Soluble solids concentration (SSC) is a reference index that typically used to quantify soluble sugars, the most abundant constituents of stone fruit flesh dry matter when approaching maturity. Dry (DMC) another parameter has been often associated with quality. This study investigated relationship SSC and DMC in fourteen cultivars at harvest. were measured physiological maturity peach, nectarin...

the percentage of fat in liver wet and dry matter, liver moist and dry matter and their relationship were investigated based on species, sex and age of 384 slaughtered animals including 114 cows, 100 buffaloes, 147 sheep and 23 goats from 2008 to 2010 in urmia, iran. mean percentage of fat in liver wet and dry matter, and liver dry matter in cows were 3.6%, 1.1%, 29.7%, buffaloes were 5.3%, 1.5...

To investigate a model to simulate wheat dry matter accumulation, three wheat cultivars with different tillering abilities were grown at three densities each in a field experiment. Five simulation models with high correlation coefficients for relative dry matter accumulation were established by the method of normalized. Among these models, the Richards equation was the best in fitting and forec...

Episodes of water deficit (WD) during the crop cycle of tomato may negatively impact plant growth and fruit yield, but they may also improve fruit quality. Moreover, a moderate WD may induce a plant "memory effect" which is known to stimulate plant acclimation and defenses for upcoming stress episodes. The objective of this study was to analyze the positive and negative impacts of repeated epis...

a field study was conducted to evaluate the agronomic response of eight isolines of cv. clark on a clay loam soil (at karaj-iran, 35048´) to four plant population densities of 11.3, 18.5, 68.5, and 103.4 plants per square metre. significant yield increase was obtained as a result of higher plant density. differences among the cv. clark isolines were significant (p

abstract the harvesting time and storage conditions of olive fruit are effective factors on the quality and quantity of oil. the harvesting time of olive is different in each area and it depends on climatic conditions.this investigation was carried out to assess the impact of harvesting time on olive oil quality and quantity frome two olive varieties cultivated in gorgan region. for this reason...

kochia is a halophyte plant and is a good source of forage for livestock under saline irrigation. in order to investigate the salinity effect on morphological and forage characteristics of kochia, an experiment was conducted. three saline waters (5.2, 10.5 and 23.1 ds m-1) and three kochia ecotypes (birjand, borujerd and sabzevar) were allocated as main and sub plots, respectively, in a split p...
