Exposure of wheat (Triticum durum L.) to NaCl (100 and 200 mM) showed that this variety is moderately halo tolerant. Germination rates in the absence and presence of salt (100 and 200 mM) are respectively 98.3, 83.3 and 53.3%. The supply of Salsola vermiculata and the combination between this halophyte and Streptomyces sp. SF5 affected germination significantly. Germination rates in the absence...

In order to evaluate the effects of seed priming with salicylic acid (SA) (0, 2, 10, and 20 mM) to increase salt tolerance (0, 50, 100, 150, and 200 mM NaCl) in medicinal plant Dracocephalum moldavica at seed germination, an experiment was conducted as factorial in a completely randomized design with four replicates. The assessed parameters included germination percentage and rate, len...

Progr. p. 7-11. Summary: Ten diverse accessions of perennial ryegrass (Lolium perenne L.) were grown in sand culture and exposed to a half-Hoagland solution amended with 0 (control), 50-, 100-, 150-, 200...

Elaeagnus angustifolia is one of the most extensively afforested tree species in environment-harsh regions of northern China. Despite its exceptional tolerance to saline soil, the intrinsic adaptive physiology has not been revealed. In this study, we investigated the growth, organ-level ionic relations and organic osmoregulation of the seedlings hydroponically treated with 0, 100 and 200 mM NaC...

Salinity stress affected crop production of more than 20% of irrigated land globally. In the present study the effect of different concentrations of NaCl (0, 100, and 200 mM) on growth, physio-biochemical attributes, antioxidant enzymes, oil content, etc. in Brassica juncea and the protective role of Trichoderma harzianum (TH) was investigated. Salinity stress deteriorates growth, physio-bioche...

a pot experiment was carried out to determine the effect of foliage spraying of silicon (si) on growth and ornamental characteristics of calendula grown under salt stress and greenhouse conditions. a factorial experiment based on completely randomized design was conducted with 3 levels of si (0, 50 and 100 mg/l) and 3 levels of nacl (0, 100 and 200 mm) with 4 replications. at flowering stage, s...

the new cereal, primary tritipyrum lines, is an artificial hexaploeid wheat (2n=6x=42, aabbebeb) from crossing between triticum durum (2n=4x=28, aabb) and thinopyrum bessarabicum (2n=2x=14, ebeb) species. in this study the salt tolerant potencial of new primary tritipyrum lines for nacl (0, 100, 200 mm) in an hydroponic experiment was studied in a completely randomized split plot design with th...

one of the important issues in the arid and semi-arid regions is the water deficit and soil salinity. therefore, selecting tolerant species to salinity and drought especially in seed germination and emergence stage is important. in the present study the effects of drought and salt stress on seed germination of vetch (vicia villosa l.) which is palatable forage was investigated. the germination ...
