abstract: salicylic acid is a phytohormone with phenolic nature which has been proved its role in increasing plant resistance to biotic and abiotic stress in several studies. this study was performed in order to investigation of interaction between 0, 0.5 and 1.5 mm concentrations of salicylic acid, as a seed pretreatment and different levels of drought stress (100, 75, 50 and 25 percent of fie...

gavane-gaz-angubin (persian manna) belongs to astragalus genus (leguminosae). this plant is one of the most important species in iran for its medicinal value. considering the low propagation rate of this plant from seed and cutting, the feasibility of in-vitro propagation of this plant was investigated. effect of different types and concentrations of cytokinins such as bap, kin, and ze (0.5, 1,...

drought and salinity are the most important environmental stresses that are causing adverse effects on natural ecosystems. there are species among iranian natural germplasm that are resistant to environmental harsh conditions. restoring of degraded ecosystems, promoting of biodiversity and increasing of species richness will provide by identifying of these species. almond species with broad eco...

background and objectives: the region of the experiment is located in golestan province, iran, with agriculture subject to various farming conditions (rain-fed and irrigation) and different levels of salinity (more than 38% of golestan’s total land area is salt-affected). the purpose of this study has been to evaluate the stress indices in the selection of tolerant wheat genotypes, not only for...

nitrogen forms exert significant effects on physiological and morphological characteristics of plant. in this study, the effects of ammonium, nitrate, and ammonium-nitrate on pepper plants were investigated in soil culture, as well as in solution culture. in the soil culture, 3, 4-dimethylpyrazole phosphate (dmpp) was used as a standard nitrification inhibitor to guarantee the presence of ammon...

beta-2 adrenoceptors in blood vessels are one of the active factors that play a role in regulation of tissue blood flow. in diabetic angiopathy, responsiveness of these receptors is decreased, while that is increased in inflammation. according to these opposite effects, the aim of this study was to investigate the vasodilatory response of knee joint blood vessels to salbutamol (beta-2 adrenocep...

iran is a country in the middle part of the alp-himalayan orogeny system that have huge earthquakes. the risk of the earthquakes is the cause of the researches about the precursors. because earthquakes occur suddenly, often with devastating consequences, earthquake prediction is a matter of great interest among the public and emergency service officials. a few observations suggest that some ear...
