effects of water stress and fusarium oxysporum f. sp. lycoperseci (fol) on the growth of tomatoes were studied in a greenhouse experiment. treatments consisted of five levels of water stress (1, 3, 5, 7 and 9 day irrigation intervals). infested soil consisting of 400 chlamydospores g1 of fol and non infested soil were used. experiments arranged in a completely randomized design with 8 replicati...

salicylic acid (sa) is a phyto-hormone that regulates physiological and biological processes in plants and can be used to improve plant growth under different environmental conditions, including water stress. thus, a field experiment as split plot factorial based on randomized complete blocks design with three replications was conducted in 2014 to investigate the effects of fertilizer and salic...

in order to study the effect of bio-fertilizers  in decrease the effects of water stress on yield, yield components and oil percentage of goldasht spring safflower cultivars (carthamus tinctorius l.), an experiment on split plot in a randomized complete block design with three replications was carried out  in 2012 at the agricultural research station of islamic azad university of roudehen branc...

within the context of climate change, water scarcity is the major constraint to the viability of many crops. thus, it is necessary to develop strategies for sustainable water management, and introduce alternative crops to sustain the viability of agro-ecosystems. the main objective of this work was to assess the performance of hemp (cannabis sativa l.) subjected to different plant densities and...

water is the most limiting factor in irrigated agriculture, mainly in mediterranean environments, as in the case of southwest spain. in this area, almond is one of the most valuable crops due to its high drought tolerance. this work examines the crop coefficients (kc) based on four drainage lysimeters installed in an experimental young almond orchard. complementary, two deficit-irrigation treat...

to evaluate the effects of water deficit stress in barley germplasm collection of national gene bank ofiran, 25 genotypes collected from arid and semi arid provinces of iran and 3 sample cultivars werestudied in two environments including: non-stressed and water deficit stress. agronomical, phenologicaland morphological traits were measured. stress indices were calculated to determine tolerant ...

In order to investigate drought stress and plant density the yield, yield components and protein of spotted bean grain (cultivar Talash), an experiment was carried out as split plots in randomized complete blocks with three replications in Yasouj, in 2012. Factors of the test including irrigation in three levels; without stress (control treatment), water stress in vegetative stage (interrupting...

Low-temperature high-stress rheology of olivine was investigated under water-saturated conditions by large strain shear deformation experiments using the Griggs-type apparatus. Samples at T=1273–1373K and P=2GPa under water-saturated conditions deformed under a significantly lower applied stress than expected from the power-law relation and the strain rate increases more rapidly with stress. Th...

Plasticity of the phenotypic architecture of wild barley, Hordeum spontaneum, was studied in response to water and nutrient stress. Direct and indirect selection on several vegetative and reproductive traits was estimated and path analysis used to reveal how regulating pathways via maternal investment differed between environments. Vegetative traits displayed differential regulating effect on f...

iran is among the world's arid and semi-arid countries. drought stress is one of the most important environmental stresses affecting fruit trees and considerably can cause yield reduction. persian walnut (juglans regia l.) with significant area harvest is one the most important nuts in iran which require sufficient amounts of water for optimal growth and efficiency. in order to study the e...
