The study was carried out to evaluate the effects of soil application of humic acid and calciumon morpho-physiological traits and Na+, Mg2+, Ca2+ uptake of Pistachio seedling (Akbari) grown under salt stress.  A completely randomized design was used with four replications in greenhouse conditions. The experimental treatment consisted of four levels of humic acid (Bis humic) (0, 4, 8 and 12 gr k...

Suboptimal levels of phosphorus (P) strongly inhibited leaf expansion in young cotton (Gossypium hirsutum L.) plants during the daytime, but had little effect at night. The effect of P was primarily on cell expansion. Compared to plants grown on high P, plants grown on low P had lower leaf water potentials and transpiration rates, and greater diurnal fluctuations in leaf water potential. Hydrau...

drought is one of the most important factors limiting growth and yield in many parts of the world. in order to evaluate the effects of drought stress on some morphological and physiological traits of two cultivars of bean, two red beans (derakhshan and goli) in four drought treatments including 25%, 50%, 75%, control 100% field capacity were studied in a factorial experiment based on complete r...

this experiment was conducted to study the effect of plastic mulch on the growth and some physiological characteristics of two strawberry cultivars (paros and queen elisa) under drought stress. a factorial experiment was performed based on randomized complete block design with four treatments, including mulch, without mulch, normal irrigation (control) and deficit irrigation (-10 bar) with thre...

Four-week-old French Colombard plants rooted from green cuttings were inoculated with 0, 1,000, 2,000, 4,000, or 8,000 Meloidogyne incognita second-stage juveniles and maintained at 25 C night and 30 C day. Leaf area and dry weight and the rates of photosynthesis, stomatal conductance, and internal leaf CO concentration were measured at intervals up to 59 days after inoculation. Nematode stress...

In the floriculture industry, the need for heat tolerant bedding plant cultivars is increasing because of the rising temperature around the world. A pot experiment was carried out to examine the impacts of four heat stress durations (0, 7, 14 and 21 days) on growth and ornamental traits to determine the relative heat tolerance of four cultivars of calendula (Calendula officinalis). Growth and d...

topping stage of tobacco is a key time for development of agriculture measures to promote the quality of leaves. in order to investigating influence of topping timing and suckericide content on tobacco leaf, a factorial experiment on the basis of rcb design with 3 replications was conducted in 2011 at the tobacco research farm of isfahan. treatments were including topping time (t1: topping at e...
