Experiments were carried out to investigate the physiological (dry weight of root, stem, peg, flowers plant, fruits sets percent, pod yield (kg plot), 100-kernel weight, days to flowering and maturity) and biochemical (endogenous proline level) traits of groundnut cultivar Swat Phalli-96 under drought stress. The result showed that drought stress significantly (p < 0.05) reduced dry weight of r...

In this study, two isolates of genus Microdochium (W2 and B26) was isolated from the roots of healthy barley plants in agricultural fields from Kermanshah province in 2014 and were identified as Microdochium bolleyi based on morphological and molecular characteristics. Dual culture studies revealed that W2 and B26 inhibit 45% and 20% of the radial growth of Ggt in tur...

Tuberose is one of the most important aromatic cut flower among ornamental plants that its growth and quality is influenced by the type and percentage of mineral compounds in the substrate. This study was carried out on the basis of a randomized complete design to explore the impact of feldspar, talc, dolomite and tuff minerals at the rate of 10, 20 and 40% incorporated with garden soil and man...

The present study investigates the effects of Glomus mosseae and Glomus intraradices on the resistance of green basil plants to salinity stress. The findings suggested that there was an interaction of effects between mycorrhiza fungi inoculation and salt stress on the physiological characteristics of Ocimum basilicum L. On one hand, salinity decreased percentage of root colonization, root lengt...

the use of recent technologies for the increase of growth indexes and the plants yields is an important aspects and till now many research works for this has been done. one of these efforts is the usage of magnetic water and zeolite for the increase of yield plants. this research work is an study on the effects of magnetic water and zeolite that has been done on frame work of pore random design...

Plant growth regulators, especially those applied directly to the root system, are thought to significantly reduce growth of the root systems. Various perennials were treated with uniconazole (Concise, Fine Americas, Inc.) to evaluate effects on plant height as well as shoot and root dry weights. Plant height of Lobelia cardinalis was not affected by a 1 ppm uniconazole liner dip, but shoot dry...

oil contamination is one of the most common and usual kinds of pollution in aquatic and terrestrial ecosystems. one of the economical and effective methods for decreasing or eliminating oil contamination is using plants and microorganisms. soils contain a wide variety of oil decomposing microorganisms, of which pseudomonad, rhodocoous and nocardia are the most important. to evaluate the effect ...
