The work is devoted to the study of characteristics irrigated soils Zhondarsky district Bukhara region, intended for sowing cotton. acreage allocated cultivation agricultural crops should have appropriate indicators that ensure not only high yields, but also high-quality products. Since many territory Uzbekistan, including oasis, are highly saline, research was carried out on territory. Along w...

One route to genetic adaptation in a novel environment is the evolution of ecological generalisation. Yet, identifying the cost that a generalist pays for the increased breadth of tolerance has proven elusive. We integrate phenotypic assays with functional genomics to understand how tolerance to a salinity gradient evolves, and we test the relationship between the fitness cost of this generalis...

Salinity stress as a major agricultural limiting factor may influence the chemical composition and bioactivity of Rosmarinus officinallis L. essential oils and leaf extracts. The application of salicylic acid (SA) hormone may alleviate salinity stress by modifying the chemical composition, gene expression and bioactivity of plant secondary metabolites. In this study, SA was applied to enhance s...

Salinity tolerance in plant species varies widely due to adaptation and acclimation processes at the cellular and whole-plant scales. In mangroves, extreme substrate salinity induces hydraulic failure and ion excess toxicity and reduces growth and survival, thus suggesting a potentially critical role for physiological acclimation to salinity. We tested the hypothesis that osmotic adjustment, a ...

Pot experiments were conducted to evaluate the damaging effects of salinity on Sesbania sesban plants in the presence and absence of arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF). The selected morphological, physiological and biochemical parameters of S. sesban were measured. Salinity reduced growth and chlorophyll content drastically while as AMF inoculated plants improved growth. A decrease in the numbe...

Salinity is one of the most severe abiotic stresses for crop production. The present study investigates salinity-induced modulation in growth indicators, morphology and movement stomata, photosynthetic pigments, activity carbonic anhydrase as well nitrate reductase, antioxidant systems two varieties chickpea (Pusa-BG5023, Pusa-BGD72). On 20th day sowing, plants were treated with varying levels ...

In this study, we have evaluated the co-application of epibrassinolide (24-EBL) and putrescine (Put) on stress indicators and antioxidant system of Solanum lycopersicum L. grown under salinity stress. EBL and Put application along with NaCl stress showed differential responses in the activities of antioxidant enzymes (superoxide dismutase, catalase and guaiacol peroxidase). Significant increase...

The spatial and temporal distribution of suspended solids, turbidity, temperature, salinity, chlorophyll a and total phosphorus were estimated and mapped with various degrees of success in Matla Estuary using satellite (Landsat Thematic Mapper) imagery. All the indicators exhibit a similar spatial pattern within the estuary. High values are found at both the saltwater and freshwater ends of the...

The Atlantic hurricanes of 1999 caused widespread environmental damage throughout the Caribbean and US mid-Atlantic coastal regions. However, these storms also proved beneficial to certain microbial habitats; specifically, cyanobacteria-dominated mats. Modern mats represent the oldest known biological communities on earth, stromatolites. Contemporary mats are dominant biological communities in ...
