Nano-Zinc Oxide and Effects on Physiological and Biochemical Aspects of Wheat Cultivars under Saline Conditions.

Background And Objective: Saline soils are restrictive factors to agriculture in arid and semi-arid regions, plant growth and productivity. Thus, it was important to consider how, nano-zinc oxide or bulk zinc oxide alleviates the oxidative salt stress in the presence of Arbuscular mycorrhiza (AM) fungi by two wheat cultivars (Sids 13 and Sakha 94).

Materials And Methods: A field experiment was carried out during two winter successive seasons to study the beneficial role of nano-zinc oxide or bulk zinc oxide with different concentrations (5 and 10 mg L-1) in enhancing growth, some biochemical and physiological of two wheat cultivars under saline soil.

Growth, Yield and Biochemical Impact of Anti-transpirants on Sunflower Plant Grown under Water Deficit.

Background And Objective: Climate change affecting on weather in many different ways especially drought and temperature rise. This will drastically down plant production, if not start looking for another source to increase water productivity to cope up with water stress conditions. In this study efforts were conducted to interpret the use of anti-transpirants to conserving irrigation water, aiding plant survival under dry conditions and protecting plant against drought stress.
