in ordet to investigate economic efficiency of five cultural systems in sugar beet crop, including high input, medium input  low input , high  and medium inputs without 3 times irrigation after emergence, an experiment was conducted over  two years  (2002-2003) in agricultural and natural resources research center of khorasan. these systems were analysed by marginal analysis and  linear program...

The following is an observation on the survival of dry cultures of pneumococci and streptococci for seven years under unusual and adverse conditions of storage. Dry cultures of 27 pneumococci and 10 streptococci prepared by the Division of Laboratories and Research of the Department of Health of New York (Wadsworth, 1939) were given to the author on 17th July, 1940. All the cultures were examin...

Abstract. We study (i) traveling wave solutions, (ii) the formation and spatial spread of synchronous oscillations, and (iii) the effects of variations of threshold in a system of integro–differential equations which describe the activity of large scale networks of excitatory neurons on spatially extended domains. The independent variables are the activity level u of a population of excitatory ...

A general strategy for fabricating thick, optically flat photopolymer recording media with high dynamic range (M/#) that exhibit low levels of recording-induced Bragg detuning for holographic data storage is presented. In particular, media with M/# values as high as 42 in 1-mm-thick formats are obtained. We believe that these results are the first demonstration of a holographic storage medium w...

We report a first-principles study of hydrogen storage media consisting of calcium atoms and graphene-based nanostructures. We find that Ca atoms prefer to be individually adsorbed on the zigzag edge of graphene with a Ca-Ca distance of 10 A without clustering of the Ca atoms, and up to six H(2) molecules can bind to a Ca atom with a binding energy of approximately 0.2 eV/H(2). A Ca-decorated z...

Transverse thin cell layer sections excised from in vitro scales of Lilium ledebourii were cultured on Murashige and Skoog (MS) medium supplemented with various plant growth regulators (PGRs) at different concentrations. Although, bulblets were produced on PGRfree MS medium during organogenesis, addition of 0.25 mg l-1 6-benzyladenine or 5.0 mg l-1 indole-3-acetic acid to the medium increased t...

Objective: Pumpkin (Cucurbita pepo L.) seed oil mainly consists of saturated and unsaturated fatty acids. Previously, it was reported that oral administration of pumpkin seed oil (PSO) improved hair growth in male pattern alopecia. This study aimed to evalua...

The amount and sources of carbon and nitrogen used to produce Bacillus thuringiensis (Berliner)-based biopesticide may influence the quality of the final product. The objective of this research was to test different levels of carbon and nitrogen: medium 1 - 1.5% maize glucose + 0.5% soy flour, medium 2 - 3.0% maize glucose + 1.0% soy flour, medium 3 - 1.0% maize glucose + 3.0% soy flour and med...
