low seed germination and seedling emergence is one of the main problems in saline areas. seed priming technique has been known as a challenge to improve germination and seedling emergence under different environmental stress. the objective of this research was to evaluate the effect of seed priming with gibberellin, nacl and water on seed germination and seed reserve utilization and germination...

emergence of crops is affected by environmental factors such as soil water, salinity and sowing and seed quality. the present study was conducted to evaluate the effect of seed aging (seed quality) on emergence of wheat under optimum (control) and stressful conditions including salinity (2 levels), drought (2 levels) and deep sowing depth (physical stress). seeds (cv. ‘zagros’) were kept at a h...

in order to investigate the effect of different weed-free and weed-infested periods on the growth indices of black seed, a field experiment was conducted at the agricultural research station of ferdowsi university of mashhad, during 2009-2010 growing season. the experiment was laid out in randomized complete block design with 12 treatments and 3 replications. twelve experimental treatments cons...

objective : this study investigated the effect of body mass index (bmi) on the success rate of ivf for couples with different causes of infertility. materials and methods : in a cross sectional descriptive- analytic study conducted simultaneously in mehr ivf center and vali-e-asr reproductive health research center, the success rate of ivf was examined in 396 consecutive women undergoing ivf cy...

to study the effect of different weed control methods in tomato, an experiment was conducted as completely randomized block design with three replications at the research farm of university of tehran (karaj) in 2008. the treatments consisted of post emergence (at recommended rate) or pre emergence (reduced rate in combination with mulch) application of metribuzin, rimsulfuron and sulfosulfuron,...

determination of cardinal temperatures during seed germination and emergence as well as the thermal time requirement for each stage is essential in crop management and modeling of plant growth and development. two experiments were conducted to predict cardinal temperatures and thermal time requirement for germination and emergence of chickpea genotypes. in the first experiment, seed germination...
