a two-year field experiment was carried out in semi-arid region of southern iran (shiraz), during 2007-2008 and 2009-2010 growing seasons using various mixtures of an early- (cv falat) and a middle-ripening (cv shiraz) winter wheat cultivar to evaluate the beneficial effects of inducing temporal growth heterogeneity on reduction of intra-specific competition during post-anthesis moisture stress...

drought and salinity are two important environmental stresses limiting the crop production. in order to study the influence of drought and salinity stresses on germination characteristics of marshmallow plant seeds, two separate experiments were conducted based on completely randomized design with four replications in controlled conditions. drought stress levels were 0, -2, -4, -6 and -8 bar in...

in order to study the effect of compost and salinity stress on seedling growth and generative traits of wheat (sivand cultivar) a pot experiment was conducted based on complete randomized design arranged in factorial with six replications at the research greenhouse, faculty of agriculture, mashhad branch, islamic azad university, mashhad, iran, during in cropping season 2013-2014. factors were ...

knowledge of traits associated with drought tolerance would be useful for developing breeding materials fortarget environments. to study these traits, 119 spring durum wheat breeding lines (bls) from the international maize and wheat improvement center (cimmyt) were evaluated along with local checks (one modern cultivar and three landraces) in three experiments under terminal and non-terminal d...

germination stage is an important stage of plant growth stage that often is affected by environmental stress including water and salinity stresses including drought and salinity. in order to study germination characteristics of scrophularia striatain water and salinity stress conditions at different temperatures an experiment was conducted. temperatures regimes included 5, 10, 15, 20, 25, 30 an...
