In order to investigate physiological and biochemical changes of wheat under stress residue of Imazethapyr herbicide (Imazethapyr), an experiment was conducted in a completely randomized design with four replications in greenhouse conditions at university of Mohaghegh Ardebili. The treatments consisted of five dose levels of herbicide Imazethapyr (0, 0.011, 0.022, 0.033 and 0.044 micrograms of ...

in order to study the effect of water deficit effects on agronomic characteristics of sunflower ‎hybrids, three separate experiments were conducted as‏ ‏randomized complete block design with ‎three replications at the research field of seed and plant improvement institute - karaj. the first ‎experiment conducted at optimum conditions and plants were irrigated after 60 mm evaporation ‎from evapo...

partial rootzone drying (prd) is a new irrigation technique which improves water use efficiency without significant yield reduction in grape. to study the effects of partial rootzone drying and green pruning on yield and yield quality of thompson seedless grape a split plot experiment with randomized complete block design and three replications was conducted. the experiment was performed in tak...

This study was undertaken to identify morphological changes in young seedlings of 5 Iranian almond species (Prunus dulcis, P. eburnea, P. eleagnifolia, P. haussknechti, and P. scoparia) under polyethylene glycol-induced drought stress. Drought stress caused a significant reduction in plant growth parameters such as fresh and dry weights of plant organs, leaf number, total leaf area, and leaf re...

Various low-molecular-weight chitosans such as the 21-kDa, 46-kDa, and 120-kDa chitosans obtained by enzymatic hydrolysis of a high-molecular-weight chitosan (average molecular weight, 650 kDa) had low viscosity and were water soluble. We examined the antitumor activity of various water-soluble chitosans with different molecular weights in sarcoma 180-bearing mice. A 21-kDa water-soluble chitos...

results theophylline-treated rats showed mda level elevation and gpx activity reduction. quercetin treatment improved heart conditions and resulted in a significant reduction in mda levels and elevation in gpx activity. moreover, co-administration of quercetin and theophylline increased the heart weight significantly. furthermore, histophatological study showed no changes in the treated groups....

this work analyzes the effects of satureja khuzestanica essential oil (skeo) on the thyroid and antioxidant system, assessed by measuring levels of tri-iodothyronine (t3), thyroxine (t4), thyroid-stimulating hormone (tsh), malondialdehyde (mda), reduced glutathione (gsh), and glutathione peroxidase (gpx) activity. forty adult male sprague dawley rats (225 ± 25 g) were divided into five equal gr...
