Agro-physiological responses of okra genotypes cultivated under water deficit conditions

Effects of Superabsorbents on Growth and Physiological Responses of Date Palm Seedling under Water Deficit Conditions

 Irrigation is an inevitable part of agriculture which determines crop yield and thus food security. In modern era of agriculture, crop yield is determined on the basis of crop production per unit of water-use instead of crop production per land unit area. Deficit irrigation is introduced as a strategy for controlling water resources that leads to water resource preservation. Date palm requires...

Maize (Zea mays L.) Agro-Physiological Response to Potassium and Iron Fertilizer under Water Deficit Stress

This research was conducted to evaluate effect of potassium and iron fertilizers on agro-physiological traits affected different irrigation regime of corn in Shahryar (Tehran province, central of Iran) via a split-split plots arrangement based on randomized complete blocks design with three replications during 2015. The main plot included different irrigation regime (Normal irrigation and stop ...

Yield and Physiological Responses of Modern versus Obsolete Cultivars Grown under Water-deficit Conditions

Year-to-year variability in yield is a major concern in U.S. cotton production. Recent literature and hypotheses indicate that this yield variability is mostly related to extreme environmental conditions, particularly high temperatures and drought, as well as a peak in genetic improvements in yield. It is speculated that modern and obsolete cultivars partition dry matter and energy pools differ...

Soybean Under Water Deficit: Physiological and Yield Responses

Physiological response of Okra cv. Kano to foliar application of putrescine and humic acid under water deficit stress

To investigate effects of putrescine (Put) and humic acid (HA) on fruit yield and physiological attributes of okra (Abelmoschus esculentus L. 'Kano') under water deficit stress, a field experiment was conducted in split plot based on a randomized complete block design with three replications. Plants were exposed to three different irrigation regimes (33%, 66% and 100% ETc) and were treated with...
