drought and salinity stress are adverse environmental factors that affect crop growth and yield. abiotic stress cause some reaction in plants such as change in gene expression, cell metabolism, growth and yield. moreover, stress condition resulted in increase of reactive oxygen species and disturbe macromolecules such as proteins, fatty acids, nucleic acid and pigments. in order to evaluate sal...

Salinity of soil is a major abiotic stress limiting the crop production and growth of peppermint. The aim of study was assessment the plant growth regulators efficacy (salicylic acid (SA), jasmonic acid (JA), brassinosteroids (BRs), and non-application of hormone as control) on physiological traits of peppermint under salinity stress (0, 30, and 60 mM). The experiment was conducted using the co...

jasmonate is new plant growth regulator that plays an essential role at increasing plants resistance to the environmental stresses like salinity stress. hence, in this research the effect of foliar application of methyl jasmonate on some physiological indices and yield of german chamomile under salinity conditions was studied. a factorial experiment was laid out based on randomized complete blo...

this study was carried out in the general commission for scientific agricultural research (gcsar) at der ez zour agricultural research center, during 2009- 2010 growing seasons. the role of na+, k+, na+/k+, carbohydrates accumulation of leaves, and sugar content of roots on the osmotic adjustment was studied in 10 sugar beet genotypes (five were monogerms and five were multigerms), under salini...

to assess moisture stress tolerance at the reproductive growth stage in 11 promising genotypes of spring rapeseed (brassica napus l.), two field experiments were conducted in two growing seasons (2008-2010) at the agricultural research center of safiabad, dezful, iran. genotypes were sown under two non-stress (well-irrigated) and moisture stress (irrigation ceased at flowering) conditions using...

Low zinc (Zn) availability and its absorption limit wheat production and quality of yield in calcareous soils. In order to identify Zn deficient stress tolerance in wheat, fifteen spring genotypes (Diyarbakir-81; Gediz-75; Svevo; Zenit; Amanos-97; Fuatbey-2000; Balcali-2000; Ceylan-95; Firat-93; Aydin-93; Ozbek; Artuklu; Akcakale-2000; Aday-19; and Ege-88) were evaluated under two conditions (n...

development of new cultivars with high grain yield (gy) stability and good adaptability under both terminal drought stress (tds) and normal irrigation conditions, which plays important role in production of wheat, is one of the major goals of wheat breeding program for cold dry areas of iran. the objective of this investigation was to study the stability and adaptability of gy and genotype × lo...
