Pistachio suffers from some physiological disorders such as fruit abscission, endocarp lesion, blankness, non-split, early-split and deformed nuts. In this experiment, the effects of calcium nitrate (2 gr/lit), calcium chloride (2 gr/lit), boric acid (200 ppm) and their combination treatments were investigated on physiological disorders of ‘Kaleh-Ghoochi’ pistachio. Foliar application was appli...

Charlock (Sinapis arvensis L.) is a serious weed of agriculture, especially in spring sown crops.  Genus Glaucium Mill. belongs to Papaveraceae and members of this genus have several alkaloids in laticiferes. The present research focuses on effects of aquatic extract of Glaucium oxylobum, G. elegans and G. grandiflorum on many physiological factors of Charlock. Laboratory studies were conducted...

UNLABELLED Nondestructive SR-based microCT and nano-CT methods have been designed for 3D quantification and morphometric analysis of ultrastructural phenotypes within murine cortical bone, namely the canal network and the osteocyte lacunar system. Results in two different mouse strains, C57BL/6J-Ghrhr(lit)/J and C3.B6-Ghrhr(lit)/J, showed that the cannular and lacunar morphometry and their bone...

Abstract When dealing with unrealizable specifications in reactive synthesis, finding the weakest environment assumptions that ensure realizability is often considered a desirable property. However, little effort has been dedicated to defining or evaluating notion of weakness formally. The question whether one assumption weaker than another commonly interpreted by considering implication relati...

Applying reactive synthesis in practice often requires modifications of the synthesis algorithm in order to obtain useful implementations. We present slugs, a generalized reactivity(1) synthesis tool that has a powerful plugin architecture for modifying any aspect of the synthesis process to fit the application. Slugs comes pre-equipped with a variety of plugins that improve the quality of the ...

Obesity as a common health risk is increasing all over the world. The aim of this study was evaluation of standing and sitting positions on spirometric values in obese asthmatic patients, in comparison with normal obese subjects. The study included 49 obese asthmatic patients with mean age of 42.63 years and body mass index of 36.06 kg/m2, and 51 control obese normal subjects with mean age of 3...

Limnological studies were under taken to understand the correlation between physicochemical parameters and phytoplanktons of the Tighra reservoir, Gwalior, Madhya Pradesh from November 2010 to October 2011.In the present investigation, water temperature ranged from 18.4 C to 35.75 C, transparency ranged from 152.75 cm to 211.5 cm, conductivity from 272.5 μS/cm to 408.5 μS/cm, turbidity from 5.7...

SINCE 1905 1 have pLublished several articles in the Norw7egian, French, and German languages (Lit. 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, and 7) on a rapid Cand extremely sensitive comparative metlhod for thie detection of central or paracentral colour scotoma, duie to axial intoxication of, or axial inflammiation in, the optic nerve. In the disctussion on Perimetric Alethods at Oxford, 1920, I demonstrated the 1914 ...
