Molecular markers provide a rapid approach to breeding for desired traits. To use them, it is necessary to determine the linkage between quantitative trait loci (QTL) and such markers. This study was conducted to investigate the genetic... more
One of the major issues facing humankind is global food security. A changing climate, coupled with a heightened consumer awareness of how food is produced and legislative changes governing the usage of agrichemicals for improving plant... more
A study was conducted to assess and map the fertility status of salt affected soils in central rift valley of Ethiopia Amibara Irrigation Project area, based on selected soil physico-chemical properties. Based on the information... more
In arid and semi-arid regions, the genus Atriplex has agronomic and ecological interest. Indeed, in addition to their good forage quality, they ensure fixation and soil enrichment. Halophytic plants are able to tolerate saline... more
The advent of agricultural biotechnology offers new approaches for the genetic improvement of date palm (Phoenix dactylifera L.), an important economic fruit crop in arid regions. In vitro studies were conducted to recover date palm... more
Response of photosynthetic apparatus in some sunflower cultivars, i.e., S.28111, Hysun-33, Hysun-39, and SF0049, to salt, drought, and combined stresses were studied. The combined stress caused severe damage to photosynthetic apparatus as... more
Malnutrition is one of the major problems in the poor people of Bangladesh. There are some reports that additional nitrogen (over than recommended does) application to wheat plants result in more protein content in wheat grain. To justify... more
Globally salinity is considered as one of the most serious problems of agriculture and allied sectors, especially in arid and semiarid regions. Increased soil salinity may be the main factor in making arable land unfavorable for a wide... more
The effect of salt stress on antioxidative activity was studied in two species of halophytes Atriplex: halimus and canescens. The plants were exposed to 100, 300 and 600 mM l ‐1 NaCl for 30 days. The parameter of oxidative stress induced... more
The interactive effects of saline water (2000, 4000 and 6000 mg/l) and foliar application of 400 mg/l of ascorbic acid (Asc) or α – tocopherol (α-Toco) on three flax cultivars (Sakha 3, Giza 8 and Ariane) were conducted during two... more
Modulation of salt stress effects on the growth, physio-chemical attributes and yields of Phaseolus vulgaris L. plants by the combined application of salicylic acid and Moringa oleifera leaf extract Moringa oleifera leaf extract Salt... more
This study compared the effects of salt stress on the growth, photosynthesis, proline content and ion accumulation in seedlings of cultivated soybean ZH13 and wild soybean BB52. The results showed that salt stress markedly reduced the... more
Öz Sulama suyunun SAR değeri suyun kalite sınıfının belirlenmesinde birincil parametredir. Bu nedenle SAR değeri dikkate alınmadan sodyum tuzu ile yapılan çalışmalarda elde edilen sonuçlar tuz zararı olmayıp sodyum zararını temsil... more
The diverse ways that extreme climate events are expressed at the local level have represented a challenge for the development of transgenic "climate-ready" (resilient to environmental stress) seeds. Based on the Argentinean "HB4"... more
Salinity is a devastating problem of arid and semi-arid climatic regions with uneven salt accumulation which hinders growth and development of crops. The deleterious effects of salinity mainly depend on level and source of salinity. We... more
Dwindling high quality water resources and growing population are forcing growers to irrigate crops with water of high salinity. It is well recognized that salinity negatively affects plant physiology and biochemistry, and represents one... more
To investigate the effect of soaking with chitosan and proline levels under salinity stress on seedlings characters of wheat, a laboratory experiment was carried out at Central Laboratories in Central Administration for Seed Testing and... more
Finger millet (Eleusine coracana L.) is a hardy cereal known for its superior level of tolerance against drought, salinity, diseases and its nutritional properties. In this study, attempts were made to unravel the physiological and... more
Molecular markers provide a rapid approach to breeding for desired traits. To use them, it is necessary to determine the linkage between quantitative trait loci (QTL) and such markers. This study was conducted to investigate the genetic... more
Potato (Solanum tuberosum L.) tubers are an excellent staple food due to its high nutritional value. When the tuber reaches physiological competence, sprouting proceeds accompanied by changes at mRNA and protein levels. Potato tubers... more
Food security (a pressing issue for all nations) faces a threat due to population growth, land availability for growing crops, a changing climate (leading to increases in both abiotic and biotic stresses), heightened consumer awareness of... more
Various environmental stresses limit the plant growth and productivity. Earlier we reported the stress inducible dehydrin gene, OsDhn1, in rice. In this study we generated OsDhn1-overexpression transgenic rice plants (OsDhn1-OXs) to... more
Plant exposure to salinity is rapidly followed by a decrease in growth rate. Most of the physiologists interpreted this phenomenon as a direct consequence of metabolic perturbations induced by NaCI. This mechanistic approach has been... more
This review article was prepared based on our recent publications on cold-responsive plant calcium signaling released in Japanese, after a major revision updating the topics. Plants respond to various environmental stimuli such as acute... more
Aim of the study: To evaluate the morpho-physiological changes of Acacia auriculiformis in response to seawater induced salin-ity stress along with its tolerance limit. Area of study: Bangabandhu Sheikh Mujibur Rahman Agricultural... more
A field experiment was carried out at South of El-Husainia plain (salt affected soil), El-Sharkia Gov., Egypt, during two successive winter seasons of 2013/2014 and 2014/2015 to study the effects of anhydrous ammonia (AA); either applied... more
Biotic and abiotic stresses impose a major threat to agriculture. Increase crop productivity need to develop stress tolerant plants. Tomato (Lycopersicon esculentum Mill.) is a model plant for studying the mechanisms of plant salt... more
Because rare earth elements (REEs) are not present at high concentrations in the normal environments surrounding living organisms, the biological roles of REEs had not been intensively tested to date. In this article, the ongoing studies... more
Current agricultural production methods, for example the improper use of chemical fertilizers and pesticides, create many health and environmental problems. Use of plant growth-promoting bacteria (PGPB) for agricultural benefits is... more
A stable salt-tolerant potato cell line, able to grow on media containing 60–450 mM NaCl (i.e. low to high salinity) was selected. Callus grown on 120 or 150 mM NaCl showed higher fresh weights than the rest of the treatments. Replacing... more
