stem reserves of barely can be an important contributor to grain filling particularly under condition is limited such as salinity stress. the aim of this research was to study dry matter accumulation and remobilization ability in different internodes of some iranian barley varieties and promising lines under salinity and normal conditions. the research was set up as two randomized complete bloc...

Pyrethrum is a perennial daisy grown commercially for the insecticide that is extracted from its flowers. In order to evaluate germination and seedling growth of pyrethrum under different temperature and drought stress treatments, an experiment was conducted in seed technology laboratory of Faculty of Agriculture of Islamic Azad University of Isfahan branch in 2018. During this experiment, poly...

To study drought stress on seedling dry weight, proline contents and evaluate of antioxidant enzymes activity in canola genotypes (Brassica napus l.), an experiment were evaluated at laboratory physiology, Shahed University. This experiment was carried out in factorial with CRD design with 4 replications in 2008. The first factor was including levels of dough stress, one without stress as check...

The concept of dry weight of a dialysis patient is generally accepted and usually defined as the body weight less than which a normalbuminaemic patient maintained on haemodialysis will become hypotensive with fluid removal, and above which the same patient will be hypertensive and show subtle signs of fluid expansion. This concept is crucial to control hypertension adequately and to avoid risks...

Rohitukine, a chromane alkaloid, is a precursor of flavopiridol, a promising anti-cancer compound. Currently in Phase III clinical trials, flavopiridol is a potent inhibitor of several cyclin-dependent kinases (CDKs). Rohitukine was first reported from Amoora rohituka (0.083% dry weight) followed by that in Dysoxylum binectariferum (0.9% dry weight), both belonging to the family Meliaceae. Here...

The zinc content of peripheral blood leucocytes from the cord blood of 63 normal and 20 preterm babies, and of 27 babies with evidence of idiopathic intrauterine growth retardation (IUGR) was measured. Leucocyte zinc depletion was present in babies with acute IUGR (IUGR babies compared with controls, mean 47.8 v 51.5 ng zinc/mg dry weight), but was especially severe in those with prolonged IUGR...

Punctodera punctata completed its life cycle on Poa annua (annual bluegrass), P. pratensis (Merion Kentucky bluegrass), Lolium perenne (perennial ryegrass), and Festuca rubra rubra (spreading fescue). Minimum time for completion of a life cycle from second-stage juvenile to mature brown cyst was 40 days at 22-28 C. Inoculation by single juveniles indicated that reproduction was most likely by a...

Abstract Salinity is one of the major abiotic challenges influencing plant productivity worldwide. To examine the response of two alfalfa cultivars (Bami and Hamedani) to six levels of water salinity (0, 25, 50, 75, 100, 125 mM L-1 NaCl), a glasshouse experiment was conducted at the College of Agriculture, Shiraz University, Shiraz, Iran in 2008. The results showed that in Bami (which appeared...

the objective of this study was to obtain relationships between plant leaf area (cm2plant-1) with leaf dry weight (g plant-1), vegetative dry weight (g plant-1) and plant height (cm) in faba bean (vicia faba l.). the experiment was conducted at the research farm of gorgan university of agricultural sciences in 2011-2012 growing season. the experimental design was a randomized complete block des...

in order to study the effects of micronutrients application on some morphological traits associated with seed quantity and quality of sugar beet cultivar shirin, an experiment was conducted in 2001-02 at ardabil agricultural research station. based on soil test results, soil ph was 7.62-7.80 with 0.49- 0.53% organic matter content, and the quantity of absorbable p, total n, and k amounts were f...
