in order to investigate the effects of municipal waste compost and benefit fungi of trichoderma species on seedling emergence parameters, growth and some micronutrients uptake of garden cress a pot experiment was carried out in factorial arrangement based on randomized complete block design with 3 replications. treatments consisted of three levels of municipal waste compost (15, 30, 45 mg ha-1 ...

introduction earth has ever been exposed to environmental hazards. the hazards are continually occurring in the world in the recent years. among them, atmospheric elements have created many human and financial losses in different regions. one of the hazards is dust events and in its severe case is dust storm. it happens more frequently in arid and semiarid regions in deserts and their surroundi...

background: the association between lipid peroxidation biomarkers and adipocytokines is hypothesized in preeclampsia but little is known about it. objective: the present study was undertaken to determine the association of lipid peroxidation biomarkers measured by the levels of 8-isoprostane and malondialdehyde with adipocytokines leptin and adiponectin in maternal serum of preeclamptic women. ...

background and objectives: the region of the experiment is located in golestan province, iran, with agriculture subject to various farming conditions (rain-fed and irrigation) and different levels of salinity (more than 38% of golestan’s total land area is salt-affected). the purpose of this study has been to evaluate the stress indices in the selection of tolerant wheat genotypes, not only for...

introduction: patients with schizophrenia characteristically exhibit cognitive deficits. the level of cognitive impairment is found to predict the functional outcome of the illness more strongly than the severity of positive or negative symptoms. the purpose of this study was to assess the efficacy of ondansetron, a 5-ht3 receptor antagonist as an adjuvant agent in the treatment of chronic schi...

evaluation of changes present in soil and water resources due to operation implement of floodwater spreading is necessary to assess their positive or negative resultant effect. rate of the internal sediment to diversion spreader channels, surface sedimentation and aggregation of the spreading field depth are most important effective attributes on the yield of floodwater spreading systems. these...

rice (oryza sativa l.) is one of the iran's most strategic crops with water shortage as the most important abiotic stress limiting its yield. in the present research the effects of: variety, water regime, nitrogen (n) and phosphorus (p) levels on n, p and k uptake were studied under greenhouse conditions. the experiment design was a factorial one based upon a randomized complete blocks of ...

in order to evaluate the effects of ethephon and nitrogen fertilizer on sweet sorghum cv. sofra, an experiment was conducted as split plot on a randomized complete block design with three replications at agricultural research station of isfahan university (isfahan, iran). experiment was conducted with four nitrogen levels (0, 100, 200 and 300 kg urea ha-1 from urea with 0, 46, 92 and 138 kg nit...

in this research, moisture sorptions of sayer date were determined at 20, 30, 40 and 60°c, using the standard static gravimetric method developed by the european cooperation project cost 90. several mathematical models, namely gab, bet, iglesias & chirif and halsey were employed to fit the experimental data through non-linear regression. results indicate that equilibrium moisture content increa...
