in order to study of genetic diversity and similarity among four native olive cultivars including ‘mari’, ‘zard’, ‘shengeh’ and ‘rowghani’, these cultivars were evaluated in five regions including ali abad, gilvan, tarom, manjil and jamal abad at 2012-2013. there was a significant difference among studied individuals. the correlation coefficient analysis among studied traits showed that there w...

in the course of the present study, samples were taken from the non-defoliant strain of verticillium dahliae (ss-4) from infected olive groves in toshan area in southern gorgan. root-knot nematode, meloidogyne javanica, was recovered from infested olive seedlings and after identification was reaned on tomato seedlings cv. rutgers. during the study, one-year-old seedlings of olive cultivars zard...

olive leaf moth, palpita :union:alis (hübner) is an injurious pest of nurseries, of young olivetrees, and also of the suckers of old trees. in feeds on some other such host plants as ash,jasmine and privet. knowledge of the biology and life table parameters of the pest species isneeded in any pest management program. in this work, life history traits and life tableparameters as well as the popu...

Determining of chilling and heat requirements of olive cultivars growing in Fars Province is important for the selection of cultivars that will exhibit satisfactory growth and development. The purposes of this study were determining the chilling and heat requirements of olive and comparison of Utah and Positive Utah Chill unit (PCU) models for determining the chilling requireme...

Olive fly is the most dangerous pest in olive groves worldwide. Therefore the study of the most susceptible and resistant cultivars to olive fly can bring new information to diminish the olive flies harmful impacts. The main goal of the present study is to verify the olfactory response of olive fly to olive volatiles from five native Iranian cultivars (Fishomi, Mari, Rowghani, Shengeh, and Zard...

upper devonian sediments of the kuh-e zard area northwest of zefreh, central iran, arecomposed mainly of brown and grey limestones with sandstone and shale intercalations. they contain tracefossils such as chondrites isp., diplocraterion parallelum, fustiglyphus annulatus, lockeia isp., phycodesisp., and taenidium barretti. these trace fossils indicate a shallow marine environment
