Drought stress is one of the most important factors limiting production in the agricultural sector. Due to the need to use smart agriculture adapted to climate change, the use of drought-tolerant alternative plants with high water use efficiency is of great importance. Foxtail millet (Setaria italica L.) is one of the important drought tolerant fodder and food grains in semi-arid regions. In th...

Drought stress is one of the most important environmental stresses in reduce of growth and plants production. Determination of resistance mechanisms to environmental stress in plant improvement is very important. In order to , experiment with osmotic potentials of PEG (zero (control), -4, -8 & -12 bar) and alfalfa genotypes was done. The selected alfalfa genotypes namely, Yazdi(tolerant), Niksh...

Trittipyrum is an important annual grass plant for forage production in arid and semiarid regions. The effects of drought stress on Trittipyrum lines were evaluated in the field experiment in a randomized complete block design with a factorial experiment involving three replications in 2012. Treatments were water stress (field capacity (FC), 75% of FC, 50% of FC and 25% of FC throughout the exp...
