A pot experiment was conducted based on a factorial study and complete random block design with three replicates to investigate the phytoremediation potential of Sorghum biocilor L. in soils polluted with nickel and manganese during 2017-2018. The first factor was nickel nitrate (0, 60, and 120 mg kg-1 soil) and the second factor comprised of manganese sulphate (0, 50, and 100 µM). The characte...

greenhouse studies showed in the transplant of tomato that two weeks before infection with nematodes with two species of mycorrhizal g. mosseae and g. intraradices had been inoculated, were significantly offseted the reduction of growth that had been done by nematodes. it should be noted that the percentage of root colonization with two species 66.3% and 62.2% respectively and based on this stu...

In order to investigate the effects of salt stress on biochemical and physiological responses of two cultivars of alfalfa (Medicago sativa L.) namely, Diabolourde and Yazdi, chlorophyll content, growth parameters, and proline contents of roots and shoots, reducing sugars contents of roots and shoots, and membrane injuries of the plant samples were subjected to 0, 100, 150, and 200 mM NaCl treat...

To characterize some important eco-physiological aspects of  Alhagi pseudalhagi growth, the present investigation was conducted at the farm of Khorasan Agricultural Research Center during 2004-2005. Various botanical characteristics including root structure and existence of starch in root were studied. Number of seeds per pod, pod length and test weight were recorded. A number of field and pot ...

Greenhouse experiments in a completely randomized design were carried out to investigate the effects of nitroxin fertilizer (0, 1 and 2 li/ha) on morphological and physiological traits of Amaranthus retroflexus in 2013. The traits in the study included plant height, fresh and dry weight of shoots, roots, stem and leaf, Chlorophyll a, chlorophyll b, total chlorophyll, carotenoids, anthocyanin, a...

The influence of salinity on the different polyamine fractions (free, conjugated, and bound) was compared in a natrophilic halophyte (Beta vulgaris L. cv. IC) and a salt sensitive glycophyte (Nicotiana rustica L. cv. Basmas). Low-level salinity (25 mM NaCl) and high salinity (150 and 50 mM NaCl for sugar beet and tobacco, respectively) were supplied in hydroponics. Under low salinity shoot dry ...

The aims of this study were to investigate genotypic variations in root traits at phytomer level of wheat varieties and for recommending a few root traits as selection parameters in future breeding programs. Two separate experiments were conducted to measure their root traits for hydroponically grown wheat plants. In Experiment 1, main axis length, root hair density and diameter differed from p...
