Seed deterioration as an irreversible physiological phenomenon, have significant effect on seed quality. Increasing and maintaining of seed quality by using methods such as biopriming is important. For this reason a three-factors experiment was conducted on one linseed cultivar (Norman) based on randomized completely design with four replications, in laboratory  of Seed Science and Technol...

In order to study the effect of seed priming on morphophysiological characteristics of seedlings of chickpea (Cicer arietinum L.) under salinity stress, a factorial experiment based on completely randomized design with three replications was conducted at the Research Center for Plant Sciences, Ferdowsi University of Mashhad, Iran, in 2011. In this study, osmotic solutions of NaCl with electri...

in order to evaluation of nitrogen fertilizer application and seed inoculation by azotobacter and azosprillium on yield, rate and grain filling period of corn sc-500 cultivar, a factorial experiment was conducted based on randomized complete block design with three replications in farm of agriculture and natural resource research center of azarbaijan-e- shargi province in 2011. the factors were...

The main purpose of this research was to evaluate how duration and priming method may affect the germination and growth of cumin seed (Cuminum cyminum L.). The study was carried out in 3 replication by using a randomized completely block (RCB) design. The experimental treatments included: control, [hydro-priming in two durations of 24 and 48 h], [osmo-priming (0.2% of KNO3 in 24 and 48 h, 0.3% ...

nitric oxide (no) is a small molecule synthesized by most of mammalian cells with diverse biological activities including vasodilatation, host defense and wound healing. impaired wound healing is a common occurrence among diabetics and patients receiving glucocorticoid therapy. on the other hand the application of laser in biomedical area have been increased. thus, the current studies were desi...

Germination is the first and the most stages for sainfoin (Onobrychis viciifolia) growth; which it has especially sensitivity to environmental stresses such as alkalinity. The current study was conducted to evaluate the effectiveness of seed pre-treatment methods on improving sainfoin tolerance to alkali stress in germination, early growth and its recovery as a factorial experiment based o...
