the west of esfahan province, iran, is one of the most important agricultural areas throughout the country due to the climate variability and life-giving water of zayanderood river. rice is one of the major and economic crops in this area. the most important climatic elements in agricultural activities which should be considered include temperature, relative humidity, precipitation and wind. so...

Prospects for Genetic Improvement in Internal Nitrogen Use Efficiency in Rice

While improving the efficiency at which rice plants take up fertiliser nitrogen (N) will be critical for the sustainability of rice (Oryza sativa L.) farming systems in future, improving the grain yield of rice produced per unit of N accumulated in aboveground plant material (agronomic N use efficiency; NUEagron) through breeding may also be a viable means of improving the sustainability of ric...

Rice Genetic Improvement for Abiotic Stress Tolerance in Africa

144 (eds M.C.S. Wopereis et al.) Crop and water management can be improved through efficient irrigation schemes, better infrastructure and hydrological control, and optimal use of fertilizers, which can alleviate some of the effects of abiotic stresses. These measures are effective in reducing yield losses, and most improved varieties are responsive to such measures, consequently stabilizing pr...

Function of Religious Capital in the Acceptance of Genetic Engineering

Religions and religious schools have always been one of the main and fundamental factors in the creation and development of civilizations or their destruction. With the establishment of a religious government in Iran; based on the values of the Islamic Revolution, more attention was paid for science and technology. Iran is now praised for its continued growth in scientific publications during t...
