extended abstract   introduction the most important indicator of climate in a region is vegetation community. climate can be different over large areas, because of changes in vegetation community. vegetation influences weather and climate in its surrounding areas mostly by way of evapotranspiration and albedo so they play a role in the earth’s energy balance. these effects on the earth’s energy...

objective(s): up to now, many researches have been performed to improve the antitumoral effect of melanoma differentiation-associated gene-7 (mda-7) protein. the purpose of our research was to construct 3 expression vectors producing mda-7 in fusion with rgd (arginine-glycine-aspartic acid) peptide and evaluate their expression.     materials and methods: mda-7 gene with two different rgd seque...

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...

1- introduction crop development is qualitative changes planned that led the plant to ripening. factors such as water available, nitrogen and photosynthetic materials are affected growth and development. under irrigated conditions expected that all of factors except climate elements be controlled. thus, only climate elements able to change of plant growth and development and under these conditi...

in this study the impact of freezing rate and degree of pre-fermentation on sangak frozen dough and its bread was assessed. the pre-fermentation was between zero and 120 min and the corresponding secondly fermentation was between 120 and 0 min, respectively, to obtain total fermentation time of 120 min. the pre-fermentation dough was formed in flat shape and frozen under -20, -25 and -30 °c. it...

this study was conducted to investigate the effects of different temperatures on seed germination of plantago ovata and also to evaluate cardinal temperatures. various constant temperatures (5, 10, 15, 20, 25, 30 and 35ºc) were conducted in a completely randomized design with four replications. the germinated seeds were counted every day and the rate of germination percentage, cumulative germin...

background and objectives: the region of the experiment is located in golestan province, iran, with agriculture subject to various farming conditions (rain-fed and irrigation) and different levels of salinity (more than 38% of golestan’s total land area is salt-affected). the purpose of this study has been to evaluate the stress indices in the selection of tolerant wheat genotypes, not only for...

in this research, moisture sorptions of sayer date were determined at 20, 30, 40 and 60°c, using the standard static gravimetric method developed by the european cooperation project cost 90. several mathematical models, namely gab, bet, iglesias & chirif and halsey were employed to fit the experimental data through non-linear regression. results indicate that equilibrium moisture content increa...

introduction numerous studies have demonstrated the relationship between the amount of co2 in the atmosphere and climate change. in this respect, developed countries have an undeniable role and cause serious damage to earth environment throughout the world. ipcc’ forth evaluation report implies that adding greenhouse gases to the atmosphere during recent decades prevents the heat rays to emit w...
