This study was conducted to evaluate 100 safflower genotypes (Carthamus tinctorius L.) under two moisture stress environments (non-stress and drought stress) during 2012 using a simple lattice design. Results showed that drought stress significantly decreased some traits such as seed yield per plant (21.2%), number of heads per plant (18.7%), oil percent (1.8%) and biological yield (15.3%). Res...

three medium magnitude events happened inside the transitional border of south alborz and central iran; namely kahak-qom 2007/06/18 event with ml 5.6, zanjan 2008/05/27 event with ml 5.3 and aradan-garmsar 2007/11/19 event with ml 5.1. this provides us the opportunity to compute focal mechanism and stress drop of the events and compare them with those events happened within the alborz range.

In order to study of agronomic, physiological characteristics, drought tolerance and to identify  Agro-physiological traits associated with drought tolerance, 19 durum wheat genotypes consisting of 17 advanced breeding lines and two control cultivars (Saji and Zahab) were evaluated in a randomized complete blocks design with three replicated under both stress (rainfed condition) and non-stress ...

The use of high yielding and resistant to drought stress cultivars in crops is one of the proper way to incorporation other water deficit management methods. This study in order to evaluate grain yield and morphological traits, an experiment was conducted with 100 genotypes of durum wheat which were planted based on lattice design with three replications under normal and drought stress conditio...

as polysemy is encountered frequently in english as foreign language. fl learners’ ability to disambiguate polysemous verbs becomes critical to their comprehension in the target language. this thesis, accordingly, investigated how iranian efl learners achieved comprehension of english polysemous verbs by using three different types of cues: (1) elaborated context, (2) semantic frames, and (...

This research was conducted to investigate the relationship between different traits, detecting factors affecting this relationship and to identify components of seed yield in canola under drought and normal conditions. Twenty eight canola cultivars were evaluated for morphological, agronomic and physiological traits under water stress and normal irrigation according to a randomized block desig...
