this study was conducted under ahvaz, iran environmental condition during 2012 and 2013 growing seasons in order to investigate the influence of foliar application of potassium on some physiological and biochemical characteristics of three olive cultivars including ‘mission’, ‘koroneiki’ and ‘dezfuli’. potassium sulfate in different concentrations of 0, 1, and 2 g l-1 was sprayed twice on selec...

experiments were conducted to test the effects of two different paper bags, white single- and green double-layers, on fruit quality and sunburn of pomegranate (punica granatum cv. rabab neiriz). young fruits, at 35 days after full bloom, were covered by bags. the results showed that white single layer bag increased size and weight of fruits and aril weight in comparison to those of control. in ...

background: autologous skin graft is frequently used in the field of plastic, and reconstructive surgery. the engraftment is dependent upon revascularization and angiogenesis, which can be regulated by different factors. in addition to its hematopoietic effects, erythropoietin is shown to positively affect the wound healing process. objectives: we studied effects of human erythropoietin on reva...

photosynthesis (1). Total radioactivity fixed per leaf was unchanged by the two-hour treatment with gibberellic acid; typical results are shown in table I. Similar results were also obtained in one experiment with Chlorella pyrenoidosa. Examination of autoradiograms of the chromatograms of extracts from the oats, barley, and peas showed no significant differences in the distribution of C'4 amon...

Background: Follicular pool is reduced after transplantation of vitrified ovary. Therefore, methods should be improved to accelerate ovarian function revival and maintain follicular reserve. In this study hyaluronic acid hydrogel as a scaffold was used to improve restoration of ovarian oestrous cycle. Materials and Methods: 79 mature (~8 weeks) rats having normal estrous cycles were divided int...

We investigated for 2 years (1995–1996) the time course development of chlorosis and the variation of iron (Fe) content in vegetative and reproductive organs in two nectarine orchards planted with cv Spring Red and cv Stark Redgold on calcareous soils of the Po valley (Italy) with the final aim to evaluate possible tools for the early prognosis of Fe chlorosis and a more efficient fertilization...

Intraparenchymal hemorrhage in the full-term neonate rarely occurs more than 2 weeks after birth, and its definitive cause remains unclear. In the present report, a case of a patient with intraparenchymal hemorrhage occurring 33 days after birth is described. Histological examination of the brain tissue obtained during hematoma evacuation through craniotomy showed hemorrhagic infarction. Patent...

‘Patharnakh’ and ‘Punjab Beauty’ are major pear cultivars grown under the subtropical conditions of northwestern India. These tend to put up profuse vegetative growth high density planting that leads excessive shading bearing zone canopy. To facilitate light penetration into inner plant canopy, there is a need contrive an efficient approach for management. The foliar applications varying concen...

Lignin is the main component of walnut endocarp, however, we know little about transcriptional responses and its potential regulatory mechanisms lignin formation in endocarp. Here selected two genotypes with different endocarp thickness, ‘Liaoning 7’ (L7) ‘Zanmei’ (ZM; thicker than L7), to study response mechanism that caused difference this character between them. The time regularity depositio...
