the effect of electromagnetic field was examined on zinnia (zinnia elegans) seeds to enhance seed germination and early growth. the seeds were exposed to four magnetic strengths of 15, 100, 400 and 800 mt in four durations of 30, 60, 120 and 240 min. the experiments were carried out in two forms of laboratory germination and soil emergence. results showed that magnetic field application enhance...

in order to evaluation the effect of drought stress on germination indices and early seedling growth of medicinal herb dill (anethum graveolens l), an experiment was conducted in the agricultural laboratory of urmia payam noor university in 2015 as a randomized complete block design with four replications. treatments were five levels of drought stress (0, -1, -2, -3 and -4 bar induced by polyet...

the effect of tricyclazole application on waterlogging damage alleviation in canola seedlings was evaluated in a pot experiment in complete randomized design layout with three replications. treatments included: control (no waterlogging), waterlogging, tricyclazole plus waterlogging and tricyclazole. tricyclazole (75%) applied at three-leaf stage on canola seedlings. seedlings were exposed to wa...

The effect of electromagnetic field was examined on Zinnia (Zinnia elegans) seeds to enhance seed germination and early growth. The seeds were exposed to four magnetic strengths of 15, 100, 400 and 800 mT in four durations of 30, 60, 120 and 240 min. The experiments were carried out in two forms of laboratory germination and soil emergence. Results showed that magnetic field application enhance...

allelopathic relationship between plant associations, could be applied in non-chemical ‎weed management, however, those allelochemicals should not have adverse effects on arable ‎crops. in order to evaluate allelopatic effects of barley (hordeum vulgare) on ‎germination & growth characteristics of lentil (lens esculenta), two experiments were ‎conducted based on compactly randomized design (crd...

root rot disease of broad-bean caused by fusarium solani is a serious disease of this crop. due to high cost and difficulty of the disease control, interaction between root nodulating bacteria and fusarium. solani were evaluated to use for disease management. broad-bean root nodulating bacteria were isolated and their interaction with f. solani was investigated in culture medium in a completely...

organic compost can reduce various plant stresses, because of its porous structure, high water storage capacity, and existence of some substances resembling hormones and plant growth regulators. this study was performed to investigate interactions of different levels of vermicompost extract and salinity stress on morphological characteristics of bean seedlings. the experiment was conducted in c...

in order to study the effects of four concentrations (check, 5, 10 and 15%) of hull extracts on growth of 10 iranian rice cultivars, two experiments were conducted in completely randomized block design with factorial arrangement and three replications at two sites, laboratory and greenhouse. laboratory study showed that same rice hull extracts had stimulat effects and the others had inhibitory ...

Waterlogging reduces shoot and root growth and final yield of wheat. Waterlogged sites have a combination of low slope, high rainfall, heavy texture and low permeability. This study was aimed the importance of waterlogging on root growth and wheat yield. In order to study the effects of different waterlogging duration (0, 10, 20 and 30 days) at growth stages (1-leaf stage, tillering stage and s...

in order to study, the effects of drought stress on germination and seedling growth of chickpea genotypes, experiments were carried out on two susceptible genotypes (mcc68, mcc448) and two resistant genotypes (mcc392, mcc877). in the first experiment the seeds were sown under different levels of drought stress (0,-0.4,-0.8,-1.2mpa) in 25◦c at the growth chamber with 4 replication. the results s...
