abstract for evaluating nacl salinity effect on some physiological and qualitative attributes of five winter canola cultivars, an experiment was conducted in a rcd base factorial in three replicates in greenhouse of east azarbaijan agricultural research center in 2008. five salinity levels as 0, 50, 100, 150 and 200 mm nacl treated as first factor on five rape seed (fornax, licord, elite, slm04...

in order to evaluate the relationships between some traits of iranian rice seedlings under saline conditions,,75 iranian cultivars as traditional, improved and introduced cultivars were used, as a randomized complete block design experiment with 3 replications at rice research institute of iran in three levels of salinity (normal ,1.2 , 4 and 8 ds.m-1) in 2006. root and shoot length, root and s...

a study of physiological responses of different wheat cultivars to saline conditions can lead to an identification of the main mechanisms in salt tolerance. seven bread wheat cultivars differing in salt tolerance with varying ability of sodium accumulation in their different tissues were employed to assess ion distribution and sodium accumulation under saline conditions. ion distribution and na...

the ultrastructure of the cells, na+, k+-atpase activity and immunolocalization were examined in the barnchial chamber of libellula lydia (drury, 1773) larvae. na+,k+-atpase activity and localization were performed through biochemical techniques and immunofluorescence light microscopy using a mouse monoclonal antibody iggα5, respectively. the branchial chamber possesses six pair gills lamellae ...

Measurements were made of the sodium outflux rate constant, (o)k(Na), and sodium influx rate constant, (i)k(Na), at varying concentrations of extracellular (Na(o)) and intracellular (Na(c)) sodium. (o)k(Na) increases with increasing [Na(o)] in the presence of extracellular potassium (K(o)) and in solutions containing ouabain. In K-free solutions which do not contain ouabain, (o)k(Na) falls as [...

introduction: the regulation of the body fluid content (osmoregulation) of an aquatic animal, is performed by several organs. in fish, osmoregulatory mechanisms are based on the function of specialized cells (ionocytes) located in various tissues and organs including gills. na+, k+-atpase is one of the main osmoregulatory enzymes enabling the use of atp as a source of energy for ion transport t...

ABSTRACT- Seed germination and early seedling growth are critical stages for plants establishment and production, particularly under salinity conditions. Exogenous application of silicon (Si) can enhance germination as well as seedling growth. In this experiment, the effect of priming with Si (0, 0.75, 1.5 and 2.25 mM sodium silicate) on seed germination and seedling growth under NaCl (0, 100 a...
