The effects of non-saline soils with low, medium and high salinity, (EC = I, 7, 10 and 18 decisiemens per meter, respectively) on ion content and proline, were studied in different organs of  two colza (Brassica napus L.) cultivars, namely, PF 7045.91 and Hyola 401, in pot culture conditions and also the efficiency of comparing these changes were used as a tool for this study. Plants were grown...

Nitric oxide (NO) is a bioactive molecule, which was found to have several physiological roles, including antioxidant. To have a better understanding of the effects of NO concentrations (0, 0.1 and 0.2 mM) on germination, growth, photosynthetic pigments, lipid peroxidation and antioxidant activity of basil (Ocimum basilicum L.) under different salinity concentrations (0, 100 and 200 mM of NaCl)...

in this study, physiological and morphological responses of five almond cultivars to drought stress were investigated under in vitro conditions. plantlets from five commercial almond cultivars (supernova’, ‘tuono’, ‘sahand’, ‘ferragnes ’ and ‘shahroud 21’] were established in ms medium containing 0.5 mg per liter bap and then subcultured  in ms proliferation medium containing 1 mg per liter bap...

in this study proline content and activity of catalase (cat), and ascorbate peroxidase (apx) and level of lipid peroxidation in terms of malondialdehyde (mda) content were measured in transgenic tobacco (nicotiana tabacum cv. wisconsin), over expressing a δ-1-pyrroline-5-carboxylate synthase (p5cs) gene, and non transgenic plants as control. drought stress was applied using polyethylene glycol ...

in order to investigate the effect of different irrigation regimes on yield and leaf proline content of a spring isfahan local variety of safflower, a field experiment was conducted as split plot in randomized complete block design with three replications at the research station of shahrekord university in 2013-2014. the main factor consisted of four different irrigation regimes (irrigation aft...

effects of salinity and drought on growth, contents of proline, malondialdehyde (mda), proteinand activity of antioxidative enzymes were studied in two trigonella species. seeds andexplants of t. foenum-graecum and t. aphanoneura were grown on murashige and skoogmedium (ms) complemented with iso-osmotic concentrations of nacl (0, 100, 150 mm) andmannitol (0, 180, 275 mm). growth and relative wa...

In order to investigate the effects of salt stress on biochemical and physiological responses of two cultivars of alfalfa (Medicago sativa L.) namely, Diabolourde and Yazdi, chlorophyll content, growth parameters, and proline contents of roots and shoots, reducing sugars contents of roots and shoots, and membrane injuries of the plant samples were subjected to 0, 100, 150, and 200 mM NaCl treat...
