abstract in order to investigate the freezing tolerance of field grown fennel (fueniculum vulgare mill) under controlled conditions, a factorial experiment based on completely randomized design was conducted with three replications in agricultural college, ferdowsi university of mashhad in 2004. treatments were two fennel ecotypes (khorasan and kerman), two planting dates (oct 8th and 29th ) an...

Meiosis is unusual among cell divisions in shuffling genetic material by crossovers among homologous chromosomes and partitioning the genome into haploid gametes. Crossovers are critical for chromosome segregation in most eukaryotes, but are also an important factor in evolution, as they generate novel genetic combinations. The molecular mechanisms that underpin meiotic recombination and chromo...

dust is a common atmospheric phenomenon in iran especially in central arid regions.  this severely affects environment as well as resident’s health. among the results of this phenomenon are respiratory diseases, bash radiation, accelerated soil erosion, desertification and degradation of ecosystems. some dusts are originated from local desert conditions but adjacency to neighboring countries de...

Temperature was measured in the left ventricle, aorta, liver, brain, lung, bone marrow, kidney, and spontaneous solid tumors in dogs undergoing whole body hyperthermia in a radiant heat device. Rectal temperature was found to be a satisfactory indicator of systemic arterial temperature during plateau temperature conditions but rectal temperature underestimated arterial temperature during heatin...

[1] A temporal visible near‐infrared (VIS‐NIR) spectral variation was observed from Tyrone yellowish salty soils based on seven periodic Pancam 13 filter observations made by the Spirit rover. The major change was the reduction of spectral slope from 434 nm to 753 nm. Based on the results from a set of systematic laboratory experiments on the stability field and phase transition pathway of typi...

This paper refers to an experiment of SO2 absorption to the three different sorbents: calcium-oxide (CaO), calcium-carbonate (CaCO3) and dolomite (CaMg(CO3)2). In the reactor under the condition of oxidation atmosphere with the mass of sorbent (sample) of 100 g with fractional composition of 500-700µm, the gas temperatur...

In resting man, deep body temperature is maintained at about 37-380C. The existence of such a steady temperature indicates that the rates of metabolic heat production is balanced -by the rate of heat loss to the environment. At rest the main challenge to the regulation of body temperature comes from changes in environmental conditions. At low ambient temperatures, especially if this is coupled ...

According to the temperature-size rule (TSR), ectotherms developing under cold conditions experience slower growth as juveniles but reach a larger size at maturity. Whether temperature alone causes this phenomenon is unknown, but oxygen limitation can play a role in the temperature-size relationship. Oxygen may become limited under warm conditions when the resulting higher metabolism creates a ...

Based on ultraviolet spectral net analyte signals, this research has studied the determination of the two effective components, sulfamethoxazole (SMZ) and trimethoprim (TMP), contained in compound sulfamethoxazole tablets in acid environment. The linear ranges of SMZ and TMP were 0.48-7.84 microg/ml (the regression correlation coefficient r = 0.9981) and 0.12-1.5 microg/ml (r = 0.9986), the cor...
