for determination of water stress effects in different growth stages of sugar beet and optimum water usage on quantity and quality of sugar beet, this study was performed using randomized complete blocks design in factorial experiment with 12 treatments and 4 replications from 1999 to 2001 in agricultural research center of hamadan. the first factor was non-irrigation in 3 stages of growth (s1-...

BACKGROUND Subsets of CD4(+) T-cells have been proposed to serve differential roles in the development of atherosclerosis. Some T-cell types are atherogenic (T-helper type 1), while others are thought to be protective (regulatory T-cells). Lineage commitment toward one type of helper T-cell versus another is strongly influenced by the inflammatory context in which antigens are recognized. Immun...

two different propagation procedures including aeroponics and soil systems were compared for the minitubers production in potato. the minitubers were evaluated for several quality characters. the plant materials were from three cultivars, agria, marfona and savalan. the plantlets were grown in aeroponics and soil production systems at a plant density of 100 plants per m-2 and stem length, root ...

This essay looks at six APS classic papers published by D. H. Hubel and T. N. Wiesel that first identified a developmental critical period for environment influenced receptive field plasticity in the visual pathway. These classic papers are freely available online. These are listed here, in chronological order. Wiesel TN, Hubel DH. Effects of visual deprivation on morphology and physiology of c...

this experiment was conducted for determining the effect of irrigation termination before harvesting and late application of nitrogen on sugar beet yield, quality and root rot during 1993-95 at safiabad agricultural research center. different irrigation termination and late nitrogen application treatments had a significant effect on root yield. terminating irrigation 1 and 3 weeks before harves...
