Bougainvillea (Bougainvilleaspectabilis) is used for planting in the landscape because of their beautiful and colorful flowers. The easiest and cheapest technique to propagate this plant is by cuttings; however the cuttings of this plant are not easily rooted and require the special treatments, including the use of auxin. For this purpose, an experiment was performed in Completely Rand...

to evaluate symbiotic effectiveness and salt tolerance of sinorhizobium meliloti strains, 50 rhizobial strains were isolated from root nodules of medicago sativa cultivated in tehran and zanjan fields. under n-free conditions, the symbiotic effectiveness of different sinorhizobium meliloti strains of bami cultivar were evaluated under greenhouse conditions using 50 sinorhizobium meliloti strain...

A study was undertaken to evaluate the genetic parameters and correlation between root shoot traits in 50 upland rice genotypes of Manipur along with 3 checks for drought tolerance. The highest GCV PCV values were recorded Root fresh weight 42% 41.9% controlled 34% 33.7% stressed conditions. This followed by dry (35.29% & 34.79% 25.2% 23.97%) conditions, respectively. estimates heritability obs...

Phytoremediation is a biological method to improve soils contaminated with heavy metals. The objective of the present research was to study the capability of Vetiver grass and Tall Fescue in refining and reducing pollution of Cd, Cu and Zn from contaminated soils. The research was implemented in greenhouse during two separate tests (Vetiver grass and Tall Fescue) in a completely randomized desi...

Pistacia vera L. is a decidious tree. To investigate the influence of soaking seeds in polyamines (PAs) spermine (Spm), spermidine (Spd) and putrescine (Put) on seed germination and enhancing lateral root development of ‘Ghazvini’ pistachio seedling rootstock, the experiment were carried out in petri dishes and plastic bags. Seeds were soaked in PAs( Spd, Spm, and Put) at three concentrations( ...

Drought stress reduces the yield and production of tomato (Lycopersicum esculentum Mill.). Tomato does not naturally accumulate glycinebetaine (GB) in the cells under natural conditions. Effects of exogenous glycinebetaine on some morpho-physiological characteristics of Lycopersicum esculentum Mill. cv. PS was evaluated at different levels of drought stress. The experiment was conducted in a fa...

shoot tips from actively growing, greenhouse maintained plants of kalanchoe blossfeldiana were cultured in vitro for shoot proliferation and root initiation on murashige and skoog (ms) basal medium supplemented with naa and ba, both in concentrations of 0.00, 0.50, 1.00 and 2.00 mg l-1. results showed that the maximum plantlets height (7.012 cm), node number (4.516), root number (8.860) and roo...

Background: The application of polyamines as a plant growth substance with effect on a wide range of plant growth and development processes include cell division, flowering, senescence delay, membrane stability, absorb active radicals and different stress tolerance and polyamines Function as a anti-senescence and anti-stress agents in the plant and on the other hand the competitiveness of their...
