Cytokinins may reflect soil water status and regulate rice (Oryza sativa L.) grain filling. This study investigated the changes in cytokinin levels in rice plants and their relations with grain filling under alternate wetting and drying irrigation. Two 'super' rice cultivars were field grown. Three irrigation regimes, alternate wetting and moderate soil drying (WMD), alternate wetting and sever...

In this study effect of irrigation managements including irrigation after 100 and 200 mm pan evaporation as normal and deficit irrigation respectively was investigated in Roselle plants. Effects of humic acid (including 0 and 4 kg ha-1) and mycorrhizal inoculants (including Glomus versiforme (GV) and Rhizophagus irregularis (RI)) were also studied on growth, yield and mycorrhizal symbiosis inde...

Optimum irrigation is very important for nursery stock management of F1-hybrid oil palm (Elaeis guineensis Jacq.), constituting a major production cost. Generally, over watering of nursery stock can be a cause of loss of productivity. The aim of this study was to investigate the physiological and biochemical responses of oil palm nursery stock to reduced soil water content (SWC) and during the ...

to better understand the potential for improving biomass accumulation and radiation use efficiency (rUE) of winter wheat under deficit irrigation regimes, in 2006–2007 and 2007–2008, an experiment was conducted at the luancheng Experimental Station of Chinese academy of Science to study the effects of deficit irrigation regimes on the photosynthetic active radiation (Par), biomass accumulation,...

this study was carried out in order to identify the effects of soil water depletion (swd) on monogerm sugar beet (cv. shirin) seed growth trend at different growth stages. an experiment was conducted in randomized complete block design (rcbd) with three replications in ardebil agricultural research station. during 2002 and 2003 cropping seasons, nine treatments including control (irrigation aft...

To optimize irrigation, agronomists need to modulate crop water productivity (CWP) throughout phenology. We compared regulated deficit irrigation (RDI) and sustained (SDI) in chickpea (Cicer arietinum L. var. Blanoro), expecting RDI during vegetative growth (VG) enhance CWP, as opposed flowering (F) pod-filling (PF) stages. The effects of SDI on grain yield, plant height, weight, caliber, pods ...

In order to investigate the effect of deficit irrigation and chemical fertilizers on yield some physiological traits quinoa an experiment was conducted in 2019 as split plot based a randomized complete block design two locations (Mashhad Neishabour). Irrigation included, I0: full irrigation, I1: no at emergence stage, I2: stem elongation I3: flowering I4: seed setting stage. Fertilizer treatmen...

two field experiments were conducted at the research farm of the faculty of agriculture, university of tabriz, iran during 2009-2010 and 2010-2011, to evaluate the response of fennel (foeniculum vulgare l.) landraces to limited irrigation. experiments were arranged as split plot based on randomized complete block design in three replications with irrigation treatments (irrigation after 60, 90, ...
