among the environmental stresses, salinity is a major limiting factor in world legumes production is considered. in this study, sodium chloride and salicylic acid interaction on growth parameters were investigated in greenhouse with factorial arrangement in randomized complete block design with three replications. the plant consisted of three cultivars of lentil (kimiya, kermanshah and gachsara...

effects of seed priming by salicylic acid on some morpho-physiologic characteristics and yield of cowpea (vigna unguiculata l.) cultivar “parastou” was investigated under water deficit. experiment was conducted as a split block design with 3 replications in 2008-2009 at research farm of zanjan university. factors were including drought stress as a main factor in 2 levels (irrigation, water defi...

In recent years, excessive use of chemical fertilizers and lack of organic fertilizers caused to reduce the rate of soil organic matter in Iran. The increased use of chemical fertilizers in agriculture causes environmental problems such as soil physical degradation and soil nutrient imbalances. This study was conducted to investigate the effects of foliar and soil applications of humic acid on ...

a new model is proposed in this research to calculate the longitudinal strengthof unidirectional e-glass reinforced polymer composites exposed to sulfuricacid environment, using a micromechanics model. in the proposed method,it is assumed that the residual strength of the degraded composites under acidic environment can be calculated by knowing the degraded strength properties of the constituen...

two experiments were conducted to investigate interactions of wheat bran, barley bran, or soybean hulls with sodium deoxycholate and cholesterol in broiler chickens. a completely randomize design was used with a 4×2 factorial arrangement and 256 one-day old broiler chickens (ross 308) with 8 experimental diets in 4 replicates of 8 birds per replicate for each experiment. factors for first exper...

The occurrence of collagen in the cockroach Leucophaea maderae has been demonstrated by electron optical and biochemical techniques. Electron micrographs of tissues of this and a related species (Blaberus craniifer) are presented and they show that collagenous-type fibers occur in the stroma of nonneural as well as neural organs of these insects. Hydroxyproline and hydroxylysine, amino acids co...

Dietary fibers are increasingly appreciated as beneficial nutritional components. However, a requisite role of gut microbiota in fiber function and the overall impact of fibers on metabolomic flux remain unclear. We herein showed enhancing effects of a soluble resistant maltodextrin (RM) on glucose homeostasis in mouse metabolic disease models. Remarkably, fecal microbiota transplantation (FMT)...
