Salt Tolerance of Green Soybeans as Affected by Various Salinities in Sand Culture

Salinity Tolerance of Kentucky Bluegrass as Affected by Salicylic Acid

Salinity is one of the greatest environmental challenges facing plant growth and development in the 21st century. Salicylic acid (SA) is a phenolic compound and signal molecule involved in the regulation of plants responses to biotic and abiotic stresses. This greenhouse experiment was conducted to determine effects of SA application on Kentucky bluegrass (Poa pratensis L.) responses to salinit...

Salt Tolerance of Tomato Plants as Affected by Stage of Plant Development

In order to simulate the usage of brackish irrigation water in greenhouse tomato (Lycopersicum esculentum Mill. cv. Daniela) culture in perlite, plants were supplied with nutrient solutions containing 0, 20, 40, and 60 mM NaCl. The three highest salinity treatments were applied at three different plant growth stages, during early vegetative growth [16 days after transplanting, (DAT)], beginning...

salinity tolerance of kentucky bluegrass as affected by nitrogen fertilization

in most semiarid and arid areas, fresh water shortage compels managers to use low quality water sources with high salinity to irrigate turf and landscape. recent research has noticed that management of nitrogen fertilization can alleviate salinity effects on plants. this greenhouse sand culture experiment was conducted in order to investigate morphological and physiological responses to salinit...

Extractable Phosphorus as Affected by Humic Acid Application in Salt Affected Soils

To use of organic fertilizer sources for increasing crops production on sustainable basis has become imperative because the cost of chemical fertilizers is high. An experiment was conducted during 2006 on two saltaffected soils of District Charsadda to evaluate the effect of different levels of single super phosphate (SSP) alone and in combination with humic acid (HA) on phosphorus availability...
