in order to study, the effect of pre-cooling treatment, osmotic potential and water stress on some population of two species of satureja bachtiarica and satureja sahendica was studied by a factorial experiment based on completely randomized design with three replications in laboratory and greenhouse conditions during one year in the gene bank of institute of forests and range lands by the years...

to compensate for some inferior properties of recycled papers, application of processing chemical aids such as chitosan can be quite effective in the wet end section of papermaking. in this study, the performance of chitosan biopolymer, individually or associated with nanobentonite was investigated as wet end additive on recycling process of white cuttings. for this purpose, the performance of ...

due to the use of secale montanum for different rangelands reclamation across the country, management of these ecosystems need to be aware of its ability to environmental stresses. this research investigated the effect of pollutant element of cu and pb on seed germination and growth of this species in laboratory. therefore, the effect of five treatments (control, 50, 100, 150, 200ppm) of pb (no...

introduction atmospheric circulation patterns leads to different weather conditions and rainfall regime change is controlled by seasonal and irregular variations of atmospheric circulation pattern. variety and climate change, such as drought and flood result in changes in the spatio-temporal of precipitation, one of the important parameters conditions mentioned, heterogeneity in moisture transm...

1- introduction crop development is qualitative changes planned that led the plant to ripening. factors such as water available, nitrogen and photosynthetic materials are affected growth and development. under irrigated conditions expected that all of factors except climate elements be controlled. thus, only climate elements able to change of plant growth and development and under these conditi...

for designing tillage implements it would be better to estimate soil forces exerted to the implements. many researches showed that numerical method of discrete element method (dem) is the cheapest and fastest technique for modeling granular material such as soil and especially sandy soil. in this study, paraplow and bentleg tines performance was compared with conventional tine using experimenta...

the purpose of this study was to examine the effectiveness of nanosilver colloid as a new antimicrobial agent against erwinia in tissue culture of sugar beet for the recovery of the contaminated doubled haploid plantlets. the nanosilver colloidal solution of 4000 ppm was diluted in different concentrations (0, 50, 75, 100 and 125 ppm) and was added to the solid ms medium. in a factorial experim...

earthworms are an important part of food chain in soil ecosystem. in polluted soils, heavy metals are consumed by earthworms and transferred to other organisms through food chain, resulting in many adverse health impacts. due to the benefits of earthworms for soil fertility, it is important to assess the effects of soil pollution on population, biomass and functions of earthworms. to determine ...

palm date leaves were processed with lime in a processing reactor in a factorial arrangement of treatments (3 × 3) with 3 levels of temperatures (40, 80 and 100°c) and time periods (80, 160, and 240 minutes) in a completely randomized design. fermentation parameters measured using gas production technique. with increasing pretreatment time and temperature lignin content reduced from 13.0 percen...

beta-2 adrenoceptors in blood vessels are one of the active factors that play a role in regulation of tissue blood flow. in diabetic angiopathy, responsiveness of these receptors is decreased, while that is increased in inflammation. according to these opposite effects, the aim of this study was to investigate the vasodilatory response of knee joint blood vessels to salbutamol (beta-2 adrenocep...
