The effect of exogenous application; seed priming or foliar spraying of salicylic acid (SA) on Yecora Rojo and Paragon wheat cv. under NaCl-salinity. Gas exchange parameters, growth parameters, yield and yield components were reduced in both cultivars under salinity stress with foliar spray and soaking seeds. Exogenous application of SA through foliar spraying or seed soaking showed a slight in...

several species of phytophthora cause crown and root rot diseases of herbaceous and woody plants. crown and root rot of pistachio trees cause significant damages in infected orchards. the effect of foliar application with elite (fosetyl-al) in 2 and 2.5 g/l was evaluated in greenhouse experiments. the frequency of mortality, fresh and dry weight of roots and shoots, height, intensity of crown r...

This research was carried out to determine effect of sorghum cultivars and copper foliar spray on physiological traits under saline water situation via split plot experiment based on randomized complete blocks design with four replications during 2015 and 2016 year. The main plot consisted sorghum cultivars at three level (Kimia, KGS10, KGS4) and Copper foliar spray (C1: 0 or control...

This study investigated the effects of foliar application of normal and nanoparticles of zinc oxide (ZnO) on the growth, proline content, and some antioxidant enzyme activities of sunflower cultivars at different salinity levels. Treatments included five cultivars (Helianthus annuus L. cvs. Alstar, Olsion, Yourflor, Hysun36, and Hysun33), two salinity levels (0 and 100 mM NaCl), and three folia...

abstract an investigation was undertaken to ascertain the influence of hydro-alcoholic solutions on plant growth as well as quality attributes of strawberry fruits. the mother plants of strawberry (fragaria ananasa cv. gaviota) were subjected to various aqueous solutions of ethanol (15, 30%), methanol (15, 30%) and the mixture of ethanol + methanol (15 or 30%) plus the control (water only) as f...

light is one of the important environmental factors seriously affecting plant growth. given the availability of roots in aeroponic system, the influence of various light rays emitted towards the root zone of anthurium was studied. foliar spray of calcium nitrate in concentration of 10 mm was tried because of the high importance of calcium element in enhancement of vase life and strength of cut ...

abstract to investigate the effects of paclobutrazol (pbz) on vegetative and reproductive growth of strawberry cv. selva a factorial experiment in a completely randomized design with three replications was carried out in greenhouse of agriculture college, isfahan university of technology. pbz was applied in two methods, drench and foliar spray, at 0, 0.5, 1, 1.5 and 2 mg active ingredient per p...

Bait stations represent an environmentally friendly attract-and-kill approach to fruit fly population suppression. Recently a novel, visually attractive, rain-fast bait station was developed in Hawaii for potential use against multiple species of pestiferous fruit flies. Here, we compared the efficacy of GF-120 NF Naturalyte Fruit Fly Bait applied either as foliar sprays or onto bait stations i...

Calcium deficiency causes Endocarp Lesion disorder in pistachio nut. To investigate the effects of various calcium treatments on Endocarp Lesion disorder and some nut qualitative characteristics in Pistachio cv. Akbari, an experiment was done in completely randomized design with four treatments (1- control treatment, 2- calcium chelate foliar spray, 3- calcium nitrate and 4– calcium sulfate (gy...
