drought stress is one of the important environmental factors reducing grain yield of plants in arid and semiarid regions. study the effect of water deficit stress on yield, water use efficiency and harvest index of sesame varieties, this experiment was conducted as a split plot based on a randomized complete block design with three replications, at agriculture and natural resources research cen...

In this article our objective is to obtain steady state characteristics of shunt, series, and separately excited DC motors coupled with a centrifugal water pump supplied through a step-up, step-down, and cuk converter from photovoltaic generator. We assume that there are no storage batteries and, of course, the system must operate on maximum utilization i.e. maximum water must be pumped. It is ...

OBJECTIVE Based on adult data, a peak cortisol response ≥500 nmol/l to insulin-induced hypoglycaemia constitutes a normal. Age-specific reference ranges for basal morning cortisol have been developed for clinical use in the paediatric population. Such reference ranges are not clearly established for peak cortisol responses to insulin-induced hypoglycaemia despite limited data suggesting an effe...

AIM To evaluate the clinical applicability of the water-drinking test in treatment-naive primary open-angle glaucoma patients. METHODS Twenty newly diagnosed primary open-angle glaucoma patients and 20 healthy controls were enrolled in this prospective study. The water-drinking test was performed at baseline and 6 weeks and 3 months after prostaglandin analog treatment. Peak and fluctuation o...

, present study was performed in order to determine effects of different amounts of irrigation water, plant density and planting pattern on yield, yield components and water use efficiency (wue) of corn, variety single cross 700 (700ksc) using drip irrigation systems (tape) , in the research station of islamabadgharb in two consecutive years (2011-2012). the project was in the form of split blo...

water scarcity in arid and semi-arid climate of iran has made deficit irrigation as a strategy for optimal water use and conservation in agricultural sector. this study aimed at evaluating the effects of water-deficit stress and n fertilizer levels on sugar beet performance. the study was conducted in split block design based on randomized complete block design arrangement. the row factor consi...

the comparison of growth processes and fluorescent properties of cdznte semiconductor quantum dots that are synthesized in different concentrations of zn2+ in water are discussed in this paper. the samples are characterized through absorbtion (uv) and photoluminescence spectra (pl). the results show that when the reaction time is prolonged, the absorption peak and fluorescent emission peak pres...
