Drought is one of the most common stresses experienced by plants and limits plant growth throughout the world, especially in the arid and semi-arid areas. In this research, the effect of vermicompost on olive (Olea europaea L. cv. Zard) morpho-physiological traits and drought tolerance was investigated. A factorial experiment was conducted in completely randomized design with two factors, inclu...

This study was conducted to evaluate the effect of salinity on concentration of potassium (K), sodium (Na) and chloride (Cl) ions, in sweet lime budded on five citrus rootstocks, including Bakraii (mandarin x sweet lime), Volcameriana, Sour orange, Sweet lime and Mexican lime in a glasshouse, using a randomized completely design with factorial arrangement and four replications. Rootstocks had...

A greenhouse experiment, as hydroponic, was carried out in order to investigate the response of sunflower genotypes (Hison125, Iroflor and Bliezer) to different levels of salinity (0, 60 and 120 mM of NaCl) and Fe (0, 50 and 100 mM) in nutrient solution. The experiment was arranged as factorial, based on a completely randomized blocks design with four replications. Results showed that plant hei...

Drought stress is one of the most important environmental stresses in reduce of growth and plants production. Determination of resistance mechanisms to environmental stress in plant improvement is very important. In order to , experiment with osmotic potentials of PEG (zero (control), -4, -8 & -12 bar) and alfalfa genotypes was done. The selected alfalfa genotypes namely, Yazdi(tolerant), Niksh...
