since there is limited information on the simultaneous effect of drought stress and salicylic acid on yield and mucilagecontent of the medicinal herb, plantago ovata forssk is available, a pot experiment was conducted in factorial form basedon a randomized complete block design with three replications in jiroft, kerman province, south of iran. as the firstfactor, drought stress included four le...

the dissipated energy from periodic deformation is regarded as the main reason for heat generation and temperature rise inside the tire domain. however, the mechanical behavior of rubber parts is highly temperature dependent. in most performed investigations, the influence of thermal effects on stress/ deformation fields of pneumatic tires is ignored and just temperature distribution is conside...

iran is among the world's arid and semi-arid countries. drought stress is one of the most important environmental stresses affecting fruit trees and considerably can cause yield reduction. persian walnut (juglans regia l.) with significant area harvest is one the most important nuts in iran which require sufficient amounts of water for optimal growth and efficiency. in order to study the e...

in order to evaluate effects of water stress and foliar application humic acid on quantities and qualitative in borage, a field experiment was conducted as a split plots design with three replication in 2012 at agricultural research station, university of zabol. water stress treatments included control or 90 percent of field capacity (w1), 70 percent field capacity (w2) and 50 percent field cap...

drought stress is one of the most important factors limiting the survival and growth of plants in the different habitats of iran. detailed knowledge about the ecophysiological responses of native plants to drought stress could contribute to the success of breeding and re-vegetation programs. six wild populations of anthemis tinctoria, were assigned to four drought treatments, i.e. well-watered ...

understanding the physiological processes associated with drought stress lead to an understanding of the basic mechanisms of resistance, maintaining yield potential and contribute to the identification of drought tolerant cultivars. for this purpose, the effects of drought stress in cowpea genotypes was evaluated using five different genotypes with different yield potential in a pot experiment ...

To examine the genetic variation for drought stress in chamomile, eight accessions belonging to four species were evaluated under both field and greenhouse conditions using normal and late season drought stress. In the field experiment drought stress were initiated with irrigation cease at the commencement of flowering time. In greenhouse experiment, irrigation carried out at flower initiation ...

Magnetic shape memory properties of Ni-Mn-Ga single crystals were characterized by measurement of stress-induced martensite reorientation under constant magnetic fields. Also magnetic field-induced strain as a function of the applied magnetic field under different constant compressive stress levels has been investigated. All the experiments were performed at room temperature in which the sample...
