objective: in order to study the effect of drought stress, salicylic acid (sa) and  jasmonic acid (ja) foliar application on hill reaction and photosynthetic pigments. methods:experiment was done as factorial on the basis of completely randomized design in 4 replications. irrigation in 3 levels (fc,   fc and  fc), salicylic acid in 2 levels (0 and 0.5 mm) and jasmonic acid in 2 levels (0 and 50...

The photosynthetic apparatus is reorganized during acclimation to various light environments. During adaptation of plants grown under a low-light to high-light environment, the light-harvesting chlorophyll a/b-protein complexes decompose concomitantly with an increase in the core complex of photosystem II. To study the mechanisms for reorganization of photosystems, the assembly of chlorophyll w...

Cold is an environmental factor limiting the growth and yield of agricultural crops. To find cold-tolerant pistachio rootstocks, a factorial experiment was conducted at Pistachio Research Center (PRC), Rafsanjan, Iran during 2017-2018. The factors included six rootstocks (Badami Zarand, Ghazvini, Sarakhs, Integerrima × Badami Zarand, Integerrima × Ghazvini and Integerrima × Sarakhs) and four th...

in order to evaluate the effects of foliar application of methanol on some physiological characteristics of chickpea under drought stress, an experiment was conducted as a factorial based on completely randomized design with three replications in 2011 at the recearch center of plant for sciences in ferdowsi university of mashhad. the first factor was different levels of methanol including, 0 (c...

background & aim: the pigments inside the leaf chloroplasts receive sunlight energy and transport it to photosynthesis reaction center. the most important of these pigments is chlorophyll. in this study, the pigments existence in medicinal plant, sumac (rhus coriaria l.), was investigated at biotechnology laboratory, isfahan university of technology. experimental: experiments were performed...

The effects of UV-B radiation on the amount of chlorophyll a, b, carotenoids, flavonoids, anthocyanins, and polyphenols of three soybean cultivars was studied. After germination in the incubator, plants were put in pots of soil and during 3 weeks and irrigated with Hoagland solution every day. After 3 weeks, plants were exposed to UV-B for 20 min every day for a week. In each cultivar, UV-B red...
