The parasitic life is an example of interaction between two species (parasite and host plant), whose result is positive for one species and negative for the other species. Parasitic plants are more evolved than other species in the same family. Iran’s vegetation also includes some of these taxa, and the parasitic plants have been studied in surveys and repeated visits to the natural areas of the country. Even though their presence in vegetative areas is not centralized and is low in number, they are mostly found in all habitats and climates. In this research, a list of families and genera of parasitic and semi parasitic plants were prepared from the lists of country’s herbariums and existing sources. Reviewing these taxa in Iran’s flora showed that these plants include nearly 108 parasitic and semi-parasitic taxa. These species belong to six families including Loranthaceae, Cynomoriaceae, Santalaceae, Convolvulaceae, Orobanchaceae and Apodanthaceae. Orbanchaceae is the largest parasitic family in Iran with 12 genera and 71 species. It includes 26 semi-parasitic species from nine genera and 45 parasitic species from three genera. About 30 species of this list are being used in Iran’s traditional medicine for industrial and medicinal purposes. This study is a step for introducing these types of flowering plants that have not been considered properly by researchers.

The lack of a grazing system management program along with other natural and human factors in the country has led to the degradation of rangelands to a large extent. From a new perspective, the lack of grazing management, as an indirect consequence, but with a key role, can have negative effects on useful soil microorganisms, in particular, plant symbiosis with arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi. In this case, due to the sever imbalance between plant and fungus, the reclamation of rangelands with the help of symbiotic soil fungi will be difficult. To investigate the effects of grazing management on AMF symbiosis with S. laricina in three sites of heavy grazing, light grazing, and no grazing, the root and soil were completely randomly sampled around the rhizosphere. The mean of root colonization percentage and soil spores frequency, after assurance of homogeneity of variance and normal mean of data, were compared with the Duncan's analysis of variance at 95% confidence level. Early grazing and the lack of grazing systems management are among the factors that greatly reduce the fungus symbiosis with the roots of plants. Over time, the loss of this important ecosystem chain along with other factors, such as climate change and mismanagement of natural areas, has led to the decreased number of Salsola individuals. This results in changes in species composition and abundance as well as the presence of unpalatable and invasive species, which ultimately leads to the rangeland degradation.

The aim of this study was to assess the adaptability and performance of Eucalyptus species under dry weather conditions of Semnan city along with irrigation. Therefore, an experiment was conducted in 2008 in the suburb of Semnan in a randomized complete block design with three replications and nineteen treatments with a planting distance of 4*4 meters.Twenty-four seedlings were planted in each replicate and continued till 2013. Treatments included Eucalyptus species and provenances including E. camaldulensis, E. campaspe, E. largiflorens, E microtheca Fars, E. rubida sh-166, E. saligna sh-168, E. viminalis sh-168, and so on. The inventory consisted of three traits: viability percentage, total height, and collar diameter. Data were analyzed using analysis of variance (ANOVA) and Duncan test in the SPSS software.The results showed that the resistance of the species studied was different in this region, so that the species E.viminalis sh-168 was completely destroyed and the E. campaspe showed very little adaptation. The E. rubida sh-166 and E. saligna sh-168 showed low resistance. The most successful Eucalyptus species were E. camaldulensis Zh-41, E. camaldulensis 9616, E.camaldulensis Ch- 41and E. camaldulensis Sh- 41. In this research, the best provenances from the tested treatments that have been able to obtain a mean height of 10 to 11 meters within five 5 years are introduced.

The research was performed to evaluate the genetic potentials and variation of Haloxylon persicum genotypes, and establishment of a seed orchard, using the selected genotypes of the species in Yazd province. The study was conducted in the desert research station of Shahid Ayatollah Sadoughi, located in Askezar city.The seeds of fifteen genotypes were collected from natural habitats and planted in plastic pots during early spring.The seedlings were transplanted into the seed orchard after two months based on the orchard plan.Several traits including plant height, crown diameter, vigor, and susceptibility to powdery mildew were recorded on the plants.The data were analyzed using the correlation coefficient analysis.The genotypes with a vigorous crown growth and seed production were regarded as the best genotypes for seed production.Therefore, the best progenies were observed for three of the genotypes studied, whereas, the progenies of four other genotypes didn’t show any superiority.

The present study was conducted to investigate the effect of topographic factors in distribution of wild pears (Pyrus glabra) in Kermanshah province. The distribution area was classified into three altitudinal ranges including (>1500, 1500-2000, < 2000m a.s.l.), four geographical directions including (north, south, west and east) and also different land forms including (valley, slope, slope edge and flat). Sampling was performed within the 1000m2 plots established at least with three replications. In each plot, variables including number of trees, diameter at breast height (DBH), total height, stem length, and two perpendicular diameters of crown for the wild pears were recorded. The results showed that the study species has the highest crown cover on the west-direction slope and an altitude of 1,500 to 2,000 meters above sea level, and enjoys better growth conditions.

The genus Narcissus belongs to the Amaryllidaceae family. It has several species, from which, Narcissus tazetta is the most famous. This species is growing wild in the plains and foothills of south Zagros in the Fars, Khuzestan, Ilam and Kerman provinces. The wild population of Narcissus of Jereh in Kazerun is one of the most beautiful and unique communities of this species in Iran, covering an area about 29.5 hectares, and is located 50 to 55 km southeast of Kazerun in the Fars province. It is one of the most valuable genetic resources of Narcissus in Iran.

The genus Kaviria zehzadii (Akhani) Akhani of Amarantaceae family is one of the Iranian endemic species, whose natural habitat is located exclusively in Torbat Jam (between Mohammad Abad and Malo) in Khorasan Razavi province. Based on field visits, the area of occupancy (AOO) of this species was defined 0.174 km2 and the extent of occurrence (EOO) was estimated to be about half a square kilometer. Therefore, according to the criteria of the International Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN), this species is classified as Critically Endangered (CR). To conserve the species, its habitat should be protected as a genetic reserve.
