almond is one of the most important species of genus prunus. most almond cultivars and genotypes are self-incompatible and some of others are cross-incompatible. in this study compatibility and frequency pollen tube penetrate in the ovary were performed in three groups. the first group included the genotype a9.7 as female parent and tuono with genotypes a230, a10.11, a8.39 as male parents, the ...

In recent years, a growing number of archaeologists have explored the potential of expanding Lévi-Strauss’s concept of house societies to better understand specific archaeological contexts. Looking specifically at the classificatory distinction between “great houses” and “small houses” within Chaco Canyon (A.D. 850–1180), I suggest this theoretical model might yield new insights with regard to ...

in order to investigate effect of organic manure and super absorbent on physiological and biochemical traits of potato (solanum tubersum, cv marfona), a split plot experiment was conducted as randomized complete block design with three replications at research farm, agriculture college, university of razi in 2010. main factor included two levels of super absorbent a200 (0 and 70 kg/ha,) and spl...

in order toa desirable growth, plants need fertile soil which has the availability of nutrient elements in it. sometimes, in spite of having access to the nutrient elements, decrease yield, due to undesirable physical situation. stock (matthiolaincana cv. column crimson) is one of the potting flower that its growth medium traditionally including hawar soil, basin sediment and untreated waste mu...

changes in chlorophyll florescence is one of the physiological responses of plants to waterlogging stress. due to easily measured in field and its inexpensive and non-destructive characteristics, it is one of the best ways to assess different genotypes tolerance to stresses. in this experiment, trends of chlorophyll fluorescence index (fv/fm) of ‘satsuma’ mandarin (citrus unshiu) on seven roots...

ALK fusions can be detected by FISH (florescence is situ hybridization), IHC (immunohistochemistry), RT-PCR (reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction) and NGS (next generation sequencing). All these methods have advantages drawbacks. We aimed to improve the performance of PCR testing, which cost-efficient requires minimal amount material. assessed various test designs evaluated spectrum ...

In order to determine effect salicylic acid and Zn on characteristics of pistachio nut (Pistacia vera L. cv. Owhadi), the experiment was carried out as factorial in the framework of CRD design with three replications. The results showed that salicylic acid and Zn increased nut fresh weight and decreased blank nut percentage. The application of salicylic acid decreased splitting percentage and k...

background:   brucellosis is one of the most common chronic diseases, with widespread distribution. in spite of cell-mediated immunity (cmi) modulated mainly via activated t-helper type 1 (th1) cells, brucellosis can advance to chronic disease in about 10-30% of cases. regulatory t cells (treg cells) are involved the immune response to brucellosis; however, their role, particularly in the chang...
