Influences Of Different Iron Levels On Plant Growth And Photosynthesis Of W. Murcott Mandarin Grafted On Two Rootstocks Under High Ph Conditions, Meral İncesu, Turgut Yeşi̇loğlu, Berken Çi̇men, Bi̇lge Yilmaz Jan 2015

Influences Of Different Iron Levels On Plant Growth And Photosynthesis Of W. Murcott Mandarin Grafted On Two Rootstocks Under High Ph Conditions, Meral İncesu, Turgut Yeşi̇loğlu, Berken Çi̇men, Bi̇lge Yilmaz

Turkish Journal of Agriculture and Forestry

W. Murcott scion, budded onto two rootstocks, was evaluated under high pH conditions supplied with different Fe levels. Plant dry weight, leaf area, iron chlorosis symptom scale, leaf chlorophyll concentration, net photosynthetic rate, and ferric-chelate reductase (FCR) activity variables were investigated under high pH conditions. Control plants (T1) produced the most leaf area, whereas plants grown without Fe (T2) produced the least. Dry weight was highest in 'Volkameriana' T1 (control) plants and lowest in 'Swingle citrumelo' T3 (10 μM Fe and 7.8 pH) and T2 (0 μM Fe and 7.8 pH) treatments. Significant differences in SPAD and iron chlorosis scale …


Inorganic Nitrogen Fertilizers Induce Changes In Ammonium Assimilation And Gas Exchange In Camellia Sinensis L., Xu Hua Du, Fang Ren Peng, Jiang Jiang, Peng Peng Tan, Zhi Zhuang Wu, You Wang Liang, Zhe Ke Zhong Jan 2015

Inorganic Nitrogen Fertilizers Induce Changes In Ammonium Assimilation And Gas Exchange In Camellia Sinensis L., Xu Hua Du, Fang Ren Peng, Jiang Jiang, Peng Peng Tan, Zhi Zhuang Wu, You Wang Liang, Zhe Ke Zhong

Camellia sinensis L. is one of the most economically important crops in the world today. The leaves of this plant are harvested for tea production on a massive scale through a process that requires a large amount of inorganic nitrogen (N). However, knowledge of how inorganic nitrogen regulates the growth physiology of C. sinensis L. remains limited. In order to investigate its effects on gas exchange, N assimilation, and the efficiency of N use in C. sinensis L., we carried out experiments with 4 cultivars (WNZ, YS, ZN139, and LJ43) under 4 different treatments: 1) a control treatment, 2) a …


Response Of Bread-Wheat Seedlings To Waterlogging Stress, Murat Ti̇ryaki̇oğlu, Sema Karanlik, Mehmet Arslan Jan 2015

Response Of Bread-Wheat Seedlings To Waterlogging Stress, Murat Ti̇ryaki̇oğlu, Sema Karanlik, Mehmet Arslan

Waterlogging is a widespread problem and one of the major yield-limiting factors of wheat in some parts of the coastal plains of Turkey. The object of this study was to identify waterlogging-tolerant cultivars in bread wheat. Twenty-four bread-wheat genotypes were tested under aerobic and anaerobic conditions to determine shoot dry weight gain, root dry weight gain, total dry weight gain, dry leaf weight, specific dry leaf weight, chlorophyll content, carotenoid content, transpiration and photosynthesis rates, and their tolerance indices. A complete randomized block design with three replications was conducted for both aerobic and anaerobic conditions. The current study clearly demonstrated …

N-acetylcysteine (NAC) biosynthesized reduced glutathione (GSH), which maintains redox homeostasis in plants under normal and stressful conditions. To justify the effects of NAC on rice production, we measured yield parameters, chlorophyll (Chl) content, minimum Chl fluorescence (Fo), maximum Chl fluorescence (Fm), quantum yield (Fv/Fm), net photosynthesis rate (Pn), photosynthetically active radiation (PAR), and relative water content (RWC). Four treatments, N1G0 (nitrogen (N) with no NAC), N1G1 (N with NAC), N0G0 (no N and no NAC), and N0G1 (no N but with NAC), were arranged in a completely randomized design with five replications. Nitrogen significantly increased yield and yield parameters of …
