in this regard, the morphophysiologic and anatomic characteristics of six olive cultivars (nabali, feshomi, arbequin, zard, gordal and roghani) were investigated under drought. experiments were designed based on factorial and complete block random plot with two control treatments, -1.5 mpa stress and three replicates. the investigated factors were as follows: leaf area, specific leaf area, leaf...

in order to evaluate the effects of drought stress and planting method on some physiological and biochemical characteristics of two chickpea cultivars (cicer arietinum l.) an experiment was conducted at the research station of college of agriculture, shiraz university using a split factorial based on randomized complete block design in four replications. the main factor was stopping irrigation ...

application of biofertilizers is a crucial technique for reducing catastrophic effects of irregular utilization of chemical fertilizers. this experiment was carried out to evaluate the effects of rhizobium strains and plant growth promoting rhizobacteria (pgpr) on dry matter partitioning and some growth parameters of chickpea (cicer arientinum l.), arman cultivar. this research was conducted as...

Gas exchange and water relations were investigated in Nothofagus solandri var. cliffortioides (Hook. f.) Poole (mountain beech) and Nothofagus menziesii (Hook. f.) Oerst (silver beech) seedlings in response to water stress and waterlogging. At soil matric potentials (Psi(soil)) above -0.005 MPa, N. solandri had significantly higher photosynthetic rates (A), and stomatal and residual conductance...

Water stress reduces endogenous cytokinin (CK) content and may inhibit CK production. Maintenance of endogenous CK levels by genetic transformation with ipt in leaves and roots undergoing senescence may promote stress tolerance. This study was designed to determine the physiological effects of ipt expression on immature and mature leaves and in roots for plants exposed to different levels of wa...

Sunflower (Helianthus annuus) was grown in both open-field and outdoor potted conditions in Southern Italy, and irrigated with water having electrical conductivity ranging between 0.9 and 15.6 dS m(-1) obtained by different NaCl concentrations. The aim of the work was to study the leaf area and photosynthetic responses of sunflower to mild salt stress. The response curve (A/c(i)) of assimilatio...

in order to investigate the responses of sardari wheat ecotypes to drought stress, 12 spikes of sardari wheat were selected from different regions of kurdistan province and planted as head to row. in the second year, a split- plot factorial field experiment was conducted. in this experiment water stress and irrigation were considered as the levels of main factor and 12 sardari wheat ecotypes al...
