Evaluation of the growth Cucumis sativus in arsenic (As) and chromium (Cr) treatedsoils was carried out. Parameters measured were germination, plant height, number ofleaves, relative water content total chlorophyll. The concentrations metalsolutions applied 0, 30, 60, 120 240 ppm saltsseparately. study conducted as potted field experiment. treatments werereplicated four times. Three days after ...

The low seed germination response and seedling growth of crops to salinity is common problem in Pakistan. To overcome this problem,seed priming used as an economic effective approach. Present study was conducted evaluate the effects halopriming ofseeds on germination, yield tomato under saline conditions. seeds variety ‘Raja’ were primed with 0, 50mM 100mM NH4NO3, KNO3, (NH4)2SO4 solutions for ...

Despite general effect of salicylic-acid (SA) in improving plant growth andproductivity in saline conditions, there have not been unanimity about the bestconcentration. In this 2-yr field study the effect of different SA concentrations(0, 0.5, 1.0, 1.5 and 2.0 mM) was examined on growth, grain yield and yieldcomponents of barley under two non-saline (2 dS m-1) and saline (12 dS m-1)conditions. ...

in order to study of nitrogen application time and seed inoculation with plant growth promotingrhizobacteria on yield, fertilizer use efficiency and grain filling rate of sunflower, a factorial experimentwas conducted based on randomized complete block design with three replications in research farm ofislamic azad university, ardabil branch in 2011. the first factor was time of nitrogen applica...

abstract plant- growth promoting rhizobacteria enhance plant growth and yield directly and or indirectly. a factorial experiment was conducted in greenhouse to determine the efficacy of four strains of fluorescent pseudomonas on wheat yield and yield component under saline conditions. the experiment was carried out with the following treatments (non –inoculation control and inoculation with p.f...

in order to study the reaction of barley genotypes to drought, an experiment was conducted in a factorialdesign based on crd for two wild ecotypes and four crop genotypes of barley in greenhouse. in thisstudy, the barley genotypes and wild ecotypes as the first factor and irrigation treatment with three levelsinclude 70 percent of water holding capacity of soil, 30 and 10 percent as the second ...

to identify trichoderma isolates for potential biocontrol of crown and root rot inpistachio, 100 samples of soil taken from rhizosphere, fertilizer channels and from soil surfacewere collected from kerman, yazd, khorasane razavi and semnan provinces during 2009-2011. overall, 32 isolates of trichoderma harzianum were obtained mostly from rhizospheresoil using either general or special environme...
