abstract paclobutrazol is one of the most important triazolic compounds which are used as growth retardants in some crops. in this study, the effect of application methods and concentration of paclobutrazol on plant height of tuberose and possibility of pot production was investigated. in the first experiment, tuberose bulbs were soaked in 0, 25, 50, 75 and 100 mg.l-1 paclobutrazol for 10, 20 a...

The present study was conducted to investigate the seasonal effects of five land use systems (LUSs), i.e., wheat–rice (Triticum aestivum—Oryza sativa) system, sugarcane (Saccharum officinarum), orange (Citrus sinensis) orchard, safeda (Eucalyptus globules) forest, and grassland, on soil quality nutrient status in lower Satluj basin Shiwalik foothills Himalaya, India. Samples were analyzed for a...

this study was conducted to evaluatethe effects of different inter- and intra-row spacing on the dry matter accumulation and partitioning coefficients in faba bean, barakat cultivar. experiment was conducted as factorial in a randomized complete block design with three replications. factors were inter-row spacing (15, 30, 45 and 60 cm) and intra-row spacing (5, 10 and 15 cm). the plant dry matt...

forest roads are directions in natural habitats that used to transport wood products, secondary forest products and recreation. constructing forest roads causes trees clearing with specified width thus lead to direct or indirect changes in forest ecosystems and forest environment. this study aims to assess the changes of diversity and richness indices in main and secondary forest roads in a par...

PURPOSE Malignant peripheral nerve sheath tumors (MPNSTs) are a rare subtype of sarcoma that occur spontaneously or in association with neurofibromatosis type 1 (NF-1). This study aimed to clinically differentiate these types of MPNSTs. MATERIALS AND METHODS The study reviewed 95 patients diagnosed with and treated for MPNST at Yonsei University Health System, Seoul, Korea over a 27-year peri...

Murine erythroleukemia cells were subjected to physicochemical stresses such as high pressure (60--110 MPa), heating (42--45 degrees C), and ultraviolet (UV) irradiation (5--25 kJ/cm(2)). After exposure to these stresses, the cells were cultured at 37 degrees C and atmospheric pressure. The number of the cells treated at 100 MPa, 45 degrees C, or 20 kJ/cm(2) remained constant or decreased at an...

Twenty neonates born with oesophageal atresia and tracheoesophageal fistula over a period of two years were managed and the role of gap length between the two ends of oesophagus on the outcome was studied. Twelve (60%) were males and 8 (40%) were females. Body weight ranged from 2.2 kg to 3 kg. Only 2 (10%) were received within 24 hours of birth. Six (30%) were received within 48 hours of birth...

the objective of this study was to obtain relationships between plant leaf area (cm2plant-1) with leaf dry weight (g plant-1), vegetative dry weight (g plant-1) and plant height (cm) in faba bean (vicia faba l.). the experiment was conducted at the research farm of gorgan university of agricultural sciences in 2011-2012 growing season. the experimental design was a randomized complete block des...
