A hydroponic experiment was carried out to compare root anatomy and hydraulic conductivity of four barley cultivars including Valfajr, Karoon, Afzal and Zarjo under salt stress conditions. The results showed that under salt stress, the minimum diameter of vessels was observed in the peripheral metaxylem of seminal roots of Valfajr cultivar and in adventitious roots; Karoon with 19±3 µm had maxi...

â  abstract â  in this study by data of synoptic stations in karoon basin, the intensive showers with 1,2,6 and 9 hour duration have been extracted and the precipitation time regime has been evaluated by ranking method and non dimensional accumulation curve. in ranking method, first the showers of each time base have been divided to smaller periods and on this basis different periods of showers...

some biological characteristics of broodstock and juvenile kutum, rutilus kutum. were investigated using data collected from the estuaries of tajen and shirood rivers (tr and sr) (southern caspian sea basin) as well as from the caspian sea in 2012. the results showed higher condition factors (cf) in the male broodstocks kutum than those estimated in the female broodstock of both tr and sr. the ...

A large amount of accurate river cross-section data is indispensable for predicting river stages. However, the measured river cross-section data are usually sparse in the transverse direction at each cross-section as well as in the longitudinal direction along the river channel. This study presents three algorithms to resample the river cross-section data points in both the transverse and longi...

Climate change is one of the challenges which affect different areas of the human’s life on the earth, one of which is its effect on extreme events such as flood and drought. Today, one of the most important topics being discussed is that how the intensity of heavy precipitations and flood will change in future compared to that of the present values. In the present study, we try to investigate ...

The effect of seed inoculation by phosphate solubilizing microorganisms and different levels of phosphorus chemical fertilizer on forage and grain quality of barley (Karoon x Kavir cultivar) was studied in Experimental Farm of College of Agronomy and Animal Sciences, University of Tehran during 2006-2007 growing seasons. Three phosphorus fertilizer levels of 0 (control), 30 and 60 kg ha were al...

OBJECTIVES To examine nonylphenol (NP) and 4-t-octylphenol (OP) concentrations and general water quality indicators along a river in the greater Tokyo area and to specify the distribution and origin of alkylphenols. METHODS Water was sampled from the Edogawa River, a main river in the greater Tokyo area, which is a source of public drinking water; and the Sakagawa River system, a tributary of...
