seeds of nine sugar beet lines: five drought tolerant, two susceptible, and two medium tolerant were washed, sterilised, dried, and sown in water agar medium for germination test. seedling growth characters such as cotyledon fresh weight (cfw), cotyledon dry weight (cdw), root fresh weight (rfw), root dry weight (rdw), and root length (rl) were determined after the end of 28 days period of expe...

in order to study the effect of soil compaction on root and shoot growth of wheat plants (shahriar variety), a greenhouse pot experiment was conducted in guilan university. the study design was factorial with completely randomized in three replications. treatments included three compaction levels; (normal compaction, compaction of ten percent and twenty percent) and two type of soil texture (cl...

Cadmium (Cd) in soil poses a major threat to plant growth and productivity. In the present experiment, we studied the effect of calcium (Ca(2+)) and/or potassium (K(+)) on the antioxidant system, accumulation of proline (Pro), malondialdehyde (MDA), and content of photosynthetic pigments, cadmium (Cd) and nutrients, i.e., Ca(2+) and K(+) in leaf of Vicia faba L. (cv. TARA) under Cd stress. Plan...

Salinity combined with a deficiency of potassium (K) and zinc (Zn) negatively affect sugar beet yield quality. A two-year (2017/18–2018/19) field trial was undertaken to investigate the mediating role soil-applied K [120 (K120) 180 (K180) kg ha?1] foliar-applied Zn [0 (Zn0), 150 (Zn150), 300 (Zn300) ppm] in alleviating salt-stress (8.60 dS m?1) based on morpho-physiological responses, quality, ...

The study evaluated the performances of Telfairia occidentalis Hooker fil. under varying growth media subject to amount Urea granules (25 g, 50 75 100 125 g and 150 g) dissolved in water containing micronutrients. were M25U, M50U, M75U, M100U, M125U, M150U, Control. Two-week old seedlings T. raised using River-sand transferred into non-circulatory media. indices (vine main length (VML), number ...

Environmental stress factors affect plant production more and every day. One of these is salinity. The use biostimulants increasing day by gaining importance in order to reduce the effects increase yield quality production. Chitosan (Ch) one whose agriculture Seeds rapeseed cultivars were used this study, it an important oil plant. In times priming applications with Ch (3 times) [0 (control) (C...

Finger millet (Eleusine coracana (L.) Gaertn.) is one of the most important cereal crops for people in Asia and Africa. It supplies energy nutrients all people, particularly poor these continents. Phosphorus (P) an essential macronutrient plant growth grain quality, so adequate amount P required healthy life. There considerable evidence that deficiency affects growths yields cereals, including ...
