in order to compare photosynthetic features of triticale, bread wheat, and barley under water deficit conditions, this experiment was carried out in kurdistan province in western iran. four genotypes of triticale, three cultivars of bread wheat, and a new variety of barley were compared under well watered (ψsoil= -3 bars) and soil water deficit (ψsoil= -12 bars) conditions in a randomized compl...

water deficit is an important factor limiting crop production worldwide. drought stress can be managed by improving the availability of soil moisture conserved and selecting drought tolerant genotypes. several physiological indices including stomatal conductance (kl), relative water content (rwc), leaf temperature (tl) and crop temperature stability (cts) along with yield, its components and se...

Water has an important role in creating pollution problems in the mining regimes influencing the surrounding surface environment. The purpose of this study is to make an assessment of groundwater quality in an underground mine site in Portugal with a view of determining the pollution potential of groundwater. In the corresponding surface area of this underground mine, intersec...

Leafless cut Superstar roses (Rosa hyb.) were kept in a 1% sucrose solution. During the first few days of treatment, the abscisic acid content and the water deficit in the petals was higher in treated flowers than in controls kept in water. Later and up to the termination of the flower's life, ABA content and water deficit values were lower in petals of sucrose-treated flowers than in controls....

Soybean farming has faced several losses in productivity due to drought events in the last few decades. However, plants have molecular mechanisms to prevent and protect against water deficit injuries, and transcription factors play an important role in triggering different defense mechanisms. Understanding the expression patterns of transcription factors in response to water deficit and to envi...

water deficit, ultraviolet radiation and carbon dioxide enrichment are the most important environmental factors in global climate change. this research was conducted in tarbiat modares university, research greenhouse and the objective of that was to study the effects of three levels of carbon dioxide (500, 900 and 1300 ppm), uv-radiation (uv-a, b and c with intensity of 18, 25 and 40 µw.cm2 res...

introduction: lack of water and deterioration in the quality of soil and water resources are considered to be the prime cause of reduced crop yield in arid and semi-arid regions ‘more crop per drop’ by trickle irrigation, deficit irrigation, and uncommon water are the best strategies for mitigating water crises. different irrigation management strategies are needed to increase production in dif...
