among the environmental stresses, salinity is a major limiting factor in world legumes production is considered. in this study, sodium chloride and salicylic acid interaction on growth parameters were investigated in greenhouse with factorial arrangement in randomized complete block design with three replications. the plant consisted of three cultivars of lentil (kimiya, kermanshah and gachsara...

salinity is the major limiting factor for plant growth and crop productivity. salt stress is effective on physiological characteristics, morphology, anatomy, chemical composition and water content of plant tissue. pulses are the second of food source after the cereals for human. among the pulses, the bean has special importance. in order to investigate the effect of silicon on the physiological...

Definitions and forms of salinity All natural waters contain soluble salts. The concentration of the salts determines whether the water is of high quality (drinkable or usable for irrigation without need for special precautions) or of low quality (brackish or saline). Water in the soil also contains soluble salts (sometimes called free or nonattached salts). The amount of salts in the root zone...

Salinization of groundwater in semiarid regions, as a limiting factor of use, has a strategic importance. In this study, the sources of salinity, chemistry and Quality of groundwater in Robat – Khorramabad plain have been identified using geochemical methods. Using data analysis, the concentration of cations and anions are recognized as Ca2+>Na+ >Mg2+>K+ and HCO3-> Cl-> SO42+> NO3-> F-. High co...

narcissus is one of the very popular flowers among iranians. this flower has a short life. to investigate the increasing of vase life of cut narcissus, sour orange fruit extract in concentrations of 2.5, 4, 5.5 and 7 ml l-1 and sucrose in concentrations of 3, 4, 5 and 6% were used. in addition, distilled water was used as a control treatment. in this experiment, characters of vase life and perc...

Poly(ether ether ketone) with cardo group-based (PEEK-WC) membranes, in hollow fber (HF) confguration, were prepared via the dry-wet spinning technique through the phase inversion process and used to clarify kiwifruit juice. The depectinised juice was processed according to a batch concentration confguration in selected operating conditions (transmembrane pressure, 1.6 ...

BACKGROUND AND AIMS Increasing soil salinity poses a major plant stress in agro-ecosystems worldwide. Surprisingly little is known about the quantitative effect of elevated salinity on secondary metabolism in many agricultural crops. Such salt-mediated changes in defence-associated compounds may significantly alter the quality of food and forage plants as well as their resistance against pests....
