rapeseed (brassica napus l.) is a crop relatively tolerant to salt. the effect of different ratios of nacl/kcl was studied in two cultivars (hyola308 and kristina) of rapeseed in 2002. canola seedlings were grown in hoagland’s solutions, which were salinized by different ratios of nacl/kcl. the treatments or kcl:nacl ratios were 0:0 (control);10:10; 20:0 (total added salt or tas=20 mol.m-3), 0:...

in this work, the effects of silicon (si) supplementation were studied in pistachio (pistacia veral. cv ahmadaghaii) plants exposed to high salinity stress. plants were grown in pots undercontrol and salt (ec=15 ds m-1) conditions without or with si treatment (0.35 g na2sio3 kg-1soil) under field conditions. salt stress reduced the plants’ growth significantly in both –si and+si plants; however...

as sesame is a somewhat neglected crop, information concerning its response to salinity is lacking. the effects of nacl stress were studied on seven genotypes of sesamum indicum l. the 6-weeks-old sesame seedlings were treated with different nacl concentrations (0, 30, and 60 mm). the nacl caused significant decreases in fresh and dry mass of all genotypes; however responses of genotypes to the...

salt stress is a factor limiting crop growth and productivity around the world. developing salt tolerant cultivars using desired plant features has been considered as a way to cope with the problem. in this study, a factorial experiment was used in order to determine the effects of salt stress on stomatal length at abaxial and adaxial leaf surfaces, relative water content (rwc) and transpiratio...

In this work, the effects of silicon (Si) supplementation were studied in pistachio (Pistacia veraL. cv Ahmadaghaii) plants exposed to high salinity stress. Plants were grown in pots undercontrol and salt (EC=15 dS m-1) conditions without or with Si treatment (0.35 g Na2SiO3 Kg-1soil) under field conditions. Salt stress reduced the plants’ growth significantly in both –Si and+Si plants; however...

in order to identify and selection salt tolerant hybrids based on tolerance indices, 17 sugar beet three-way cross hybrids produced by crosses between 17 salinity improved s1 pollinators and a cytoplasmic male sterile (cms) single cross as female, along with three control genotypes were grown in 2007 in rudasht station (isfahan) under saline (12 ds/m and 8 ds/m for water and soil) and non-salin...

salt stress negatively impacts crops yield throughout the world. nine varieties of potato (solanum tuberosum l.) were screened for salt stress tolerance by measuring in-vitro growth of the aerial plant parts, as well as roots. salt stress was evaluated by adding 25, 50, 75, 100, 125, 150 and 200 mm of nacl to murashige- skoog (ms) medium and compared to ms medium without nacl. plant length and ...

abstract plants are exposed to stressful environmental conditions in the process of growth and development. one of the most important stresses is the salt stress which can limit the plant’s growth and yield. plants symbiosis with arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi in salt conditions can affect the plant’s yield as well as growth parameters. the plant’s growth in salt stressful conditions might be red...
