The effects of regulated deficit irrigation (RDI) were studied on 9 year-old apricot-trees (Prunus armeniaca L. cv. ‘Búlida’) grafted on ‘Real Fino’ rootstock. Two irrigation treatments were established. The first, a control treatment, was irrigated to fully satisfy the crop water requirements (100% ETc) and the second, a RDI treatment, was subject to water shortage during the non-critical peri...

soil and water salinity is a major constraint in arid and semi-arid regions. in order to study the impact of water salinity on physiological characteristics and dry matter production of six linseed genotypes, a 4-replicate factorial randomized complete block pot experiment was conducted. salinity consisted of four levels: 0 (control), 35 (low salinity), 70 (intermediate salinity) and 105 mm (se...

A field investigation was conducted at Agronomy research farm A. S. (P.G) College, Lakhaoti, Bulandshahr during rabi seasons of 2006 and 2007. The treatments consisted combination four cropping systems viz. chickpea sole (M1), linseed (M2), chickpea+ 2:1 ratio (M3) pigeonpea + 4:2 (M4) in main plots; two irrigations vegetative stages (30-40 days) flowering stage (70-75 (S1) one irrigation (S2) ...

in order to effect of different mulch materials and optimal chemical, organic and biological fertilizer management on ecological agriculture characteristics in common purslane (portulaca oleracea l.) in khuzestan conditions, a filed experiment was conducted at experimental field of ramin agriculture and natural resources university in ahwaz, south-western of iran, during 2010- 2011 growing seas...

It is very important to seek a simple nondestructive method to continuously measure plant water status for irrigation scheduling. Changes in stem diameter in response to plant water status and soil water content (SWC) were experimentally investigated during the growing seasons of 2011/2012 and 2012/2013 in pot-cultivated tomato (Lycopersicon esculentum L.) plants in a plastic greenhouse. This s...

The occ urrence of water sources with high concentrations salts is a common problem in the semi-arid region ofnorth-eastern Brazil. search for management strategies that can minimize effect salt stress on crops therefore extremelyimportant. As such, this study aimed to evaluate gas exchange and production yellow passion fruit ‘BRS GA1’as function ofirrigation using brackish doses potassium. res...

This experiment was conducted on NS Leviathan hybrids during the summer season under semiarid region. It designed as a split plot factorial arrangement using randomized complete block design (RCBD) with three replications. The purpose of this to determine skipping irrigating effect I1, I2, and I3 salicylic acid applied S1 non-applied S0 yield at growth stages (vegetative, flowering, achene-form...
