In this research, effect of drought stress on leaf characteristics was investigated in the experimental field of Miandoab Azad University, Iran using four facultative barley cultivars. Two separate experiments were conducted in pot and field conditions. In both experiments a factorial arrangement was used and the treatments were completely randomized in four replications. In each experiment ha...

The structure and leaf development of the shoot apical meristem in embryos and seedlings of Thuja orientalis L.were observed by using SEM,and the area of the shoot apical meristem was studied by an image analyzer.The shoot apex of embryos was of a round tip cone shape with flat sides;it was transformed into an inverted boat shape.In seedlings,the shoot apical meristem was of a convex-rectangula...

abstract tuberose is one of the most important cut flowers in iran and the world. in this experiment, effect of microelements fe, zn, cu and mn on inflorescence length, inflorescence bunch length, number and diameter of floret, diameter of inflorescence bunch and vase life of tuberose flowers were studied. this study was based on four separate completely randomized experimental design with four...

due to limited water resources, applying efficient water use in agriculture is very important. this experiment was carried out in kabootarabad agricultural research station for two years using split plots in a randomized complete block design with four replications. six irrigation treatments based on evaporation from class a pan were applied as the main factor at three cotton growing stages, na...

Conspecific adults have strong negative effect on the survival of nearby early-stage seedlings and thus can promote species coexistence by providing space for the regeneration of heterospecifics. The leaf litter fall from the conspecific adults, and it could mediate this conspecific negative adult effect. However, field evidence for such effect of conspecific leaf litter remains absent. In this...

in order to evaluate the effect of some qualitative traits of sugar beet (beta vulgaris l.) under irrigation water quality and different types of fertilizers, a field experiment arranged as split plot in rcbd design with three replications at research station of shahrekord university in 2013. the main factor include irrigation with urban wastewater at 2-4 leaf stage, 8-12 leaf stage and irrigat...

The different leaf water parameters, Le., totalleaf water potential (\}Jt), leaf osmotic potential at full turgor ('P S100) leaf osmotic potential at zero turgor (\PSO), relative water content at zero turgor (RWCO) and relative dry weight of the leaf (RDW) were studied during four growth stages in five varieties of sweet sorghum under various soil moisture regimes. In all the varieties, severel...

in order to evaluate the effects of drought stress at different phenological stages on growth indices of chickpea (cicer arietinum l.) cultivar jam, an experiment was carried out at the research greenhouse of faculty of agriculture, ferdowsi university of mashhad, using a completely randomized design with four replications. drought stress was applied by preventing irrigation until the soil mois...

salinity is one of the most limitation factors for crop production in agricultural systems due to the toxic effects and preventing water and nutrients absorption, in this research the efficiency of four strains of fluorescent pseudomonads on concentration of nutrient elements in rice was determined, under saline conditions. a pot experiment was carried out based on the factorial completely rand...

The Spo0B-associated GTP-binding (Obg) proteins are essential for the viability of nearly all bacteria. However, the detailed roles of Obg proteins in higher plants have not yet been elucidated. In this study, we identified a novel rice (Oryza sativa L.) thermo-sensitive virescent mutant (tsv3) that displayed an albino phenotype at 20° before the three-leaf stage while being a normal green at 3...
