in order to study the effect of planting date on duration of phenological periods in wheat cultivars, a randomized compelet block design experiment with four replications was conducted in gorgan university of agricultural science and natural resources research station. the factors were eight sowing dates (14 december, 20 january, 18 february, 20 march, 16 april, 21 may, 30 july and 6 august) an...

Multiple choice questions are a convenient and popular means of testing beginning students in programming courses. However, they are qualitatively different from exam questions. This paper reports on a study into which types of multiple choice programming questions discriminate well on a final exam, and how well they predict exam scores.

evaluation of soil microorganisms and their beneficial relationships among ecosystem components is one of new topic in soil resource management for ensuring sustainable agriculture. in order to investigating effects of trichoderma spp. and different organic manures on improvement of growth and development in soybean [glycine max (l.) merril.], an experiment was conducted at glasshouse in sari a...

The circadian rhythmicity of adult emergences in a population of Drosophila pupae has been the object of considerable study.1-16 The facts that the experimental system is a population and that the act of emergence occurs only once in the life of the individual have been responsible for some confusion in the literature.8-10 Harker9 appears to deny the existence of a circadian oscillation in the ...

Replacement of single missing teeth with an implant-supported restoration is recognized as a highly successful treatment. An impression technique for peri-implant soft-tissue replication in an anterior zone is described. The technique involves use of an interim restoration as an abutment for the final impression. This allows accurate duplication of the soft tissues and fabrication of a final re...

The use of immediate implant placement and immediate provisionalization techniques are paramount to the maintenance for aesthetic hard and soft tissue structures. This is particularly important when implant-supported restorations are utilized in the aesthetic zone. A purpose of the custom-fabricated provisional abutment and restoration is to guide the hard and soft tissue response during healin...

in order to study the possibility of control of heterodera schachtii  in sugarbeet fields through integration of rotation with non- host crops and resistant catch crops and their effects on quantitative and qualitative traits of sugarbeet, this study was started from 2002 for three years in esfahan province. the experiments were carried out in a randomized complete block design with eight treat...

Real-time MRI has become an increasingly useful tool in articulatory studies, especially in examining posterior regions of the vocal tract. Previous work on Brazilian Portugese has shown the emergence of coda consonants following word-final nasal vowels, though this has been limited to the discussion of front vowels and coda emergence in anterior regions of the vocal tract. We present rt-MRI ev...
