Rice is an essential crop in Iran that is grown mostly in areas where depth to groundwater is low. Root growth and water uptake of rice under shallow groundwater has not been thoroughly studied. This experiment was conducted to determine the lowland rice (cv. Ghasrodashti) root distribution above shallow groundwater in relation to deficit irrigation and groundwater depth in cylindrical gre...

introduction: the aim of this study was to evaluate the effects of training duration and case difficulty on the radiographic quality of root canal fillings performed by dental students in saudi arabia. methods and materials: a longitudinal cohort study was conducted at king saud university. root canal treatments performed by 55 dental students from 2012-2014 were included in the study. each stu...

background: the aim of the present study was to investigate the quality of root canal obturation performed by 6th year undergraduate dental students at the dental school, university of mashhad, iran. materials and methods: a random 200 sample records of patients who received endodontic treatment at the dental school, university of mashhad between 2009 and 2010 was investigated. the quality of r...

abstract methods of tillage and organic matter affect root growth and distribution and therefore nutrient uptake by plant and its growth. this study was performed consecutive two years. tillage treatments included disk harrowing + two disk harrowings as reduced tillage (15 cm plowing depth) and moldboard plowing + two disk harrowings as conventional tillage system (30 cm plowing depth). also, t...

Studies on the function of root traits and the genetic variation in these traits are often conducted under controlled conditions using individual potted plants. Little is known about root growth under field conditions and how root traits are affected by agronomic practices in particular sowing density. We hypothesized that with increasing sowing density, root length density (root length per soi...

Subsoil compaction can result in unfavourable soil physical conditions and hinder the root growth of maize. The effects of deep tillage and conventional tillage on soil physical properties and root growth of maize were studied during 2010–2011 at two sites (loam at Hebi and clay at Luohe) in central China. The results showed that soil penetration resistance, bulk density, water content and root...

Two different propagation procedures including aeroponics and soil systems were compared for the minitubers production in potato. The minitubers were evaluated for several quality characters. The plant materials were from three cultivars, Agria, Marfona and Savalan. The plantlets were grown in aeroponics and soil production systems at a plant density of 100 plants per m-2 and stem length, root ...

the study was conducted to evaluate the effect of seed priming on root growth of two barley cultivars (hordeum vulgare l.) under salinity stress was performed in phytogel. the treatments included two cultivars of barely (yusuf and maquie), levels of seed priming (control, hydro-priming and priming with 4.35 g l-1 of urea) and four levels of nacl salinity stress (0, 0.2, 0.3 m). the experiment w...
