salinity and drought are two major abiotic stresses that affect rice (oryza sativa l.) production in worldwide. salt and drought tolerance and high seedling vigor of rice is one of the important traits in the establishment of seedling in direct planting system and saline and drought environments. in this research, the mapping population of f2:4 families derived from the cross between local vari...

in order to assess the effect of salinity constraint on some agro-physiological and biochemical traits in medicago sativa l., four alfalfa populations (tafilalet 1, tafilalet 2, demnate and tata), originated from mountains and oasis of morocco, were tested. the plants were grown under greenhouse conditions in pots filled with sand and peat under three salt treatments (0, 100 and 200 mm nacl). t...

TurhAn, A. and V. Seniz, 2012. Salt tolerance during vegetative growth in cross of tomato and effect of cytoplasm in response to salt tolerance. Bulg. J. Agric. Sci., 18: 207-218 The aim of the present study was the determination of salt tolerance differences among tomato crosses by using morphological, physiological parameters and the identification cytoplasm related to salt tolerance mechanis...

summary. The aim of this investigation was to identity effective criteria for classification of salt tolerance and salt sensitivity in rice cultivars by using multivariate characters. Osmolarity in salt-stressed leaves decreased, and was positively related to low water potential (Ψ w) (r 2 =0.99 and r 2 =1), leading to chlorophyll a degradation (r 2 =0.65 and r 2 =0.77) in both salt-tolerant (H...

soil salinity affects a large part of the region in iran. salinity covers 12.5% oftotal area of the country. priming of seeds in sodium chloride and water (hydro-priming)has been reported to be a simple technique for enhancing the seedling establishment andgermination performance in the seeds of many crops and small seeded grasses under thestress conditions. therefore, the aim of this research ...

conclusions the results presented herein provided insight into a possible explanation for the modes of action of essential oils on l. monocytogenes. the outcome of the present study may aid the food industry in locating the most promising potential anti-listerial agents from edible seaweed sources to control l. monocytogenes and also in facilitating their application in food processing and pres...

The observations of a long-term experiment on the use of saline water were used to compare the crop tolerance to salinity. Salinity affected significantly yield, evapotranspiration, pre-dawn leaf water potential and stomatal conductance. The higher the salinity, the lower the yield, evapotranspiration, pre-dawn leaf water potential and stomatal resistance. The crop classification, based on soil...

rice (oryza sativa), a salt-sensitive species, has considerable genetic variation for salt tolerance within cultivars. to evaluate salinity effects on growth, chlorophyll content and ion uptake of two rice genotypes (ir29 and ir651, sensitive and tolerant respectively) accompany with two semi-tolerant iranian rice cultivars in a green house experiment were grown in normal condition till 6th lea...

Breeding salt tolerant plants is difficult without utilizing a diversity of wild crop relatives. Since the genus Vigna (family Fabaceae) is comprised of many wild relatives adapted to various environmental conditions, we evaluated the salt tolerance of 69 accessions of this genus, including that of wild and domesticated accessions originating from Asia, Africa, Oceania, and South America. We gr...
