in order to investigate the effects of boron, zinc and sulfur on yield and fatty acid composition of rapeseed(hyola 401 cultivar), an experiment was conducted in rasht province in 2011. a field experiment withcompletely randomized block design was performed with eight treatments in three replications.maximum grain yield (4157.6 kg ha-1) and grain oil (1770.2 kg ha-1) was obtained from s+b+zntre...

determination of an optimum sample size for the evaluation of sugar beet quality is of vital importance. a desirable sugar beet sample could represent confidently the sugar content and quality of delivered beets to the sugar factories. this experiment was carried out at research station of kamalshahr, karadj, iran. the experimental field was about 2000 m2 with the distance between rows and plan...

effects of different paclobutrazol concentrations (0, 250, 350 and 450 mgl-1) and plantlet density (80, 100 and 120 plantlet/m2) on minituber production per plantlet in potato cultivar ‘sante’ were investigated in a factorial experiment based upon a randomized complete block design of 4 replications. paclobutrazol (cultar with 250 g/l of active ingredient) was used as foliar application at earl...

organochlorine pesticides are as environmental pollutants which have a high half-life and transmit from food chain to human and cause side effects such as mutations in different genes and finally cancer. in this research, after sampling and quantitative and qualitative of organochlorine residue, biodegradation of alpha, beta and gamma hexachlorobenzene (linden), ddt, aldrin, dieldrin, endosulfa...

rice (oryza sativa l.) is one of the iran's most strategic crops with water shortage as the most important abiotic stress limiting its yield. in the present research the effects of: variety, water regime, nitrogen (n) and phosphorus (p) levels on n, p and k uptake were studied under greenhouse conditions. the experiment design was a factorial one based upon a randomized complete blocks of ...

optically stimulated luminescence (osl) is currently one of the most important dating methods. it dates the last exposure to sunlight. natural hazard evidences such as colluvial wedges, alluvial and fluvial sediments can be dated by osl. therefore, osl plays an important role in studies related to paleoseismology and tectonic activity, particularly in arid and semi- arid regions. the altai moun...

in order to investigate of different salinity stress and plant densities effects on quantitative and qualitative forage and grain yields of kochia a randomized complete block design in factorial arrangement with three replications was used. a field study was conducted in 2011 cropping season in agriculture experiment satiation, college of agriculture, islamic azad university, arak branch treatm...

to study the response of pinto-bean yield and yield components in intercropping with maize and naked-pumpkin under weed competition, two similar experiments were conducted in rasht and roudsar separately each in a randomized complete block design with 3 replications on factorial arrangements experiment in 2013. the treatments of first factor consisted of  pinto bean (100 and 75%) sole cropping,...

the aim of this research was to investigate the efficiency of ldpe films incorporating fifferent nanofillers in extending orange juice shelf life. fresh orange juice packed in different films was assessed for microbial stability, ascorbic acid content, ph, color parameters and sensory quality during 0, 7, 28 and 58 d of storage. mold and yeast growth, acidophil and aerobic mesophil bacteria pop...

three hundred and fifteen day -old chickens were used to test the relationship between oxygen-derived free radicals and the biochemical, hematological and pathological alterations(associtd with ascites). they were randomly divided into three experimental groups and ascites were developed in two groups of animals by exposing them to low temperature or administration of triiodothyronine (t3,), an...
