in order to study, the effects of drought stress on germination and seedling growth of chickpea genotypes, experiments were carried out on two susceptible genotypes (mcc68, mcc448) and two resistant genotypes (mcc392, mcc877). in the first experiment the seeds were sown under different levels of drought stress (0,-0.4,-0.8,-1.2mpa) in 25◦c at the growth chamber with 4 replication. the results s...

in order to assess drought tolerance of mycorrhizal petunia plants (petunia hybrida cv. mix), a greenhouse experiment was carried out with two different mycorrhizae species (glomus mosseae and glomus intraradices) applied singly or in combination at two phosphorous (p) levels (0 and 100 mg kg-1 dry soil) and three irrigation regimes (100% field capacity (fc) as control, 75% fc producing moderat...

the aims of this study were to assess the effects of drought stress on peroxidase (pod), superoxide dismutase (sod) and catalase (cat) activities as well as free proline content and growth parameters of pistacia khinjuk seedlings under drought stress. therefore, the one-year seedlings of pistacia khinjuk subjected to water stress (25%, 50%, 75%, and 100% field capacity) for 8 months in greenhou...

management of organic and inorganic fertilizer application and residual of them are very important in their effect on environment and plant yield. in order to determine the effect of drought stress and different amendments on flower, essential oil and chamazulene yield and its components of matricaria chamomilla l., this study was conducted as a split plot design with three replications, at agr...

AIMS Accurate assessment of inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) activity is the cornerstone of effective therapy. Fecal M2 isoform of pyruvate kinase (M2-PK) and fecal calprotectin (FC) are noninvasive markers of mucosal inflammation in IBD. The aim of this study was to compare performance of M2-PK and FC in assessment of pediatric ulcerative colitis (UC) and Crohn's disease (CD) severity and acti...

background & aim: osmotic stress in plants lead to increase free radicals and plants use different mechanisms to scavenge these radicals. so, researchers apply stresses especially drought stress to increase secondary metabolites such as phenolics, and antioxidants. one of the valuable medicinal plants is yarrow (achillea tenuifolia) which is a perennial plant with different medicinal applic...

     Drought stress is one of the most important factors affecting plant growth. Plant growth under drought stress may be enhanced by the application of microbial inoculation including plant growth promoting rhizobacteria. This research was conducted as a factorial experiment in a completely randomized design. The first factor included the bio-fertilizer (A. vinelandii (A)), P. agglomerans+ P. ...
