tuberose (polianthes tuberosa l.) is one of the most important bulbous ornamental crops of tropical and subtropical areas. the objective of the present study was to determine the interaction effects of salinity and irrigation intervals on growth and flowering of two important commercial cultivars (‘mahallati’ and ‘dezfuli’) of tuberose (polianthes tuberosa l.). irrigation treatments consisted o...

objective: germination is one of the most important stages of plants growth that affected by environmental stresses, especially drought and salinity. methods: in order to study of artichoke germination under different levels of salinity and drought, two separate experiments were performed. the four levels of salinity by nacl (0, 50, 100, 150 mm) with three replications and five levels of drough...

drought and salinity are the most important environmental stresses that are causing adverse effects on natural ecosystems. there are species among iranian natural germplasm that are resistant to environmental harsh conditions. restoring of degraded ecosystems, promoting of biodiversity and increasing of species richness will provide by identifying of these species. almond species with broad eco...

Irrigation, salinity and nitrogen (N) are the three major limiting environmental factors inmaize yield potentials especially in arid and semi-arid regions. An integrated water and N MaizeSimulation Model (MSM) was modified for salinity conditions using 2009-2010 fieldexperiments data in southwest of Iran. Irrigation levels were: I1=1.0ETc+0.25ETc as normalleaching amount, I2=0.75I1 and I3=0.5I1...

salinity is among important soil stresses adversely affecting the process of nitrogen (n) fixation in leguminous plants in different parts of the world. it has been indicated that salinity can inhibit the early stages of nodulation process between bacterium and the host plant including the exchange of signal molecules (nod gene inducers). there has not been any research regarding the effects of...

The intracellular accumulation of small organic solutes was described in the marine bacterium Rhodopirellula baltica, which belongs to the globally distributed phylum Planctomycetes whose members exhibit an intriguing lifestyle and cell morphology. Sucrose, α-glutamate, trehalose and mannosylglucosylglycerate (MGG) are the main solutes involved in the osmoadaptation of R. baltica. The ratio and...

a major problem of arid and semi-arid regions is environmental stresses like salinity and drought. to study the effect of artichoke germination under different levels of salinity and drought, two separate experiments were performed. the experimental treatments included different salinity levels of nacl (0, 50, 100, 150 mm) and five drought levels by peg (0, 10%, 15%, 20% and 25%) with three rep...

Degraded lands are defined by soils that have lost primary productivity due to abiotic or biotic stresses. Among the abiotic stresses, drought, salinity, and heavy metals are the main threats in tropical areas. These stresses affect plant growth and reduce their productivity. Nitrogen-fixing plants such as actinorhizal species that are able to grow in poor and disturbed soils are widely planted...
