for identifying drought tolerance genotypes 29 wheat genotypes as cultivar factor and irrigation and non irrigation treatments as an irrigation factor in a split block design with 3 blocks were planted at a research filed of college of agriculture, tehran university, iran. there was a low and non significant correlation (r=0.35) between yield at non irrigating (ys) and yield at irrigating (yp) ...

the effect of salinity was assessed on the activity of some major antioxidant enzymes i.e., superoxide dismutase (sod), peroxidase (pod), catalase (cat), in the seedlings’ roots or shoots of three winter canola (brassica napus l.) cultivars, colvert (tolerant), symbol (semi tolerant) and agat (susceptible). seedlings were treated with 0 (control), 50, 100 and 150 mm nacl for 24 h in hydropoic c...

water and soil salinity are two of the most important limiting factors in crop production. phosphatase enzymes are widely found in plants. phosphatase enzymes are responsible for de-phosphorylation of organic phosphate and altering it to mineral phosphate. germination experiments were conducted using two bread wheat cultivars, namely, iniya66 and ghods along with application of different nacl p...

in order to evaluation of morphological selection criteria for salt tolerance screening in wheat (t. aestivum l.) a factorial experiment based on completely randomized design in 3 replications were conducted under greenhouse condition. salinity treatments involved 4 levels: s=1.3dsm-1 (control), 5, 10, 15 dsm-1 from calcium chloride and sodium chloride with 10:1 (na: ca ratio) and another facto...

Salinity is an environmental stress that limits growth and development in plants. Due to high salinity in Khuzestan soils it is necessary to identify cultivars with appropriate yield that are compatible with Khuzestan conditions. This experiment was done to evaluate three rice cultivars for salinity tolerance at seedling stage by measuring the absorption of sodium and potassium ions and the rat...
