water and soil salinity in some regions of isfahan, east azerbaijan, and west azerbaijan provinces and also other parts of the iran are the main hindrance for crop planting. seeds of the tolerant crops to salinity such as cotton and sugar beet may have optimal germination and give acceptable performance if they become far from salt accumulation areas. to evaluate the effects of different planti...

crops growing in salt-affected soils may suffer from physiological drought stress, ion toxicity, and mineral deficiency. a pot study was conducted in 2004-2005 in the aghala area (northern iran) to study the effect of different salinity levels, i.e. ece= 3 (control), 8, 12 and 16 ds m-1 on wheat grain, yield components and leaf ion uptake of four iranian wheat genotypes, i.e. kouhdasht, atrak, ...

abstract plant- growth promoting rhizobacteria enhance plant growth and yield directly and or indirectly. a factorial experiment was conducted in greenhouse to determine the efficacy of four strains of fluorescent pseudomonas on wheat yield and yield component under saline conditions. the experiment was carried out with the following treatments (non –inoculation control and inoculation with p.f...

background & aim: milk thistle [silybum marianum (l.) gaertn] is an annual or biennial plant, native to the mediterranean area, which has spread in north and south of iran. a fruit of milk thistle contains a relatively high amount (approx. 20%) of oil, which exhibits wound-healing, anti-burn, and hepatoprotective properties. experimental: in this research, a pot experiment was conducted usi...

a two years (2006–2007 and 2007-2008) experiment was conducted at national salinity research center, yazd, to evaluate salt-tolerant genotypes of brassica napus, b. rapa and b. juncea. to screen genotypes in the first growing season, 58 genotypes were grown under two irrigation water salinity levels of 2 and 12 ds m-1 in an augmented randomized complete block design with six replicated checks. ...
