Since there is limited information on the simultaneous effect of drought stress and salicylic acid on yield and mucilagecontent of the medicinal herb, Plantago ovata Forssk is available, a pot experiment was conducted in factorial form basedon a randomized complete block design with three replications in Jiroft, Kerman Province, south of Iran. As the firstfactor, drought stress included four le...

in order to study the effect of bio-fertilizers  in decrease the effects of water stress on yield, yield components and oil percentage of goldasht spring safflower cultivars (carthamus tinctorius l.), an experiment on split plot in a randomized complete block design with three replications was carried out  in 2012 at the agricultural research station of islamic azad university of roudehen branc...

water deficit is a major factor influencing yield of canola (brassica napus l.) seed yield and oil content. a field experiment was conducted during 2010 growing season in the agriculture research station of torogh, mashhad, iran to evaluate responses of canola cultivars to limited water. experimental design was rcbd pattern with three replications. treatments were two irrigation regimes (based ...

Drought induced stress is one of the most significant environmental challenges. This study was designed to evaluate the effects of drought stress on crop yield and antioxidant systems during the vegetative period of wheat. The study was carried out in a greenhouse using factorial experiment based on complete randomized block design (RCBD) in three replications in Razi University in Iran from 20...

Drought is a limiting factor for N(2) fixation in soybean [Glycine max (L.) Merr.] thereby resulting in reduced biomass accumulation and yield. Drought-sensitive genotypes accumulate ureides, a product of N(2) fixation, during drought stress; however, drought-tolerant genotypes have lower shoot ureide concentrations, which appear to alleviate drought stress on N(2) fixation. A key enzyme involv...

in order to investigate the effects of corm tunic, corm weight and drought stress on saffron (crocus sativus l.), an experiment was conducted at the greenhouse of ferdowsi university of mashhad, iran. treatment were combination of four corm weights range (2-4, 4-6, 6-8 and 8-10 g), two levels of water availability (100% field capacity and drought) and two levels of corm tunic (natural corm with...

Pot experiments were conducted during two successive seasons (2011/2012 and 2012/2013) at wire house of the National Research Centre, Giza, Egypt to study the effect of soaking canola seeds with glycinebetaine (GB) (10mM, 15mM and 20mM ) on growth, photosynthetic pigments, osomoprotectants, antioxidant enzymes, seed yield quality and quantity, in fever of antioxidant compounds and fatty acids c...
