in order to study the effects of pgpr application methods on proline and soluble sugars content of yarrow (achillea millefolium l.) under drought stress conditionsan experiment was performed at islamic azad university, yadegar-e-imam khomeini (rah) shahre-rey branch. this experiment was carried out in a split plot arrangement with randomized complete block design in three replications. experime...

drought is considered as one of the most important limiting factors for oil seed canola plant(brassica napus l.) growth and productivity in iran. on the basis of root and shoot dry weight asaffected by water stress exerted by peg 6000, out of 9 canola cultivars, a relatively tolerant (cv. aghaii)and a sensitive cultivar (cv. po4) were selected. their responses to low water potential with respec...

Salinity is a main and common stress which decreases the amount of agriculture products and natural plants in many areas of the world. In this study, the effect of salt stress on three varieties of Lotus corniculatus 'Karaj', 'Jolfa', and 'Ardabil' was investigated. Plants were cultured in hydroponic condition with four NaCl treatments (0, 50, 100, 150 mM). The amounts of proline, glycine betai...

The impact of three levels of sea salt (0.0, 8.0, and 16.0 mS/cm2) on six varieties of soybean (Crawford, G21, G22, G35, G82, and G83) was studied. Growth criteria, photosynthetic pigments, soluble sugars, soluble protein, free amino acids, free proline, and protein profile of soybean varieties were investigated under sea salt stress. Results of this study showed a considerable decrease in grow...

in order to study the effects of foliar application of zn and k on yield and some physiological traits of spring safflower (carthamus tinctorius l.), cv. esfahan 14, under drought stress, a pot experiment was conducted in research greenhouse of yasouj university. experiment was a factorial based on completely randomized design with three replications. factors consisted of drought stress (s1- wi...

drought tolerance of three own-rooted grape cultivars (rashe, ghezil uzum and red sultanina) was evaluated at four different levels of soil moisture contents (40, 60, 80 and 100% field capacity through a factorial experiment based on a randomized complete block design with three replications for a duration of 3 months. results revealed that, grape cultivars, levels of soil moisture and the inte...

seeds deterioration is a natural phenomenon that occurs in all seeds and leading to gradual decline of seed viability during storage. however, the rate at which seeds age depends upon their physiological status, genetic constitution and storage conditions. in the present study we the examined relationship between accumulation of reducing and non-reducing of sugars, soluble protein, the activity...
