Wild barley contains a wide genetic diversity and therefore is adaptable to all kinds of harsh environments. The aim of this research was to determine the extent of drought stress adaptation within Hordeum spontaneum L. genotypes from different climates of Iran. From the primary population of 193 genotypes, a core set consisting of 18 genotypes, were selected based on the highest squared Euclid...

in the current study, a set of 96 recombinant inbred lines (ril) at f8, derived from a cross between two varieties, anbarbu (sensitive to drought stress) and sepidroud (tolerant to drought stress) were used. the experiment was performed at gonbad kavous located in the golestan province of iran in 2010–2011 using two augmented designs at normal and stress conditions, separately. the ril populati...

to study the effects of drought stress and foliar application with salicylic acid on yield andit’s components and percentage of essential oil of nigella sativa l., a field experiment was conducted as split plot based on randomized complete block design with three replications at research farm of shahid bahonar university of kerman during growing season of 2013- 2014. the main factor was drought...

laboratory and field experiments were conducted to investigate the relationships between germination characteristics and field emergence in produced seeds of soybean cultivars as affected by under three different soil moisture conditions. the treatments are included water stress [irrigation plants after 50 (normal irrigation), 100 (mild stress), 150 (severe stress) mm evaporation from class a p...

background and objectives: alkalinity stress caused by the alkaline salts such as na2co3 or nahco3 in the soil. alkaline stress affected germination, growth and crop productivity. moreover, the alkalinity stress can directly damage plant growth, alter the availability of nutrients, and disrupt the balance of ions and mineral nutrition. the application of different seed pretreatment methods is o...

The possible effects of seed priming on mitigating the effects of drought stress on germination and early seedling growth of two rangeland plants were evaluated in a laboratory research during 2015-16 growing season. The research was conducted as a 2×3×3 factorial experiment based on completely randomized design with three replications. The first factor was plant type (Festuca ovina and Bromus ...
