This study was conducted to investigate the hair production and fleece characteristics of hairy goats according to the sex and age of animals. The material of the study consisted one total data of 73 hair goats, which were between more than one year-old and one year-old Lori goats from both sexes (26 males and 47 females). The overall fleece weight, fiber length, lock length, washing yield, hai...

An ultrafine grained dual phase (UFG DP) steel containing niobium was produced by a new route utilizing simple cold-rolling and subsequent intercritical annealing of ferrite/martensite duplex starting structures. The effects of intercritical holding time on the microstructural evolutions and mechanical properties were studied. The results showed that increasing intercritical holding time enhnac...

the effect of dry material, glycerol and ratio of water to seed in alyssum homalocarpum films on their thickness, transparency, moisture content, tensile strength, elongation and water vapor permeability was investigated using mixture response surface methods. dry material and glycerol were important factors influencing tensile strength, elongation and water vapor permeability. ratio of water t...

the objective of this research was to study the effects of phenological stages on yield and quality traits in 22 populations of tall wheatgrass agropyron elongatum. a split plot design was conducted using a complete randomized block with two replications in lorestan (borujerd), iran during 2007-2008. the genotypes were cut in five maturity stages as vegetation, stem elongation, heading date, an...

a nano/ultra-fine grain al-0.2wt% zr alloy was produced by accumulated roll bonding (arb) processafter 10 cycles. the fraction of high angle grain boundaries increased from 8% to 65.4% during 10passes during arb process. this alloy was subjected to tensile test at different temperatures (523,573and 623 k) and strain rates (0.1 and 0.01 s-1). the optimum condition of temperature and strain rate ...

to evaluate the effect of zn sulfate foliar application on morphologic and quantitative characteristics of safflower (carthamus tinctorius l.) cultivars, a field experiment carried out in ramin agriculture and natural resources university of khouzestan, iran, in a factorial arrangement in a randomized complete block design with four replications, during 2012-2013. treatments consisted of two sp...

Seed priming is a technique which is potentially able to promote rapid and more uniform seed germination and plant growth as well. In this regards, the presowing effects of seed priming treatments were investigated on some physiological viz. seed germination, germination rate, radicle elongation, shoot elongation, radicle dry weight, shoot dry weight and vigor index. Seeds were subjected to two...
