in this study, the effect of irrigation regimes and plant nutrition were evaluated as split plot arrangment based on randomized complete block design with three replications in 2010. treatments consisted of irrigation regimes at three levels: well-irrigation, irrigation disruption at vegetative growth stage, and irrigation disruption at reproductive growth stage as main plots and combination of...

introduction salinity is a major abiotic stress that affects approximately 7% of the world’s total land area. cotton (gossypium barbadense l.) is considered as one of the most important cash crops which is widely used for agricultural and industrial purposes. although, cotton is classified as one of the most salt-tolerant major crops but its growth and development are adversely affected by soil...

in order to investigate the effect of sodium nitroprusside (snp) application on yield and yield components of kidney bean under water deficit stress, a field experiment was conducted in split-factorial based on randomized complete block design with three replications in hamedan, in 2012. water deficit stress at four levels including vegetative stress, reproductive stress vegetative+reproductive...

anise hyssop is a prennial herb belonging to the lamiaceae family. essential oil of this plant is used in food, pharmaceuticals, cosmetics industries as well as flavoring liqueurs. since water stress affects the growth, productivity, as well influences the active principles governing medicinal plants, in this research the effect of different water deficit stresses on such morphological traits a...

Plasticity of the phenotypic architecture of wild barley, Hordeum spontaneum, was studied in response to water and nutrient stress. Direct and indirect selection on several vegetative and reproductive traits was estimated and path analysis used to reveal how regulating pathways via maternal investment differed between environments. Vegetative traits displayed differential regulating effect on f...
