effects of drought stress and chemical treatments was studied on growth and developmental traits of four barley cultivars using a split- split plot design (rcbd) in agricultural research farm, kerman university in 2013-14. main plots consisted of irrigation (control and drought stress after flowering), sub-plots consisted of four barley cultivars (ʻnosratʼ, ʻafsalʼ, ʻyousofʼ and ʻuh12 lineʼ) an...

Despite their common use in clinical settings, caregivers' recollections of the hassles they face in caregiving have not been examined in previous research. Ninety-seven spousal caregivers of persons with dementia were assessed for 6 consecutive months concerning caregiving hassles and numerous other issues. A multi-pass rank order assessment identified the most stressful event in caregiving ov...

in order to evaluate the efficiency of inoculation of chickpea seeds with mesorhizobium and application of nitrogen on yield and yield components of chickpea an experiment was conducted in research station of neishobour, khorasan-razavi. the experiment was conducted in randomized complete block design (rcbd) with four replications and 13 treatments including mesorhizobium (swri 1, 2, 3, 6, 9, 1...

My objective in this effort is to process and interpret acoustic monitoring data taken on both mine shapes and localized biological treatments during the 1995 ORCAS experiment. The ORCAS data allows examination of the acoustic scattering from mines and biological treatments for up to two months. Four types of results can be produced using the data: backscattering, scan-to-scan decorrelation, cu...

This study compares two cleaning methods, one involving an ammonium carbonate-EDTA mixture and the other involving the sulfate-reducing bacterium Desulfovibrio vulgaris subsp. vulgaris ATCC 29579, for the removal of black crust (containing gypsum) on marble of the Milan Cathedral (Italy). In contrast to the chemical cleaning method, the biological procedure resulted in more homogeneous removal ...

the effect of perlite different amounts on grain yield and water use efficiency in winter wheat (cultivar of zarrin) in ghorveh (kermanshah province), was studied in 2007-2008. field experiment using completely randomized block design with seven treatments (p0, p1, p2, p3, p4, p5 and p6) including: zero (reference), 75, 150, 300, 600, 1200 and 2400 kg.ha-1 with four replicates was conducted. ir...

plant population density (ppd) and nitrogen (n) have large effects on chickpea growth and yield. to study these effects on chickpea (var. kourosh) a factorial experiment (4×3) in randomized complete block design with four replications was carried out at research farm of college of agriculture & natural science, karaj (iran) in 2006. four ppd treatments were 16, 32, 48 and 64 plant m-2 and n amo...
