in order to study of drought tolerance levels in some wheat lines and cultivars based on uniform regional wheat yield trial (urwyt-m-75) an experiment was carried out using a strip plot design based on complete block design with 3 replications for two years (1998-2000) in torogh agricultural research station (mashhad, iran). the main plots (horizontal factor) were 3 levels of irrigation: 10, 20...

this experiment was conducted to evaluate the drought tolerance of cultivated (carthamus tinctorius l.) and wild safflower (c. oxyacanthus bieb) populations at research farm of college of agriculture, isfahan university of technology located at lavark-najafabad in 2008. a randomized complete block design with 3 replications was used in each of irrigation levels after 80, 130 and 180 mm evaporat...

Drought stress is one of the most important abiotic stresses influencing performance of crop plants. Therefore, the identification or development of tolerant genotypes is of high importance for incorporating in cotton production. In this study to evaluate the effect of drought stress on some cotton traits, 5 improved cotton varieties were studied in a split plot design with three replications i...

in order to evaluate terminal drought tolerance in different canola cultivars based on drought tolerance indices, an experiment was conducted based on randomized complete block design (rcbd) with three replications at experimental field of seed and plant improvement institute (spii), karaj in 2008-09. results using stress tolerance index (sti), geometric mean productivity (gmp) and mean product...

Plants, being sessile in nature, have developed mechanisms to cope with high salt concentrations in the soil. In this study, the effects of NaCl (50-200 mM) on expression of high-affinity potassium transporters (HKTs), antioxidant enzymes and their isozyme profiles were investigated in two contrasting bread wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) genotypes viz., HD2329 (salt-sensitive) and Kharchia65 (sal...
