Insects with over 30,000 aquatic species are known as very successful arthropods in freshwater habitats. Some of them are applied as biological indicators for water quality control, as well as the main food supply for fishes and amphibians. The faunistic studies are the basic step in entomological researches; the current study was carried out emphasizing on the fauna of aquatic insects in Karaj...

This experiment was conducted, to study the effect of planting time and planting density on savory (Satureja sahendica Bornm.) in 2012 in Alborz Research Station, Research Institute of Forests and Rangelands, Karaj, Iran. The experiment was carried out in split plot in time in the form of a randomized complete block design with three replicates. The main plots were planting times in two levels ...

the experiment was aimed at investigating the effects of defoliation (i. e. amanipulation of source size) at different times and with different intensities on yield, grain protein content and remobilization of dry matter from shoot to grain under various levels of soil moisture and nitrogen in winter wheat. two separate field experiments were conducted simultaneously under water stress vs irrig...

sustainable range management needs the accurate estimation yield and determining of grazing capacity in rangelands. it is easy to obtain yield estimation with indirect methods. for this purpose, the relation between cover and forage yield of range species were studied in steppic rangelands of yazd. measurements of cover and forage yield were carried out with plot area and clipping and weighting...

beet necrotic yellow vein virus (bnyvv) or rhizomania is one of the most important and destructive diseases of sugar beet (beta vulgaris l.) in the world. this disease is considered as a limiting factor of sugar beet production in iran such as khorasan, fars, west azerbaijan, isfahan and kermanshah. in order to develop of resistant variety, as simple and easy methods for disease control, a germ...

to determine sugar content and root yield variation of new sugar beet hybrids under different irrigation levels, an experiment was carried out at zarghan agricultural research station offars agricultural and natural resources research center, shiraz, iran. the study was conducted as split block based on a randomized complete block design with three replications for two years, 2009-10, using lin...

water is the most important factor for agriculture development in iran. accordingly the optimal consumptione of water is very important. using pressurized irrigation system is one of the methods to improve agricultural water management. the objecttives of this research were to compare two irrigation methods of furrow and trickle irrigation systems impacts on quantity and quality characters of s...

in order to assess the performance of two soybean cultivars produced in two regions including karaj and moghan to drought stress at reproductive stages and also the impact of drought stress on yield and its components, oil and protein percent, an experiment was conducted as a split factorial based on complete randomized block design in three replications in agriculture faculty of tarbiat modare...
