This study is to determine how bilingualism could influence the list of Persian basic color terms and their order. Using a monolingual Persian and a bilingual Kurd sample students, and a color list task, it is assumed that bilingualism could change the ordering of the non-basic color terms in the second language, but not the basic ones. Another assumption is that, the old usual methods for obta...

the appearance of sowbugs (hemilepistus shirazi schuttz) in the sedimentation basins of the artificial recharge of groundwater (arg) systems in the gareh bygone plain (gbp) in southern iran is considered an ecological breakthrough in desertification control. this study was performed at the kowsar floodwater spreading and aquifer management research, training and extension station in gbp, 200 km...

olive (olea europaea l.) consumption and production are socially and economically important in iran. the aim of this experiment was to evaluate the vegetative characteristics, floral biology, fruit characteristics, oil percentage, and yield of eleven olive cvs. (‘arbequina’, ‘amygdalolia’, ‘bledy’, ‘roghani’, ‘zard’, ‘sevillana’, ‘koroneiki’, ‘conservalia’, ‘gordal sevillana’, ‘manzanilla’, and...

Yield gap analysis provides an essential framework to prioritize research and policy efforts to reduce yield constraints. To identify options for increasing chickpea yield, the SSM-chickpea model was parameterized and evaluated. The model was applied to analyze seed yield at both potential and water limited production levels and subsequently to find the yield gap for nine different locatio...
