insecticidal efficacy of three diatomaceous earth (de) formulations, debbm, dea and f2 was evaluated on three different wheat cultivars, chamran, verinak and behrang, against tribolium confusum jacqueline du val. des were applied at the rates of 100, 200 and 300 mg/kg. bioassays were carried out on wheat at 27 ± 1 °cand 55 ± 5% rh in continuous darkness. mortality of adults was counted after 2,...

physicochemical and mechanical properties of wheat grains can have a great impact on the quality of the final products (bread). therefore, correct selection of wheat cultivar for specific applications seems to be crucial. in this study, the differences in the physicochemical and mechanical properties (under compression and impact loadings) of ten iranian wheat cultivars (azar2, alamut, bam, bah...

in order to determine yield stability and evaluation of genotype × environment interaction, 20 spring bread wheat promising lines and varieties were studied in a randomized complete block design with three replications in four warm and dry stations (ahwaz, dezful, darab, & khorramabad) during 2002-2004. chamran cultivar was a check in two years trial. the results revealed that the grain yield o...

UNLABELLED Health Information System (HIS) is considered a unique factor in improving the quality of health care activities and cost reduction, but today with the development of information technology and use of internet and computer networks, patients' electronic records and health information systems have become a source for hackers. METHODS This study aims at checking health information se...

This study investigated the composition of volatile compounds in two pummelo cultivars, including 'Shatian' and 'Guanxi', cultivated in different regions of China with the aim of studying the effect of cultivar and cultivation condition on biosynthesis of volatile compounds in pummelo. Volatile compounds were extracted from pummelo juice using head-space microextraction and then analyzed using ...

Two cultivars Buram-3-ho (susceptible) and CR-Hagwang (moderate resistant) of kimchi cabbage seedlings showed differential defense responses to anthracnose (Colletotrichum higginsianum), black spot (Alternaria brassicicola) and black rot (Xanthomonas campestris pv. campestris, Xcc) diseases in our previous study. Defense-related hormones salicylic acid (SA), jasmonic acid (JA) and ethylene led ...

In order to evaluate effects of different survival strategy and canopy structure on cereal radiation use efficiency (RUE) under drought during grain filling, a pot experiment in spring barley (Hordeum vulgare L.) of cultivar Dobla (able for escape, no productive tiller) and Kompakt (one productive tiller) was conducted. There was no difference in current RUE for leaf dry mass (RUEL) between mai...

Switching of symbiotic partners pervades most mutualisms, despite mechanisms that appear to enforce partner fidelity. To investigate the interplay of forces binding and dissolving mutualistic pairings, we investigated partner fidelity at the population level in the attine ant-fungal cultivar mutualism. The ants and their cultivars exhibit both broad-scale co-evolution, as well as cultivar switc...

Digestive enzymatic activity and nutritional responses of Autographa gamma (L.) (Lepidoptera: Noctuidae), an important insect pest of sugar beet, on nine sugar beet cultivars (Peritra, Karolina, Paolita, Lenzier, Tiller, Ardabili, Persia, Rozier, and Dorothea) were studied. The highest proteolytic activity of fourth and fifth instar of A. gamma was in larvae fed on cultivar Persia. The highest ...
