in order to study the effects of drought stress and nitrogen (n) levels on grain yield, yield components and water use efficiency of grain corn (sc.704), a field experiment was conducted in 2009 growing season. the experiment was split-plot based on randomized complete block design arrangement and four replicates. main plots were three irrigation levels included optimum irrigation (i1), moderat...

high temperature, high radiance, low vapor pressure, and lack of precipitation in most months characterize arid ecosystems. under these conditions, tree crops such as pistachio suffer from drought combined with salinity stress. in order to investigation effects of combined salinity and drought stress on function of photosynthetic apparatus, mutica pistachio (pistacia mutica) seedlings were subj...

this research was conducted to study the effects of water deficiency stress, nitrogen application rates, and plant population on water use efficiency and nitrogen of oily sunflower in 2007-2008 agriculture and research center of west-azerbaijan. the study was consisted split-split-plot experiments using randomized complete block design with 3 replications. the factor main was consisted irrigati...

background and objectives: the region of the experiment is located in golestan province, iran, with agriculture subject to various farming conditions (rain-fed and irrigation) and different levels of salinity (more than 38% of golestan’s total land area is salt-affected). the purpose of this study has been to evaluate the stress indices in the selection of tolerant wheat genotypes, not only for...

this study was conducted to analyze the effect of zeolite application on yield and yield components of rapeseed under drought conditions as a factorial-split on the based of randomized complete block design with four replications in 2011-12 in the research field of seed and plant improvement institute, karaj. the effects of zeolite levels z0 (0) and z10 (10 t/ha) under three drought stress leve...
