one of the problems in growing olive trees is pollen-incompatibility. this study was conducted in gorgan climatic condition to determine the self-incompatibility of olive cv koroneiki and to select the suitable pollenizers. randomized complete block design with three replication (trees) and six treatments including open pollination, self pollination, mission, conservalia, sevilana and valanolia...

What are quantitative traits? Quantitative, or complex, traits are traits for which phenotypic variation is continuously distributed in natural populations, with population variation often approximating a statistical normal distribution on an appropriate scale. Quantitative traits include aspects of morphology (height, weight); physiology (blood pressure); behavior (aggression); as well as mole...

iris belongs toiridaceae family and it is monocotyledon. iris is one of the important ornamental and medicinal plants. 34 iris genotypes (14 species) collected from different provinces of iran were planted at national institute of ornamental plants (niop) iran. all of the species evaluated for 15 quantitative traits and 30 qualitative traits. results showed that the highest positive correlation...

(Received) This study explores an information-theoretic/log-linear approach to multivariate time series analysis. The method is applied to daily rainfall data (4 sites, 9 years), originally quantitative but here treated as dichotomous. The analysis ascertains which lagged variables are most predictive of future rainfall and how season can be optimally deened as an auxiliary predicting parameter...

since the promenades allocate the part of the country's revenues, therefore, attention to its valuation is very important. springs in desert area are the most prominent of natural landscapes. more study in country investigates recreational value using double– bounded dichotomous choice. but in this study, single-bounded dichotomous choice has been used because of this approach is more like...

the objective of this study was to compare six statistical methods for prediction of genomic breedingvalues for traits with different genetic architecture in term of gene effects distributions and number ofquantitative traits loci (qtls). a genome consisted of 500 bi-allelic single nucleotide polymorphism(snp) markers distributed over a chromosomes with 100 cm length was simulated. three differ...

In order to compare the efficiency of morphological traits and molecular markers in distinguishing the Consolida species, molecular analysis using nrDNA ITS and cpDNA trnL-trnF with maximum parsimony and Bayesian methods were done in a total of 34 species and forma representing 28 species of Consolida, 6 species of Aconitella, plus two species of Delphinium and two species of Aconitum as out gr...
