in order to study the effect of salinity stress and nitrogen forms on nitrogen remobilization from root to shoot following defoliation and shoot dry matter production, a research in the form of factorial experiment based on randomized block, was designed in three replications. treatments include: 1) nitrogen forms containing a) biological n fixation (n1), b) 6mm nh4no3(n2), c) biological n fixa...

in order to evaluate the effects of drought and salinity stresses on growth parameters and essential oil of lemon balm, two experiments with three replications in a randomized complete block design were applied. five levels of salinity including zero, one, two, three and four ds/m of sodium chloride solution, and five drought stress treatments including 50, 62.5, 75, 87.5 and 100% as available ...

this study investigates the effects of garlic extract on salinity and ph stress resistance of white leg shrimp post larvae (0.1±0.01 g). the experiment was carried out on the basis of completely random model with 5 dietary treatments which include 0 (control treatment), 1cc (treatment 1), 2cc (treatment 2), 4cc (treatment 3) and 8cc (treatment 4) per 100g food in triplicate. 1500 shrimps were r...

Climate change is predicted to increase sea level and cause saline intrusion of coastal freshwaters. This will have consequences for freshwater organisms inhabiting such areas; developmental phenotypic plasticity may facilitate the persistence of freshwater species under such scenarios of increased salinity. Here we investigated developmental plasticity under different salinity treatments (S = ...

in this study, salinity tolerance of 51 kabuli chickpea genotypes was investigated at vegetative growth phase using 4.5 and 6.5 ds/m salt solution (by adding nacl to 1/2 hoagland solution) and 1/2 hoagland solution (ec= 1.7 ds/m) as control treatment. a split plot design was used in this experiment where the main plot was salinity treatments and the sub plot was genotypes. treatments continued ...

introduction: production and growth of plants in many parts of the world due to degradation and water scarcity have been limited and particularly, in recent decades, agriculture is faced with stress. in the most parts of iran, especially in the khorasan razavi province, drought is a fact and water is very important. due to melon cultivation in this province, and the conditions of quality and qu...

Salinity is an important constraining factor in the way of crop production around the world. Plant nutrition management could alleviate the harmful effects of salinity. In order to evaluate the interaction effects of Zinc availability and different levels of salinity, an experiment was conducted using four levels of zinc(0, 10, 20 and 40 mg/kg) and three levels of NaCl salinity of irrigation wa...

Drought and salinity are two major abiotic stresses, similarly and/or differently affecting physiological processes of wheat. The aim of this study was to evaluate and compare the impacts of drought and salinity on wheat. A pot experiment was conducted as completely randomized design with three replications in the research greenhouse of Yasouj University in 2015. Treatments included different l...
