Belowground interactions between plant roots, arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMFs), and growth-promoting rhizobacteria (PGPR) can improve growth yield under abiotic stress conditions. A pot factorial experiment based on completely randomized design with three replications was conducted to investigate the effects of AMFs (without inoculation as control, Funneliformis mosseae intraradices) PGPRs c...

abstract in october 2009, in one of the alstroemeria (alatroemeria sp.) greenhouses, located in khorasan razavi province, tospovirus-like symptoms (necrosis) were observed on stems, petioles, flowers and leaves of some plants. sap extracts from these plants were mechanically inoculated to indicator plants. necrotic local lesions were observed on petunia hybrida and chenopodium quinoa. necrotic ...

Lead is a nonessential element that has a negative effect on plant growth and development. Plant symbiosis with arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF) in soils contaminated with heavy metals can affect growth of plant, nutrition and tolerance against heavy metals. In this study, the effect arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi Glomus intraradices on the growth, photosynthetic pigments, protein content, prol...

Considering the crucial focus on plant developments as high yielding, protein, and disease-resistant varieties, in this study, the genetic diversity and nutritional traits of available kidney bean germplasms found in Bangladesh have been evaluated based on seventeen quantitative and six nutritional traits. Analysis of genotypic, phenotypic variance and covariance showed that higher environmenta...

Background and objectives: Eryngium caeruleum M.Bieb. (Syn. Eryngium caucasicum Trautv.)belongs to Apiaceae family. It is found abundantly in northern provinces of Iran as an edible plant. Hundreds of years ago, Eryngium genus was known as a medicinal herb in Persian medicine books which was named “Qaracaane” and the plant’s roots were used in traditi...

a study was performed to study the effect of drought stress on protein changes of five wheat genotypes. wheat genotypes were planted in early november, growing season of 2008-2009. the experiment was carried out in a factotial design with three replications. two drought stress levels (irrigated and non irrigated) and five genotype of wheat (f103-l-1-12//pony/opata, f1.158/fdl//blo/3/sh14414/cro...

Mathematical models that simulate crop development are important tools to help growers plan management practices and harvest time for cut flowers such as gladiolus. The objective of this work was validate the PhenoGlad model State Paraná, determining planting date marketing Day Dead, quality floral stems. validation carried out through field tests in five towns namely: Cascavel, Dois Vizinhos, ...

The soybean (Glycine max l. merr) is one of oil seed plants from leguminous family. In this study, the effect of gamma radiation on chlorophyll, soluble and insoluble carbohydrate and composition oil seeds were investigated in soybean. Soybean variety J.K was irradiated with 0,100,200 and 300 gamma ray. The treatment and control seeds planed in with four replicates. The highest amount of total ...
