Current study was carried out to assessment the effects of zeolite on seed yield, physiological and biochemical traits of sorghum in response to different irrigation regime according split plot arrangement based on complete randomized block design with three replications in Varamin region (Central of Iran). The main plots consisted of different irrigation regime at four levels [Normal irrigatio...

Partial root-zone drying or partial root-zone irrigation is a newly proposed water saving technique which may improve water use efficiency and nutrient uptake by a crop without affecting its yield. A study was conducted to investigate the response of furrow-irrigated okra to partial root zone drying in relation to cropevapotranspiration (ETc), vegetative growth, yield, and nutrient use effi...

The comparative effects of different concentrations of saline soil and saline irrigation water were investigated on growth of canola (cv. Ganyou-5). Plants were subjected to control (non-saline), 0.2% (EC 2.5 dS.m-1), 0.4% (EC 4.5 dS.m-1) and 0.6% (EC 6.5 dS.m-1) of sea salt concentrations in soil as well as saline irrigation water. Vegetative growth parameters recorded were plant height, numbe...

this study was conducted to determine the chemical composition and degradability characteristics of a pasture plant salsola tomentosa by nylon bags method .the sampling was performed from the northern region of plain's gonabad city in three growth stages (vegetative, flowering and seeding). the samples dried in air, were milled and their chemical composition were determined. to determine the de...

The most important effect of water stress on plants is that it reduces leaf area and leads to changes in morphology. Decreased results crop yield through the reduction photosynthesis. This study investigates effects decrease seed cotton yield, evapotranspiration (ET), use efficiency (WUE), geometry under different growth periods. plant was divided into three periods (vegetative period (VP), flo...

in order to study the effects of integrative applications of chemical fertilizers and biofertilizers on grain yield and oil of borago officinalis under water deficit stress, a field experiment was conducted at kermanshah, iran, in 2011. experiment was arranged as split plot under a randomized complete block design with 3 replications. water deficit stress with four levels was applied as the mai...

Drought induced stress is one of the most significant environmental challenges. This study was designed to evaluate the effects of drought stress on crop yield and antioxidant systems during the vegetative period of wheat. The study was carried out in a greenhouse using factorial experiment based on complete randomized block design (RCBD) in three replications in Razi University in Iran from 20...

water stress decrease water content and water potential between soil and root. therefore, water potential  of plant declines and plant faces with water stress. water stress in different stages of growth can be useful in different aspects. water stress can be practiced from two point of view, increasing water use efficiency (wue) and improving cultural practices. no irrigation in insensitive sta...
