Water deficiency is one of the most important environmental stresses that limit plant growth and crop production. Measurement of chlorophyll fluorescence parameters is considered as an important indicator to evaluate the photosynthetic apparatus. In the present study, the effects of regulated water deficit, investigated in four water-regimes in pistachio orchard with 12-year-old trees of Akbari...

Study the effects of inoculation with two arbuscular mycorrhizal (AM) fungi, Gm (Glomus mosseae T.H. Nicolson & Gerd.)Gerd & Trappe) and Gi (Glomus intraradices  N.C. Schenck & G.S. Sm.) on the  herb yield, essential oil (EO) content and nutrient acquisition of basil (Ocimum basilicum L.) under drought stress conditions,The experiment conducted with 9 treatments and 4 replications. Drought stre...

this study was carried out to investigate the effects of different irrigation regimes and planting methods on yield, yield components, morphological traits, and storage characteristics of a local onion cultivar, namely, goli ghesse. the experiment was conducted as a factorial split plot design with rcbd arrangement in four replications and for three years at kheirabad research station. irrigati...

BACKGROUND Surgical site infections (SSIs) are wound infections that occur after an operative procedure. A preventable complication, they are costly and associated with poorer patient outcomes, increased mortality, morbidity and reoperation rates. Surgical wound irrigation is an intraoperative technique, which may reduce the rate of SSIs through removal of dead or damaged tissue, metabolic wast...

A factorial experiment was conducted to evaluate the impact of super absorbents and organic wastes of rice, olive marc, vermicompost and farmyard manure on the soil water holding capacity and the growth of plant based on randomized complete block design with 13 treatments at two irrigation intervals 5 and 10 days. The olive saplings with same heights and better appearances were planted...

in the present study, the effects of different cadmium (cd) levels of irrigation water (0, 5, 10 and 20 mg l-1) on corn plants (foliage) under different irrigation intervals (1, 3, and 7 days) were investigated. clear cd toxicity symptoms appeared on the plants at the end of the experiment. the results showed that stem dry weight (dw) followed by transpiration (t) and plant height were the meas...

                In order to determine the best developmental stage of three common bean cultivars (Talash, COS16 and Khomain) at which maximum seed quality is attained under different irrigation regimes (I1-irrigation after 60 mm, I2-irrigation after 80 mm and I3-irrigation after 100 mm evaporation from class A pan), a split plot experiment (using R.C.B. design) with 3 replications was conducte...
