In order to investigate the effect of water deficit stress and sources of nitrogen fertilizer on germination quality and vigor of wheat seeds of Chamran cultivar, an experiment was conducted in Agricultural Research Center of Fars province. In this experiment, wheat seeds were first treated at three levels of water deficit stress (complete irrigation, water deficit stress in milky and rough stage) and four levels of nitrogen fertilizer sources (urea fertilizer 100% plant requirement, urea fertilizer 25% Along with nitroxin and nitrogen, 50% urea fertilizer with nitroxin and nitrogen, 75% urea fertilizer with nitroxin and nitrogen were produced. Then, the quality and vigor of the seeds were tested in two standard experiments of germination and accelerated aging in a factorial design with four replications. The results showed that the effect of experimental treatments on all measured traits except germination percentage was significant. Water deficit stress and sources of nitroxin and nitrogen fertilizer with 25% urea at the beginning of decline led to an increase in protein concentration (12.39%), but the lowest amount of starch (20.85 %) under the interaction of nitroxin and nitrogen fertilizer with 75% urea in 48 hours Deterioration was observed. Water deficit stress also increased the concentration of soluble sugars and decreased the grain alpha-amylase enzymes. Overall, the results of this study showed that the use of combined treatments of urea fertilizer and biofertilizers in stress conditions to feed the mother plant led to the production of seeds with higher vigor and more resistance to decay.

In order to investigate seed bio-priming effects on some germination index of Pimpinella anisum L. under drought stress, this research was done in genetic lab at Agriculture department of Yasouj University. The experiment was factorial with two factor based on CRD design in 4 replications and in each Petri dishe 30 seeds were planted. First factor was seed bio-priming with nine level (on bio-priming, 4 Bactria strain (P.fluorescent), fluorescent (CHA0), 1) P.F (, 2) P.F (, 16) B (and 52 (B)) and 4 strain of T.harzianum (T29, T32, T43, T36 and T39) and second factor include osmotic potential of drought stress in 3 levels (0, -3 and -6 bar). The evaluated traits in this study included germination percentage, germination rate, seedling length, dry weight, seedling vigour index (weight and length) and alometric coefficient. Results of test showed that increasing drought stress, decreased seed germination indexes, and bio-priming couldn’t improve these indexes than non-priming seeds, therefore in each of drought stress potential, T36 has the maximum germination percentage (83.88), germination rate (4.7), seedling length vigor index (10), seedling dry weight (8.07), and seedling weight vigor index (15.25) and not primed seeds have the lowest amount of this traits. According to the results, it can be stated that the application of bio-priming treatment can moderately reduce the adverse effects of drought stress in the germination stage of pimpinella anisum L.

To study the germination of seeds of anise harvested from the mother plant under different fertilizer treatments experiment completely randomized design with 17 treatments and 4 replications was conducted in the laboratory of seed technology of Yasouj university. Treatments were concluded: Pure vermicompost (0, 5, 10 ton. ha-1) and bio fertilizers Azotobacter (Barvar-1), biological phosphorus (Barvar-2) and mixed of Barvar-1and Barvar-2, chemical nitrogen, bio fertilizers of nano and mixing treatments of vermicompost 2.5, 5, 7.5 tons. ha-1 with biological fertilizers Barvar-1, 2 and mixing of Barvar-1, 2. Results showed that the maximum α-Amylase activity was obtained by applying 7.5 tons. ha-1 vermicompost with Barvar-1, 2 and urea. The minimum values α-Amylase activity was obtained from the control treatment. The maximum percentage (92%) and rate (2.07 seed per day) of germination was belonged to the urea treatment. The maximum Seedling Length vigor index was observed in integrated treatment using organic fertilizers and biological value (9.73), showing no significant difference with urea fertilizer (9.71). Finally these results showed that the use of vermicompost and bio-fertilizers, particularly of 10 tons per hectare with the combined application of phosphate solubilizing bacteria and nitrogen stabilizer Could be as a alternative treatment for increase the absorption of nutrients such as nitrogen and phosphorus through seed germination, leading to an improvement of the germination index in anise plant.

Reduction in germination and growth can be seen in seeds obtained from mother plants which have experienced water stress. From the other point of view utilization of biological fertilizers under environmental stress, the condition can produce seeds with higher germination capacity. This research was conducted as split plot based on a randomized complete block design with three replications in 2016. The main factor included of irrigation regimes at three levels included in soil irrigation after 25, 50 and 75% of soil moisture depletion and a sub-factor of phosphorus supply in six levels included of 100% phosphorus requirement from the source of triple superphosphate, 50% phosphorus + arbuscular mycorrhizal fungus, Mycorrhiza arbuscular fungus, 50% phosphorus + Pseudomonas fluorescens, Pseudomonas fluorescens and a control test without phosphorus fertilizer. Results showed that in 75% of soil moisture depletion, maximum amounts of germination, seed vigor, root length, stem length and seedling dry weight were obtained from 50% of phosphorus + arbuscular mycorrhiza. At irrigation level of 50 and 75% moisture depletion, the application of 50% phosphorus + arbuscular mycorrhiza made an increase in germination rate and uniformity. The electrical conductivity of Echinacea purpurea seeds showed increasing trend with intensification in drought stress. The results of this study showed that in present study Pseudomonas fluorescens had lower improvement effects on percent and rate of germination and the adjustment of drought adverse effects in compared with arbuscular mycorrhiza.
