introduction lentil with about 28 percent protein occupies the second after soybean. it is one of the major crops in developing countries as a complement to cereals and is an excellent source of protein and amino acids in the diet. results of studies shown that for most crops, including lentil, the occurrence of drought stress in some phenology stages cause irreparable damages to yield. therefo...

introduction drought stress reduces plant growth by affecting various physiological and biochemical processes, such as photosynthesis, respiration, translocation, ion uptake, carbohydrates, nutrient metabolism and growth promoters. garlic (allium sativum l.) is an annual bulb crop that has been cultivated since ancient times and was used as a spice and condiment for many centuries. garlic is an...

to study the effects of different levels of water stress and nitrogen fertilizer on seed yield and yield components of two common bean genotypes (phaseolus vulgaris), an experiment in a split plot factorial based on crbd with four replications was conducted at the research farm of university of tehran (karaj-iran) in 2010. water stress treatments as the main factor included normal irrigation (6...

In this research Standardized Precipitation Index (SPI) in a period of 22 years(1990 to 2011) was used for zoning of climatic and agricultural drought in South Khorasanprovince, Iran. Rainfall data of six synoptic stations were collected and used for evaluationof meteorological drought. Also, reports of some local offices such as natural resources,agriculture, regional water and environment dep...

in this study, the effect of drought stress on morphological and physiological characteristics of wheatgrass and tall fescue was investigated in a factorial-split plot in time arrangement based on a completely randomized design with three replications. after turf establishment, half pots were exposed to drought stress and the half other were completely irrigated. based on the results tall fescu...

some of the morpho-physiological characteristics related to the leaf growth and development of phaseolus vulgaris l. genotypes have been studied in the field conditions at the seed and plant improvement institute (spii). the study was performed as split plot experiment in a randomized complete block design with four replications in well-watered and water deficit conditions with eight genotypes ...
