ABSTRACT- To investigate the effect of draught stress on water relations, stomatal density, chlorophyll content and yield of rapeseed, an experiment was done with four levels of drought stress including L1 (Field Capacity, FC), L2 (70% Available Water Content, AWC), L3 (50% AWC), and L4 (30% AWC), within three growth stages- including stem elongation (T1), onset of flowering (T2) and silique fo...

various researches have been carried out about benefits of accounting information and their influence on decision making of financial statements users. for example, many researches have examined the relationship between accounting variables and stock returns or stock price. this study determines and compares the relative and incremental content of accounting variables, too. for this purpose, th...

osmotic stress is one of the major factors that significantly reduce yields in dry areas. plants respond to this abiotic stress at physiological and molecular levels. many genes are induced under stress conditions by transcription factors. dehydration responsive element binding (dreb) protein is a subfamily of ap2/erf transcription factors which control expression of many osmotic stress-inducib...

environmental pollution consists of different types of pollutants in air, soil, and water. due to the fact that plants can respond to environmental pollution, they can be used as bio-indicators for environmental monitoring. air pollution in areas with oil and gas refineries nearby is an important problem. this study aims to survey the effects of gas refinery air pollutants on conocarpus erectus...

Water can be a major component of aerosol particles, also serving as a medium for aqueous-phase reactions. In this study, a novel method is presented to calculate the aerosol liquid water content at high relative humidity based on measurements of aerosol hygroscopic growth factor, particle number size distribution and relative humidity in the Haze in China (HaChi) summer field campaign (July–Au...

A plant’s photosynthetic potential is directly proportional to the quantity of chlorophyll present in the leaf Measuring a crop’s physiological parameters provides information tissue. Rapid estimates of photosynthetic potential can for interpreting its response to the environment. Remote sensing is quickly becoming recognized as a valuable tool that has the potential be important for studies of...

this research was conducted at the agricultural college of tehran university in 2005 to analyze the effect of use of cytokinin as well as of calcium on durability of rose (illona cultivar). cuttings were taken from rose biennial mother plants, then treated by cytokinin of 0, 0.1, 1and10 micromole per liter and calcium of 0,10,20 and 30 milimole per liter. cut flowers, after harvest, were kept i...
