as regards citrus growing in sub-tropical and tropical regions that often expose drought, in order to investigation of some citrus seedlings response to drought this research was done in factorial experiment based on randomized completely design with three replication under glasshouse conditions. first factor were five citrus rootstocks and second factor included two treatment of irrigation (op...

Constant reduction of stratospheric ozone layer and the increase of ultraviolet radiation intensity were observed in last twenty years of the 20th century. Four tree species; Acacia amplicepsis, Acacia gerradii, Casuarina glauca and Eucalyptus intertexta grown in Experimental station of Food and Agriculture Sciences Collage, King Saud University were used to study the impact of UV-C on potentia...

selection of genotypes based on high value of heritability and forecasted genetic conditions would be an effective method for improvement of wheat cultivars. the present investigation was carried out to estimate the genetic variability of agro-physiological characters using biometrical genetic techniques in 20 bread wheat genotypes under irrigated condition. for this purpose an experiment was c...

Stimulated emission and lasing have been demonstrated for chlorophyll a, chlorophyll b, and bacteriochlorophyll a as well as for the Mg-free chlorophyll derivatives pheophytin a and methyl pheophorbide a. Population inversion was obtained by optically pumping with an N(2) laser. For the three chlorophylls, lasing was observed for only the (0,0) vibronic region of the S(1) --> S(0) fluorescence ...

studying the physiological responses of linseed genotypes to water deficit stress may be helpful in recognizing the linseed resistance mechanisms to the latter stress factors. therefore, a split plot rcbd field experiment was conducted with three replications to explain interrelations of leaf chlorophyll, proline and soluble carbohydrates content and grain yield of six linseed genotypes under t...

lichens are composite organisms formed by a fungus and a green alga and / or a blue-green bacterium. they are recognized as being very sensitive to atmospheric pollution and respond to factors that influence human and environmental healths. since 1860, lichen has been identified as a biological indicator to detect air pollution in great britain and europe. lichens have the high sensitivityto ni...

A split-plot experimental study was conducted to evaluate the effect of different shade stresses on photosynthesis and chlorophyll fluorescence of maize leaves.The experiment was designed on the south farm of Special Corn Institute, Shenyang Agricultural University, China.Data was collected from the day maize tasseled (Jul. 21) to the beginning of grouting (Aug.12 ) under 18%, 28%, 38%, 60%, an...
