in order to identification of allelopathic compounds and investigation of the effect of aerial part extract of orchard grass on germination and seedling growth of alfalfa an experiment conducted as completely randomized design with four replications at university of mohaghegh ardabili, iran. treatments were concentrations of orchard grass extracts including 0, 25, 50, 75, and 100%. radicle and ...

Beta vulgaris belongs to the family Amaranthaceae and was found to have halophytic ancestors. The objective of this study was to investigate the effect of sodium chloride on seed germination, therefore the early stages of seedling growth of Beta vulgaris grown under different salinity levels (0, 100, 150 and 200 mM of NaCl) were studied. The experiment was laid out in a completely randomized de...

Vigour was measured using computer-aided analysis of digital images in six seed lots of Impatiens that differed in vigour but retained greater than 86% standard germination. Seed lots that differed in initial seed vigour were selected based on the commercially used Ball Vigour Index and vigour independently assessed using saturated salts accelerated aging tests. Digital images were captured fro...

The aqueous extract from Carya cathayensis Sarg. exocarp was centrifuged, filtered, and separated into 11 elution fractions by X-5 macroporous resin chromatography. A phenolic compound, 4,8-dihydroxy-1-tetralone (4,8-DHT) was isolated from the fractions with the strongest phytotoxicity by bioassy-guided fractionation, and investigated for phytotoxicity on lettuce (Latuca sativa L.), radish (Rap...

Background: Salinity stress is one of the most severe problems in agriculture. Seed priming a technique that improves seed germination and growth under abiotic stress. The study was conducted to evaluate effects different agents on seedling Isabgol (Plantago ovata Forsk) Variety GI-3 salinity Methods: experiment with completely randomized design. factors examined include four types priming, con...

germination stage is an important stage of plant growth stage that often is affected by environmental stress including water and salinity stresses including drought and salinity. in order to study germination characteristics of scrophularia striatain water and salinity stress conditions at different temperatures an experiment was conducted. temperatures regimes included 5, 10, 15, 20, 25, 30 an...

poor establishment of seedling due to both drought and lack of water is one of the most important problems in arid and semiarid regions such as iran. so, in order to evaluate the effect of lentil seed size on germination and seedling growth properties affected by drought stress, a completely randomized design with factorial arrangement and 3 replications conducted using two lentils genotypes (r...

in order to study the effects of different levels of drought stress and plant growth promoting rhizobacteria on the germination indices of seeds harvested from wheat (tritium aestivum l.) cv. sayonz in the field treated with different levels of nitrogen, in controlled conditions, a factorial layout based on completely randomized design with three replications, was conducted. treatments included...

In recent years, oat plant especially for hay yield is on demand in Turkey. this study, 167 landraces originated from Turkey were evaluated germination and some early seedling stage traits genotyped by 6K SNP Chip assay to detect candidate markers using association mapping analysis. Principal component analysis (PCA) also performed determine relationships among investigated traits.
 The va...
