salinity is one of the most important limiting factors for crops, because of most agronomic and horticultural crops are sensitive to salinity. on the other hands, considerable lands of the world were affected by salinity and they are increasing day by day. an experiment was conducted with five levels of irrigation water salinity in soilless culture and greenhouse condition to evaluate the effec...

the impacts of salicylic acid and silicon on some physiological parameters of maize seedlings in the presence ofcadmium (100 μm) were investigated. inhibitory effects of cadmium on seedling growth resulted in reduced shoot and root fresh weight, low percentage of relative water content, low chlorophyll, free proline and soluble sugars contents and a low rate of lipid peroxidation. results indic...

Soil salinity is an increasingly serious problem worldwide that reduces agricultural output potential. Selected beneficial soil bacteria can promote plant growth and augment tolerance to biotic and abiotic stresses. Bacillus subtilis strain GB03 has been shown to confer growth promotion and abiotic stress tolerance in the model plant Arabidopsis thaliana. Here we examined the effect of this ben...

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...

The Effect of Magnetization Saline Water on Shoot Biomass, Chlorophyll Content, Total Phenol and Antioxidant Activity in Meadow Sage (Salvia virgata Jacq.)

the production of oxygen radicals in plants under salinity stress conditions in an the important factor for a diminishing of a photosynthesis and a cause fir a decrease in later vegetative growth. in order to study the effects of antioxidants and salinity stress on photosynthetic characteristics and growth in olive, an experiment was conducted in the research greenhouse of tabriz university in ...

Hydroponic experiment was conducted to investigate the sole and combined effects of cadmium and salinity on growth and photosynthesis of Brassica napus (cultivar Abasin) and Brassica juncea (cultivar NIFA-Raya). Cadmium (as CdCl2; 3 and 6 μmol L) and NaCl (100 and 200 mM) were added either alone or in combination in Hoagland solution along with non-treated controls. Cd and NaCl treatments impos...
