Rapeseed (Brassica napus L.) is a crop relatively tolerant to salt. The effect of different ratios of NaCl/KCl was studied in two cultivars (Hyola308 and Kristina) of Rapeseed in 2002. Canola seedlings were grown in Hoagland’s solutions, which were salinized by different ratios of NaCl/KCl. The treatments or KCl:NaCl ratios were 0:0 (control);10:10; 20:0 (Total Added Salt or TAS=20 mol.m-3), 0:...

Rhizoctonia solani causes economically important root and hypocotyl diseases in common bean throughout the world. Root health is a vital factor in plant development and root diseases would negatively influence water and nutrient uptake as well as cause direct stand reduction and root rot damage to the crop. An efficient common bean screening method to evaluate damping-off and early root/ hypoco...

the susceptibility to terbacil of six randomly selected strawberry cultivars (‘aromas’, ‘chambly’, ‘harmonie’, ‘kent’, ‘la clé des champs’ and ‘seascape’) was analysed using chlorophyll florescence (cf) in comparison with visual observation, in an attempt to develop a method for use in a breeding programme to select herbicide-resistant strawberry lines. terbacil was applied at one of five rates...

in order to study the trend of bnyvv concentrations during growing season, 6 cultivars including dorohtea, laetitia(as resistant cultivars), zarghan (as a tolerant cultivar), shirin (as a susceptible cultivar), f2-93 (an f2 population with 75 % rz2 gene) and bc1-261-99 (a population with 25% rz2 gene) were used. the cultivars were planted in split plot based on a randomized complete block desig...

in order to evaluation of morphological selection criteria for salt tolerance screening in wheat (t. aestivum l.) a factorial experiment based on completely randomized design in 3 replications were conducted under greenhouse condition. salinity treatments involved 4 levels: s=1.3dsm-1 (control), 5, 10, 15 dsm-1 from calcium chloride and sodium chloride with 10:1 (na: ca ratio) and another facto...

rapeseed (brassica napus l.) is a crop relatively tolerant to salt. the effect of different ratios of nacl/kcl was studied in two cultivars (hyola308 and kristina) of rapeseed in 2002. canola seedlings were grown in hoagland’s solutions, which were salinized by different ratios of nacl/kcl. the treatments or kcl:nacl ratios were 0:0 (control);10:10; 20:0 (total added salt or tas=20 mol.m-3), 0:...

plants are always exposed to vast aspects of either environmental biotic or abiotic stresses and those stresses affecting the plant growth and therefore crop production. molecular and physiological mechanisms influence plant resistance to environmental stresses, therefore the identification of these mechanisms can be an important step in challenging the damages. in this study, plant physiologic...
