abstract in recent years some research results have appeared that exogenous salicylic acid provided significant mitigation effect against salinity induced injuries in plants. an experiment was conducted to investigate the effects of salt stress and salicylic acid on radish (raphanus sativus l.) plants. after appearing first leaves, plants were treated by salicylic acid (0.2 mm) for 3 days and n...

Ultrasonic assist with headspace solid phase microextraction (UA-HS-SPME) have been applied, for the first time, for the extraction of volatile organic compounds of Carum carvi L. from Iran. The oils obtained were analyzed by GC–MS. Different experimental parameters such as fiber's coating type, sonication time, extraction time and temperature, and desorption time were investigated. Results sho...

Plant essential oils from 20 plant species were tested for their insecticidal activity against larvae of Lycoriella ingenua (Dufour) (Diptera: Sciaridae) by using a fumigation bioassay. Good insecticidal activity (>90%) against larvae of L. ingenua was achieved with essential oils of caraway seed Carum carvi (L.)], lemongrass [Cymbopogon citratus (D.C.) Stapf.], mandarine (Citrus reticulate Bla...

The effects of salinity and supplied calcium chloride on growth and leaf ions concentration of tomato (Lycopersicon esculentum L.) were investigated in Gorgan, Iran. A factorial experiment was conducted based on RCBD with four NaCl levels (0, 50, 100, and 150 mM) and four CaCl2 levels (0, 100, 200 and 300 mg L-1). Data of growth, yield and leaf’s Ca, K, and Na content were subjected to analyze ...

AIMS There are many biological investigations for determining an effective cure for the dysfunction of gastrointestinal tracts, using herbal medicine. It has been reported that Carum Copticum is a bactericidal agent and possesses anticholinergic, antihistaminic and b-adrenergic stimulatory effects in some tissues. However, these effects of Carum Copticum on mechanical activities of isolated int...

Salinity is an abiotic stress factor that can cause significant crop yield losses. Nitrogen (N) is an essential plant element that is usually limited in most agricultural soils. Recently, incorporation of additives such as N-(n-butyl) Thiophosphoric triamide (NBPT) and Dicyandiaminde (DCD) into N fertilizers has been done with the purpose of increasing N use efficiency of crops. To our knowledg...

in order to investigate the effects of supplementary calcium chloride and potassium nitrate on plant growth of ammi (carum copticum l.) in different salinity levels and nutrient solutions (ns), an experiment based on randomized complete block design (rcbd) with factorial arrangement was conducted under greenhouse condition in the faculty of agriculture, vali-e-asr university of rafsanjan, durin...
