The present study investigates the effects of Glomus mosseae and Glomus intraradices on the resistance of green basil plants to salinity stress. The findings suggested that there was an interaction of effects between mycorrhiza fungi inoculation and salt stress on the physiological characteristics of Ocimum basilicum L. On one hand, salinity decreased percentage of root colonization, root lengt...

Mean values of different body dimensions in different age cohorts of children make it possible to learn a lot about their dynamic changes. Their comparative analysis, as is usually practiced, in fact leads to a simple description of changes in measurement units (mm or cm) at the average level of some body dimension during a shorter or longer period of time. To estimate comparative intensity of ...

Among deciduous fruit crops, maximum sustained yields under ideal conditions reportedly range from 22 MT/ha in sweet cherry to 112 MT/ha in apple: about a 5-fold difference. Root length densities under fruit trees, however, range from about 0.2 km/m in apple to about 12 km/m in kiwifruit: a 60-fold difference. What causes these differences among the root systems of different fruit crops? Patter...

A field experiment was carried out to investigate the effects of varying nitrogen (N) supply andirrigation methods on the root growth and distribution of maize (Zea mays L.) in Wuwei,northwest China in 2011 and 2012. The irrigation treatments included alternate furrow irrigation(AI), fixed furrow irrigation (FI) and conventional furrow irrigation (CI). The N supply treatmentsincluded alternate ...

abstract several root measuring methods have been developed until now but there is no single method of root measurement applicable for all situations. this study was conducted to evaluate the effects of a single trinexapac-ethyl (te) and paclobutrazol application on kentucky bluegrass root growth under three irrigation treatments. evaluating of root length density (rld), root surface area (rs) ...

In a runoff irrigation system using levelled basins, the water uptake patterns of different plant species (Acacia saligna (Labill.) H. L. Wend. and Sorghum bicolor (L.) Moench.) with contrasting root and shoot development were compared. Rainfall amounts during 1995 led to enough runoff water for realizing two cropping cycles. The amount of irrigation water was sufficient to fill the moisture-de...

BACKGROUND Cleaning and shaping of root canal system requires various irrigating solutions. The question is whether the presence of irrigation solution alters working length determination using apex locators. The purpose of this study was to compare the accuracy of Root ZX and i-Root apex locator for determining working length in the presence of different irrigating solution. MATERIALS AND ME...
