to evaluate symbiotic effectiveness and salt tolerance of sinorhizobium meliloti strains, 50 rhizobial strains were isolated from root nodules of medicago sativa cultivated in tehran and zanjan fields. under n-free conditions, the symbiotic effectiveness of different sinorhizobium meliloti strains of bami cultivar were evaluated under greenhouse conditions using 50 sinorhizobium meliloti strain...

the aim of this research was to evaluate the effect of one session of exhaustive exercise with low intensity (55-65% vo2max), moderate intensity (65-75% vo2max) and high intensity (75-85% vo2max) on adiponectin in active women. for this purpose, 30 healthy women (mean age 21.6 years, weigh 59.7+3.35 kg, vo2max 39.1+0.58 ml/kg/min, no history of cardiovascular diseases and diabetes) were selecte...

nanosilica periodic acid (nano-spia) is found to be a new, powerful, and reusable heterogeneous catalyst for the rapid synthesis of 2-naphtholazo dyes via diazotization of aromatic amines and followsazo coupling with 2-naphthol under solvent-free conditions at room temperature by grinding. eco-friendly, heterogeneous reaction conditions, high stability of diazonium salt, simple experimental pro...

abstract: salicylic acid is a phytohormone with phenolic nature which has been proved its role in increasing plant resistance to biotic and abiotic stress in several studies. this study was performed in order to investigation of interaction between 0, 0.5 and 1.5 mm concentrations of salicylic acid, as a seed pretreatment and different levels of drought stress (100, 75, 50 and 25 percent of fie...
