in order to evaluate the effect of sowing date and plant density on the morphological triats, yield and yield components of sweet corn (zea mays l. var sc. 403) an experiment was conducted at the khorasan razavi agricultural research and natural resources center, mashhad, iran during 2008. this experiment was carried out as split plot based on rcbd with four replications. the sowing date (14th ...

Fresh pistachio fruit cv. Kalleghochi was harvested from the exterior and interior parts of the tree canopy in four geographical directions. The fruit position in exterior and interior parts of the tree canopy has a significant influence on the number of nuts per ounce, pistachio splitting, hull weight, shell weight, kernel weight, colour indices and total anthocyanin content. Results indicated...

Blind image deblurring, i.e., deblurring without knowledge of the blur kernel, is a highly ill-posed problem. The problem can be solved in two parts: i) estimate a blur kernel from the blurry image, and ii) given estimated blur kernel, de-convolve blurry input to restore the target image. In this paper, by interpreting an image patch as a signal on a weighted graph, we first argue that a skelet...

Eighty eight plus trees representing the entire distributional range of Pinus wallichiana (Blue pine or Kail ) in Kashmir Himalaya were sampled to determine the extent and nature of variability and character association in eight cone and seed traits. Wide variations were observed in cone weight (28.16-46.0 g), number of seeds/cone (41.6-90.6) and 1000 seed weight (42.0-67.0 g). Genetic coeffici...

identification and evaluation of indigenous genotypes of fruit trees are matter of consideration at the first step of the breeding programs. in order to study genetic diversity and to identify promising genotypes, 14 different genotypes of walnut in minoodasht region in golestan province (north of iran) were evaluated. traits such as nut shape, kernel color, ease of removal of kernel halves, ke...

The bound state Bethe-Salpeter amplitude was expressed by Nakanishi using a two-dimensional integral representation, in terms of a smooth weight function g, which carries the detailed dynamical information. A similar, but one-dimensional, integral representation can be obtained for the Light-Front wave function in terms of the same weight function g. By using the generalized Stieltjes transform...

Chickpea (Cicer arietinum L.) is a native crop of Asia which is grown worldwide including Iran.In this study,different selection criteria including correlation,regression and path analysis were used to improve yield.The experimental design was split plot with RCBD replicated four times in which three sowing dates (5 January,4 February,and 5 March) were used in main plots and four genotypes;two ...

Cesàro (C, δ) means are studied for orthogonal expansions with respect to the weight function ∏d i=1 |xi |2κi on the unit sphere, and for the corresponding weight functions on the unit ball and the Jacobi weight on the simplex. A sharp pointwise estimate is established for the (C, δ) kernel with δ >−1 and for the kernel of the projection operator, which allows us to derive the exact order for t...

The aim of the present study was to evaluate the sub-acute oral toxicity of acetaminophen in Wistar rats at doses of 250 to 1000 mg/kg body weight. The following observations were noticed during the study. No mortality, no incidence of any abnormal clinical signs, no significant effect on body weight gain, no effect on the daily feed consumption, no toxicologically significant effect on the hae...
