gavane-gaz-angubin (persian manna) belongs to astragalus genus (leguminosae). this plant is one of the most important species in iran for its medicinal value. considering the low propagation rate of this plant from seed and cutting, the feasibility of in-vitro propagation of this plant was investigated. effect of different types and concentrations of cytokinins such as bap, kin, and ze (0.5, 1,...

forest cover is one of the most effective factors in reducing flooding in northern iran, so that in recent years the destruction, land use changing and uncontrolled harvesting of forest areas, has greatly increased the number and magnitude of floods. so far, there have been few studies on forest hydrology in iran, particularly the northern hyrcanian forests. this study examines the impact of a ...

in this research priority of gorgan’s sub- watershed were done after normalizing the indicators using gis software. the multi-attribute decision-making methods including electre, topsis and saw were used in this study. ahp was applied in order to weighting the indicators in expert choice software. first, priority the sub-watershed were done by electre, topsis and saw using the excel. each metho...

mechanisms of drought stress tolerance of gf677 rootstock, peach and almond hybrid, (prunus persica × prunus amygdalus) were studied under in vitro conditions. plantlets of gf677 rootstock were subcultured into the murashige and skoog (ms) solid proliferation medium containing 1 mg/l ba (6-benzyladenine) and 0.1 mg/l naa (naphthaline acetic acid) in four drought stress levels 0 (control), 10, 2...

evaluation of changes present in soil and water resources due to operation implement of floodwater spreading is necessary to assess their positive or negative resultant effect. rate of the internal sediment to diversion spreader channels, surface sedimentation and aggregation of the spreading field depth are most important effective attributes on the yield of floodwater spreading systems. these...

in rainfed areas of iran, cereal yields are low, variable and mainly as a result of inadequate and erratic seasonal rainfall and associated management factor, such as late sowing date (or late crop germination). in order to investigate the effects of single irrigation and nitrogen on bread wheat (triticum aestivum l. var. sabalan) a field experiment was conducted as split plot arranged in a ran...
