The main aim of this research was to estimate the genetic and phenotypic parameters for productive and reproductive traits of Esfahan native chickens. Traits included body weights at hatch (BW1), 8 weeks of age (BW8), 12 weeks of age (BW12), and at sexual maturity (WSM)], age at sex maturity (ASM), egg number (EN), average egg weight (AEW) in the first 12 weeks of production, and egg production...

introduction: oral lichen planus (olp) and oral lichenoid lesions (olls) are clinically and histopathologically similar lesions but with different etiologies and treatment plan, thus differentiatingthese two has been the center of many researches. studies in different populations have beenperformed on clinical and histopathologic features of olp and olls. thus aim of the present studywas to eva...

production of beneficial halophytes such as kochia (kochia scoparia) using saline waters and soils is one of the most sustainable methods of conservation in desert ecosystems. kochia is one of the most common annual halophytes grown in iran. seed germination of four ecotypes of kochia in saline conditions was carried out using factorial based on completely randomized design with four replicates...

background: zoonotic cutaneous leishmaniasis (zcl) is a neglected disease with public health importance that is common in many rural areas of iran. in recent years, behavioral resistance and/or bait shyness against the common rodenticide among reservoir hosts of zcl have been reported. the aim of this study was to evaluate the effectiveness of klerat® and zinc phosphide against natural reservoi...

the standardized precipitation index (spi) has become a popular measure of drought across the globe. in this study, standardized precipitation index (spi) was used in annual period of time to survey on drought. also, in order to zonation frequency of drought, geographic information system (gis) software and kriging method used for extracting dry areas. the zoning maps show most severe drought i...

in order to study the yield and growth indices of spring safflower as double cropping, an experiment was carried out in 2007 at the research farm of faculty of agriculture, yasouj university, iran. the experiment was a factorial based on randomized complete block design with three replications. factors included of combination of four sowing dates (may 16, june1, june 16 and july 2) and four cul...
