In order to study the effects of salt stress on yield and yield components, 21 rice genotypes, in a factorial experiment were conducted based on Randomized Complete Block Design with 3 replicates on pots in greenhouse at Sari Agricultural Science and Natural Resources, during 2009. Salt stress was applied on reproductive stage in rice at 3 levels 0, 6 and 10 ds m-1 NaCl. Results showed that t...

Modeling plant response to salinity and nitrogen deficiency is very important for estimating optimum yield in arid and semi-arid regions. For this purpose, the models of Leibig-Sprengel (LS) and Mitscherlich-Baule (MB) originally proposed to explain plant response to nutrients only were modified to evaluate plant yield response to combined nitrogen and salinity stress conditions. Afterwards, in...

In order to investigate the effects of irrigation water salinity on root traits and absorption of sodium (Na+) and potassium (K+) by wheat cultivars, a factorial experiment, based on completely randomized design with 3 replications, was ‎conducted under greenhouse conditions. The main factor was 7 wheat genotypes ]Ghods, Marvdasht and Bahar (sensitive to salinity) and Arg, Bam, Sistani and Sing...

Soil salinity is an increasing environmental stress on crops in most areas of Iran since farmers use underground saline water for irrigation. In order to investigate the effects of salt stress on germination and seedling growth of safflower (Carthamus tinctorius L.), an experiment was conducted at two stages (germination seedling growth), using four levels of NaCl salinity (0, 5, 10, 15 ds/m), ...

objective: the objective of this study was to investigate the invitro fluoride release of four new self-adhesive resin cements; set (sdi, australia), breeze (pentron, usa), embrace wetbond (pulpdent, usa), g-cem (gc, japan) and to assess the bonding performance of these self-adhesive resin cements for bonding of orthodontic brackets. materials and methods: for fluoride release experiment, six ...

This experiment was conducted with two genotypes of lentil (MLC321 and MLC323), two levels of calcium (0 and 5 mM Ca2+ as CaSO4) and five salinity levels (0, 4, 8, 12 and 16 dS/m) as a factorial experiment, based on completely randomized design with three replications. Seeds were sown in plastic pots and sampling of seedlings was done after 6 weeks. Results showed that in both genotypes, plant ...
