In order to determine yield stability of 20 durum wheat genotypes, a trial was carried as randomized complete block design with four replications in four years during  2009- 2014 in Sarab-Changae station of Khorramabad, Iran. Analysis of combine variance showed that environment, genotype and genotype × environment interaction were significant at 1% probability level. Variance analysis of additi...

Grapevine (Vitis vinifera L.) is a clonally propagated major fruit crop. In grapevine, identification of genotypes with amplographical features is often based on mature plant characteristics that may be affected by environmental conditions. This approach lacks objectivity and reliability. Recently, molecular markers have proved to be supplementary techniques to analyze genetic diversity and exa...

although there are studies on pragmatic assessment, to date, literature has been almost silent about native and non-native english raters’ criteria for the assessment of efl learners’ pragmatic performance. focusing on this topic, this study pursued four purposes. the first one was to find criteria for rating the speech acts of apology and refusal in l2 by native and non-native english teachers...

In order to determine the genotype × environment (GE) interactions and yield stability, an experiment was conducted with 10 promising genotypes of rice and two control varieties (Shiroudi and Fajr) in four regions of Mazandaran (Amol , Babol, Sari and Tonkabon) using randomized complete blocks design with four replications during two cropping seasons (2012-2013). Analysis of variance showed sig...

the major aim of this study was to investigate the relationship between iq, eq and test format in the light of test fairness considerations. this study took this relationship into account to see if people with different eq and iq performed differently on different test formats. to this end, 90 advanced learners of english form college of ferdowsi university of mashhad were chosen. they were ask...

the main objective in sampling is to select a sample from a population in order to estimate some unknown population parameter, usually a total or a mean of some interesting variable. a simple way to take a sample of size n is to let all the possible samples have the same probability of being selected. this is called simple random sampling and then all units have the same probability of being ch...
