water deficit stress is the most important environmental constraint for growth, yield and productivity of crops, including the oil seed crops. this study was aimed at studying the influence of differing irrigation régimes on growth, chlorophyll , proline and some antioxidants content along with grain yield, yield components and oil content of sesame genotypes using a 4-replicate split plot rand...

Background: water shortage is one of the major factor effects on growth characters and yield most crops. Objective: this study was conducted to get know reactions some Egyptian cotton genotypes deficit. Methods: The genetic materials used in included thirteen belonging Gossypium barbadense L., from Cotton Research Institute (CRI), which devoted establishing experimental for investigation. Resul...

to investigate the relationship between different traits, discover factors affecting this relationship and to identify components of seed yield in cultivated and wild safflower genotypes, this investigation was conducted at isfahan university of technology research farm under two different water regimes during 2008. significant differences were observed between genotypes belonged to the two spe...

This experiment was conducted to determine the effect of foliar spray with polyamines on postharvest life of chrysanthemum cut flowers in the horticulture laboratory of Islamic Azad University of Rafsanjan in 2015. For this purpose, an experiment was conducted based on a completely randomized design with three replications with spermidine, spermine and putrescine treatments at 1, 2 and 3 mM con...

Sustainable water use is one of the greatest challenges of irrigated agricultural systems. This study presents the results related to the agronomic and physiological response to the deficit irrigation of almond trees (Prunus dulcis DA Webb Mill cv. Guara) under semiarid Mediterranean conditions in the Guadalquivir river basin (SW Spain). Two deficitirrigation strategies were tested: i) regulate...

drought tolerances of 55 indigenous strains of pseudomonas fluorescens were evaluated. to assess the tolerance rate of the strains to various levels of water deficit, their growth rate in nb medium containing concentrations of 40.587, 438.838 and 548.838 g of polyethylene glycol 6000 per liter of medium were utilized. water potentials of aforesaid levels were estimated as 0, - 10, - 20 and -30 ...

a greenhouse experiment was performed in the framework of a completely randomized design and a factorial arrangement to evaluate the effect of arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (amf) on growth and on root antioxidant enzyme changes of two citrus rootstocks (sour orange and rough lemon). the experimental factors were: mycorrhizal treatments at two levels (inoculation with glomus mosseae vs. control) ...

Nitric oxide (NO) production and amino acid metabolism modulation, in particular abscisic acid (ABA)-dependent proline accumulation, are stimulated in planta by most abiotic stresses. However, the relationship between NO production and proline accumulation under abiotic stress is still poorly understood, especially in the early phases of plant development. To unravel this question, this work in...
