Chlormequat chloride (CCC) as one of the most important growth retardants has been used for manipulation of growth and yield of cereal crops; however, the effect of CCC has not yet been well understood under drought stress conditions. Therefore, one greenhouse and a field experiment were conducted to examine the effects of CCC on yield and yield components of wheat in drought conditions at Coll...

Drought is considered as the most important constraint to world’s crop production. Furthermore arid and semiarid climate accounts for nearly most of terrestrial areas of Iran. Therefore in order to study the effect of irrigation regimes on growth, physiological attributes and grain yield as well as components of such a crop plant as safflower a 4-replicate split plot RCBD field study was perfor...

Due to the limited Alyssum habitats (Alyssum homalocarpum) in rangeland ecosystems, it is necessary to study various aspects of plant growth under different environmental conditions such as abiotic stresses. The aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of salinity and drought on Alyssum seed germination characteristics in laboratory conditions. The experiment was conducted based on complete...

To evaluate and select the promising lines of dual purpose grain-forage sorghum under drought stress conditions, a field experiment assplit plot arrangements in randomized complete block design with three replications was carried out atresearch field station of Seed and Plant Improvement Research Institute, Karaj, Iran, in 2014 and 2015 growing seasons. Irrigation levels (60 mm, 120 mm and 180 ...
