abstract in order to study the effect of different water potential on anethum graveolens two experiments were conducted for germination and vegetative stages. this study was carried out as a factorial experiment based on completely randomized design with three replications. in the first experiment, response of dill seeds germination to levels of drought stress including to drought potentials ze...

in order to study the effect of foliar zinc spraying on photosynthetic pigments and yield of chickpea under water stress conditions, a factorial experiment carried out based on randomized completely block design (rcbd) with three replications in university of mohaghegh ardabili agricultural research station in 2012. the treatments consisted of three levels of irrigation (irrigated at planting, ...

salinity stress is one of the most important abiotic stresses which threaten plants. in order to study the effect of salinity stress on yield and yield components of sunflower and also genetic analysis of these traits in relation with salt tolerance, a factorial experiment based on a completely randomized design with three replications was conducted. pots were arranged outside the greenhouse in...

objective: drought stress is most important factor which reduce root and shoot growth in crops. this study was performed in order to evaluate the effects of drought stress and zn fertilizer on root traits of four cultivars of chickpea. methods: experiment was laid out in a split plot-factorial using randomized complete block design with three replications. drought stress treatment stand in main...

In the current paper results of a well instrumented experimental procedure for studying the arching effect in loose and dense sand are presented. The apparatus comprises concentric circular trapdoors with different diameters that can yield downward while stresses and deformations are recorded simultaneously. As the trapdoor starts to yield, the whole soil mass deforms elastically. However, afte...
