effects of different paclobutrazol concentrations (0, 250, 350 and 450 mgl-1) and plantlet density (80, 100 and 120 plantlet/m2) on minituber production per plantlet in potato cultivar ‘sante’ were investigated in a factorial experiment based upon a randomized complete block design of 4 replications. paclobutrazol (cultar with 250 g/l of active ingredient) was used as foliar application at earl...

to study the effects of drought stress and foliar application with salicylic acid on yield andit’s components and percentage of essential oil of nigella sativa l., a field experiment was conducted as split plot based on randomized complete block design with three replications at research farm of shahid bahonar university of kerman during growing season of 2013- 2014. the main factor was drought...

background and purpose     methods:     results     conclusion:

introduction groundwater resources in arid-semiarid zones universally suffer from problems of over-abstraction and declining water tables. in addition to the issues related to quantity, degradation of groundwater quality now assumes major importance in the arid and semiarid regions. in such areas, natural factors such as the low precipitation, combined with high evapotranspiration, result in hi...

the aim of this research was to evaluate the effect of one session of exhaustive exercise with low intensity (55-65% vo2max), moderate intensity (65-75% vo2max) and high intensity (75-85% vo2max) on adiponectin in active women. for this purpose, 30 healthy women (mean age 21.6 years, weigh 59.7+3.35 kg, vo2max 39.1+0.58 ml/kg/min, no history of cardiovascular diseases and diabetes) were selecte...

abstract: salicylic acid is a phytohormone with phenolic nature which has been proved its role in increasing plant resistance to biotic and abiotic stress in several studies. this study was performed in order to investigation of interaction between 0, 0.5 and 1.5 mm concentrations of salicylic acid, as a seed pretreatment and different levels of drought stress (100, 75, 50 and 25 percent of fie...

introduction today, with the increasing population and the need for strategic and industrial crops the farmers are simulated to grow these kinds of crops. thus, this subject has now been caused the inappropriate use of land and natural resources. on the other hand, the natural environment resources have limited the ability to use its resources and the climate change intensifies this limit abili...

the aim of this study was to investigate the relationships between air, noise, light and landscape pollution on job stress of staff work in high schools of different districts (1, 2, 10 and 11) of tehran. this stress can reduce the efficiency of the personnel. the number of people participated in this research was 250, selected by random from different schools of the districts. the questionnair...

summary based on the results of the analysis of site effects, mostly those with shear wave velocity and the fundamental period chosen as the basis for classification. in revision of earthquake resistant design regulations for buildings, classification of lands should be subject to the field conditions, geological, geotechnical, geophysical, and laboratory tests.in this context, the average shea...

in order to study the effects of four concentrations (check, 5, 10 and 15%) of hull extracts on growth of 10 iranian rice cultivars, two experiments were conducted in completely randomized block design with factorial arrangement and three replications at two sites, laboratory and greenhouse. laboratory study showed that same rice hull extracts had stimulat effects and the others had inhibitory ...
