BACKGROUND Once considered as the main public health problem in developed countries, obesity has become a major problem throughout the world and developing countries, like Iran, are joining the global obesity pandemic. We determined the prevalence of overweight, obesity, and hypertension in a large cohort of Iranians and compared age-adjusted rates with the rates in the US. METHODS Golestan C...

Richard Stone wrote a report regarding selling theses and research articles in Iran. There are noteworthy points in this report which truly disturb the Iranian scientific community, but the present report is not the whole truth about the Iranian scientific community. Iran's scientific infrastructure was destroyed in the eight-year imposed war by Saddam Hossein in a way that production of Irania...

Due to highly consumption of extensive wild germplasm of Allium hirtifolium Boiss (Mooseer) in food and medicinal industry, exploration and domestication process have been done in Golestan province (Gorgan). Economic productions of domesticated Persian Shallot plants need to be improved through breeding process. The successes of domesticated accessions improvement program depend on the availabl...

Shallot productivity relies on diverse environmental conditions, including soil fertility. Compost is an organic material that crucial for the improvement of health and amendment could be employed shallot to improve its growth productivity. This study aims investigate effect 4 different composts amendments, processed with bioactivators, (Bima–Brebes variety), dynamic culturable microbes, nutrie...

Abstract Shallot ( Allium ascolonicum L), belonging to the genus are propagated vegetatively through layered bulbs. This research aimed improve quality of shallots by eliminating OYDV, SLDV viruses meristematic tissue combined with antiviral Ribavirin. The was conducted in IVEGRI Tissue Culture Laboratory from April August 2018. Research materials included infected shallot bulbs Bima Brebes var...

Shallot is one of the tuber crops used in human life worldwide. Lembah Palu variety shallot (LPVS) best raw material for fried industry. The main problem that tubers have no standard harvest age and storage duration to support these plants' germination early growth. Therefore, shallots' growth productivity are influenced by tubers' viability vigor. This study aimed investigate give vigor tubers...

This study aims to analyse the effects combination of compound fertilizer and rhizobacteria sources on agronomic characters shallot in off season. The was conducted Sleman, Yogyakarta from February June 2019. experiment arranged a R C B D with three replications. treatment consisted between (AS) first factor dosage (150, 250 350 kg ha-1) 5% different (rhizobacteria bamboo, glyricidae peanut) ea...

Summary In order to establish the normative curves for BMD in Iranian individuals, we measured BMDs at the lumbar spine and femoral regions of 760 women and 632 men using dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry. This study provides a baseline normative for Iranian individuals. BMD values of Iranian subjects were generally lower than those of the American population. Introduction In order to establish ...
