To estimate the genetic diversity of chickpea germplasm from Iran, a total of 307 landraces from 4 regions including: northern areas (29 from Ardebil, 3 from Qazvin and 5 from Mazanderan provinces), temperate (16 from Kermanshah, 2 from Semnan, 54 from Khorasan and 20 from Kerman provinces), semi-arid (28 from Ghom and 56 from Isfahan provinces) and cold areas (15 from West Azarbayjan, 52 from ...

In this paper we address a special case of "sloppy" quantum estimation procedures which happens in the presence intertwined parameters. A collection parameters are said to be when their imprinting on probe that mediates procedure, is performed by set linearly dependent generators. Under circumstance individual values can not recovered unless one tampers with encoding process itself. An example ...

Wheat is affected by various biotic and abiotic stresses, especially salinity, which reduces the growth yield drastically. With this view, an experiment was conducted to observe genotypic differences in agro-morphological, yield, biochemical responses salinity. Experimental variables consisted of five salt-tolerant genotypes (G 13, G 20-1, 9, 22, 20-2), one susceptible genotype 24) standard che...

Drought is a major problematic phenomenon for the mostly semi-arid country of Iran. The north centralregions of Iran (north of Esfahan and Ghom province) have suffered from severe droughts several times duringthe last three decades. The frequent occurrence of drought in these regions is due to low and inconsistentprecipitation, abnormally high temperatures, increases in surface albedo and evapo...
