This research was carried out in the experimental area of Eastern Mediterranean Agricultural Research Institute 2012 and 2013. In study, four different chemical applications (Thidiazuron, Ethephon+cyclanilide + Thidiazuron, Glyphosate, Ethephon+cyclanilide) were used chickpea cultivars (İnci, Hasanbey, Seçkin Aydın), two sowing times for winter (December), Summer (February) harvest maturity. It...

The involvement of ethylene in reversal salt (NaCl; 50 mM) stress on photosynthetic activity and growth by salicylic acid (SA; 0.5 together with sulfur (S; 2.0 was studied mustard (Brassica juncea L. cv. Pusa Vijay). Application SA plus SO42? improved through markedly increased S-assimilation, strengthening antioxidant defense system limiting NaCl-accrued oxidative consequences more conspicuous...

BACKGROUND AND AIMS Despite their toxicity, reactive oxygen species (ROS) play important roles in plant cell signalling pathways, such as mediating responses to stress or infection and in programmed cell death, at lower levels. Although studies have indicated that hydrogen peroxide (H(2)O(2)) promotes seed germination of several plants such as Arabidopsis, barley, wheat, rice and sunflower, the...
