To evaluate the effect of water-deficit stress on the yield, antioxidant activity, and physiological traits of four Iranian melon genotypes (“Khatooni,” “Suski-Sabz,” “Zarde-Tabriz,” and “Shiari”), an experiment was conducted. The irrigation levels were: (1) control (100%ETc); (2) deficit irrigation 66% (66%ETc); and (3) deficit irrigation 33% (33%ETc). The results showed that the yield and rel...

Water deficit is one of the most important environment tensions that reduce plant growth. The present experiment was conducted based on split plots based on complete randomized blocks design with three replications during 2019 cropping year at Moghan Agricultural Research Station. Two levels of irrigations as regular irrigation and irrigation cut in the seedling stage (irrigation cut applied du...

drought is transient phenomenon , slow , repetitive and integral part of the climate of each region. drought begins with a substantial reduction in precipitation over the long-term average rainfall and over time, reduced soil moisture and surface and ground water resources will continue to decrease. this phenomenon is the most important in bakhtegan basin because of its importance in strategic ...

Water deficit stress is the main limiting factor of crop growth and yield in arid and semi-arid environments. Hyssop (Hyssopus officinalis L.) is one of the most important medicinal plants that have numerous medical uses. In order to study the effect of drought stress on physiological and morphological traits of Hyssop, an experiment based on randomized completely design was conducted with four...

In order to evaluate the morpho-physiological and biochemical responses of six wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) cultivars to late season water deficit stress, this experiment was carried out in controlled conditions at College of Agriculture of Shiraz University, Shiraz, Iran during 2013-14. The experimental treatments were water deficit (50 and 100% F.C.) and wheat cultivars (Sirvan, Chamran, Shir...
