with the aim to examine lead tolerance of populus nigra (clone 62/154) in symbiosis with arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi, a greenhouse experiment was carried out in a factorial randomized complete scheme with two factors 1) fungal inoculation in 4 levels (control, inoculation with glomus mosseae, inoculation with g. intraradices and inoculation with g. mosseae + g. intraradices) and 2) lead in 4 l...

in order to evaluate the best drought resistance indices in sugar beetgenotypes, an experiment was conducted in 2002 using a split- plot design within randomized complete block design with three replications at the research farm, shiraz-zarghan. the main plots consisted of three irrigated regimes: non stress, 75% (mid stress) and 50% (intense stress) non stress and the ten genotypes as the sub ...

introduction: meningioma is usually a benign brain tumor, but sometimes with aggressive course. the aim of this study was to assess the ability of 201tl brain spect to differentiate the pathologic grade of meningioma preoperatively. methods: thirty lesions in 28 patients were evaluated in this study. early (20 minutes) and late (3 hours) brain spect images were performed and early uptake ratio...

in this research priority of gorgan’s sub- watershed were done after normalizing the indicators using gis software. the multi-attribute decision-making methods including electre, topsis and saw were used in this study. ahp was applied in order to weighting the indicators in expert choice software. first, priority the sub-watershed were done by electre, topsis and saw using the excel. each metho...

remote sensing is a key technology for assessing expansion and rate of land cover changes that awareness of these changes as the basic information has a special importance for various programs. in this study, land use changes were examined over the past 24 years, and the feasibility of predicting it in the future was evaluated by using the markov chain model of the abbas plain. landsat tm, etm+...

background and objectives: the region of the experiment is located in golestan province, iran, with agriculture subject to various farming conditions (rain-fed and irrigation) and different levels of salinity (more than 38% of golestan’s total land area is salt-affected). the purpose of this study has been to evaluate the stress indices in the selection of tolerant wheat genotypes, not only for...

in this study, a single layer sliced potato was dried using an infrared lamp heating under vacuum over three levels of radiant power including 100, 150 and 200 w, three slices thickness 1, 2 and 3 mm and the absolute pressure of 20, 80, 140 and 760 mmhg. samples were dried in triplicate to achieve 6% moisture content (wet based) which is suitable for long-term storage. drying rate was monitored...

in the current study, for improving quality and quantity of ‘yaghooti’ seedless grape, gibberellic acid was sprayed in four concentrations including zero (as control), 15, 25 and 40 mg/l, at three stages, and girdling treatments were carried out simultaneously with the third step of ga3 spraying at the base of  fruit bearing shoots with four replications. the cluster length was significantly in...

willows due to the rapid growth rate, low nutrient requirements, resistance to many pollutants, and environmental stresses are ideal candidates for developing the landscapes and reducing the environmental degradation. the purpose of this study was to determine the response of salix alba seedling to water deficit conditions. this experiment was set up as complete randomized design with five irri...
