Methyl jasmonate and Epi-brassinolide as plant growth regulators have significant biological effects on plant growth, including increased tolerance to salt stress in plants. In this study, the effects of salinity stress and its interaction with methyl jasmonate and Epi-brassinolide on chlorophyll concentration, rate of photosynthesis, transpiration, stomatal conductance and resistance and chlor...

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...

The natterjack toad (Bufo calamita) shows variation in embryonic and larval salinity tolerance across populations in southern Spain. However, its aquatic/terrestrial biphasic life cycle, together with remarkable differences in salinity tolerance between Spanish and UK freshwater populations suggest an alternative hypothesis to local adaptation. Drought resistance during the terrestrial phase an...

Increasing salinity led to substantially higher ratios of mesophyll surface area to leaf area (A(mes)/A) for Phaseolus vulgaris and Gossypium hirsutum and a smaller increase for Atriplex patula, a salt-tolerant species. The increase in internal surface for CO(2) absorption did not lead to higher CO(2) uptake rates, since the CO(2) resistance expressed on the basis of mesophyll cell wall area (r...

To determine the relative salt tolerance and/or resistance in seedlings of pistachio genotypes, four pot experimentswere conducted. In experiments 1 and 2, the effects of salinity on growth indices were studid. Experiments were donein the form of split plot based on RCBD. In each experiment, mainplots consisted of different electrical conductivitiesof irrigation water (ECiws). In experiment 1, ...
