Abstract Background In arid and semiarid countries, grain yield of maize is increasingly impaired by soil salinity. Beside amelioration, the development salt‐resistant cultivars a possibility to enhance crop on salt‐affected soils. Aims This study aimed at testing performance in field hybrids soil. addition, planting density was optimized under saline conditions. Methods Four ( Zea mays L. SR‐0...

in order to study of the effect of priming and salinity on physiological and chemical characteristics of wheat(triticum aestivum l.), an experiment was carried out at the experimental farm of shiraz university. results showedthat primed plants significantly reduced its gas exchanges by accelerating senescence under a series of salt stress,which became more serious along with the increasing of s...

Almond production is concentrated in semi arid regions where fresh surface water supplies are increasingly scarce and ground waters often salinized. In drought years growers have to restrict application, either stressing the trees with inadequate or adding saline reducing stress but causing salt stress. Tree response combined critical management decisions there little no information at this tim...

Twenty locally grown tomato cultivars were evaluated for their in vitro heat tolerance. Leaf discs were collected during vegetative, flowering and fruiting stages and incubated in water bath at 40°C for 1, 2 and 3 hours. Electrical conductivity (EC) was measured as an indication of cell injury due to electrolytes leakage. The results indicated that cultivars can be classified into three groups ...

water deficit is a major factor influencing yield of canola (brassica napus l.) seed yield and oil content. a field experiment was conducted during 2010 growing season in the agriculture research station of torogh, mashhad, iran to evaluate responses of canola cultivars to limited water. experimental design was rcbd pattern with three replications. treatments were two irrigation regimes (based ...

The Fig (Ficus carica.L) is a woody perennial crop, cultivated worldwide in subtropical regions. Since, salinity is the main concern of fig industry, therefore, studying the pattern of ion absorption and accumulation contribute during the stress in different plant organs can lead understanding the mechanism of tolerance/sensitivity. So, during 2016-2017, seven fig cultivars (‘Sabzʼ, ‘Siyahʼ, ‘S...

Salinity may strongly influence the interaction between plant roots and surrounding soil, but this has been poorly studied for sodium sulfate (Na2SO4). The aim of study was to investigate effect chloride (NaCl) Na2SO4 salinities on soil chemical properties as well rice physiological- yield-related parameters two contrasted cultivars (V14 (salt-sensitive) Pokkali (salt-resistant)). Pot experimen...
