assessment of soil quality is one of the most useful tools for evaluation the soil management condition and different land uses. quantity indices of soil quality are most suitable methods for determination and comparison of soils quality. in this study soil quality indices and selection methods of effective soil properties were compared for evaluating the soil quality in different land uses. se...

due to the use of secale montanum for different rangelands reclamation across the country, management of these ecosystems need to be aware of its ability to environmental stresses. this research investigated the effect of pollutant element of cu and pb on seed germination and growth of this species in laboratory. therefore, the effect of five treatments (control, 50, 100, 150, 200ppm) of pb (no...

1- introduction this research attempts to investigate the effects of forensically-relevant facial concealment on voiceless fricatives /f, s, ʃ/ in farsi. there are various types of face-concealing garments that are commonly worn by people for the occupational, recreational, religious, and cultural purposes .these coverings may be typically used as disguises during the commission of crime by del...

the genus eremostachys (lamiaceae), consists of about 60 species which 15 species of eremostachys grow wildly in the north-west of iran. the rhizomes and roots of e. laciniata have traditionally been used as a local analgesic and for the treatment of rheumatic diseases and pain in the feet. this experiment was conducted in the north-west of iran in 2012-2013, to evaluate morphological diversity...

first principles calculations were carried out for investigation the novel 7-hydroxycoumarinyl gallates derivatives in gas and liquid phases using density functional theory (dft) method. computational chemistry simulations were carried out to compare calculated quantum chemical parameters for gallates derivatives. all calculations were performed using dmol3 code which is based on dft. the doubl...

the aim of this study was to investigate the effect of different concentration of royal jelly’s fatty acids (0.0, 125, 250, 500, 1000 µg/ml and 50 µl dmso) on in vitro maturation of goat oocyte. goat ovaries were collected from local slaughterhouse and transported to the laboratory and cocs were cultured into the maturation media supplemented with different concentration of royal jelly’s fatty ...

to evaluate symbiotic effectiveness and salt tolerance of sinorhizobium meliloti strains, 50 rhizobial strains were isolated from root nodules of medicago sativa cultivated in tehran and zanjan fields. under n-free conditions, the symbiotic effectiveness of different sinorhizobium meliloti strains of bami cultivar were evaluated under greenhouse conditions using 50 sinorhizobium meliloti strain...

drought is the most common environmental stresses that affects plant growth. to study the combined effects of arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (glomus intratadices) and jasmonic acid on growth and ecophysiologycal characteristics of pistachio seedlings cv. qazvini under drought stress, a greenhouse experiment was conducted in a completely randomized design with three replications. experimental fact...

to study the effects of biofertilizers on physiological and morphological characteristics, as well on essential oil content in dragonhead (dracocephalum moldavica), an experiment was conducted at tarbiat modares university in 2009. the studied factors were: vermicompost (0, 15, 30% v/pot), azotobacter (inoculated and non-inoculated), and phosphatic biofertilizer (inoculated and non-inoculated)....

gypsum found in the soil beneath the foundation of structures, specially hydraulic structures, can cause serious damage to them. the mechanical behavior of gypsiferous soils has not so far been investigated in detail except for the works of petrukhin (1993). here, it has been tried to investigate the mechanical behavior and the effect of soil being leached on settlement and strength of these ki...
