drought stress has been well documented as an effective parameter in decreasing crop production, developing and releasing new varieties which are adaptable to water deficit conditions can be a constructive program to overcome unsuitable environmental conditions. in order to evaluate the adaptation of rice genotypes to drought stress and to identify the tolerant and sensitive genotypes, 15 genot...

Selecting and cultivating the crops/varieties that can tolerate water salinity is potentially animportant strategy to save fresh water resources and maximize the crop yield in salt affected areas.To evaluate the responses of 36 sorghum lines and cultivars to salinity stress, two fieldexperiments were conducted in non-stress (EC=2 dS/m) and salinity stress conditions (EC=12dS/m) using randomized...

in order to investigate the effects of water deficit at different growth stages of chickpea genotypes, determining the best drought tolerance index and genotypes, an experiment carried out in the saatlu agricultural research station of uromia in 2008-2009. the experiment was split plot based on the randomized complete blocks design with four replications, in which, four levels of irrigation as ...

The creation of salt-tolerant wheat genotypes can provide a basis for sustainable production in areas that are particularly sensitive to the impacts climate change on soil salinity. This study aimed select could serve as genetic resource breeding salinity tolerance. A two-year experiment was established with 27 genotypes, grown stress and non-stress conditions. Agronomic parameters (plant heigh...

At sub-40 nm CMOS technology nodes, the implementation of shallow trench isolation (STI) becomes more challenging due to shrinking geometries and stricter device leakage requirements. As device geometries are shrinking, STI liner is also becoming thinner and plays an important role for the minimal consumption of device active area while effectively rounding the STI corner and minimizing stress-...

the deleterious effects of salinity on plant growth and development are associated with the imbalance ion in plant, decreased k+ and increased na+, and ultimately yield loss. in order to evaluate the effects of salinity, 41 bread wheat varieties (trticum aestivum l.) were planted in the randomized complete block design with three replications under two saline irrigation conditions, 0.631 and 11...
