In this paper twelve barley (Hordeum vulgare L.) genotypes were screened for salt tolerance during seed germination in the Crop Production Department, Faculty of Agriculture, Jordan University of Science and Technology, Irbid, Jordan. To evaluate salt tolerance during germination, 30 seeds of each genotype were placed on towel paper in 9 cm Petri dishes containing 20 mL distilled water or 1:1 M...

A factorial pot experiment was conducted based on randomized complete blocks design in green house condition to investigate the effect of short-term salt stress on leaf photosynthesis and ion relations of two sugar beet cultivars (Madison and 7233-P29). Plants were exposed to 0, 50, 150, 250, and 350 mM salinity (NaCl and CaCl2 in 5:1 molar ratio) for 48 hours. Measurements were done on younges...

Mango (Mangifera indica L.) is a salt sensitive crop and its cultivation in affected area declining day by day. There need to find out the rootstocks sustain under saline conditions which can be used for commercial of superior cultivars through grafting. To achieve this, present study was carried understand tolerance nature fifteen polyembryonic mango rootstock seedlings (EC-95862, Bappakkai, V...

Abstract Settling velocity or depositional is considered a key parameter to account for in the drilling technology of oil and gas wells as well hydrocarbon processing since an accurate estimation this allows transport cuttings efficiently, avoids non-productive time, helps avoid costly problems. Understanding settling fluid with high salinity will help better separation natural streams faciliti...

use of saline water for irrigation has shown considerable promise. however, its effect on the solubility and bioavailability of native soil nutrients is not well understood. this study was conducted to evaluate the effects of salinity on the behavior of zinc(zn) in calcareous soils. the soil samples with different physiochemical properties were collected from four locations in khorasan province...

Soil salinity affects plant growth in a variety of ways, reducing water uptake, causing toxic accumulation of sodium and chloride, and reducing nutrient availability. Salinity also induces water deficit even in well-watered soils by decreasing the osmotic potential of soil solutes, thus making it difficult for roots to extract water from their surrounding media (Jaleel et al., 2007a). Excessive...
