exposure to cold work environment is an occupational health hazard and poses adverse effect on workers health, performance and productivity. this study was performed in a cold food-storage warehouse complex in tehran-iran in order to evaluate the workers' exposure to cold stress. twenty nine exposed workers and 33 non-exposed workers as control subject were included in this study. climatic fact...

in order to comparison and determination of the best drought tolerance indices in sweet corn hybrids, an experiment was conducted using a randomized complete block design in split plot lay out with three replications at seed and plant improvement institute in karaj in 2006. three irrigation levels (irrigation after 75 as control, 100 and 125 millimeters cumulative evaporation from class a evapo...

for evaluation of drought tolerance of sugar beet genotypes by assessment of the drought tolerance indices under mild and severe stresses, furrow irrigated field experiments were carried out at zarghan research station in 2002 and 2004, and at motahari research station (located inkaraj) in 2002, 2003, and 2004. the experimental design was split plot, with a randomized complete block arrangement...

breeding for environmental stress is one of the most important goals in plant breeding. among stresses, drought stress has high influencing on limitation of wheat production. so, in order to find the best drought tolerant genotypes, 24 genotypes were planted in three separate experiments in ardebil: one with optimum irrigation (control), another with water stress at pre-anthesis stage and the o...

in order to map the genomic regions affecting barley drought tolerance indices, an experiment was conducted at the agricultural and natural resource station of sistan. seventy tow double haploid lines of barley with their parents (steptoe and morex) were examined using two 9×9 simple lattice (stress and non-stress), with two replications. each plot consisted of six rows that were 3m in length a...

drought stress, especially drought at terminal stages, plays an important role in reduction of yield in field crops such as common beans. 50 genotypes of common bean including 3 control genotypes (dehghan, bahman and naz) were used to evaluate and identify the tolerant genotypes. this experiment were performed in a randomized complete block design (rcbd) with three replications under two condit...
