Selection of olive varieties for tolerance to iron chlorosis.

چکیده
Under certain conditions, olive trees grown on calcareous soils suffer from iron chlorosis. In the present study several olive varieties and scion-rootstock combinations were evaluated for their tolerance to iron chlorosis. Plants were grown over several months in pots with a calcareous soil, under two fertilization treatments. These consisted of periodic applications of nutrient solutions containing either, 30 micromol/L FeEDDHA or not Fe. Tolerance was assessed by the chlorosis and growth parameters of plants grown without Fe, compared to those plants grown with Fe. Results show that there are differences in tolerance among olive varieties and that tolerance is mainly determined by the genotype of the rootstock. These results open the way to use tolerant varieties for those conditions where iron chlorosis could become a problem.

The effect of bicarbonate on iron (Fe) and zinc (Zn) uptakes by soybean varieties
Bicarbonate anion, has a very high concentration in the calcareous soil, and in fact, is the main cause of chlorosis in calcareous soils. This study was conducted to evaluate eight soybean cultivars with iron deficiency and bicarbonate presence. The present research was carried out with the aim of assessing the effect of irrigation with water containing bicarbonate on enzyme activities and Fe a...

Iron deficiency induces several responses to iron shortage in plants. Metabolic changes occur to sustain the increased iron uptake capacity of Fe-deficient plants. We evaluated the metabolic changes of three Prunus rootstocks submitted to iron chlorosis and their different responses for tolerance using measurements of metabolites and enzymatic activities. The more tolerant rootstocks Adesoto (P...

Abstract: Temperature is one of the most important factors limiting the production and distribution of olive. Different olive cultivars show diverse responses to low temperature and so, the selection of cold tolerant cultivars is the most effective method to avoid frost damages. The main purpose of this study was to compare freezing tolerance of seven olive cultivars and to investigate the rel...

To investigate trunk injection treatment effects on eliminating chlorosis disorder and improving the growth of plane trees (Platanus orientalis L.), an experiment was arranged in a factorial experiment based on a randomized complete block design at Lavark Reasrch Farm, Isfahan University of Technology, Isfahan, Iran, with three replications and four treatments. Treatments consisted of different...
متن کاملScreening Soybean Cultivars for Resistance to Iron-Deficiency Chlorosis in Culture Solutions Containing Magnesium or Sodium Bicarbonate
Hydroponic culture solutions containing bicarbonate (HCO3 ) may be used to screen crops such as soybeans (Glycine max) for resistance to iron (Fe) deficiency or chlorosis. Some successful methods use sodium bicarbonate (NaHCO3) in combination with elevated partial pressures of carbon dioxide (CO2) to buffer pH and elevate bicarbonate. Replacing NaHCO3 with magnesium bicarbonate [Mg(HCO3)2] as t...
