to determine the most important traits affecting root yield and sugar content in monogerm germplasm of sugar beet, 75 monogerm f1 hybrids were evaluated in three separate experments conducted in randomized complete block desing (rcb) with four replications at abdo–al–rasoul research farm, karaj in 2004. root yield, root length, root diameter, crown height, crown diameter, sugar content, α–amino...

in order to study the effect of different water potential on anethum graveolens l. an experiment was conducted. this study was carried out based on completely randomized design with three replications. in this experiment, morpho-physiological characteristics were assessed under hydroponic. stress was established with peg 6000, and drought potentials were: 0 (control), -1.5, -2, -2.5 and -3 bar....

Root hairs are long tubular outgrowths that form on the surface of specialized epidermal cells. They are required for nutrient and water uptake and interact with the soil microflora. Here we show that the Oryza sativa cellulose synthase-like D1 (OsCSLD1) gene is required for root hair development, as rice (Oryza sativa) mutants that lack OsCSLD1 function develop abnormal root hairs. In these mu...

In this study, two isolates of genus Microdochium (W2 and B26) was isolated from the roots of healthy barley plants in agricultural fields from Kermanshah province in 2014 and were identified as Microdochium bolleyi based on morphological and molecular characteristics. Dual culture studies revealed that W2 and B26 inhibit 45% and 20% of the radial growth of Ggt in tur...

The fine roots of trees are concentrated on lateral branches that arise from perennial roots. They are important in the acquisition of water and essential nutrients, and at the ecosystem level, they make a significant contribution to biogeochemical cycling. Fine roots have often been studied according to arbitrary size classes, e.g., all roots less than 1 or 2 mm in diameter. Because of the siz...

This study was carried out to evaluate drought stress tolerance in Thymus kotschyanus accessions using a factorial experiment based on a Completely Randomized Design (CRD) with 5 replications during 2013-2014 in Qom, Iran. The first factor was the accession with 17 levels and the second factor was drought stress with three levels of irrigation including 80% (control), 60% and 40% Field Capacity...
