spatial measurements of conductivity, temperature and depth were used to study salinity variations along the principal channels of the tidal hypersaline creek network in the vicinity of bushehr port, persian gulf during three 25- tidal cycles in both warm and cold months. salinity variations and tidal fluctuations were out of phase throughout the short inverse estuary. the salinity values insid...

Salinity causes oxidative stress in plants by enhancing production of reactive oxygen species, so that an efficient antioxidant system, of which ascorbic acid (AsA) is a key component, is an essential requirement of tolerance. However, antioxidant responses of plants to salinity vary considerably among species. Limonium stocksii is a sub-tropical halophyte found in the coastal marshes from Guja...

in order to determine the effects of zinc foliar application on the vegetative characteristics, yield and fruit quality in strawberry (fragaria × ananassa duch) cv kordestan under salinity stress conditions, an experiment was carried out hydroponically in glasshouse as a controlled environment during 2009 through 2010. three levels of nacl (0, 15, 30 mm) and three levels of zn (0, 1.5, 3 g/l) w...

abstarct at the present study effects of salinity were studied on growth and feeding performance, survival rate and blood biochemical parameters of pre on-growing rainbow trout (oncorhynchus mykiss) with initial weight 93.22±4.11 g for 60 days. after adaptation for 10 days to water salinity, 450 fish were distributed in 5 treatments and 3 replicates according to completely randomized design. be...

crops growing in salt-affected soils may suffer from physiological drought stress, ion toxicity, and mineral deficiency. a pot study was conducted in 2004-2005 in the aghala area (northern iran) to study the effect of different salinity levels, i.e. ece= 3 (control), 8, 12 and 16 ds m-1 on wheat grain, yield components and leaf ion uptake of four iranian wheat genotypes, i.e. kouhdasht, atrak, ...

in order to investigate the effects of saline waters on some soil characteristics, this experiment was conducted with three irrigation water salinity treatments contains 1.7-3.4, 8-9 and 11-12.5 dsm-1 (low, medium and high salinity) and two irrigation water managements with four replications in a wheat-fallow-sugar beet-safflower rotation. results show that in (1) irrigation management with low...

Crops growing in salt-affected soils may suffer from physiological drought stress, ion toxicity, and mineral deficiency. A pot study was conducted in 2004-2005 in the Aghala area (northern Iran) to study the effect of different salinity levels, i.e. ECe= 3 (control), 8, 12 and 16 dS m-1 on wheat grain, yield components and leaf ion uptake of four Iranian wheat genotypes, i.e. Kouhdasht, Atrak, ...
