physiological study of wheat varieties under abiotic stress conditions is a very important factor for improving their future productions. this research work was conducted in the research greenhouse of faculty of agriculture, tarbiat modarres university in 2006, to study leaf quantitative traits of durum wheat under different levels of carbon dioxide (400 and 900 ppm), ultraviolet radiation (uv ...

Broad bean (Vicia faba cv. Lincan II) were grown in pots at two CO2 concentrations (350 and 700 parts per million by volume (ppmv)) and three soil water levels (80, 60 and 40% field water capacity) in field open-top chambers (OTCf). Water deficit reduced plant shoot dry weight, bean yield, and water use efficiency (WUE) by over 40, 30, and 15%, respectively, with higher relative reduction under...

water deficit, ultraviolet radiation and carbon dioxide enrichment are the most important environmental factors in global climate change. this research was conducted in tarbiat modares university, research greenhouse and the objective of that was to study the effects of three levels of carbon dioxide (500, 900 and 1300 ppm), uv-radiation (uv-a, b and c with intensity of 18, 25 and 40 µw.cm2 res...

Leaf N concentration is important because it is associated with the CO2 assimilatory capacity of crops, and in grasslands, it is an important determinant of forage nutritive value. Consequently, the productivity of both domestic and native animals in future global environments may be closely linked to possible changes in leaf N concentration of grasses. Since grasslands are frequently subjected...

drought, ultraviolet radiation and atmospheric co2 are some three environmental factors that seriously affect future food security. the objective followed in the present research was to study the effect of two levels of carbon dioxide (400 and 900 ppm), ultraviolet radiation (uv a, b and c with intensities of 18, 25 and 40 microw.cm-2 respectively) and water deficit (%100 and %60 of field capac...

in order to compare photosynthetic features of triticale, bread wheat, and barley under water deficit conditions, this experiment was carried out in kurdistan province in western iran. four genotypes of triticale, three cultivars of bread wheat, and a new variety of barley were compared under well watered (ψsoil= -3 bars) and soil water deficit (ψsoil= -12 bars) conditions in a randomized compl...

The objective of this study was to elevate water deficit tolerance by improving soluble sugar and free proline accumulation, photosynthetic pigment stabilization, photosynthetic abilities, growth performance and storage root yield in sweet potato cv. 'Tainung 57' using a foliar application of paclobutrazol (PBZ). The experiment followed a Completely Randomized Block Design with four concentrati...
