the effect of tricyclazole application on waterlogging damage alleviation in canola seedlings was evaluated in a pot experiment in complete randomized design layout with three replications. treatments included: control (no waterlogging), waterlogging, tricyclazole plus waterlogging and tricyclazole. tricyclazole (75%) applied at three-leaf stage on canola seedlings. seedlings were exposed to wa...

this research which aims to survey the relation between tobacco leaf yield and its components is done by using 118 varieties of tobacco in a research farm of guilan tobacco research institute. regarding to five random selections of plants, twenty three traits of each variety were evaluated. correlation between dry matter of leaf yield with plant height, stem diameter, leaf length, leaf width, l...

ABSTRACT- Field experiments were conducted to determine the relationship between plant leaf area as the dependent variable with leaves number, leaf dry weight, and total vegetative components dry weight and plant height as the independent variables. Treatments were two tillage systems (conventional and no-tillage) as main plots, and seven sowing dates (11 May, 18 May, 25 May, 1...

introduction major cultivated cotton regions of iran are located in dry and semiarid climates, therefore water deficiency or drought stress is inseparable part of cotton production systems in these regions. so identification and introduction of drought tolerant cotton genotypes is crucial. showed that water stress decreased plant growth rate, leaf area and finally photosynthesis in cotton. in a...

The effect of cement dust on the growth parameters of brinjal (Solanum melongena) was studied. The cement dust (2 g/plant) exhibited both inhibitory and promotory effects on different growth parameters of the S. melongena. The decrease in the number of leaves (37.19 and 62.28%), leaf area (57.93 and 57.26%), root length (48.21 and 56.75%), shoot length (27.27 and 38.98%), plant circumference (3...

Studies were conducted to characterize the effect of advanced potato (Solanum tuberosum L.) seed-tuber age on plant growth potential and whole-plant morphology. Plant growth from single-eye seedcores from 5- to 18-month old ;Russet Burbank' seedtubers was compared. Loss in apical dominance was apparent with advanced age. On a per-core basis, the amount of plant dry weight was equal for the two ...

Active gibberellin (GA(1)) is an important mediator of thermoperiodic growth in pea. Plants grown under lower day than night temperature (negative DIF) elongate less and have reduced levels of GA(1) compared with plants grown at higher day than night temperature (positive DIF). By comparing the wild type (WT) and the elongated DELLA mutant la cry(s), this study has examined the effect of impair...

To assess the variability of net photosynthetic CO(2) exchange per unit leaf area and to construct budgets for stands of field-grown tobacco (Nicotiana tabacum, Connecticut Broadleaf), a number of short-time measurements were made on all available leaf positions on two varieties using a hand-held transparent chamber for conducting gas exchange measurements on leaves. Measurements of net CO(2) e...
