This study was conducted in the Kordofan region of Sudan during 2011–12. It was devoted to the morphology associated to the juvenile development and performance of tree species of Capparaceae and Combretaceae in a nursery and early field growth. The nursery experiment was conducted to study morphological characters to identify seedlings of tree species under study. Seedlings were transplanted t...

wormwood sagebrush (artemisia sieberi besser) is one of the most widely distributed shrub species in iran and turkistan steppes, its establishment on dry lands has generally been proven difficult because of low seedling vigor, inability to compete with herbaceous species, poor seed quality, and altered edaphic conditions. in order to evaluation of planting methods and seedling establishment, se...

the effects of 450-days of flooding on morphological and gas exchanges responses were investigated under controlled conditions for populus deltoides (colon 77.51) and taxodium distichum seedlings. seedlings were subjected to three outdoor treatments: not flooded (control), flooded to 3 cm above the soil surface (shallow flooded), and flooded to 15 cm above the soil surface (deep flooded). flood...

a major portion of the iranian fig (ficus carica) industry is located in high-salinity regions, and salinity is an important limiting factor in the production of this fruit. the present study was conducted to investigate the changes of leaf antioxidant-enzyme activity, proline and total protein content in two fig cultivars with two leaf shapes: ‘anjir sabz’ with lobate and palmate leaves, and ‘...

wild almond (amygdalus scoparia) is one of the most important species that provides a variety of ecological functions in the zagros forest ecosystem. in this study, we investigated the effects of some seed treatments on the survival and growth of amygdalus scoparia after seed planting at different aspects and elevations under natural conditions. the seed pretreatments consisted in soaking them ...
