due to the use of secale montanum for different rangelands reclamation across the country, management of these ecosystems need to be aware of its ability to environmental stresses. this research investigated the effect of pollutant element of cu and pb on seed germination and growth of this species in laboratory. therefore, the effect of five treatments (control, 50, 100, 150, 200ppm) of pb (no...

The objective of the this study was to compare concentrations of nanosized TiO2 at 0, 5, 20, 40, 60 and 80 mg L(-1) with bulk TiO2 for phytotoxic and stimulatory effects on fennel seed germination and early growth stage. After 14 d of seed incubation, germination percentage highly improved following exposure to 60 ppm nanosized TiO2. Similar positive effects occurred in terms of shoot dry weigh...

in order to study the interaction of temperature and salinity on seed germination and seedling growth of cucumis melo a factorial experiment was conducted based on crd with four replications. the factors included four temperature levels (25, 30, 35 and 40 °c) and five salinity levels (0, -0.2, -0.4, -0.6 and -0.8 mpa). germination rate and percentage, shoot length, root length, seedling vigor i...

in order to study the effect of intensity and exposure duration magnetic field on wheat (triticum aestivum l.) seed germination an experiment was conducted in laboratory of ferdowsi university of mashhad, iran. the experiment was including 11 treatments as three level of magnetic field intensities (pretreatment of seeds with 50, 100 and 150 mt magnetic field) and three exposure durations (10, 2...

abstract. seeds or plant organs are usually used as the materials for the long-term cryopreservation. the aim of this study is to investigate the possibility of seed cryopreservation of lilium ledebourii (baker) boiss. as an endemic and endangered species because of genetic erosion. to evaluate seed potentials for the cryopreservation, four treatments including vitrification, 30% glycerol, desi...
