in order to study the effects of seed-bacterial priming (inoculation) on germination and early growth of alfalfa under salinity stress conditions, an experiment was conducted at seed research laboratory and greenhouse of college of agriculture, university of tehran in karaj (iran) in 2011. the experiment was arranged as a factorial in completely randomized design (crd) with three replications. ...

To investigate Fe deficiency tolerance in tomato cultivars, quantification of proteins and genes involved in Fe metabolism and antioxidant mechanisms were performed in "Roggusanmaru" and "Super Doterang". Fe deficiency (Moderate, low and -Fe) significantly decreased the biomass, total, and apoplastic Fe concentration of "Roggusanmaru", while a slight variation was observed in "Super Doterang" c...

to study the effects of priming on seed germination traits of sainfoin 'eski', a factorial in randomized complete block design with three replications was conducted at the laboratory of agricultural research center of sari in 2011. treatments consisted of polyethylene glycol (peg6000) at 5 and 10%, potassium nitrate (kno3) at 5 and 10% and potassium chloride (kcl) at 5 and 10% levels ...

Temperature is a key factor influencing plant growth and productivity; however, temperature fluctuations can cause detrimental effects on crop growth. This study aimed to assess the effect of seed priming Camelina sativa L. under heat stress. Experimental treatments were comprised of; including, no-priming, hydropriming (distilled water priming), osmopriming (thiourea applications at 500 ppm), ...

Studies on French adults using a written lexical decision task with masked priming, in which targets were more primed by consonant- (jalu-JOLI) than vowel-related (vobi-JOLI) primes, support the proposal that consonants have weight vowels processing. This study examines phonological and/or nature of this consonant bias (C-bias), sandwich priming brief presentation target (pre-prime) precedes pr...

the purpose of this study was to examine the evaluating the potential of seed priming techniques in improving germination and early seedling growth of aeluropus macrostachys under salinity stress condition. this study was performed at the islamic azad university in baft city which is located in southeast of kerman province (2250 meters above the sea level, 92º 17 n latitude and 56º 36 e longitu...

the effects of bio-priming with different isolates of biological agent of trichoderma spp. and pseudomonas fluorescens on morphological and physiological characteristics of a bean cultivar (yaas) as well as their effects on controlling of rhizoctonia solani were investigated in two separate experiments. in the first experiment, different isolates of trichoderma including trichoderma harzianum b...
