in order to study on the effect of incomplete sire's pedigree on the prediction of breeding value and estimation of genetic trend, two quantitative traits such as weaning weight and average daily gain with heritabilities 0.15 and 0.30 were simulated. phenotypic, genetic and environmental correlations were assumed 0.5. resulted data files with different proportion of missed sire pedigree (0...

two experiments were conducted to evaluate the nutritional value of purslane powder and its effects on performance, egg quality and reproductive system parameters of laying hens. one hundred and twenty laying hens (leghorn, hy-line w-36) were used in a completely randomized design with four treatments and five replicates. hens received diet supplemented with different levels of purslane powder ...

in order to study of no-tillage, reduced tillage and conventional tillage systems on some soil physical properties, yield and some traits of wheat and chickpea, experiments were perfumed across two years in sarpolezahab’s dryland region.results of combined analysis of variance indicated that different tillage systems had significant effects (p≥0.01) on seed yield, volumetric soil moisture, bulk...

the purpose of this research is to numerically investigate the interaction of pulsatile flow of blood with an axisymmetric artery in various percentages of stenosis. the carreau non-newtonian model and the generalized maxwell rheological model were used to model the blood fluid and the viscoelastic wall of arterial, respectively. the innovation of the present research is modeling of viscoelasti...

the effects of aluminium and aluminium-citrate on some serum parameters related to carbohydrate metabolism in male wistar rats were investigated. daily intraperitoneal administrations of 1 mg/kg body weight of aluminium or aluminiumcitrate (1: 1) for 50 days led to the elevation of serum insulin by 24 or 40 percent respectively, with the concomitant decrease in serum glucose concentrations by 1...
