Zinc (Zn) deficiency caused by inadequate dietary intake is a global nutritional problem, particularly in developing countries. Therefore, zinc biofortification of wheat and other cereal crops is being urgently addressed and highly prioritized as a research topic. A field study was planned to evaluate the influence of zinc application on grain yield, grain zinc content, and grain phytic acid co...

A supervised feature selection algorithm was applied to determine the most important features contributing to wheat grain yield. Four hundreds seventy two fields (as records) from different parts of Iran which were different in 21 characteristics (features) were selected for feature selection analysis. Selection of the wide range of features, including location, genotype, irrigation regime, fer...

BACKGROUND Apart from the mortality, road traffic injuries are associated with significant morbidities. This study has aimed to examine the pattern of traffic accident-related extremity fractures/dislocations and their related disabilities. METHODS A retrospective hospital-based study was conducted to assess the characteristics of limb fractures/dislocations among road traffic accident victim...

to study the nature and magnitude of gene effects, heritability and number of effective factors for grain yield and some yield components in rice, six generations viz., p1, p2, f1, f2, bc1 and bc2 were prepared from the crosses of shapasand × irfaon-215 and irfaon-215 × saleh and grown in a randomized complete design with three replications. results of analysis of variance showed significant di...

In most wheat growing moderate regions and especially in the north of Iran climate, is affected grain filling by several physical and abiotic stresses. In this region, grain filling often occurs when temperatures are increasing and moisture supply is decreasing. The experiment was designed in RCBD with split plot arrangements with four replications. Four irrigation treatments included (I0) no i...
