Body composition and fatty acid profile of the body tissue of Caspian kutum (Rutilus frisii kutum) fish larvae were determined from fertilized egg to 50 days post hatching (dph). Feeding with rotifer started from day 3 to day 7 thereafter they were fed with dry food until the end of the experiment. The changes observed in lipid content and the decrease in lipid levels during larval ontogeny ref...

To examine the effect of including oil in diets on early lactating productive performance parameters including; dry matter intake, milk production and components, body condition score, body weight and negative energy balance; twenty multiparous Holstein cows were randomly assigned to the experimental diets from 21 days before predicted calving time to 50 days in milk. Treatments including 1) co...

Twenty-four multiparous Holstein cows were used in six 4×4 Latin squares with 28day periods to determine inclusion rates for wet corn gluten feed (WCGF) in diets for lactating dairy cows. Cows were housed in a tie-stall barn and fed diets to meet or exceed NRC (1989) nutrient requirements. Experimental treatments were 1) control, 2) WCGF constituting 20%, 3) WCGF constituting 27.5%, and 4) WCGF...

Background: Essential oil content and composition in medicinal and aromatic plants is highly affected by both biotic and abiotic factors. Objective: To investigate the effects of drought stress, zeolite and bio-fertilizers on morphological characteristics and essential oil constituents in Dracocephalum moldavica L. Methods: This experiment was conducted in the form of split factorial based on...

Abstract Five bread wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) cultivars including Kavir, Pishtaz, Niknejad, Omid and Roshan were evaluated in a split plot experiment based on randomized complete block design with three replications. Water stress and well-watered conditions were assigned to the main plots and varieties to the subplots. Water stress was imposed by withholding irrigation at the booting stage....

The purpose of this study was to investigate the effects of warm and cold physical as well as chemical processing methods on the nutritive value of barley grains by gas production technique. The processing methods included milling, steam flaking, extruding and soaking up the grain in water containing 1.00% citric acid, 1.00% propionic acid and 0.01 M sulfuric acid. Two-hundred mg of milling sam...

background: affecting the female reproductive organ and the layers around the oocyst, some ration ions could facilitate the penetration of sperm with specific chromosome type and change the sex ratio in mammal infants. objectives: the purpose of the present study was to evaluate the effect of potassium supplement on the sex ratio in rat. methods: the percentage of moisture, ash, crude fat and p...
