in order to study the effects of pgpr application methods on proline and soluble sugars content of yarrow (achillea millefolium l.) under drought stress conditions an experiment was performed at islamic azad university, yadegar-e-imam khomeini (rah) shahre-rey branch. this experiment was carried out in a split plot arrangement with randomized complete block design in three replications. experim...

study the effects of inoculation with two arbuscular mycorrhizal (am) fungi, gm (glomus mosseae t.h. nicolson & gerd.)gerd & trappe) and gi (glomus intraradices  n.c. schenck & g.s. sm.) on the  herb yield, essential oil (eo) content and nutrient acquisition of basil (ocimum basilicum l.) under drought stress conditions,the experiment conducted with 9 treatments and 4 replications. drought stre...

drought, high and low tempratures are the most important abiotic stresses in chickpea cultivation. improving plant root characteristics (root length and root volume) is one of the ways to increase drought tolerance in chickpea. mycorrhizal symbiosis increases drought resistance of host plants through different mechanisms. to study the effects of water stress and mycorrhizal fungi inoculation on...

Monkeys exposed to stress inoculation protocols early in life subsequently exhibit diminished neurobiological responses to moderate psychological stressors and enhanced cognitive control of behavior during juvenile development compared to non-inoculated monkeys. The present experiments extended these findings and revealed that stress inoculated monkeys: (a) mount neurobiological responses equiv...

Drought stress is one of the most determinative factors of agriculture and plays a major role in limiting crop productivity. This limitation is going to rising through climate changes. However, plants have their own defense systems to moderate the adverse effects of climatic conditions. MicroRNA-mediated post-transcriptional gene regulation is one of these defense mechanisms. The root endophyti...

aim and background: individuals are faced with numerous stressful life events which can negatively influence their mental health. many individuals use smoking as a means of confronting stress. given the relatively high prevalence of smoking in central iran, the present study was conducted to compare stress levels in smokers, non-smokers, and those who had quit smoking. methods and materials: th...

background & aim: women experience various changes in their transition into motherhood and feel stressed while facing new challenges in this period. high levels of stress may prevent mothers from realizing their maternal role. in this study, we aimed to explore the effects of training on the stress of primiparous mothers. methods:in this quasi-experimental intervention, 100 pregnant women were ...

background: arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (amf) have the potential to optimize the rhizospheric soil characteristics considerably thereby affecting plant growth. objectives: the aim is to investigate the effects of fungi inoculation (glomus intraradices) on morphological, physiological and phytochemical traits of rosemary (rosemarinus officinalis l.) under salt stress. methods: a factorial exper...

ABSTRACT-Water stress is the main cause for crop yield reduction in the majority of agricultural regions of the world because it affects almost all plant functions. The effects of Glomus mosseae on growth, nutrients uptake, and antioxidant enzymes of sour orange (Citrus aurantium) and rough lemon) Citrus jambheri) rootstocks were assessed in sterilized soil under greenhouse conditions.  A three...
