Sand (L + S) (1:1), Latosol + Sand + Semi Decomposed Poultry Litter (L + S1 + PL) ( 1:1:0.5), Latosol + Sand + Semi Decomposed ...

evaluating of some physiological indices for recognizing water deficit effects, selecting water deficit tolerant oilseed rape genotypes and also evaluation of drought effects on seed and oil yields and its components were the goals of this study. the experiment was conducted as factorial based on a randomized complete blocks design with three replications in east azarbaijan research center for ...
