studying the ecology of halophyte plant species provides useful information for reclamation and managements of arid and semiarid rangelands. this research was implemented as a pot experiment in which seeds of three rangeland species (erotiaceratoides, agropyrndesertorum, and salsolaarbusculiformis) were sown in the soil taken from understory of salsola or from the open spaces. soil samples were...

in order to study effect of seed weight on germination and growth of wheat seedling, an experiment in seed technology laboratory of aboureihan paradise university of tehran in 2005 has been done. in this experiment, at first stage, the seeds separated by longitude step, latitude step and set frequency parameters of gravity separator set. in second stage, 10 treatments of 1000 seed weight entere...

this study was aimed to assess the effects of excess boron on 59 genetically divergent wheat accessions and to identify those with high and stable yields under a range of soil boron concentrations. the second aim was to test the applicability of a laboratory technique performed at juvenile stages of development in estimating field boron tolerance. the study comprised a control and three boron t...

the purpose of the research was determine the effects of gamma ray on seed germination, seedling height and root length of rice (oryza sativa l. spp. indica cv. mr219) to identify the lethal dosage of the radiation. paddy seeds of mr219 were exposed to different doses of gamma radiations viz 50,100,150,200,250,300,350,400,450,500,600,700,800,900 and 1000 gy using 60co as the radiation source. t...

the effect of electromagnetic field was examined on zinnia (zinnia elegans) seeds to enhance seed germination and early growth. the seeds were exposed to four magnetic strengths of 15, 100, 400 and 800 mt in four durations of 30, 60, 120 and 240 min. the experiments were carried out in two forms of laboratory germination and soil emergence. results showed that magnetic field application enhance...
