With recent climate changes, Scots pine (Pinus sylvestris L.) forests have been affected by die-off events. Assisted migration of adapted provenances mitigates drought impacts and promotes forest regeneration. Although suitable provenances are difficult to identify by traditional ecophysiological techniques, which are time consuming and invasive, plant water status can be easily assessed by inf...

in order to evaluation the effect of drought stress on germination indices and early seedling growth of medicinal herb dill (anethum graveolens l), an experiment was conducted in the agricultural laboratory of urmia payam noor university in 2015 as a randomized complete block design with four replications. treatments were five levels of drought stress (0, -1, -2, -3 and -4 bar induced by polyet...

in order to increase drought tolerance in bread wheat, an appropriate breeding program based on inheritance of drought tolerance is recommended. in the present study, nine bread wheat cultivars and their f2 progenies were evaluated in a randomized complete block design under normal and drought stress conditions. nine sensitivity/tolerance indices were calculated for studied genotypes and stress...

Drought is an important factor limiting crop production in arid and semi-arid conditions. Drought indices which provide a measure of drought based on yield loss under drought condition in comparison to normal condition was used for screening drought-tolerant genotypes. This study was conducted to determine drought tolerant genotypes with high yield in stress and non-stress conditions. Ten barle...

this study was conducted over a three-year period (1998, 1999 and 2000) to evaluate some drought tolerance indices and their relations with sugar yield in some sugar beet genotypes under early season drought and non-drought conditions. the experimental design was a split plot with a randomized complete block. the main plots consisted of two irrigation regimes: non-stress and water stress in ear...

drought is the most significant constraint for crop production in arid and semi-arid regions. in order to assess drought tolerance in fifteen rapeseed (brassica napus) cultivars using yield-based drought tolerance indices, two experiments were conducted at the research station of college of agriculture, shiraz university, shiraz, iran during 2009-2010 growing season. the cultivars were arranged...

To study drought stress on seedling dry weight, proline contents and evaluate of antioxidant enzymes activity in canola genotypes (Brassica napus l.), an experiment were evaluated at laboratory physiology, Shahed University. This experiment was carried out in factorial with CRD design with 4 replications in 2008. The first factor was including levels of dough stress, one without stress as check...
