the aim of this study was to investigate the effect of tillage methods to obtain suitable seedbed for monogerm seed. therefore, a split plot experiment based on a randomized complete block design (rcbd) with three replicatians was conducted at darab station of fars province. the main plot was seedbed prepration at two levels including fall and spring season. subplot included 1) moldboard plow a...

current research on effect of increasing concentrations (0 (control), 100, 200, 300, 400 and 500 mm) of different salts including nacl and na2so4 on germination and initial growth phase of halostachys caspica were studied. the experimental design was completely randomized design with three replications. characters of percentage, speed and index of germination, seed healthy index, radicle, plumu...

Current research on effect of increasing concentrations (0 (control), 100, 200, 300, 400 and 500 mM) of different salts including NaCl and Na2SO4 on germination and initial growth phase of Halostachys caspica were studied. The experimental design was completely randomized design with three replications. Characters of percentage, speed and index of germination, seed healthy index, radicle, plumu...

low seed germination and seedling emergence is one of the main problems in saline areas. seed priming technique has been known as a challenge to improve germination and seedling emergence under different environmental stress. the objective of this research was to evaluate the effect of seed priming with gibberellin, nacl and water on seed germination and seed reserve utilization and germination...

to study the effects of sowing dates on seed germination and on seed vigor of 12 spring rapeseed cultivars, an experiment was performed in years 2005-2006. during the first year, 12 cultivars of spring rapeseed were planted in the research field of seed and plant improvement institute, karaj, iran. during the second year, standard germination test was conducted to study the performance of the s...

The objective of present study was to evaluate the response of the mung bean seeds of ‘Sonali B1’ variety primed with chitosan in four different concentrations (0, 0.1%, 0.2% and 0.5%) under salinity stress of five different concentrations (i.e., 0, 4, 6, 8 and 12 dS*mm) and halotolerance pattern by applying Celite as matrix at three different moisture levels (5%, 10% and 20%). Improved germina...

the effect of electromagnetic field was examined on zinnia (zinnia elegans) seeds to enhance seed germination and early growth. the seeds were exposed to four magnetic strengths of 15, 100, 400 and 800 mt in four durations of 30, 60, 120 and 240 min. the experiments were carried out in two forms of laboratory germination and soil emergence. results showed that magnetic field application enhance...
