to determine the correlation between grain yield and its components in some grain corn hybrids and their cause and effect relationships in various fertilizer application methods, an experiment was carried out as split plot based on randomized complete block design with two fertilizer application methods (urea foliar application and soil application method), four grain corn hybrids (ns 640, kons...

background: infant mortality is one of the main indexes in the assessment of a society's access to the primary health care ser­vices. many factors are involved in this regard. the present study aimed at determining the structural association be­tween socio-economic variables and the rate of infant mortality rate. methods: the required data and information were collected from the multiple indica...

. in order to study the variation for seed yield and its components, 200 accessions of alfalfa (medicago sativa l.) were sown as drilled plots, using alpha designs/unreplicated with two repeated entries with in all of 10 blocks under dry land farming system in kabodarahang research station, hamadan, iran, during 2010 to 2011. data were analyzed for descriptive statistics, correlation, regressio...

soil infiltration characteristics affect the design, evaluation and management of furrow irrigation over afield. on the other hand, different variables influence furrow infiltration, making infiltration modeling for afield a complex process. this study was conducted to investigate the direct and indirect effects of allvariables affecting furrow infiltration. the blocked furrow method was used t...

the purpose of this study was to describe the association between grain yield and its components. the experiment was conducted in a randomized complete block design with three replicatsions. results of analysis showed that similar trends were observed for genotypic and phenotypic correlations and in most cases, the value for genetic correlation was greater than phenotypic value. 100-seed weight...

background: type 2 diabetic mellitus patients are amongst the most susceptible groups to vascular abnormalities, which predominantly lead to myocardial disease. the hypercoagulable state has been widely studied by researchers as being the major suspicious mechanism facilitating the consecutive chain of molecular events leading to these complications. however, there is no consensus on the defini...
