Although, grapevines do not have a high chilling requirement, its fulfillment is critical for normal development of the vines. In tropical and subtropical regions such as Farrashband, in the south of Iran, there is no adequate winter chilling to release bud dormancy in grapevines. So it is necessary to consider the effect of chemical dormancy–breaking agents on bud dormancy. In the present rese...

abstract dormancy in potato minituber buds is one of the limiting factors on planting them after harvesting. this study was undertaken in a completely randomized nested with arrengment three replications to examine the effective hormonal and temperature treatments on rapid breaking of minitubers dormancy at 2008. treatments included gibberellic acid (2 and 5 mg/l), benzyl adenine (5 and 10 mg/l...

to study the effects of chilling on dormancy breaking and the increased germination characteristics of nepeta (germination percent and speed, seedling length, vigor index, wet and dry weight), a factorial experiment in a completely randomized design with 4 replications was implemented in a laboratory in 2014. factor a was the chilling treatment in three levels (control, one-month and two-month ...

galbanum (ferula gummosa bioss) is a medicinal, commercial and industrial plant in iran but its cultivation is restricted by seed dormancy. therefore, a study was conducted to determine class and environmental requirements for breaking of seed dormancy. during imbibition study, both scarified and intact seeds exhibited similar pattern in water uptake and it seems there is not physical dormancy....

       Seed dormancy has an important role in resistance and survival mechanisms of plants. Finding of some information about the range of primary dormancy and effective factors in dormancy breaking and optimal conditions of seed germination are necessary for weed control and other research purposes.  In this research, the seeds of 10 species of grass weeds in Tehran province fields (Echinocloa...

to shorten the dormancy period of potato minitubers and to increase a tuber's capacity to be planted sooner after being harvested, an experiment was conducted at pishtaz tissue culture company in karaj, using factorial experiment on the basis of a completely randomized design with three replications. the first factor was comprised of cultivars (agria, marfona and burren), the second minitu...
