In vitro regeneration of four cultivars of carnation namely ‘Nelson’, ‘Impulse’, ‘Sagres’ and ‘Spitit’ through somatic embryogenesis was studied. MS culture medium was supplemented with 30 gl-1 sucrose, 2 mgl-1 2,4-D and 0.2 mgl-1 BA and used for embryogenic callus formation. Somatic embryos were formed when embryogenic callus was transferred to MS medium without growth regulators containing 30...

three medium magnitude events happened inside the transitional border of south alborz and central iran; namely kahak-qom 2007/06/18 event with ml 5.6, zanjan 2008/05/27 event with ml 5.3 and aradan-garmsar 2007/11/19 event with ml 5.1. this provides us the opportunity to compute focal mechanism and stress drop of the events and compare them with those events happened within the alborz range.

Silicon is as an essential element for crops and an important food source for the growth of rice plant. If no adequate replacement for this element, plants are faced with a shortage of silicon causing serious eating disorder and instability in plant resistance to pests. This research was done to investigate the effect of silicon on growth, yield and tolerance to rice stem borer in Tarom Hashemi...

این آزمایش، مقایسه ضریب استهلاک نور و ساختار کانوپی ارقام رقیب و غیررقیب برنج در برابر علف هرز سوروف بود. بدین‌منظور آزمایشی در سال زراعی 1386-1385 در ایستگاه تحقیقاتی برنج کشور- تنکابن، واقع در استان مازندران، انجام شد. آزمایش به‌صورت فاکتوریل در قالب طرح آماری بلوک‌های کامل تصادفی در 4 تکرار اجرا شد. تیمارهای آزمایش شامل 7 رقم برنج (شامل دیلمانی، خزر، سپیدرود، نعمت، درفک، فجر، شیرودی) و 3 لای...

Background and Objective: Haemophilus influenzae type b (Hib) is a gram negative bacterium and one of the most common causative agents of acute meningitis in infants and less than 5 years old children worldwide. The production of Hib capsular polysaccharide polyribosyl ribitolphosphate (PRP) is important for the production of conjugate vaccines against Hib infections. The aim of this study is t...
