seedlings of five canola genotypes (hyola308, hyola401, hyola60, optlon50, and rgs003), were grown in hoagland nutrient solution containing s1=0, s2=100, s3=200 and s4=300 mm nacl in controlled environment. such antioxidant activities as catalase (cat), ascobrate peroxidase (apx) and guaiacol peroxidase (gpx), as well as osmolyte concentration (proline), chlorophyll fluorescence and some enzyme...

In order to improve the salt tolerance of some canola genotypes to be suitable for cultivation in Kingdom of Saudi Arabia (KSA), the salt tolerance gene (mt1D) encoding for mannitol-1-phosphate dehydrogenase was introduced to the canola plants using the agrobacterium-mediated transformation. To achieve that, five canola genotypes were selected as a relatively salt tolerance among 15 canola geno...

canola has industrial applications as well as edible usage. in regard to 15.8 kg oil per capita usage and vast oil importing, cultivation development of oil seeds is a major issue. this study was performed to determine the best sowing date and cultivars for canola as means of seed yield and oil percent improvement in dehloran region of elam province. 25 treatments were used in a split plot expe...

Rapeseed (Brassica napus L.) is a crop relatively tolerant to salt. The effect of different ratios of NaCl/KCl was studied in two cultivars (Hyola308 and Kristina) of Rapeseed in 2002. Canola seedlings were grown in Hoagland’s solutions, which were salinized by different ratios of NaCl/KCl. The treatments or KCl:NaCl ratios were 0:0 (control);10:10; 20:0 (Total Added Salt or TAS=20 mol.m-3), 0:...

rapeseed (brassica napus l.) is a crop relatively tolerant to salt. the effect of different ratios of nacl/kcl was studied in two cultivars (hyola308 and kristina) of rapeseed in 2002. canola seedlings were grown in hoagland’s solutions, which were salinized by different ratios of nacl/kcl. the treatments or kcl:nacl ratios were 0:0 (control);10:10; 20:0 (total added salt or tas=20 mol.m-3), 0:...

the effect of tricyclazole application on waterlogging damage alleviation in canola seedlings was evaluated in a pot experiment in complete randomized design layout with three replications. treatments included: control (no waterlogging), waterlogging, tricyclazole plus waterlogging and tricyclazole. tricyclazole (75%) applied at three-leaf stage on canola seedlings. seedlings were exposed to wa...

In an effort to determine the biochemical markers for identifying genotypes before sowing for drought tolerance, changes in activities of antioxidant enzymes were determined in the seedlings of five drought-tolerant and five drought-sensitive wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) genotypes, each with different genetic background growing under normal and water deficit conditions induced by 6% mannitol. I...

in order to determine the effect of vernalization on phenology and development rate of canola varieties, an experiment was conducted at research farm of gorgan university of agricultural science and natural resources during 2005-2006. the experiment was a randomized complete block design arranged in split plot with four replications. six varieties of canola (option500, rgs003, hyola308, hyola60...
