Regarding the insufficient water resources, developing of cultivars with high tolerance to water deficit can be very effective to optimize water consumption. To identify maize hybrids with higher tolerance to water deficit, 52 single cross hybrids were field evaluated according to a randomized complete block design with three replications in each irrigation regime. The hybrids were produced thr...

In order to investigate the effect of water deficit tension on different growth stages on yield, yield components and produced grain quality of sorghum seeds cultivars,  an experiments was performed as split plots based on randomized complete blocks design with four replications in Isfahan Ghiam Cultivation and Cattle Farm Company in 2017. The main factor including irrigation cut at four levels...

     Nowadays, the root characteristics as one of secondary traits along with grain yield are used to response evaluation of rice genotypes under deficit irrigation. Thus, to evaluate the root traits of 40 irrigated rice genotypes to water limited condition a pot experiment was performed in 2014 at Rice Research Institute (Rasht), Iran. Irrigation treatment was applied in two levels include con...

Biofertilizers included solid, liquid or semi-solid materials that contain one or several microorganism species developing plants root system leads to better uptake of water and nutrients resulting in the further growth of the plant. To evaluate the accumulation of nutrients in leaf and biomass production of pot marigold (Calendula officinalis L.), a factorial experiment was conducted based on ...

Environmental stresses such as deficit irrigation and ultraviolet radiation can influence plant growth and development. Among the environmental variables, ultraviolet radiation is an important factor in plant response to other stresses, such as deficit irrigation. The purpose of this study was to investigate the effects of ultraviolet B radiation (UV-B), irrigation stress and combined effects o...

Evaluation of pollutant transportation in soil is important from different environmental aspects such as soil and groundwater contamination. The purpose of this study is to measure 2, 4-D concentrations in a silty loam soil under two different treatments (normal and deficit irrigation) in a corn field and simulate the results using the PRZM-3 and LEACHP models. Total concentrations of 2, 4-D in...
