Tree stem diameter variations were measured simultaneously in beech (Fagus sylvatica L.) in Sorø, Denmark and in Scots pine (Pinus sylvestris L.) in Hyytiälä, Finland. The variations were detected at two heights on the xylem and the whole stem on both trees. The evapo-transpiration of the forests was measured by eddy-covariance method. The pattern of evapo-transpiration was refl ected on the di...

Background and Objective: Nanoparticles have been introduced as novel antimicrobial agents because of their properties that are different from their bulk properties. Present study was aimed to investigate antimicrobial activity of silver nitrate and zinc oxide nanoparticles against three main bacteria responsible for nosocomial infections, S. aureus, P. aeruginosa and A. baumannii. Materials a...

In this study, it was carried out to determine some vegetative characteristics and yield of 30 lines M4 plants which different mutagens were applied. As a mutagen, 120 Gy gamma rays 40 Mm Ethyl Methane Sulfonate (EMS), humidification neem oil applications among the trial subjects. Features such as pod length width, weight, plant height, stem diameter, number pods, grains per grain weight invest...

The aim of this research was evaluate the seedling behavior of among Pistacia species can be used as rootstock in pistachio. Differences in stem diameter were observed among the species. The thickest stems were developed by P. atlantica (5.67 mm), P. vera cv. ‘Qazvini’ (25.47mm) and ‘Badami-e-Riz-e-Zarand’ (5.13 mm) whereas the thinnest stems were measured in P. atlantica subsp. kurdica (3.48 m...

the purpose of this study was to determine the influence of platform switching on stress distribution of two different implant systems using three-dimensional (3d) finite element models.six 3d finite element models were created to replicate two different implant systems with peri-implant bone tissue, in which six different implant-abutment configurations were represented: model xive-a: 3.8-mm-d...

under condition of limited water supply, determination of minimum water requisite to keep potential yield should be considered as an important target. with this respect, a field experiment was conducted at research farm of university college of agriculture and natural resources, university of tehran, in 2012-2013, karaj, iran. the experiment was conducted in a split plot, based on randomized co...

this experiment was carried out in the agricultural faculty of guilan university. the factorial experiment was performed based on a completely randomized design of three replications. the experimental factors comprised of: lillium cultivars, navona (asiatic) and fangio (la), four levels of calcium nitrate (0, 1, 1.5 and 2 mm) in combination with three levels of iba (500, 750 and 1000 ppm) . the...
