Some cultivars of grapevine have very compact cluster which adversely affect its quality and marketability. ‘Yaghouti’ is a commercial early table grape cultivar that has very compact clusters. The present study was conducted to assess the effects of mechanical and chemical thinning as well as GA3 application on cluster morphology and berry size of grapevine cv. ‘Yaghouti’. Treatments were chem...

abstract an investigation was performed in a commercial orchard in shiraz to study the effect of time of application of cuso4 and streptomycin on quality and seedlessness of grapevine (vitis vinifera l. cv. ‘siyah-e-shiraz’). the experiment was conducted as completely randomized block design with 3 replications. plants were treated with 25 mgl-1 cuso4. 5h2o and 200mgl-1 streptomycin 2,4 and 6 d...

four tylenchid species, namely, aglenchus agricola, malenchus exiguus, psilenchus curcumerus, and p. terextremus are reported from iran. the iranian population of a. agricola is characterized by 542-659 µm long body, 10-12 µm long stylet, excretory pore at 70-87 µm distance from anterior end, prominent lateral fields, with four lines, tail of 170-198 long, and rare males with 15-20 µm long spic...

introduction: eugenol (eg), a compound extracted from clove tree, is known for its anti- anaphylactic, anti-inflammation, antiseptic, antibacterial and analgesic properties as well as chain breaking antioxidant in inhibition of lipid peroxidation. retinoic acid (ra), one of the synthetic derivatives of vitamin a, has been frequently used for treatment of face acne. in our studies eg was used to...

background: exposure to ionizing radiation results in genotoxicity and the unrepaired lesions in cellular dna results in cell cycle arrest, reproductive death, interphase death, division delay, chromosome aberrations, mutations, etc. leading to the intensive destruction of cells and violation of their proliferative capacity there by adversely affecting the mammalian system. since ionizing radia...

Grape composition plays important role for wine grapes in terms of wine grape quality. Besides, monoterpenes are a chemical class of compounds present in many highly aromatic Vitis vinifera L. cultivars belonging to Muscat family and some other special cultivars. One of these special grape cultivars is Sauvignon Blanc, and in this study, cluster thinning and its treatment times were used for a ...

　Introduction: Sexual dimorphisms in biological structures such as brain and behaviour have been widely recognized in animals and humans. The purpose of this study was to examine whether there are sex differences in the size of the cerebellum with other body traits, such as the head, tail and brain. Methods: Twelve grasscutters comprising of 6 males and 6 females were used in this study. Each b...
