This research was carried out to evaluate the effect of drought stress on grain yield and qualitative traits in some Iranian landraces of confectionary sunflower. Fifty six confectionary sunflower landraces were evaluated using three different water treatment conditions with three separate rectangular 7 × 8 lattice design with two replications. Irrigation treatments were as follows optimum irri...

This study evaluated the suitability of canola oil as a source of supplemental dietary lipid for rainbow trout. Triplicate groups of the 30 fingerlings held under identical culture conditions were fed twice daily by iso-nitrogenous, iso-calorific and iso-lipidic diets for eight weeks. Experimental diets consisted of 30.3% protein, 18.7 kJg-1 energy and 16.7% lipid from fish oil (FO), canola oil...

in this study, chemical composition, fatty acid (fa) profile and oil characteristics of seeds of salvia leriifolia benht collected from different regions of iran. all samples were rich in oil (24-28.5% dry weight basis), protein (24.5-28.5%) and crude fiber (13.1-16.6%). the mean values for ca, p, k, mg, fe, mn, cu, na and zn were found at the levels of 3866, 2970, 3141, 2584, 57, 18.5, 9.0, 10...

an experiment was conducted to study the effects of soybean, linseed and sunflower oil (various sources of fatty acids) with and without l-carnitine supplements (0 and 50 mg kg-1) on performance, blood biochemical parameters and carcass traits of japanese quail. one hundred and ninety-two of 7-day old female japanese quail were randomly assigned to 6 dietary treatments with 4 replicates and fed...

introduction soybean (glycine max (l.) merrill) is a leguminous annual crop belonging to the fabaceae family, that because an important source of food containing 20 to 28 grain oil percent and high protein is the most important oilseed of worldwide interest. recently, cultivation of this plant is considered as a valuable oil plant in crop rotation. drought, salinity, heat and freezing are envir...
