Extended abstract Introduction: Using of plant growth regulators is one of the methods can improve plant growth against environmental stresses such as salinity. Salicylic acid plays an important role in physiological processes regulation, including germination. Today, using of growth promoting bacteria has been increased and it causes to raise the seed vigor, uniformity, germination percentage...

In order to study the effect of seed priming with salicylic acid (SA) and jasmonic acid (JA) on emergence and early growth of pumpkin (Cucurbita pepo L.) seedlings  under drought stress condition, a factorial experiment based on randomized complete block design (RCBD) with four replications was conducted at the greenhouse of Malayer university. Experimental treatments were seed priming with sal...

Melissa officinalis is a medicinal plant belong to  lamiacea family.  This plant has been cultivated in many parts of the world due to its therapeutic effects. This study was conducted to improve antioxidant activities of proliferated shoots from tissue culture. The seeds of plant   were cultured in MS hormone free medium in order to obtain   seedlings. Then the  shoots were transfer to MS medi...

In order to investigate the effect of salicylic acid on photosynthetic pigments, enzyme activity and yield of durum wheat cultivars under drought stress, a greenhouse experiment was conducted as factorial based on complete randomized design with 3 replicates. Treatments included of drought stress in two levels of normal irrigation and drought stress at the beginning of the milking stage, and sa...

Strawberry is highly perishable with huge post-harvest losses. So preserving quality and increasing in storability by using of safe compounds is important. In this case, the effect of salicylic acid and GABA (0, 0.5 and 1 mM) as a factorial experiment in completely randomized design were analyzed on longevity and qualitative and biochemical traits of strawberry during 7 and 14 after cold storag...
