in wheat na+ exclusion and k+/na+ have shown to be associated with salinity tolerance, therefore in order to identify qtls with additive effect for na+ and k+ concentration traits in roots and shoots of wheat, 319  bread wheat recombinant inbred lines (ril f7), derived from a cross between roshan cultivar (salt tolerant) and falat cultivar (salt sensitive), along with their parents and 2 checks...

hamoon is a new bread wheat cultivar derived from progenies of a cross made between falat and roshan. it is of spring habit and early maturity, 90-100 cm plant height, white spikes and thousand kernel weight of 40-45 gram. it is tolerant to lodging and environmental stresses(drought and salinity) as will as yellow rust. hamoon has hard grains of amber colour with averae protein content of 10.5%...

although inter-variety variability for salt tolerance has been reported in bread wheat plants, little information is available on the genetic control of ion contents and biomass yield under saline conditions. a diallel cross, including reciprocals of two salt tolerant, two moderately tolerant and two sensitive iranian and exotic bread wheat varieties, was analyzed to investigate the inheritance...

A sand culture experiment was conducted to answer the question whether or not exogenous KNO(3) can alleviate adverse effects of salt stress in winter wheat by monitoring plant growth, K(+)/Na(+) accumulation and the activity of some antioxidant enzymes. Seeds of two wheat cultivars (CVs), DK961 (salt-tolerant) and JN17 (salt-sensitive), were planted in sandboxes and controls germinated and rais...

intra-specific variations in apex development of two salt-tolerant cultivars (cross rowshan 11 (cr) and kharchia-65) and one salt-sensitive cultivar (ghods) of spring wheat (triticum aestivum l.) grown in sand culture at selected levels of salinity (0, 100, 200, and 300 mol m-3 nacl and cacl2 in 5:1 molar ratio) were studied. to determine the apex lengths and the number of spikelet primordi...

Four ecotypes of the species Lycopersicon cheesmanii ssp. minor (Hook.) C.H. Mull. from the Galapagos Islands were compared with L. esculentum Mill cv. VF 36 with respect to salt tolerance. The L. cheesmanii ecotype that proved most salt-tolerant was selected for detailed comparison with the L. esculentum cultivar. Plants were grown in modified Hoagland solution salinized with synthetic seawate...
