in order to study the mode of genetic control and heritability of morphological characteristics important for the improvement of root weight, sugar yield and white sugar yield in tropical beet, griffing's diallel cross method along with the biplot display of diallel data were applied. nine sugar beet lines including 7112-36, 7173, 474, 452, 261, 436-104, sb-firoz, rr607 and 436 were crosse...

this study was conducted to determine water stress tolerance of two iranian dudaim melons (kerman & birjand) and one iranian muskmelon (samsoury). throughout the experiment, three different levels of irrigation with three irrigation starting points (-50, -65 and -75 cb of matric potential) were employed. results indicated that water stress significantly affected yield, firmness, fruit sugars as...

the effect of levels of nitrogen on growth and nitrogen uptake patterns and grain protein quality of grain sorghum was investigated by two experiments which were conducted at pakdasht-tehran in 2003. in a completely randomized design with three replications, grain sorghum (sorghum bicolor (l.) moench) hybrid h-726 was grown under greenhouse conditions using water culture technique. the first ex...

in order to investigate the effect of nitrogen fertilizer on tea yield and yield components in supplemental irrigation and rain fed conditions an experiment was conducted at feshalam tea research station in fouman (guilan) during (2008-2010). in this study, line-source irrigation technique and the strip plot experiment on randomized complete block design was used. six levels of nitrogen, zero, ...

forest cover is one of the most effective factors in reducing flooding in northern iran, so that in recent years the destruction, land use changing and uncontrolled harvesting of forest areas, has greatly increased the number and magnitude of floods. so far, there have been few studies on forest hydrology in iran, particularly the northern hyrcanian forests. this study examines the impact of a ...

in order to investigate the effects of piriformospora indica and trichoderma tomentosum fungi on basil (ocimum basilicum l.) growth under copper nitrate levels, a pot experiment in factorial arrangement with three replicates was done during 2012. treatments were four levels of copper nitrate (0, 100, 200 and 300 mg kg-1 of soil) and four levels of fungal coexistence (non-inoculation control, in...

with regard to the positive effects of training in individuals with multiple sclerosis (ms) and gender differences in the prevalence and pattern of multiple sclerosis, the aim of this study was to determine the effect of eight weeks of selected training on some cytokines (tnf?, ifn?, il-10, hs-crp) in male and female ms patients. for this purpose, 35 male and female patients with ms (edss
