Soil and water salinity substantially constrain crop and biomass production. To investigate the changes in morphological parameters of lisianthus (Eustoma grandiflorum) cultivars under CaCl2 salinity conditions a greenhouse experiment was conducted. Cultivars namely, ‘Champagne’ (C1), ‘Lime Green’ (C2), ‘Blue Picotee’ (C3) and ‘Pure White’ (C4), were subjected to salt stress (0–30 mM CaCl2) in ...

Turfgrass nutrient uptake may be differentially affected by different salts. The objective of this study was to compare nutrient uptake in tall fescue (Festuca arundinacea Schreb.) as affected by carbonate, chloride, and sulfate under iso-osmotic, iso-Na+ strength conditions. 'Tar Heel II' and 'Wolfpack' cultivars were subjected to NaCl, Na2CO3, Na2SO4, CaCl2, NaCl+ CaCl2, Na2CO3+ CaCl2, and Na...

Salinity is one of the most important problems that restrict cultivation of crops in arid and semi-arid regions. Pistachio (Pistacia vera L.) is one of the most important trees that grow in these restricts. In this greenhouse study, the effects of salinity on growth of pistachio rootstock Badami evaluated. Seedlings were grown in plastic bags containing perlite. Salinity was imposed, by adding ...

The aim of this work was to analyse the response of Rosa rubiginosa to salinity induced by different concentrations of sodium chloride and calcium chloride (0, 25, 50, 100, 150 and 200 mM). Besides salt accumulation and pH changes, other parameters were investigated including photosynthetic activity, leaf water content, the dynamics of necrosis and chlorosis appearance and leaf drying. The stud...

Natural fluids approximated by the H2O–NaCl–CaCl2 system are common in a wide range of geologic environments, including sedimentary basins associated with hydrocarbon occurrences and MVT deposits, submarine hydrothermal systems, and other metamorphic, magmatic and hydrothermal environments. We present a comprehensive numerical model and Microsoft Excel -based computer program to determine the c...

in order to investigate the effects of supplementary calcium chloride and potassium nitrate on plant growth of ammi (carum copticum l.) in different salinity levels and nutrient solutions (ns), an experiment based on randomized complete block design (rcbd) with factorial arrangement was conducted under greenhouse condition in the faculty of agriculture, vali-e-asr university of rafsanjan, durin...

The germination responses of Hordeum ulgare seeds to saline stress caused by different salt types was studied. For this, 25 seeds of mentioned species were placed on filter paper in Petri dishes containing distilled water (control), 60, 120, 180, 240, 300, 360 and 420 mM. saline solution of NaCl, CaCl2 an KCl. The results indicated that saline levels effects were significant (P < 0.05) for seed...
