background and objectives: drought stress is one of the most important environmental factors reducing growth and yield of crops, especially in arid and semiarid regions of the world. during drought stress, nutrient uptake diminishes due to rising of solute concentrations and so increasing of osmotic potential in the root zone. with increasing soil ph, micronutrient uptake decreases more than ot...

in order to study of the radiation interception and red to far red light ratio variations in sunflower hybrids under drought stress, nine sunflower hybrids in three separate experiments were compared as randomized complete block designs with three replications at the research station of seed and plant improvement institute in karaj in 2006. first experiment (control) was irrigated based on 60 m...

To evaluate the effect of water, tape drip and furrow irrigation methods on the performance components and features of Agria cultivar potato, an experiment was carried out in the agriculture faculty of Kermanshah. Repeated three times, this study was carried out in the form of full random blocks with the main factor of different amounts of irrigation water in three levels (50, 75, and100 percen...

Contrary to expectations, measurements of pan evaporation show decreases in many parts of the Northern Hemisphere over the last 50 years. When combined with rainfall measurements, these data show that much of the Northern Hemisphere’s terrestrial surface has become less arid over the last 50 years. However, whether the decrease in pan evaporation is a phenomenon limited to the Northern Hemisphe...

at the research farm of vali-e-asr university of rafsanjan in 2013. the experiment was arranged in a randomized complete block design with four replications and four irrigation intervals. irrigation was done after 40 (control), 60, 80 and 100 mm evaporation from pan class a, from seedling establishment till physiological maturity. results showed that irrigation level did not significantly chang...
