We construct non-malleable extractors with seed length d = O(log n+log(1/ε)) for n-bit sources with min-entropy k = Ω(d), where ε is the error guarantee. In particular, the seed length is logarithmic in n for ε > 2−(logn) 1/3 . This improves upon existing constructions that either require super-logarithmic seed length even for constant error guarantee, or otherwise only support min-entropy n/po...

tall fescue is a cool season grass widely distributed and adapted to different environmental conditions of iran. superior seed-yielding potential of the plant is an important criterion during the seed reproduction phases of breeding new cultivars and as well under commercial seed production conditions. in order to evaluate germplasm and investigate the pattern of genetic variation of seed trait...

some cerasus sub-genus wild species that are used as rootstocks in sour and sweet cherry propagation can also be employed in breeding programs. the aim of this study was to clearly evaluate some characteristics of subgenus cerasus genotypes to be used in the future cherries' breeding programs. in order to evaluate some morphological characteristics of the vegetative parts as well as seeds ...

In order to study of the effect of seed inoculation with PGPR on nitrogen and phosphorus use efficiency of spring wheat in different levels of nitrogen and phosphorus fertilizers, an experimental was conducted at the Research Farm of Mohageh Ardabili University, Ardabil, Iran during 2012 year. The combination of nitrogen fertilizer in three levels (0, 40 and 80 kg N/ha as urea) and phosphorus f...

In 2007 Jedwab and Parker proposed [10] that the natural viewpoint for a Golay complementary sequence is as a projection of a multi-dimensional Golay array. In 2008 Fiedler, Jedwab and Parker [5] used this viewpoint to show how to construct and enumerate all known 2-phase Golay sequences of length 2, starting from two sources of Golay seed pairs. The first source of seed pairs is the trivial Go...

The purpose of this study was to examine the evaluating the potential of seed priming techniques in improving germination and early seedling growth of Aeluropus Macrostachys under salinity stress condition. This study was performed at the Islamic Azad University in Baft city which is located in southeast of kerman province (2250 meters above the sea level, 92º 17 N latitude and 56º 36 E longitu...

in order to investigate the effects of plant growth promoting bacteria on growth characteristic of wheat, an experiment was conducted at the research greenhouse, faculty of agriculture, ferdowsi university of mashhad, iran, in year 2009. a completely randomized design based on factorial arrangement (3×6) with three replications was used. the first factor consisted of three cultivars of wheat (c...
