allelopathy is one of the main factors limiting the plants growth. the present study investigated the effect of aqueous extract of leaves and fruit of artemisia sieberi that is an important species for rangeland rehabilitation on seed germination and seedling growth of three alfalfa species (medicago sativa cv. nikshahri, medicago polymorpha and medicago scutellata cv. robinson) in laboratory a...

Application of existing and novel management techniques can alter traditional livestock grazing patterns and significantly improve the sustainability of arid rangelands. Livestock often congregate and heavily graze riparian areas and other sensitive rangeland, while abundant forage remains in other areas. Increasing the uniformity of grazing can help protect fisheries, wildlife habitat, and oth...

Drought is common in rangeland environments and an understanding of its impacts on the structure and function of rangeland ecosystems is paramount for developing effective management strategies. This research was the second of a series of studies investigating the impacts of varying seasonal droughts on northern Great Plains rangelands. Research was conducted on native rangeland during the 1998...

in order to evaluate the effects of drought stress and spraying of salysilic acid and chitosan on photosynthetic pigments and antioxidant enzymes of safflower an experiement was conducted as split plot randomized complete block design at the zabol university research farm in zabol, south iran during 2012. treatments were drought stress at three levels; irrigation when the soil moisture level dr...

We examine relationships between landscape scale measurements of rangeland complexity and cattle stocking rates in Kansas. Rangeland complexity was characterized using Advanced Very High Resolution Radiometer (AVHRR) satellite imagery and the USGS National Land Cover Dataset (NLCD). Satellite Normalized Difference Vegetation Index (NDVI) values were summed over the 2002 growing-season and then ...

background and objectives: the quality of cakes made of wheat flour depends on the quantity and quality of its gluten proteins however, these proteins may have side effects for some people, including the patients with celiac, and the only way to cure this disease is to take a lifelong gluten-free diet. materials and methods: this research aims to produce gluten- free cake by using rice flour an...
