stem reserve remobilization is very important to keep the grain yield in wheat under terminal drought but the importance of this mechanism is unclear under terminal salinity. in this research stem reserve remobilization under terminal salinity were studied in greenhouse on four genotypes no14 and no49, different in remobilization, and bam as salt-tolerant and ghods as salt-sensitive cultivars. ...

Drought stress reduces seed crop yields in part by causing reproductive sterility associated with increased endogenous ABA. Application of the film antitranspirant, di-1-p-menthene, during reproductive-stage drought has been shown to ameliorate yield loss wheat but physiological processes involved are not understood. Using rain shelters simulate Mediterranean-type terminal drought, we studied p...

In wheat, stem water soluble carbohydrates (WSC), composed mainly of fructans, are the major carbon sources for grain filling during periods of decreasing photosynthesis or under drought stress after anthesis. Here, in a field drought experiment, WSC levels and associated enzyme activities were followed in different stem segments (peduncle, penultimate internode, lower parts of stem, and sheath...

crops that better tolerate weed competition or preempt resources from weeds may reduce dependence on herbicides and benefit an integrated weed management program. a field trail was conducted to determine the morphophysiological characteristics affecting tolerance and weed suppressive ability of some winter wheat cultivars in competition with rocket. the experimental treatments consisted of eigh...

in order to evaluate the waterlogging stress effects on yield and yield components of rapeseed, a pot experiment was conducted at gorgan university of agricultural sciences and natural resources during 2010-2011. the experiment design was completely randomized with factorial arrangement and three replications. examined factors were developmental stage (seedling, stem elongation, flowering and g...

in order to study effects of competitive weeds (sinapis arvensis, hordeum spp., secale montanum and agrostemma githago) on morphological traits, yield and harvest index of winter rapeseed (brassica napus l.) cultivars a factorial experiment was conducted in islamic azad university of tabriz, during 2007-2008. experimental factors were weeds controlling times included weeding in rosette (5-7 lea...

in order to study effects of application time of chevalier herbicide and integrate of illoxan with granstar on wheat and weed inahwaz, an experiment was conducted in ramin agriculture and natural resources university during 2007-2008, in split plot design by randomized complete blocks design with four replications. experimental factors was chevalier and integrate of granstar and illoxan herbici...
