“…GB is abundant mainly in the chloroplast where it plays a vital role in adjustment and protection of thylakoid membrane, thereby maintaining photosynthetic efficiency (Genard et al 1991). Plants synthesize glycine betaine via a two-step oxidation of choline: choline → betaine aldehyde → glycine betaine (Rhoades et al 1989). GB may serve as an osmoprotective to prevent cell damage from dehydration (Chen et al 2001).…”

Safflower is one of the oldest cultivated crops, usually grown at a small scale. Safflower is grown for flowers used for coloring, flavoring foods, dyes, medicinal properties, and livestock feed. Safflower is underutilized but gaining attention due to oil yield potential and the ability to grow under high temperatures, drought, and salinity. Salinity and drought have negative effects by disrupting the ionic and osmotic equilibrium of the plant cells. The stress signal is perceived by membranes then transduced in the cell to switch on the stress responsive genes. This review discusses on stress tolerance mechanisms in safflower. Strategies are proposed for enhancing drought and salt resistance in safflower.

“…Suggested agronomic practices for saline soils comprise irrigation at night to avoid evaporation loss (Rhoades, 1999), better cultivation approaches like sowing on raised beds, pre-sowing seed treatments to improve germination even in salt stress environment (Sayre, 2007;Egamberdiev, 2007;Bakker et al, 2010). Improved planting technique not only help to maintain optimize plant population by avoiding excessive crowding but also allow plants to exploit land, light, and other input resources uniformly and efficiently.…”

Rapid increase in population and consumption, urged upon the agronomists to develop a comprehensive site specific agro technology to boost up production per unit area and quality of daily dietary onion crop in salt affected soils by improving some basic components of the prevailing onion production technology in Pakistan. In this perspective a detailed and systematic series of field studies were undertaken for three consecutive years (2013 -2015) at Soil Salinity Research Institute, Pindi Bhattian, Pakistan to evaluate different nitrogen levels and the cost-effective planting technique for onion production under salt affected conditions. The experiment was laid out in split plot arrangement using randomized complete block design having three replications. Two planting methods, ridge and bed planting and 4 nitrogen levels, 1-recommended dose (RD) of N (90 kg ha -1 ), 2 -75 % N of RD (67.5 kg ha -1 ), 3 -125 % N of RD (112.5 kg ha -1 ), 4 -150 % N of RD (135 kg ha -1 ) were used. Planting methods were kept in main plots and nitrogen levels in sub plots keeping sub-plot size of 4 m x 6 m. Measurements included were: plant height, number of leaves/plants/m -2 , bulb diameter, bulb mass, total bulb yield, number of flowers/umbel, seed mass/plant and 1000-seed mass. Results showed that maximum onion yield and yield attributes were recorded with nitrogen application at rate of 150 & 125 of RD in ridge planting. However nitrogen application at rate of 125 of RD in ridge planting recorded higher economic returns over all the other treatments and is recommended as most cost effective technique for onion production under salt affected soil as compare to other treatments. . Obravnavanja z načini sadnje so bila na glavnih ploskvah, obravnavanja gnojenja z N pa na podploskvah velikost 4 m x 6 m. Meritve so obsegale višino rastlin, število listov/rastlino/m 2 , premer čebule, maso čebul, celokupni pridelek čebul, število cvetov na kobul, maso semena na rastlino in maso 1000 semen. Rezultati so pokazali največji pridelek čebule in njegovih delov pri obravnavanjih z dušikom 150 in 125 % od priporočene doze (RD) in pri sadnji na grebene. Pri tem je obravnavanje z dušikom 125 % od priporočene doze in sadnja na grebene dalo največji ekonomski učinek v primerjavi z drugimi in ga priporočamo kot stroškovno najbolj učinkovit način pridelave čebule v razmerah zasoljenih tal.Ključne besede: čebula; dušikova gnojila; načini sadnje; slanost; analiza stroškov in koristi

“…Crop consumptive demand for amount of irrigation water, water supply hardware and irrigation methods dictate the hydraulic design of irrigation systems. However, interrelations among irrigation water salinity, crop salinity tolerance level, leaching fraction (LF), leaching requirements (LR) and yield vs. salinity functions reveal a quite complicated relationship between irrigation hydraulic factors and salinity (Hoffman and Durnford, 1999;Letey, 1999;Rhoades, 1999). Cohen et al (2000aCohen et al ( , 2004a considered the loss of agricultural yield in irrigated fields, due to irrigation with saline water.…”

“…The lack of water supplies for irrigation is among the bottlenecks in the desired expected increase in food production. Use of saline water for irrigation was therefore suggested as a new source of irrigation water (Rhoades, 1999). Efficient use of saline water for irrigation requires appropriate development in the water supply system to improve system design and operation, which will account for water quality aspects in addition to the classical hydraulic design.…”

The Q-C Feasibility Domain (QCFD) was defined and proposed as a tool for design of multiquality irrigation water supply systems. It determines all feasible combinations of water discharge and water quality, and can be represented by a point, a line, or an area in a diagram of water discharge versus solute flow rate (a Q-J diagram). The shape of the QCFD is the result of dilution of two or more flows from sources of different water quality. (assuming conservative substances) Several types of QCFDs were analyzed at sources, inner nodes of a network, and of consumer outlets. The effect of water discharge constraints (due to flow limitations in the network) on the QCFDs was formulated and analyzed. Computation of QCFDs of dilution junctions by vector addition of their inflows was described. The method was extended numerically to nonlinear mixing due to dependence of water salinity. Use of this method enables computation of QCFDs for inner nodes in networks, including dilution junctions. The effect of network topology and flow direction was discussed. Application and demonstration will follow in the next paper in this series.

Il détermine toutes les combinaisons faisables de débit et de qualité de l'eau, et peut être représenté par un point, une ligne, ou un secteur dans un diagramme débit-concentration (un diagramme de Q-J). La forme du QCFD est le résultat de la dilution de deux écoulements ou plus provenant de sources de qualité différente (en supposant la conservation des quantités). Plusieurs types de QCFD ont été analysés aux sources, noeuds, et sorties du réseau. L'effet des contraintes de débit (dues aux limitations dans le réseau) sur le QCFD a été formulé et analysé. On décrit le calcul de QCFD aux jonctions par l'addition des vecteurs d'apports. La méthode a été étendues numériquement aux mélanges non linéaires du fait de la liaison avec la salinité de l'eau. L'utilisation de cette méthode permet le calcul de QCFD aux noeuds intérieurs des réseaux, y compris les jonctions de dilution. L'effet de la topologie de réseau et du sens d'écoulement a été discuté. L'application et la démonstration suivront dans le prochain papier de cette série.
