Synaptic modifications in nucleus accumbens (NAc) medium spiny neurons (MSNs) play a key role in adaptive and pathological reward-dependent learning, including maladaptive responses involved in drug addiction. NAc MSNs participate in two parallel circuits, direct and indirect pathways that subserve distinct behavioral functions. Modification of NAc MSN synapses may occur in part via changes in ...

usage of inputs is one of the most important factors affecting agricultural production variations. thus, in the evaluation of production function, it is reasonable to consider the effects of inputs usage on the production fluctuation. east azerbaijan province is one of the five major producing in iran and tabriz plain and the most important region of the province for onion production. the main ...

this paper is a survey of recent contributions to and developments in the relationship between efficiency and productivity via the production function. the objective is to provide a brief discussion on data and on the methods of measuring efficiency and productivity. first, we introduce the reader to the measurement of partial and total factor productivity in the context of static and firm - sp...

for evaluation of efficiency and yield per surface unit with using the 56 sugar beet producer countries data in year 2005 an econometric model based on cols method has presented. with this model maximum sugar beet production efficiencies considering the harvested area and annual rainfall measure and level of mechanization has been determined. in total iran with production efficiency 0.43 is in ...
