In order to evaluate salt tolerance in seedling stage, seeds of 11 hybrid and new varieties of cotton, compared to commercial cultivars of Golestan as control were planted in pot. Factorial experiment in a completely randomized design with three replications was conducted at the Cotton Research Institute of Iran in 2014. The first factor was salinity levels and the second factor was 12 genotype...

This experiment was performed to study osmoregulators in sugar beet under salinity stress, and determine the best method for screening of tolerant and susceptible cultivars, in the greenhouse of Shahid Chamran University of Ahvaz during 2009-2010 growing season. Three sugar beet cultivars (BR1, Jolgeh & Rassoul) were grown under three salinity levels including control (Zero), 100 and 200 mM NaC...

To evaluate the effects of different levels of nitrogen (N) and salinity on yield and growth indices of tomato, a factorial experiment with a completely randomized design and three replications was performed in greenhouse conditions. Treatments included four levels of salinity (0.5, 2.5, 4.5 and 6.5 dS/m as NaCl) and four levels of N (0, 60, 120 and 240 kg/ha). The results showed that fruit yie...

In order to study the genetic diversity of 75 Iranian rice genotypes (45 Iranian land race, 25 improved cultivars, and 5 exotic cultivars) with respect to their salinity tolerance at seedling stage and to determine tolerance indices, based on biomass, genotypic code and Na+/K+ ratio a factorial experiment in randomized complete block design with three replications was conducted under control an...

                      In order to study effect of the various levels of drought and salinity stress (0, -4, -8, -12, -16 bar) on morphological, physiological and biochemical traits of Atriplex halimus in seedling stage under hydroponic culture, two separated experiments were conducted as completely randomized design in three replications in hydroecology laboratory of Gonbad Kavous University...

Due to the growing population, crop production is one of the essential needs of the society. Since soil and water salinity can have a great impact on the crop yield loss; so, the appropriate irrigation method can be applied to reduce these effects. In this study, the system dynamics model was developed using VENSIM. The model simulated the effect of salinity and water stress on the crop yield, ...

In order to evaluate the response of rice genotypes to salinity stress at germination stage an experiment was conducted as a factorial experiment in a completely randomized design with three replications in Biotechnology La of Sari Agricultural Sciences and Natural Resources University (SANRU). Sixteen rice genotypes were evaluated at four salinity levels (0, 40, 80 and 120 mM). The results of ...
