High salinity and drought are the major abiotic stresses that adversely affect plant growth and agricultural productivity. To investigate genes that are involved in response to abiotic stresses in Brassica napus, a comprehensive survey of genes induced by high-salinity and drought stresses was done by macroarray analysis. In total, 536 clones were identified to be putative high-salinity-or drou...

considering forage grass species, germination is one of the important stagesconcerning the growing stage that is often influenced by environmental stresses,particularly salinity and drought stresses. thus, this study aims to assess the effects ofsalinity and drought stresses on germination characteristics and seedling growth of desertwheatgrass, agropyron desertorum (fisch. ex link) schult. in ...

The current study aimed to investigate the effect of two abiotic stresses including salinity and drought on seed germination characteristics of Allyssum hamalocarpum in vitro. The experiment was designed as factorial completely randomized with four replications. Treatment included five levels of drought i.e. 0, – 0.19, – 0.25, – 0.41 and – 0.99 Mpa and five levels of salinity including 0, 50, 1...

Plants exposed to certain abiotic stress conditions tend to produce the amino acid proline, which acts as an active osmolyte, a metal chelator, an antioxidant, and a signaling molecule. There is increasing evidence that proline accumulates in plants due to a wide range of abiotic stress, in particular high soil salinity and drought. Therefore, proline content is often used as a marker-assisted ...

a major problem of arid and semi-arid regions is environmental stresses like salinity and drought. to study the effect of artichoke germination under different levels of salinity and drought, two separate experiments were performed. the experimental treatments included different salinity levels of nacl (0, 50, 100, 150 mm) and five drought levels by peg (0, 10%, 15%, 20% and 25%) with three rep...

objective: germination is one of the most important stages of plants growth that affected by environmental stresses, especially drought and salinity. methods: in order to study of artichoke germination under different levels of salinity and drought, two separate experiments were performed. the four levels of salinity by nacl (0, 50, 100, 150 mm) with three replications and five levels of drough...

Drought and salinity are two major abiotic stresses, similarly and/or differently affecting physiological processes of wheat. The aim of this study was to evaluate and compare the impacts of drought and salinity on wheat. A pot experiment was conducted as completely randomized design with three replications in the research greenhouse of Yasouj University in 2015. Treatments included different l...

A major problem of arid and semi-arid regions is environmental stresses like salinity and drought. To study the effect of Artichoke germination under different levels of salinity and drought, two separate experiments were performed. The experimental treatments included different salinity levels of NaCl (0, 50, 100, 150 mM) and five drought levels by PEG (0, 10%, 15%, 20% and 25%) with three rep...
