in order to evaluate the effects of wastewater irrigation on sugar content and morphological traits of sugar beet (beta vulgaris l.), an experiment was conducted in split plot design based on randomized complete block design with three replications at research station in shahrekord university in 2013. the treatments consisted of irrigation with urban wastewater at 2-4 and 8-12 leaf stages, and ...

The influence of different initial inoculum densities of the root-knot nematode Meloidogyne javanica on the growth of sage (Salvia officinalis), root-knot development and nematode multiplication was investigated 90 days after inoculation under greenhouse conditions. With the increase in the nematode initial inoculum densities, shoot fresh/dry weight, shoot/root length and root fresh/dry weight ...

Effects of humic acid on some vegetative characteristics and mineral concentrations of Mexican lime were investigated under different salinity concentrations. Four doses of humic acid (0, 1500, 3000 and 4000 mg/kg soil) and four salinity levels (1500, 2500, 3500 and 4500 µmos) were applied on Mexican lime seedlings. Experiment was conducted as a factorial arrangement based on a completely rando...

This study was conducted to evaluate changes in antioxidants, free proline, relative water content and determination of root colonization of four commercial wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) cultivars (Azar2, Darab2, Shiraz, and Falat) inoculated with the fungus Glomus intraradices, under four water regimes of 100, 75, 50, and 25% of field capacity in the year 2010 at the School of Agriculture, Shir...

The aim of this research was evaluate the seedling behavior of among Pistacia species can be used as rootstock in pistachio. Differences in stem diameter were observed among the species. The thickest stems were developed by P. atlantica (5.67 mm), P. vera cv. ‘Qazvini’ (25.47mm) and ‘Badami-e-Riz-e-Zarand’ (5.13 mm) whereas the thinnest stems were measured in P. atlantica subsp. kurdica (3.48 m...

This work evaluated the effect of drought stress on seedling growth, protein, soluble sugars, and phenolic compounds of two cultivars of canola (RGS003 and Sarigol). Drought stress was induced with polyethylene glycol (PEG) at 0, 5, 10, and 15%. Drought stress increased root fresh weight in both cultivars and the effect of drought was more pronounced in RGS003. Shoot fresh weight reduced in Sar...
