limited water for irrigation and the coincidence of early growth of sugar beet (beta vulgaris l.) with the late growth of winter cereals in the northeast (ne) of iran, force farmers, to allocate their limited irrigation water to the cereal crops and thus their sugar beet crop is subjected to an early water stress. finding cultivars which are able to withstand early water stress without a si...

We compared responses of cuttings and seedlings of Eucalyptus globulus Labill. subsp. globulus to water stress in a 9-week greenhouse experiment. Optimal water availability was achieved by watering pots daily to field capacity, and two water stress treatments were imposed by reducing watering frequency to every 6 or 14 days. Within each treatment, height growth rates of cuttings and seedlings w...

studying the physiological responses of linseed genotypes to water deficit stress may be helpful in recognizing the linseed resistance mechanisms to the latter stress factors. therefore, a split plot rcbd field experiment was conducted with three replications to explain interrelations of leaf chlorophyll, proline and soluble carbohydrates content and grain yield of six linseed genotypes under t...

introduction: the role of different parts of the extended amygdala in metabolic signs of stress is not well understood. in the present study, we decided to evaluate the impact of the shell part of nucleus accumbens (nac) on metabolic disturbance induced by electro foot shock stress using transient inactivation method in the rat.  methods: male wistar rats (w: 230-250 g) were canuulated unilater...

for evaluation of drought tolerance of sugar beet genotypes by assessment of the drought tolerance indices under mild and severe stresses, furrow irrigated field experiments were carried out at zarghan research station in 2002 and 2004, and at motahari research station (located inkaraj) in 2002, 2003, and 2004. the experimental design was split plot, with a randomized complete block arrangement...

Eight cultivars Sorghum bicolor (L.) Moench were grown as callus cultures under induced, prolonged water stress (8 weeks), with polyethylene glycol in the medium. Concentrations of soluble carbohydrates and organic acids in callus were measured at the end of the growth period to determine differences in response to prolonged water stress. Sucrose, glucose, fructose, and malate were the predomin...

introduction lentil (lens culinaris medik.) is a good source of protein, carbohydrates as well as minerals, vitamins and unsaturated fatty acids as such it plays an important role in the human diet and cultivated worldwide. water shortage is one of the most important abiotic factors that can limit morphological, physiological, yield, and plant distribution. legumes such as lentil are highly sen...
