drought and salinity are the most important environmental stresses that are causing adverse effects on natural ecosystems. there are species among iranian natural germplasm that are resistant to environmental harsh conditions. restoring of degraded ecosystems, promoting of biodiversity and increasing of species richness will provide by identifying of these species. almond species with broad eco...

Salinity tolerance of four grape genotypes [GharaUzum, Hosseini, AghUzum and Keshmeshi] was studied under various salinity levels (25, 50 and 100 mM NaCl). As a result, growth indices were significantly (P<0.05) reduced by salinity, whereas Cl- and Na+ contents in the plant parts were increased. Cl- accumulation exceeded than that of Na+ in all treatments. Among the genotypes studied, GharaUzum...

to evaluate the effects of various concentration of carbon dioxide and salinity stress on morphophysiological characteristics of amaranthus tricolor l. an experiment was conducted in greenhouse conditions in faculity of agriculture ferdowsi university of mashhad. the experiment was split plot based on completely randomized design with three levels of co2 (380, 700, 1050 µl/l) and three concentr...

laboratory and greenhouse experiments were conducted to determine the effects of drought and salinity stress, temperature, ph and soil depth on rye germination and emergence in gorgan university of agricultural science and natural resources. optimum temperature for germination between 25 to 34.51   oc and base and ceiling temperatures were estimated as 3.3 and 40   oc, respectively. this volunt...

Soil salinity is generally spatially heterogeneous, but our understanding of halophyte physiology under such conditions is limited. The growth and physiology of the dicotyledonous halophyte Atriplex nummularia was evaluated in split-root experiments to test whether growth is determined by: (i) the lowest; (ii) the highest; or (iii) the mean salinity of the root zone. In two experiments, plants ...

jasmonate is new plant growth regulator that plays an essential role at increasing plants resistance to the environmental stresses like salinity stress. hence, in this research the effect of foliar application of methyl jasmonate on some physiological indices and yield of german chamomile under salinity conditions was studied. a factorial experiment was laid out based on randomized complete blo...

this study was designed to investigate the effect of p. fluorescens fy32 inoculation on the activities of some antioxidant enzymes and ion concentration of two canola cultivars (sarigol and hyola308) under salinity stress (150 and 300 mm nacl) in the greenhouse condition (fall 2012, dept. of plant breeding and biotechnology, faculty of agriculture, university of tabriz). the experimental design...

Strawberry is considered as a salinity sensitive species and is adversely affected in response to the salt stress in terms of growth and yield. Pot experiments were conducted to determine the effect of exogenous salicylic acid (SA) application on physiology, growth, chlorophyll and mineral content of strawberry grown under salt stress and greenhouse conditions. Strawberry plants were treated wi...
