in order to investigate the effect of water deficit irrigation and natural products on vegetative characteristics of three varieties of chickpea, a field experiment was performed as split-split plot experiment in a randomized complete block design with three replications during 2011 growing season in shahrood (miami). the main plot was drought stress in four levels including normal irrigation (...

in order to evaluate the effects of drought stress at different phenological stages on growth indices of chickpea (cicer arietinum l.) cultivar jam, an experiment was carried out at the research greenhouse of faculty of agriculture, ferdowsi university of mashhad, using a completely randomized design with four replications. drought stress was applied by preventing irrigation until the soil mois...

In order to assess the response of four popularly grown black gram (Vigna mungo L.) genotypes (T9, PU 19, USJD 113, KU 301) under osmotic stress, the present study was carried out by monitoring the changes in relative leaf water content (RLWC), carotenoid, total soluble protein (TSP), membrane lipid peroxidation (MDA), H2O2 scavenging capacity, and the activities of superoxide dismutase (SOD) a...

to determine the effects of drought stress and fe and zn spraying on two annual medics, namely, medicago polymorph cv serena and medicago scutellata cv comertial, a field experiment as a split factorial based on a randomized complete blockdesign in 3 replications in allborze agricultural research center, in karaj was conducted. spraying treatments include distilled water (control), fe, zn and f...

rainfall deficiency and the development of salinity in iran are the most important factors for using new salt and drought-resistant plants instead of conventional crops. kochia species have recently attracted the attention of researchers as a forage and fodder crop in marginal lands worldwide due to its drought and salt tolerant characteristics. this field experiment was performed at the salini...

To examine the genetic variation for drought stress in chamomile, eight accessions belonging to four species were evaluated under both field and greenhouse conditions using normal and late season drought stress. In the field experiment drought stress were initiated with irrigation cease at the commencement of flowering time. In greenhouse experiment, irrigation carried out at flower initiation ...

the experiment was aimed at investigating the effects of defoliation (i. e. amanipulation of source size) at different times and with different intensities on yield, grain protein content and remobilization of dry matter from shoot to grain under various levels of soil moisture and nitrogen in winter wheat. two separate field experiments were conducted simultaneously under water stress vs irrig...
