Data format: BayesPref requires that data be provided as an object class matrix. The data provided in "YGGVdata" is oviposition preference data for Lycaeides populations from Yuba Gap, CA and Gardnerville, NV. Here, the populations have been coded numerically. That is, Yuba Gap is population 1 and Gardnerville is population 2. The abbreviations for plant species are as follows: Ast, Astragalus ...

The present work was planned to evaluate the phytoextraction of metal mine tailings, Sarcheshmeh copper mine, SE of Iran, by the endemic plant species Medicago sativa L. (Alfalfa). In this pot experiment, we investigated the effects of seven amendments on the growth of alfalfa and uptaking metals from the mine tailings and stream sediment of tailing dam surface. The mean metal concentrations in...

Nine eriophyoid mites, including two new species and five new records, from Iran are described and illustrated. They are Aceria acroptiloni Shevchenko & Kacalev, 1974, rec. n. on Rhaponticum repens (L.) Hidalgo (Asteraceae); Aceria anthocoptes (Nalepa, 1892), rec. n. on Cirsium arvense (L.) Scop. (Asteraceae); Aceria lactucae (Canestrini, 1893), rec. n. on Lactuca virosa L. (Asteraceae); Aceria...

This study was carried out to investigation the possibility of using Triadimefon (TRD) in order to decrease the adverse effects of salt stress on Medicago plant. Triadimefon is a member of Triazol compounds which enhances stress tolerance through physiological processes. Two cultivars of Medicago sitiva including Hamedani and Yazdi were used in this study. Plants were treated with 1, 2 and 4 mg...
