The present study has been conducted to compare new sugar beet cultivars for quantitative and qualitative traits in autumn sown condition as randomized complete block design at Safiabad agricultural and natural resources research and education center in 2017-2018. It has included 22 new sugar beet cultivar, investigated in three replications. Measured traits included number of leaf in plant, root yield, sugar content, white sugar content, white sugar yield, extraction coefficient of sugar, sodium, potassium, α-amino nitrogen, molasses sugar, and alkaloid ratio. The results show that all the measured traits in the cultivars have differed significantly. Highest root yield and white sugar yield are obtained from Callas and Honey cultivars with 125 and 113 ton/ha root yield and 13.5 and 13.6 ton/ha white sugar yield, respectively. Highest sugar and white sugar content with 15.75% and 13.63% are obtained from Sporta. Highest and lowest extraction coefficient of sugar are related to Sporta (86.5%) and Sharif (72.6%), respectively. The range of sodium, potassium, and α-amino nitrogen content has been from 1.54 to 4.26, 2.25 to 3.95, and 1.78 to 3.22 mEq, respectively. In total, to achieve maximum income for the farmer it is recommended that Callas and Honey cultivars or other cultivars that are in the same group with these cultivars should be used to obtain maximum root and sugar yield.

In order to study the effect of foliar application of nano iron chelated on antioxidant enzymes activity and yield of chamomile genotypes under drought stress condition, a factorial experiment based on randomized complete block design with three replications was conducted at the research greenhouse of the University of Zabol in 2014. Experimental treatments included drought stress (at 2 levels of control or 90% of field capacity and 70% of field capacity) and nano iron chelate (at 2 levels of control and 2 mg/l) and genotypes, including (Isfahan, Mashhad, Shiraz, Kerman, Arak and Safashahr). The results showed that the drought stress according to the genotype had different effects on antioxidant enzyme activities so that the enzymes activities increased in some of the genotypes and decreased in some of them. Water stress caused to increasing in catalase activity in genotypes of Arak, Kerman and Safashahr, peroxidase and increasing in ascrobats peroxidase activity in genotypes of Isfahan, Mashhad, Arak and Kerman, and increasing in polyphenol oxidase and guaiacol peroxidase in genotypes of Shiraz and Safashahr.The highest the economic yield were observed in Esfahan genotype. Generally, it could be said that stress causes damaging effects on the plant and using of nano-chelate can increase the plant̕ s tolerance to stress and application of Isfahan and Mashhad genotypes are suitable for stress conditions.

This study was carried out to evaluate the changes in some important cell parameters under water limitation in sorghum genotypes. A factorial experiment was conducted based on randomized completely design in greenhouse, in University of Mohaghegh Ardabili in 2014. Treatments were water stress at levels of 85, 65, 45 and 25 percent field capacity in and three genotypes of forage sorghum (KFS2, KFS6 and KFS17). The results showed that water stress reduced the osmotic potential, relative water content, cell membrane stability redecase in one percent, also the amount of potassium, calcium, phosphorus, while increased sodium content and finaly decreased biomass. Interaction between stress and genotype only proline, soluble sugars, cell membrane stability, relative water content and biomass was statistical difference. KFS2 genotype had the highest amounts of proline, soluble sugars and nutrients, higher osmotic potential, relative water content, cell membrane stability and biomass in most severe stress levels (25 percent of field capacity). The highest contribution between proline and calcium amount for osmotic potential and membrane stability prediction. These factors also play an important role in biomass production. In general we can say the genotypes used for different mechanisms to deal with stress, however, the genotypes which use faster and less expensive methods are able to have greater tolerance to stress and will a higher yield produce.
