background and objectives : zeolite is a group of anionic hydrated aluminosilicates with a tridimensional structure which has great implications in remediation of water, sediment and soil resources. the present research aims at physicochemical investigation, clay mineralogy and micromorphology of soils along rafsanjan-sarcheshmeh lithotoposequence, southeastern iran. materials and methods: the ...

plant growth promoting rhizobacteria and arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi can inhanced plant growth by increasing nutrient uptake. in order to investigate the effect of pgpr and amf on some morphological parameters, macro (nitrogen, phosphorus, potassium, calcium and magnesium) and micro (iron, zinc and copper) nutrients uptake, percentage of root colonization and some morphological factors of pepp...

the purpose of this study was to examine the effectiveness of nanosilver colloid as a new antimicrobial agent against erwinia in tissue culture of sugar beet for the recovery of the contaminated doubled haploid plantlets. the nanosilver colloidal solution of 4000 ppm was diluted in different concentrations (0, 50, 75, 100 and 125 ppm) and was added to the solid ms medium. in a factorial experim...

1. introduction isfahan oil refinery (isfahan, iran) is responsible for the production of huge amounts of oil waste. as the released organic compounds are highly toxic, carcinogenic, and mutagenic, they can potentially contaminate the soil and groundwater resources of the adjacent area. this is particularly important in isfahan where arid/semi-arid climate has limited the access to adequate sur...

nitrogen forms exert significant effects on physiological and morphological characteristics of plant. in this study, the effects of ammonium, nitrate, and ammonium-nitrate on pepper plants were investigated in soil culture, as well as in solution culture. in the soil culture, 3, 4-dimethylpyrazole phosphate (dmpp) was used as a standard nitrification inhibitor to guarantee the presence of ammon...

detopping in some plants reduces vegetative growth and increases transporting of photosynthate materials to specific sinks such as seeds. to study the effects of detopping removal and plant density on yield and yield components of faba bean (vicia faba l.), an experiment was carried out as a factorial arrangement based on a randomized complete block design with three replications at farm resear...

regional analysis is one of the important methods for estimating the low flow in ungagged regions. investigation of the relations between effective factors of hydrological drought is the most important strategy to contrast and reduction of drought losses. in this study to analyze of low flow, the daily discharge data from 20 gauging stations with 25 years period (1988-2012) in the kashafroud ba...

background: the up-regulation of galectin-3, galectin-9, and galectin-15 expression in the luminal and glandular epithelium was reported in preparation of the endometrium for embryo implantation at the midlutheal phase. however, no data was available regarding the expression and the distribution pattern of galectin-8 in the human endometrium during a regular menstrual cycle. objective: the curr...
