Iron chlorosis is one of the major abiotic stresses affecting fruit trees and other crops in calcareous soils and leads to a reduction in growth and yield. Usual remediation strategies consist of amending iron to soil, which is an expensive practice, or using tolerant cultivars, which are difficult to develop when not available. To understand the mechanisms underlying the associated physiopathy...

for assessment of drought stress effects on agro characteristics of 30 lines and 6 wheat cultivars and for introducing of drought tolerant and susceptible ones one trial were established using split plot base of randomized complete block design with two replications, main plots were stress and non-stress condition and sub plots contain 30 lines and six wheat cultivars in the check trial, irriga...

in fruit trees damage of frost and freezing is depended to time of chillhng and tree phonological stage. almond (prunus amygdalus b. (and apricot (p. armeniaca l.) cultivars are usually the first fruit trees to bloom and susceptible to damaging frosts in the early spring. a study was conducted on different types of almond and apricot cultivars in order to investigation the main factors related ...

In this research, twenty-two selected almond hybrids with their parents ‘A1-99’ (drought-sensitive) and ‘Tuono’ (relatively tolerant against drought), were investigated for screening drought tolerance using some morphological and physiological traits. This research was carried out in a complete randomized design with three replications at the Temperate Fruit Research Center of Horticultural Sci...

In order to assess relationship between ion transport and variation in growth responses of four canola cultivars under salt stress, four canola cultivars were grown at 0 and 150 mM NaCl for six weeks in hydroponics. Salt stress reduced the shoot and root fresh and dry weights of all canola cultivars. Maximum shoot fresh and dry weights were recorded in Dunkeld under both non-saline and saline c...

Soybean cultivars from maturity groups III-V were grown in Heterodera glycines-infested locations in northeastern and southeastern Kansas from 1991 through 1994. Yield performance and nematode reproduction were significantly (P <0.01) affected by host response to H. glycines and year, whereas effects of cultivars within host response categories and cultivar x year interactions were generally ne...

Flooding is becoming an increasing concern for soybean (Glycine max [L.] Merr.) production worldwide due to the sensitivity of most cultivars grown today flood stress. can stunt plant growth and limit yield, causing significant economic loss. One sustainable approach improve performance under stress develop flood-tolerant cultivars. This study was conducted evaluate genotypes response at three ...

Growing resistant cultivars is the best method of protecting the crops against Potato virus Y (PVY). There are a few sources of PVY resistance/tolerance in tobacco acquired through mass selection, X-ray induced mutagenesis and introgressions from wild Nicotiana species. Here, we compare major sources of PVY resistance/tolerance in inoculation tests using ten PVY isolates collected in Central Eu...
