in order to study the effect of water deficit effects on agronomic characteristics of sunflower ‎hybrids, three separate experiments were conducted as‏ ‏randomized complete block design with ‎three replications at the research field of seed and plant improvement institute - karaj. the first ‎experiment conducted at optimum conditions and plants were irrigated after 60 mm evaporation ‎from evapo...

introduction the average annual precipitation in iran is about 250 mm that is not regularly distributed spatially and temporally. more than 70 percent of total precipitation is not accessible due to evapotranspiration. total renewable water resources of the country are estimated to be around 130 billion cubic meters. in spite of limitation in water resources, they are not used properly. agricul...

in order to study the interrelations of photosynthetic rate and surfaces and leaf proline content with yield and yield components of safflower under different irrigation regimes, a field experiment in a split plot arrangement under a ranomized complete block design with four replication was performed at lavark reasrch farm, isfahan university of technology, isfahan, iran in 2007. two irrigation...

In order to evaluate the tuber fresh weight and some physiological attributes of Agria potato cultivar in response to water deficit stress and mycorrhiza inoculation, a field trial was conducted as a split plot scheme based on randomized complete block design with three replications at the research site of Islamic Azad University, Tabriz Branch in 2012. Four water levels including: irrigation a...

Spectral reflectance indices can be used to estimate the water status of plants in a rapid, non-destructive manner. Water spectral indices were measured on wheat under a range of water-deficit conditions in field-based yield trials to establish their relationship with water relations parameters as well as available volumetric soil water (AVSW) to indicate soil water extraction patterns. Three t...
