glycine betaine (gb) is one of the osmotic plant-protecting members that accumulate in response to abiotic stresses. an experiment was, therefore, conducted to test whether gb application at various concentrations (0, 10, 20 and 30 mm) through seed soaking or foliar spray methods would protect cucumber seedlings, subjected to chilling stress. at two true leave stages, after gb treatment, the se...

Two laboratory and greenhouse experiments were carried out to compare and evaluate the nutrition of Phaseolus vulgaris L. plant with foliar spray and root media. In laboratory, effect of four treatments; N- nutrition solution; Urban solid waste leachate (USWL); vermi-compost extract and control (distilled water) on germination and seeding growth of Phaseolus vulgaris L. was examined for 10 days...

in this study, the effect of foliar spray with calcium chloride (0, 0.75, 1.5 and 3 g l-1) during 2, 4 and 6 weeks before commercial harvesting time of apple fruit cv. ‘gala’ and ‘delbarestival’ which trained in three different systems (v shape, hightech and cordon) was investigated. the results showed that types of training systems and foliar application of calcium can affect on fruits quality...

The effects of 0 M, 10 M and 10 M salicylic acid (SA) applied by three different modes (seed treatment, seed treatment plus foliar spray and foliar spray) in four pea (Pisum sativum L.) varieties viz., Meteor, Climax, Greenfeast and Rondo were evaluated. Among the varieties the highest green pod yield of 5255 Kg ha was obtained in variety Meteor followed by variety Greenfeast (4452 Kg ha). The ...

To investigate the effects of silicon on the growth characteristics and the reduction of the powdery mildew damage to Zinnia (Zinnia elegans Jacq. ʻMagellanʼ), an experiment was carried out as a factorial experiment in the form of a randomized complete block design with two factors including eight treatments and three replications. The first factor included silicon concentrations at four levels...

in order to study the effect of ca, k, and mn foliar spray on vegetative traits of safflower (padideh cultivar) under salt stress, a factorial experiment was conducted based on randomized complete blocks design with three replications in vali-asr university greenhouse. factors included salinity with four levels representing 0, 500, 1000, and 1500 mg nacl kg -1, and foliar spray with four level ...

the current study was conducted in order to evaluate the effect of mono and di-potassium phosphate combination (mdkp) on some quantitative and qualitative characteristics of iranian pomegranate (cv. malas-e-saveh) in pomegranate research center of saveh city, in 2012. to adjust the ph of the solution, the mono potassium phosphate and di-potassium phosphate combined with each other in the ratio ...

effects of drought stress and chemical treatments was studied on growth and developmental traits of four barley cultivars using a split- split plot design (rcbd) in agricultural research farm, kerman university in 2013-14. main plots consisted of irrigation (control and drought stress after flowering), sub-plots consisted of four barley cultivars (ʻnosratʼ, ʻafsalʼ, ʻyousofʼ and ʻuh12 lineʼ) an...
