drought is one of the most important environmental factors which limit the growth of woody plants. iran is located in arid and semi-arid area therefore the growth and cultivation of ornamental trees and shrubs were limited. for this purpose, effect of foliar-applied salicylic acid and/or spermidine (0, 100, 500 and 1000 µmol) on reduce drought stress injuries of one-year seedlings ofosage orang...

to study the effects of different levels of water stress and nitrogen fertilizer on seed yield and yield components of two common bean genotypes (phaseolus vulgaris), an experiment in a split plot factorial based on crbd with four replications was conducted at the research farm of university of tehran (karaj-iran) in 2010. water stress treatments as the main factor included normal irrigation (6...

common bacterial blight (cbb) of bean caused by xanthomonas axonopodis pv. phaseoli is a seriously important disease that adversely affects the quantity and quality of seed. cultivation of resistant cultivars is the most effective method of  the disease control. to identify disease resistant genotypes of selected beans, an experiment was conducted in  agriculture and natural resources research ...

drought and salinity are the most important environmental stresses that are causing adverse effects on natural ecosystems. there are species among iranian natural germplasm that are resistant to environmental harsh conditions. restoring of degraded ecosystems, promoting of biodiversity and increasing of species richness will provide by identifying of these species. almond species with broad eco...

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 ...

in order to study the effect of different levels of nitrogen and sulfur fertilizers on yield, yield components, content of some elements, qualitative and quantitative traits of spring safflower (serin cv.) an experiment was conducted at agriculture and natural resource research station of ardabil in 2008. this experiment was carried out in factorial experiment in completely randomized block des...

the main objective of this study is to investigate the production factors productivity in large manufacturing sub-sectors. for this purpose, using statistical data for period 1972-2004, we have tried to study and analyze the trend and level of production factors productivity (partial and total productivity) in each sub-sectors classified according to isic two digits code. the average and margin...
