the major purpose of this study was to develop the translation teacher competency test (ttct) and examine its construct and predictive validity. the present study was conducted in two phases: a qualitative phase as well as a quantitative phase. in the first phase of the study, the author attempted to find out the major areas of competency required for an academic translation teacher. the second...

In order to evaluate the effect of water deficit stress on yield and physiological characteristics of some Iranian melon accessions, an experiment was carried out in a split plot based on randomized complete block design with three replicates in research filed of university of Zanjan during 2015. Treatments consisted arrangement of three irrigation levels (100, 70 and 40% ETc) and 7 Iranian mel...

abstract ion selective electrodes (ises) are electrochemical sensors that respond selectivity to the activity of ionic species. an ion-selective electrode is an electrochemical device that uses a thin selective membrane or film as the recognition element, and is an electrochemical half-cell equivalent to other half-cells of the zeroth (inert metal in a redox electrolyte). in common methods o...

Abstract: Enhanced leaf proline, soluble sugar and soluble protein contents with sever salinity stress can improve stomatal conductance and Relative water content. This can inhibit dry matter depletion due to salinity stress, so can be used for screening of safflower cultivars under salinity stress. To evaluate the changes in leaf proline, soluble sugars, glycinebetaine and protein conte...

learning a second or foreign language requires the manipulation of four main skills, namely, listening, reading, speaking, and writing which lead to effective communication. it is obvious that vocabulary is an indispensible part of any communication, so without a vocabulary, no meaningful communication can take place and meaningful communication relies heavily on vocabulary. one fundamental fac...

Water deficit stress is the main limiting factor of crop growth and yield in arid and semi-arid environments. Hyssop (Hyssopus officinalis L.) is one of the most important medicinal plants that have numerous medical uses. In order to study the effect of drought stress on physiological and morphological traits of Hyssop, an experiment based on randomized completely design was conducted with four...
