Water-deficit stress poses tremendous constraints to sustainable agriculture, particularly under abrupt climate change. Hence, it is crucial find eco-friendly approaches ameliorate drought tolerance, especially for sensitive crops such as maize. This study aimed at assessing the impact of seed halo-priming on seedling vigor, grain yield, and water use efficiency maize various irrigation regimes...

Defoliation produced by abiotic factors and the subsequent re-growth can reduce sugar beet (Beta vulgaris L.) sucrose content and final sugar yield. Field experiments were conducted during 2003 and 2004 growing seasons in the farm of Hellenic Sugar Industry SA, Larissa factory, central Greece. Three sugar beet cultivars (Rival, Europa and Corsica) were ordinary irrigated till the beginning of J...

tak-ab is a new winter bread wheat cultivar developed from evaluation of icarda-turkey-cimmyt international bread wheat germplasm to supplementary irrigation areas. study of new cultivars under supplementary irrigation in maragheh and ardebil research stations (2005-2012) showed that, tak-ab had high grain potential under supplementary irrigation conditions. based on results means of grain yiel...
