this research was aimed to investgate the effect of light quality on micropropagation of pear rootstock oh×f333. first, single nodes explants were cultured in modified ql medium containing ba at four levels (0, 0.5, 1, and 2 mg/l-1) and iaa at three levels (0, 0.1, and 1 mg/l-1) and were evaluated for shoot proliferation. then, plantlets subcultured in modified ql medium containing 1 mg/l-1 ba ...

hybrid rice varieties are potentially higher yielding than the best inbred varieties and perform better under adverse conditions of drought and salinity. one of the major impediments for seed production of hybrid rice is incomplete panicle exsertion in the cytoplasmic male sterile lines. the unexserted spikelets which are left inside the flag leaf sheath remain unfertile. this research was focu...

low seed germination and seedling emergence is one of the main problems in saline areas. seed priming technique has been known as a challenge to improve germination and seedling emergence under different environmental stress. the objective of this research was to evaluate the effect of seed priming with gibberellin, nacl and water on seed germination and seed reserve utilization and germination...

sexual behavior in most moths is limited to a precise duration period of either the day or the night. these behaviors as well as the calling behavior are specific. information on reproductive behavior is important in the chemical ecology studies. experiments were conducted to determine the developmental biology, adult time emergence and calling behaviors of three populations of carob moth, ecto...

the district of miyān kūh in the ardal town,chahār mahāl bakhtiari province, because of its high mountains, deep valleys and the fields among small mounts, being placed in the path of the was dering tribes has been the focus of the attention. the rigion has two different viewpoint. one part featuring the mounts chēhēl cheshme and gereh with the altitude of more than 3500 m., has cold winter and...

detopping in some plants reduces vegetative growth and increases transporting of photosynthate materials to specific sinks such as seeds. to study the effects of detopping removal and plant density on yield and yield components of faba bean (vicia faba l.), an experiment was carried out as a factorial arrangement based on a randomized complete block design with three replications at farm resear...

effects of different amounts of morning liming on blood ionic parameters and blood biochemical parameters of cultured carp ponds in dikjeh area of gonbad were investigated. 9 ponds (3 hectars) were chosen and divided in 3 treatments (1- liming 750 mg/l, 2- liming 1250 mg/l, 3- liming 1750 mg/l). liming had significant effect on blood hematocrite (p0.05) were observed between other blood paramet...
