Fig mosaic disease (FMD) is a viral disease that spreads in all Tunisian fig (Ficus carica L.) orchards. RT-PCR technique was applied to leaf samples of 29 fig accessions of 15 fig varieties from the fig germplasm collection of High Agronomic Institute (I.S.A) of Chatt-Mariem, to detect viruses associated to FMD. Analysis results show that 65.5% of the accessions (19/29) and 80.0% (12/15) of th...

During spring 2011, some fungal isolates were recovered from sterilized soil (Fig. 1, A) or vermiculite, in pots and flats in greenhouses in Shiraz University, using malt extract agar and potato dextrose agar (Fig. 1, B). Anamorphic characteristics such as conidiophores and conidia were investigated. Conidiophores 125–1350 × 7.5–15 µm, hyaline, erect, broad, septate, branched once, twice (Fig. ...

This work presents version 1.3 of the Finite Improbability Generator (FIG): a statistical model checker to estimate transient and steady-state reachability properties in stochastic automata. Specialised rare event simulation via importance splitting, FIG implements RESTART Fixed Effort algorithms. Its distinctive feature is push-button automation: users need not define an function, because can ...

ABSTRACT- The aim of this study is economic analysis of supplemental irrigation (SI) for rain-fed fig trees in the south of Iran, with and without micro-catchment water harvesting systems (MCWHS). Under no MCWHS, by decreasing about 55 % of applied water, the fig yield decreased about 28% and net income increased twice compared with the maximum yield condition. In general, the ...

two experiments were conducted to investigate the feeding value of waste fig along with its effect on broilers, performance. in the first experiment, the amen content of fig was determined through total collection method using 10 adult leghorn cockerels. in the second experiment, 240 day-old male ross broiler chicks were randomly alloted to 6 experimental groups of 4 replicates of 10 chicks eac...
