a field experiment was carried out during 2001 in the experimental fields of sugar beet seed institute in karaj. the objective of this study was to determine the response of some quantitative and qualitative traits of three sugar beet lines subjected to continuous water stress and normal conditions. three sugar beet lines 7219-p.69, bp-karaj and 7112 as tolerant, semi tolerant and sensitive to ...

A biotic stresses can directly or indirectly affect the physiological status of an organism by altering its metabolism, growth, and development. In order to study the effect of drought stress on Citrullus colocynthis samples a factorial experiment was conducted in Horticultural science Department of University of Tehran in 2013. The first factor was two accessions of Citrullus colocynthis (Yazd...

Drought stress is one of the most important factors limiting the survival and growth of plants in the different habitats of Iran. Detailed knowledge about the ecophysiological responses of native plants to drought stress could contribute to the success of breeding and re-vegetation programs. Six wild populations of Anthemis tinctoria, were assigned to four drought treatments, i.e. well...

The effects of 2 concentrations of kinetin, i.e., 2 and 4 mM together with 2 levels of drought stress, i.e., moderate (35% soil saturation capacity) and severe (20% soil saturation capacity) were investigated on the growth parameters of tomato including fresh and dry leaf weight, leaf number, leaf surface area, fruit number, fruit weight, and enzymatic antioxidants. To this end, first tomato pl...

seedling characteristics of different sunflower (helianthus annus l.) cultivars under drought stress and inoculation with the azospirillum lipoferum in a spilt-factorial layout based on randomized complete block design with three replications were evaluated. treatments included dehydration stress (seed produced on maternal plants which irrigated after 60 (desirable irrigation), 120 (medium stre...

investigation of physiological responses to water deficit in sesame (sesamum indicum l.) genotypes can help to identify effective mechanisms of plant resistance to stress. therefore, chlorophyll content, proline, soluble carbohydrates, net photosynthesis rate, stomatal conductance, maximum quantum efficiency (fv/fm), plant height and shoot dry weight in a complete block factorial pot experiment...

in this study the response of 9 rapeseed genotypes were evaluated at the seedling stage using different irrigation levels (50, 70 and 100% fc). a factorial experiment based on rcbd was conducted in the research greenhouses of urmia university with four replications during summer of 2013. some physiological traits such as relative water content, stomatal conductance, transpiration, photosynthesi...
