Drought as the most important abiotic stress has deleterious effects on plants. Developing drought tolerant varieties can help produce plants in a sustainable way. This study was conducted to identify drought tolerant and drought sensitive thyme species including Thymus vulgaris, T. vulgaris (origin: Spain), T. carmanicus, T. daenensis and T. kotschyanus and to study the mechanism used by them ...

the performance of different yield loss models from an exponential family was evaluated in safflower-redroot pigweed systems in two field experiments conducted during 2007 and 2008 growing seasons at the research field of agricultural college of shiraz university, iran. the yield loss of safflower was recorded as relative yield loss in experimental plots laid out in split plot design with three...

Abstract Dynamical downscaling generally performs poorly on the Tibetan Plateau (TP), due to region’s complex topography and several aspects of model physics, especially convection land surface processes. This study investigated effects cumulus parameterization scheme (CPS) land-surface hydrology (LSHS) TP climate simulation during wet season using RegCM4 regional model. To address these issues...

abstract- to evaluate effects of different soil moisture conditions namely, phosphorus (p) and zinc (zn) application, on extractable zn and fe, two experiments were conducted in laboratory conditions based on a completely randomized design with a factorial arrangement of treatments with two replications. the first experiment was performed with the following factors; incubation time at four leve...

Water shortage is one of the most important environmental stresses in Mediterranean regions. Poor seedling quality may account for the failure of oak regeneration. To determine the best seed origin of Quercus brantii, we investigated on seedlings collected from 20 mother trees in the Zagros Mountain forests 700 to 2200 m altitudes above sea level. Seedlings from different altitudes were irrig...

febrile convulsion (fc) is the most common seizure disorder in childhood. white blood cell (wbc) and erythrocyte sedimentation rate (esr) are commonly measured in fc. trauma, vomiting and bleeding can also lead to wbc and esr so the blood tests must carefully be interpreted by the clinician. in this cross sectional study 410 children(163 with fc), aged 6 months to 5 years, admitted to bahrami c...

Weather simulations are sensitive to subgrid processes that parameterized in numerical weather prediction (NWP) models. In this study, we investigated the response of tropical cyclone Idai different cumulus parameterization schemes using Research and Forecasting (WRF) model with a 6 km grid length. Seventy-two-hour (00 UTC 13 March 00 16 March) were conducted New Tiedtke (Tiedtke), Simplified A...
