the response of root to water stress is one of the most important parameters for researchers. study of growth and distribution of root under different irrigation managements helpsresearchersto a better understanding of soil water content, and the availability of water and nutrition in water stress condition. to investigate the effects of four levels of irrigation under two different deficit irr...

water deficit stress permanent or temporary limits the growth and distribution of natural vegetation and performance of plants more than other environmental factors. in order to investigate the effect of drought stress and mycorrhizal-arbuscular fungi inoculation on the growth and yield of savory (satureja hortensis l.) a factorial experiment based on completely randomized design were conducted...

the effects of water deficit on grain yield, yield components and the physiological char-acteristics of barley (hordeum vulgare l.) varieties were studied in a split plot design dur-ing the 1999-2000 growing season in karaj, iran. five irrigation levels [0, 25, 50, 75, and 100% crop water requirements (cwr)] and six barley varieties karoon kavir , rei-hani(drought tolerant), torkman , c-74-9 (i...

We have previously reported that 14-d chronic intermittent cold (CIC) stress induced a cognitive deficit in reversal learning on the rat attentional set-shifting test. This effect may be related to dysregulation of 5-HT function in orbitofrontal cortex, as a model of cognitive dysfunction in depression. To test the ability of chronic antidepressant drug treatment to reverse the cognitive defici...

water deficit is an important factor limiting crop production worldwide. drought stress can be managed by improving the availability of soil moisture conserved and selecting drought tolerant genotypes. several physiological indices including stomatal conductance (kl), relative water content (rwc), leaf temperature (tl) and crop temperature stability (cts) along with yield, its components and se...

Water deficit is the major abiotic factor limiting plant growth and crop productivity around the world (Kramer, 1983). Approximately one third of the cultivated area of the world suffers from chronically inadequate supplies of water (Massacci et al., 2008). In all agricultural regions, yields of rain-fed crops are periodically reduced by drought (Kramer, 1983), and the severity of the problem m...
