to determine sugar content and root yield variation of new sugar beet hybrids under different irrigation levels, an experiment was carried out at zarghan agricultural research station offars agricultural and natural resources research center, shiraz, iran. the study was conducted as split block based on a randomized complete block design with three replications for two years, 2009-10, using lin...

in order to investigate the effects of boron, zinc and sulfur on yield and fatty acid composition of rapeseed(hyola 401 cultivar), an experiment was conducted in rasht province in 2011. a field experiment withcompletely randomized block design was performed with eight treatments in three replications.maximum grain yield (4157.6 kg ha-1) and grain oil (1770.2 kg ha-1) was obtained from s+b+zntre...

background: as we all know, sperm has the capacity to take up foreign dna, therefore, sperm mediated gen transfer can be an inexpensive and simple method in animal transgenesis in various species. however, there is not sufficient evidence of dna uptake by ovine spermatozoa. objectives: the purpose of the present study was to examine the uptake of human lysozyme gene contained plasmid (pegfp-ire...

in the course of the present study, samples were taken from the non-defoliant strain of verticillium dahliae (ss-4) from infected olive groves in toshan area in southern gorgan. root-knot nematode, meloidogyne javanica, was recovered from infested olive seedlings and after identification was reaned on tomato seedlings cv. rutgers. during the study, one-year-old seedlings of olive cultivars zard...

introduction morphological segmentation of land surface is commonly used for land surface allocation in management and environmental sciences. the first step in assigning a piece of land to a specific application is to divide it into homogeneous morphological segments. traditional field-based geomorphological mapping can be time consuming, costly, and challenging when large areas, particularly ...

introductionair pollution is the introduction of particulates, biological molecules, or other harmful materials into the earth's atmosphere, possibly causing disease, death to humans, damage to other living organisms such as food crops, or the natural or built environment. the atmosphere is a complex natural gaseous system that is essential to support life on planet earth. stratospheric oz...

a simple and mild procedure for the conversion of anilines into aryl isocyanates is described using the 3-hydroxypropylammonium acetate (hpaa) ionic liquid as a novel and efficient media has been explored in the synthesis of aryl isocyanates from the reaction of substituted urea with sodium nitrite in a water immiscible solvent. this ionic liquid can be easily recovered and reused for many time...

field experiments were conducted in amirkabir sugarcane agro-industry (khuzestan province, iran) farms to evaluate the efficacy of integrated chemical and mechanical methods in controlling weeds. experiments were carried out in a split plot-randomized complete blocks design with four replications. the main plot consisted of four mechanical treatments, namely: hilling up, sweep cultivator, disc ...
