The effect of soil salinity on plant growth is due to two factors, namely, increase in osmotic pressure of soil solution and the ionic composition of salt. The present experiment was conducted to obtain information about the response of pistachio (Pistacia vera L.) to salinity and ionic composition of the salt. Salinity with different relative composition of sodium chloride and sodium sulfate w...

A factorial experiment with forty one triticale genotypes and two wheat cultivars (‘Kavir’ bread wheat cultivar and ‘Dipper-6’ durum wheat cultivar as salt-tolerant genotypes) as the first factor and six salinity levels of 0, 0.5, 1, 1.5, 2 and 2.5 percent (0, 85, 170, 255, 340 and 425 mM) of NaCl as the second factor was conducted. Results indicated that the increase of salinity level has lead...

abstract objectives gradual increase length and complexity of utterance (gilcu) therapy method is a form of operant conditioning. this type of treatment is very precise and controlled that is done in 54 steps in 3 speech situations consisted of monologue, reading and conversation. this study aimed to examine the effects of gilcu treatment method on reduction of speech dysfluency of school-age...

Low quality of irrigation water along with increasing salinity level has reduced the olive yield over recent years in Iran. Screening of salinity tolerance in olive cultivars using gas-exchange parameters, water use efficiency, and relative leaf chlorophyll content are important in olive development programs. This study was carried out to assess the salinity tolerance of four olive cultivars (A...

Salinity is one of the most important environmental stresses that can affect crop yields. Identification of salt tolerant plants such as soybean, one of the most important oilseed crops, has a great importance. For this purpose, a factorial experiment in the completely randomized design with three replications was performed in the Sari Agricultural Sciences and Natural Resources University's gr...

A breeding hexaploid salt tolerant wheat line (MS-81-14) was produced from crossing of an Iranian salt tolerant wheat line (1-66-22) with Inia cultivar (from CIMMYT) at Karaj Research Station in 1991-92 cropping season. The F1 plants were grown at Karaj in 1992-93 cropping season, furthermore F2-F6 populations were evaluated under salinity stress conditions (EcSoil&Water = 8-12 ds/m) in Isfah...

A great part of lands under corn cultivation are affected by different levels of salt stress. This study was conducted in order to determine the effect of different levels of salt stress on yield and some physiological characteristics of corn plants. Two experiments were carried out in greenhouse (a factorial based on randomized complete blocks design with 3 replications), and field (a split pl...
