An experiment was conducted to determine the responses of 27 Iranian local and improved rice genotypes to two salinity levels (0 and 100 Mm NaCl) at Soilless Culture Research Center of Isfahan University of Technology. The treatments were arranged as factorial in a completely randomized design with three replications. The results showed that there was considerable variation in agro-morphologica...

this study aimed at examining the effects of iranian efl learners’ anxiety, ambiguity tolerance, and gender on their preferences for corrective feedback (cf, henceforth). the effects were sought with regard to the necessity, frequency, and timing of cf, types of errors that need to be treated, types of cf, and choice of correctors. seventy-five iranian efl students, twenty-eight males and forty...

Sesame is one of the plants that due to the high content (47-52%) and high quality (low cholesterol and some antioxidants) its seed oil, important role has in human health. An experimental with objective to evaluate eight local landraces of sesame to drought stress based on grain yield and drought tolerance indices using factorial split plot design was conducted with three replications in resea...

cognitive studies of translation process have recently been awarded a great deal of attention. there exists a psychological angle to almost all translation activities. the present study, thus, deals with analysing the relationships between iranian prospective translators tolerance for ambiguity (ta) and their willingness to translate (wtt). the research was conducted as a mixed methods study, d...

Phytophthora root and crown rot of safflower (Carthamus tinctorius) is regarded as one of the main soilborn diseases of this crop in Iran. Sampling and isolating of the causal agent was performed from farms in Ghazvin, Karaj and Isfahan. A frequently isolated oomycete called Phytophthora drechsleri was determined as the major pathogen of the disease. Twenty different genotypes of safflower were...

Drought as one of the most important environmental stresses causes serious threats in amount and efficiency of crop productions. To evaluate drought resistance by using drought tolerance indices in safflower varieties, a research was conducted at the Research Farm of Bu-Ali Sina University. Experiment was planed as split-plot on the basis of randomized complete block design with three replicati...
