to study the effect of drought stress during using organic and chemical fertilizers on morphological, agronomic traits and the essential oil of coriander, a field experiment was conducted as split plot based on randomized complete block design in three replications at agricultural research station, college of agriculture, university of torbat heydarieh, iran during growing season of 2010-2011. ...

Drought and heat stress, especially their combination, greatly affect crop production. Many studies have described transcriptome, proteome and phosphoproteome changes in response of plants to drought or heat stress. However, the study about the phosphoproteomic changes in response of crops to the combination stress is scare. To understand the mechanism of maize responses to the drought and heat...

Combined antiretroviral therapy has proven efficacy in decreasing vertical HIV transmission. However, endoplasmic reticulum stress is a known side effect of HIV protease inhibitors. We investigated endoplasmic reticulum stress in placentas of HIV-infected and uninfected mothers by PCR-based splicing analysis of the specific endoplasmic reticulum stress marker XBP1 in post-delivery placental sam...

in order to investigate the combined effects of shift work and heat stress on the physiological parameters, such as heart rate (hr) and body temperature (bt), a hot-dry working environment was investigated for 53 workers in foundry workshops. in this study wet bulb globe temperature index (wbgt) was measured and along with that simultaneously heart rate and oral temperature were checked in 3 sh...

the new cereal, primary tritipyrum lines, is an artificial hexaploeid wheat (2n=6x=42, aabbebeb) from crossing between triticum durum (2n=4x=28, aabb) and thinopyrum bessarabicum (2n=2x=14, ebeb) species. in this study the salt tolerant potencial of new primary tritipyrum lines for nacl (0, 100, 200 mm) in an hydroponic experiment was studied in a completely randomized split plot design with th...

This study examined the effect of combined heat and mental stress on neurovascular control. We hypothesized that muscle sympathetic nerve activity (MSNA) and forearm vascular responses to mental stress would be augmented during heat stress. Thirteen subjects performed 5 min of mental stress during normothermia (Tcore; 37 ± 0°C) and heat stress (38 ± 0°C). Heart rate, mean arterial pressure (MAP...
