The present work aimed at investigating changes in growth and some metabolic activities in NaCl-stressed bean plants, and assessing the role of ascorbic acid to alleviate these changes. The field experiment was carried out to study the response of presoaked fava bean seeds (Vicia fava cv. Misr 2) in freshly prepared ascorbic acid (50 ppm ≈ 0.3 mM; as recommended dose as described by  El-Tayeb, ...

In order to study the effects of different salinity levels on turnip (Brassica rapa L.), an investigation was conducted at Yasouj University, Iran, in 2010. The effects of four salinity levels including 1.92, 9.87, 19.6 and 21.94 ds m-1 (20:1 ratio of NaCl: CaCl2 in Hoagland solution) on germination, vegetative and maturity stages of turnip (Baherghan landrace) were investigated. The results re...

in order to study the sensitivity of vegetative growth to water deficit stress of a late-maturing peach (prunus persica l. cv. elberta) under orchard conditions, an experiment was conducted as randomized complete-block design with three treatments and four repetitions in shahdiran commercial orchard in mashhad during 2011. three irrigation treatments including 360 (low stress), 180 (moderate st...

In order to investigate drought stress and plant density the yield, yield components and protein of spotted bean grain (cultivar Talash), an experiment was carried out as split plots in randomized complete blocks with three replications in Yasouj, in 2012. Factors of the test including irrigation in three levels; without stress (control treatment), water stress in vegetative stage (interrupting...
