Changes in water content and dry weight were determined in control cells and those induced to cold harden in response to abscisic acid (ABA) treatment (7.5 x 10-5 molar). Bromegrass (Bromus inermis Leyss cv Manchar) cells grown in suspension culture at room temperature (230C) for 7 days acclimated to -28°C (LT50) when treated with ABA, or to -50C when untreated. ABA significantly reduced cell g...

this study investigated intra-specific variation in the growth parameters and dry mat-ter partitioning of sugar beet cultivars at different levels of salinity (0, 50, 150, 250 and 350 mm nacl + cacl2 in 5:1 molar ratio) using four cvs, one british (madison) and three iranian cvs (7233-p12, 7233-p21 and 7233-p29). the plants were grown in a controlled greenhouse environment for about 18 weeks. a...

in order to study of effects of deficit irrigation on morphological traits and growth indices variation of corn forage (sc. 704) in rasht region, an experiment based on randomized complete design with four treatments and three replication was conducted in 2007 growing season, at research farm of faculty of agriculture, university of guilan. experimental treatments consisted of: no-irrigation, 1...

the nutritive values of non- processed and processed grape pomace with neurospora sitophila were evaluated. the chemical compositions and physical characteristics of samples were evaluated by laboratory analysis. an in vitro digestibility experiment was done to determine digestibility coefficients of dry matter, organic matter and also digestible organic matter in dry matter (domd) to estimate ...

salinity is a major environmental problem in arid and semi-arid areas. chickpea (cicer arietinum l.), like other legumes is sensitive to salinity. therefore, selection of genotypes to grow on saline areas is important. eleven chickpea genotypes (as sub plots) were grown in the greenhouse conditions on a medium containing different nacl concentrations (8 and 12 dsm-1) and control (hoagland solut...

wheat, cv. alvand, under late sowing condition and comparison with conventional sowing date was investigated in a field experiment in 2009-2010. the factors were seven levels of priming by sa, including control or untreated seeds, 400, 800, 1200, 1600, 2000 and 2400 µm sa and two sowing dates including conventional sowing date (23 october) and late sowing (22 november). results showed that prim...
