Soil salinity undergoes significant spatial and temporal variations; therefore, salinity mapping is difficult, expensive, and time consuming. However, researchers have mainly focused on arid soils (bare) and less attention has been paid to halophyte plants and their role as salinity indicators. Accordingly, this paper aimed to investigate the relationship between soil properties, such as electr...

soil salinity has been a large problem in arid and semi arid regions. preparation of such maps is useful for natural resource managers. old methods of preparing such maps require a lot of time and cost. multi-spectral remotely sensed dates due to the broad vision and repeating of these imageries is suitable for provide saline soil maps. this investigation is conducted to provide saline soil map...

the development of seminal and lateral root system plays a major role in plant access to water and nutrients under abiotic stress, especially salinity. in order to understand the relation between root growth responsesand shoot physiological indices oftwo bread wheat cultivars contrasting in salt tolerance (kavir and shiraz), a greenhouse experiment was conducted with two salinity levels (0 and ...

fluctuations in salinity impose stress on the physiology of the exposed fish population and can modify their structure. it has been noted that changes in blood characteristics and plasma levels serve as the primary link between environmental change and physiological response (mccormick, 2001). ninety healthy adult cyprinuscarpio (c. carpio) were randomly divided into five groups and kept in sal...

the role of zinc (zn) in enhancing defense capacity of several plants against salinity has been demonstrated but there is limited information on the impact of zn nutrition on alleviating salinity-induced oxidative damage in olive. one-year-old seedlings of two varieties of olive (olea europaea l. cvs. frontoio and conservolea) supplied with three zn levels (0, 1 and 5 mm in the form of znso4.7h...

application of nanofertilizers is one of the promising methods for increasing resources use efficiency and reducing environmental pollutions. uncontrolled application of chemical fertilizer and pesticides has caused many problems to human health and domestic animals. nanofertilizers application could be a suitable way to reduce these problems. accordingly, in order to assess the silicon nanopar...

abstract soil salinity in huge parts of the world, especially in arid and semi-arid regions, is a factor limiting growth of plant and other organisms. earthworm can be considered as an indicator of soil quality in agroecosystems, because of a positive correlation between earthworm abundance and the productivity of cropped plants. the main objective of this study was to realize the interaction b...
