introduction: salinity is the most significant abiotic factor limiting crop productivity and several physiological responses, including modification of ion balance, water status, mineral nutrition, stomatal behavior, photosynthetic efficiency and so on. the gf677 (prunuspersica×prunusamygdalus) is widelyusedas rootstock for peach and almond. it is mainly used as a rootstock because of its resis...

plant tissue culture techniques were used to study the effect of nacl on tropane alkaloids accumulation and proline content of both datura metel and datura stramonium. callus cultures were established for both datura species. however, ms medium supplemented with 1mg/l of both ba and naa was the best for callus production in d. metel, while ms supplemented with 3 mg/l kin and 1 mg/l 2, 4-d was t...

this research investigate the effects of different concentrations of salt: 0, 75, 100, 150 (mm nacl) and concentration of 0.05 mm gibberellic acid and 5µm salicylic acid on the content of proline and a, b chlorophylls of canola (hayola 401 and rgs). the results showed that with increasing in the amount of salinity in both chlorophylls decreased and the amount of decrease in chlorophyll b was mo...

Chlorella autotrophica (Clone 580) grows over the external salinity range of 1 to 400% artificial sea water (ASW), can photosynthesize over the range from 1 to 600% ASW, and survives the complete evaporation of seawater. The alga grown at high salinities shows an increase in cell volume and a small decrease in cell water content. Measurements of ion content were made by neutron activation analy...

stress management is considered as an important factor in nowadays landscape. therefore this research was conducted using a factorial experiment based on a randomized completely design with regulated deficit irrigation at four levels (100, 75, 50, and 25% of lawn irrigation requirement) and three replicates to evaluate some biochemical and physiological traits on four groundcover plants (lolium...

The effects of irrigation water salinity on growth, chlorophyll contents, proline and nutrients accumulation and K/Na ratio in three walnut cultivars was investigated. Three irrigation water salinity levels with electrical conductivities of 1,5, 3, and 5.0 dS/m and tap water as a control treatment were used in a randomized design with four replications. Irrigation practices were realized by con...

Salinity is a phenomenon challenging the plantation and growth of grape in arid and semiarid regions. During the present research, tolerance of two grape cultivars (Soltanin and Fakhri) was evaluated against various sodium chloride salinity levels (zero, 50, 100, 150, 200 and 250 mM), which was conducted based on factorial experiment in the form of Randomized Complete Design (RCD) with three re...
