The purpose of the work was to assess the combined effect of drought and salinity (50, 100, 200 mМ NaCl) on the mesoand ultrastructure of mesophyll cells of wheat seedlings. Stress development was estimated by a decrease in the relative water content (RWC) and CO2-dependent O2 evolution (An) in leaves. The decrease in the RWC and in An occurred rapidly in the absence of salt in the substrate an...

Objective:Investigating the microbes and interactions of the beneficial symbiotic relationships between the components of the system ecology in the food chains and life cycles is one of the modern sustainable agriculture topics. In this regard, to evaluate the effects of bacteria and vermicompost on morphological characteristics and yield of soybean an experiment was conducted as split plot in...

abstract in order to investigate the effect of irrigation and nitrogen fertilizer, on yield peanut plant, with furrow method of irrigation and water use efficiency (wue) in management to create a proper and better production, split plot experiment was over taken as in complete randomize blocks with three replications and main plot with 6, 12 and 18 day interval irrigation and no irrigation and ...

the objective of this study was evaluation of salt tolerance of elite forage sorghum lines in laboratory and field conditions. salinity treatments were 5, 10, 15, 20, 25, 30 decisimens per meter in laboratory and distilled water as control. lines were kfs1, kfs2, kfs3, kfs4, mfs1, mfs2 and lfs56. the lines also cultivated in saline and non saline field conditions during 2004-2005. electrical co...

in order to study the effects of biofertilizers and different water volume per irrigation on vegetative characteristics and seed yield of sesame (sesamum indicum l.), an experiment was conducted at the research greenhouse of faculty of agriculture, ferdowsi university of mashhad, during 2009. this experiment was conducted as factorial based on randomized complete block design with three replica...

Salinity-induced modulations in growth, photosynthetic pigments, relative water content (RWC), lipid peroxidation, photosynthesis, photosystem II efficiency, and changes in activity of various antioxidative enzymes were studied in the halophyte Salvadora persica treated with various levels of salinity (0, 250, 500, 750, and 1000 mM NaCl) to obtain an insight into the salt tolerance ability of t...

drought stress is considered as one of the main important factors reducing field crop yield, thus leading researchers to study the related physiological characteristics may reduce drought effects. this experiment was conducted in research farm of seed and plant improvement institute (spii) in karadj, arak and jolgeh rokh for three cropping seasons (2008-2011) to evaluate drought tolerance of br...
