drought resistance is a very important characteristic needed for plant survival especially at germination stage, in arid and semi-arid lands. phosphatase enzymes are widely found in plants. these enzymes are responsible for dephosphorylation of organic phosphate and altering it to mineral phosphate. germination experiments were conducted in two bread wheat cultivars (sardari and alvand) under s...

Background: Gibberellic acid (GBA) is a naturally occurring and commercially produced plant growth regulator which may cause a variety of effects including the stimulation of seed germination in some cases. Histochemical changes in testicular tissue including carbohydrates, lipids and alkaline phosphatase enzyme changes were evaluated. Materials and Methods: Twenty seven mature male rats after ...

BACKGROUND AND AIMS To investigate the prevalence and pattern of PC and BCP mutations and their clinical significance in patients with genotype D chronic hepatitis B infection in the Fars province of southern Iran. MATERIALS AND METHODS From January 2007 to March 2008, we evaluated 44 patients with chronic hepatitis B infection who were referred to our hepatology clinics affiliated with the S...

water and soil salinity are two of the most important limiting factors in crop production. phosphatase enzymes are widely found in plants. phosphatase enzymes are responsible for de-phosphorylation of organic phosphate and altering it to mineral phosphate. germination experiments were conducted using two bread wheat cultivars, namely, iniya66 and ghods along with application of different nacl p...

Practical decision situations are becoming increasingly complicated. It is common for a person to select or rank alternatives with respect to multiple attributes, and the TODIM (an acronym in Portuguese of interactive and multiple attribute decision making) method, which is one of the first multiple attribute decision making (MADM) methods based on prospect theory, has received more attention d...

‎In this paper‎, ‎we use a complete pivoting strategy to compute the IUL preconditioner obtained as the by-product of the Backward Factored APproximate INVerse process‎. ‎This pivoting is based on the complete pivoting strategy of the Backward IJK version of Gaussian Elimination process‎. ‎There is a parameter $alpha$ to control the complete pivoting process‎. ‎We have studied the effect of dif...

A logical foundation for the intersection and union types assignment system (IUT) is proposed. We present Intersection-Union Logic (IUL) as an extension of Intersection Logic (IL) by adding rules for union and we examine some properties of this system and its relation with intuitionistic minimal logic.
