Wheat growth in response to soil water deficit play an important role in yield stability. A field experiment was conducted for winter wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) during the period of 2002–2005 to evaluate the effects of limited irrigation on winter wheat growth. 80%, 70%, 60%, 50% and 40% of field capacity was applied at different stages of crop growth. Photosynthetic characteristics of winter...

to determine sugar content and root yield variation of new sugar beet hybrids under different irrigation levels, an experiment was carried out at zarghan agricultural research station offars agricultural and natural resources research center, shiraz, iran. the study was conducted as split block based on a randomized complete block design with three replications for two years, 2009-10, using lin...

in order to investigate the effect of water stress at heading stage on grain yield and yield components of eight wheat cultivars, in 2008 year a research was conducted in the two regions esfahan and ardestan by using split plot in a randomized complete block design with three replications which that two irrigation treatments included custom and late season water stress were main factor and 8 wh...

two glasshouse and field experiments were conducted to assess the effects of root system, water uptake, water use efficiency and early vigor on yield and drought tolerance of bread wheat in two successive farming seasons (2009-11). the experiments were conducted as randomized complete block design and two-year results analyzed as combined design. considerable genetic variation was observed amon...

hargraves-samani method is one of the methods for calculating plant evapotranspiration that needs minimum meteorological data. in order to evaluate et-hs model in determining sugar beet crop water demand in isfahan, an experiment was conducted at research field of department of agriculture, khorasgan branch, islamic azad university, isfahan, iranin 2005. the study was based a randomized complet...

Water stress is one of the major abiotic stresses in agriculture worldwide. In order to assess photosynthesis response and grain yield of 25 wheat genotypes under water deficit (post-anthesis stress) conditions, a 2-year study (2010-12) was carried out as a split-plot arrangement using randomized complete block design with three replications. The most sensitive gas exchange variable to water de...

in the country, reducing water resources and increasing water losses in the various methods of surface irrigation, has increased attention, super drip irrigation method, especially drip tape irrigation. one of the techniques are used in cultivation of early sweet corn, the use of plastic mulch. using this technique, the reserve temperature conditions for plant growth and early maturity, resulti...

Water-deficit stresses preferentially reduce shoot growth, thereby disrupting the flow of carbohydrates from source leaves to the developing sinks. Here, we use a novel stress bioassay to dissect responses of field and greenhouse-grown cotton (Gossypium hirsutum) source leaves to water-deficit stresses. Fifth main stem leaf samples were harvested at sunrise and subjected to a prolonged elevated...
