Shoot tips from actively growing, greenhouse maintained plants of Kalanchoe blossfeldiana were cultured in vitro for shoot proliferation and root initiation on Murashige and Skoog (MS) basal medium supplemented with NAA and BA, both in concentrations of 0.00, 0.50, 1.00 and 2.00 mg l-1. Results showed that the maximum plantlets height (7.012 cm), node number (4.516), root number (8.860) and roo...

in order to investigate the effect of concentration, time and consumption instruction of seaweed on some morphological characteristics of root and shoots of safflower, the present experiment in factorial form in a completely randomized design with three replications in research greenhouse of agriculture faculty, ferdowsi university of mashhad was conducted in 2014-15. factors examined included ...

The genetic control of propagation effects and the impact of stock-plant age and source was examined in 9 month-old Pinus radiata cuttings. The cuttings investigated were propagated from stock-plants aged between 2 and 5 years, and microcuttings propagated from 12 week old stock-plants. The design included 20 families, with seven clones per family and an average of seven ramets per clone. Five ...

abstract this research was conducted to evaluate the effect of gibberellic acid (ga3) (0.250, 500 and750 mg l-1) on vegetative growth of olive sapling (olea europaea l) in 2004-05 at shahid chamran university of ahvaz. the experiment was a completely randomize design with 4 replications. parameters measured were: shoot height, inter-node length, leaf and root area, fresh and dry weight of shoot...

Soil and water salinity substantially constrain crop and biomass production. To investigate the changes in morphological parameters of lisianthus (Eustoma grandiflorum) cultivars under CaCl2 salinity conditions a greenhouse experiment was conducted. Cultivars namely, ‘Champagne’ (C1), ‘Lime Green’ (C2), ‘Blue Picotee’ (C3) and ‘Pure White’ (C4), were subjected to salt stress (0–30 mM CaCl2) in ...

Parameters that show a significant genotypic variation at early growth stages and are associated with salt tolerance at later stages may be used as rapid and economic screening criteria in breeding programs. The objective of this study was to test growth parameters at early growth stages for evaluating the salt tolerance of wheat genotypes. Ten wheat genotypes that differ from their salt tolera...
