the effect of salinity was assessed on the activity of some major antioxidant enzymes i.e., superoxide dismutase (sod), peroxidase (pod), catalase (cat), in the seedlings’ roots or shoots of three winter canola (brassica napus l.) cultivars, colvert (tolerant), symbol (semi tolerant) and agat (susceptible). seedlings were treated with 0 (control), 50, 100 and 150 mm nacl for 24 h in hydropoic c...

Genetic diversity is vital for the survival of any population. If humans were all same, a single strain nasty flu virus, like COVID-19, could wipe us out! In plants, genetic plays similar role. The variation in type and number resistance gene(s) between individuals can cause difference surviving disease or not. Studies on will lead to identification novel disease-resistance genes. Canola (Brass...

Soil salinization, one of the most common causes soil degradation, negatively affects plant growth, reproduction, and yield in plants. Saline conditions elicit some physiological changes to cope with imposed osmotic oxidative stresses. Inoculation plants bacterial species that stimulate their i.e., growth-promoting bacteria (PGPB), may help counteract saline stress, thus improving plant’s fitne...

The objective of this study was to evaluate the effect aluminum and mitigating potential H2O2 on stress antioxidant responses in canola (Brassica napus var. oleifera (Moench) Delile) affecting emergence initial growth plants. Canola seeds, cultivar Hyola 61, were treated with different concentrations solution (0.0, 0.075, 0.15 M), later sown under 10, 20, 30 mmolc dm-3). After 20 days plant eme...

Canola oil is high in oleic acid which is commonly used for food and industrial purposes. To determine adaptability of spring canola (Brassica napus L.) to the High Plains for industrial oil production, 26 irrigated trials were conducted from 2005 to 2008. Trials were divided into five regions—1: 36–37◦N 108◦W; 2: 39–40◦N 101–103◦W; 3: 41–42◦N 102–103◦W; 4: 41–42◦N 104◦W; 5: 43–44◦N 106–108◦W. ...

To study drought stress on seedling dry weight, proline contents and evaluate of antioxidant enzymes activity in canola genotypes (Brassica napus l.), an experiment were evaluated at laboratory physiology, Shahed University. This experiment was carried out in factorial with CRD design with 4 replications in 2008. The first factor was including levels of dough stress, one without stress as check...

The objective of the present study was to describe the trend of germination characteristics for a variety of canola ‘Okapi’ at different pre-soaking durations. For this purpose, seeds were placed in 250 ml of distilled water for 0 to 12h with intervals of 2h at room temperature. Each sample of seed was placed in Petri-dishes and germinated at the temperature of 25°C. Fitting logistic function o...
