In order to evaluate canopy and organs temperature depression (TD) under heat stress conditions and the effects of plant morphology on organs temperature depression and their association with grain yield, two field experiments were conducted using six wheat cultivars (Behrang, Chamran, Kauz, Koohdasht, Karim and Montana) planted on three dates (early, optimum, late) in 2014-2015 and 2015 -2016 ...

High grain protein content (GPC) is a frequent target of wheat breeding programmes because of its positive effect on bread and pasta quality. A wild wheat allele at the Gpc-B1 locus with a significant impact on this trait was identified previously. The precise mapping of several senescence-related traits in a set of tetraploid recombinant substitution lines (RSLs) segregating for Gpc-B1 is repo...

abstract- the evaluation of leaf area and leaf nutritional value is important for crop growth modeling and estimations of its performance. the purpose of this study was to use image processing techniques to develop an economical method to ease the assessment of nutrient status and leaf area (la) of plants and to compare the outcomes of this method with linear models. leaf area and leaf chloroph...

Even though foreign language anxiety (FLA) has been studied in second online learning more generally (Fondo & Jacobetty, 2019; Hurd, 2007; McNeil, 2014; Pichette, 2009), there is a lack of research on how FLA may affect university students’ academic engagement while studying through L2 English/French as medium instruction. The present study explored the effects with during COVID-19 pandemic. We...

To evaluate the effects of O3 on the net photosynthetic rate in flag leaves of rice (Oryza sativa L.) based on stomatal O3 flux and reactive oxygen species (ROS) scavenging enzyme activities, the Japanese rice cultivar Koshihikari was exposed to O3 for 1 month after heading in O3-exposure chambers. During the exposure period, rice plants were exposed to charcoal-filtered air or O3 at 60 or 100 ...

abstract this research was conducted in toroq experimental field station, mashhad, iran, for two successive cropping seasons (2000-2002), using split plot experimental design based on complete randomized blocks with three replications. moisture stress treatments (at seven levels) were assigned to main plots, including: d1 ( full irrigation), d2 (no irrigation from one-leaf to double ridge) stag...

background: free-living amoebae (fla) are a group of ubiquitous protozoan, which are distrib­uted in the natural and artificial environment sources. the main aim of the current study was to identify the presence of fla in the recreational hot springs of sarein in ardebil province of iran. methods: seven recreational hot springs were selected in sarein city and 28 water samples (four from each h...

The survey was carried out to investigate the presence of potentially pathogenic free-living amoebae (FLA) during flood in Chiang Mai, Thailand in 2011. From different crisis flood areas, seven water samples were collected and tested for the presence of amoebae using culture and molecular methods. By monoxenic culture, FLA were detected from all samples at 37 °C incubation. The FLA growing at 3...

This paper proposes an innovative procedure of finding efficient facility location–allocation (FLA) schemes, integrating data envelopment analysis (DEA) and a multi-objective programming (MOP) model methodology. FLA decisions provide a basic foundation for designing efficient supply chain network in many practical applications. The procedure proposed in this paper would be applied to the FLA pr...
