to evaluate the effects of various concentration of carbon dioxide and salinity stress on morphophysiological characteristics of amaranthus tricolor l. an experiment was conducted in greenhouse conditions in faculity of agriculture ferdowsi university of mashhad. the experiment was split plot based on completely randomized design with three levels of co2 (380, 700, 1050 µl/l) and three concentr...

in order to study impacts of organic manure levels and inoculation with mycorrhiza fungi on growth, quantitative and qualitative yield of hyssop (hyssopus officinalis l.), a field experiment was conducted as factorial based on a randomized complete block design with three replications at the agricultural research station, ferdowsi university of mashhad, during two growing seasons of 2009-2010 a...

Background and aim: The genus Satureja L. (Lamiaceae) includes 12 species of annual and perennial herbaceous plant in Iran. Satureja species have economic and medicinal importance because of their high essential oil content. In addition, they are used as culinary herbs and in the food, perfume and cosmetic industries. The aim of this study was to inve...

The watermelon [Citrullus lanatus (Thunb.) Matsum. and Nakai] cultivar Crimson Tide and 7 different gourd genotypes [Cucurbita maxima, C. moschata, Luffa cylindrica, Benincasa hispida, Lagenaria siceraria landraces (Skp and Birecik), and L. siceraria hybrid (FRGold)] with rootstock potential for watermelon were grown under saline conditions (0, 4, 8, 12, and 16 dS m) to investigate the response...

Citrus plants are widely cultivated around the world and, however, are one of the most salt stress sensitive crops. To improve salinity tolerance, transgenic Carrizo citrange rootstocks that overexpress glyoxalase I and glyoxalase II genes were obtained and their salt stress tolerance was evaluated. Molecular analysis showed high expression for both glyoxalase genes (BjGlyI and PgGlyII) in 5H03...

In order to evaluate the different growing media and nitrogen fertilizer (urea) on some morphological traits of Spathiphyllum plant, an experiment was carried out in split plot arrangement based on completely randomized design in three replications in greenhouse conditions in 2018. The main plot consisted of different growing media including T1: Leaf-mold, T2: Vermicompost and T3: A mi...

Studies were conducted to characterize the effect of advanced potato (Solanum tuberosum L.) seed-tuber age on plant growth potential and whole-plant morphology. Plant growth from single-eye seedcores from 5- to 18-month old ;Russet Burbank' seedtubers was compared. Loss in apical dominance was apparent with advanced age. On a per-core basis, the amount of plant dry weight was equal for the two ...
