This study was conducted to evaluate changes in antioxidants, free proline, relative water content and determination of root colonization of four commercial wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) cultivars (Azar2, Darab2, Shiraz, and Falat) inoculated with the fungus Glomus intraradices, under four water regimes of 100, 75, 50, and 25% of field capacity in the year 2010 at the School of Agriculture, Shir...

with population growing throughout the world, it is necessary to optimize water use,especially in agricultural lands. in order to conduct technical and economical evaluation ofdrip and furrow irrigation methods under deficit irrigation of cotton, a field experiment wascarried out during 2010 growing season at experimental farm of orzoueyeh agricultural andnatural resources research center in ke...

Indiahas the largest area under onion (Allium cepa) crop but its average productivity (14.21 t ha-1) is considerably lower than the world’s average of 19.4 t ha-1. Besides low productivity, irrigation efficiencies are also very low i.e. 30-35% in India. Managing onion crop with less than adequate irrigation water availability is a challenge in several parts of the country. Options of i) deficit...

The influence of salinity on the different polyamine fractions (free, conjugated, and bound) was compared in a natrophilic halophyte (Beta vulgaris L. cv. IC) and a salt sensitive glycophyte (Nicotiana rustica L. cv. Basmas). Low-level salinity (25 mM NaCl) and high salinity (150 and 50 mM NaCl for sugar beet and tobacco, respectively) were supplied in hydroponics. Under low salinity shoot dry ...

the effect of seed inoculation by phosphate solubilizing microorganisms on growth, yield and nutrient uptake of maize (zea mays l. sc. 704) was studied in a field experiment. this experiment was conducted in meshkin abad experimental station during 2005. the experiment design consisted of four randomized complete blocks in a split-factorial arrangement. the main-plots regarding simulating water...
