An understanding of the complex processes that occur during firing is necessary to control the quality of tortilla chips. Quantitative information is needed to describe the rate of oil absorption into the chips during the process. In this study, tortilla chips were processed under different conditions: (1) baking time, (2) fying oil temperature, (3) particle size distribution, and (4) oil quali...

this study setout to investigate the effect of wheat residue, tillage, and nitrogen fertilizer management on some agronomic traits of soybean as a split split plot based on randomized complete block design with three replications. the main plots included wheat residue management: collecting and leaving residue and sub plot included tillage (without tillage and conventional tillage), and the sub...

introduction obtaining varieties with acceptable yield and tolerant to different arid and semi-arid climate condition of iran is an important goal in canola breeding programs. selection of genotypes base on one or more traits without regarding to correlation between them, could biases the expected results. therefore, identifying of genetic correlation among traits especially in environmental st...

Remote sensing has shown promise for predicting grain protein content for winter cereals, with satellite image data acquired near flowering, being significantly correlated with grain protein of wheat and barley crops. The use of commercially available satellite or airborne imagery to map grain protein content would allow growers and marketers the ability to evaluate crop performance and provide...

Few studies have examined dietary patterns in relation to cardiovascular risk factors in Asian populations, particularly in India. The present study was undertaken to explore dietary patterns in a general urban Bengalee population of women in West Bengal, India, and their association with cardiovascular risk factors. We performed a cross-sectional study of 701 women (aged 35 years and above) se...

Rapeseed (Brassica napus L.) is one of most important oilseed crops in the world. There are now various rapeseed cultivars in nature that differ in their seed oil content because they vary in oil-content alleles and there are high-oil alleles among the high-oil rapeseed cultivars. For these experiments, we generated doubled haploid (DH) lines derived from the cross between the specially high-oi...
