Short-term waterlogging stress-induced changes in phosphatase (P-ase) activities in relationship with phosphorus were studied in sorghum (Sorghum bicolor). Waterlogging was imposed by watering 3-day-old grown seedlings with water. The shoots and roots were harvested and P-ase activities were estimated. Significant waterlogging stress-induced increase in shoot and root P-ase activities coupled w...

in order to study the effect of natural antitranspirant compound and water stress on growth, development and essential oil content of ocimumbasilicum a factorial experiment based on completely randomized design with three replicates was conducted. 3 levels of water stress (500 as control, 375 and 250 ml/day) and 3 antitranspirant compound (chitosan, plantago mucilage and psyllium mucilage) in 3...

in order to evaluate the effect of water stress on fruit quality and quantity of some iranian melons, the experiment was set out in a split plot design with three replicates in research filed of university of zanjan in 2014. treatments consisted arrangement of three irrigation levels (starting irrigation at 100, 66 and 33 etc) and 11 genotypes of iranian melons (ʼkhatouniʻ, ʼkaliʻ, ʼorshangʻ, ʼ...

Conducting research on monitoring contaminated fields by heavy metals is necessary in order to achieve sustainable agriculture, increase product quality and keep public health. This study was carried out using split plot experiment based on randomized complete blocks design with three replications during 2014-2015 in Shavor Agricultural Research Center in order to evaluate the effect of croppin...

soil and water salinity in arid and semi-arid regions, is one of the most important stresses, can severely limit crop production. black cumin (nigella sativa l.) is annual important herbal plant in rununculaceae family that sense to salinity. this study was conducted to evaluate the effects of the priming on seed germination of black cumin under saline stress. the experiment was carried out as ...

to evaluate the effect of arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi under water deficit stress on linseed, a field experiment was conducted as split-plot in rcbd design with three replications at the research station of faculty of agriculture at shahrekord university in 2013. water deficit stress at four levels of no stress, mild, medium and severe stress as main factor and inoculation with glomus intraradi...

In order to evaluate the tuber fresh weight and some physiological attributes of Agria potato cultivar in response to water deficit stress and mycorrhiza inoculation, a field trial was conducted as a split plot scheme based on randomized complete block design with three replications at the research site of Islamic Azad University, Tabriz Branch in 2012. Four water levels including: irrigation a...

abstract water deficit and consecutive droughts have lead to drought stress in most parts of the world recently. we need prepare a good program to use better available water. different material can be used to increase water use efficiency. super absorbent is one of the materials used around the world. these materials absorb water in the soil so that reserved water is usable by plant in the time...
