For evaluation of Iranian onion morphotypes potentials and application of them in breedingprogrames, seeds of 23 Iranian onion morphotypeswere collected from East Azarbaijan (RedAzarshahrmorphotypes), Tehran (Red Rey morphotypes), Razavi Khorasan (Red Neyshaboormorphotypes) and Zanjan (Gholyghese morphotypes). These onion morphotypes were planted inRCBD design in four replications in Seed and P...

In a study on coprophilous fungi, different samples including cow, sheep and horse dung and mouse feces were collected from different locations in West and East Azarbaijan provinces (NW Iran). Isolation of the fungi was done based on moist chamber culture method. Purification of the isolated fungi was done by single spore culture method. Several fungal taxa were obtained.

This study aimed to determine phenolic compounds of Artemisia spicigera (family Asteraceae) growing in East-Azarbaijan province of Iran. 20%, 40 % and 60% SPE fractions of methanolic extract of A. spicigera, were subjected to reversed phase preparative HPLC, with the mobile phase consisted of methanol and water. Structural identification of phytochemicals by spectroscopic methods including UV a...

The genus Silene, with more than 100 species in Iran is an important genus of Iranian flora. According to available data on the northwestern parts of Iran, including three provinces of Ardabil, East and West Azarbaijan are considered as a major diversity center of perennial species of the genus Silene in Iran. In the course of a revision of Silene in this area, some interesting specimens were c...
