Soil alkalinity is a severe threat to crop production globally as it markedly retards plant growth. Different techniques are used mitigate alkaline stress, but priming considered the most appropriate. The current study was carried out in complete randomized design (CRD) evaluate effect of different on maize grown under levels stress. experiment comprised treatments stress (AS) including, contro...

in drought stress condition, it is important to estimate the n and k requirement of sugar beet. a drought-tolerant sugar beet genotype, bp karaj, was evaluated in split plot factorial design based on a randomized complete block design with four replications at motahari research station, karaj, iran for three years. main plots were allocated to irrigation treatments including normal irrigation (...

to study the effects of priming on seed germination traits of sainfoin 'eski', a factorial in randomized complete block design with three replications was conducted at the laboratory of agricultural research center of sari in 2011. treatments consisted of polyethylene glycol (peg6000) at 5 and 10%, potassium nitrate (kno3) at 5 and 10% and potassium chloride (kcl) at 5 and 10% levels ...

This study was conducted to examine the effects of Salicylic acid (SA) and Potassium nitrate (KNO3) on plant height flowering time groundnut (Arachis hypogaea L.) under induced stresses salinity, drought combined salinity drought. Three watering regimes namely; normal, moderate severe were used. For stress, 50 mM NaCl, 100 150 NaCl combination water ?m KNO3 SA separately applied plants water, s...

in order to evaluate the effect of different levels of drought stress on some physiological parameters in grapevine, a potted experiment with iranian grapevine cultivars ‘sahani’, ‘bidane-sefid’ and ‘farkhii’ was conducted in summer of 2008. the experiment was performed while employing four drought stress (water potential of soil, ?s= -0.2, -0.6, -1, -1.5 mpa) treatments each in three replicati...

abstract three pear genotypes (nazkeh, lasoreh and qevilah), grown in 2l containers, were studied under four irrigation regimes in order to evaluate the leaf relative water content (rwc), photosynthesis, leaf gas exchanges and plant dry weight induced by water stress. control treatment everyday was irrigation. irrigation was practiced when soil water potential reached at -0.4, -0.8, and -1.2 mp...

some of the morpho-physiological characteristics related to the leaf growth and development of phaseolus vulgaris l. genotypes have been studied in the field conditions at the seed and plant improvement institute (spii). the study was performed as split plot experiment in a randomized complete block design with four replications in well-watered and water deficit conditions with eight genotypes ...
