sunflower has many dry forage yields and is richer than corn in inorganic matter, protein and calcium. therefore, use of this forage in livestock diets can be valuable for elimination of food poverty. in order to determine the best harvest stage for sunflower silage, an experiment was conducted in 2007-2008 at agricultural faculty of shahid chamran university of ahvaz. a randomized complete blo...

Objective: Dry tap is usually defined as a “failure to obtain bone marrow on attempted marrow aspiration”. The diagnosis and management of many haematological diseases depends on examination of the bone marrow, which involves two separate specimens i.e. a cytologic and a histologic preparation. The purpose of this study was to document the causes of dry tap and importance of bone marrow biopsy....

weed's behaviors differ in a multiweed-crop competition system compare to a mono weed-crop competition system. the present investigation was carried out in mashhad, iran, to study the effect of weeds, which emerged naturally in a multi species community along side with melon, on quantitative and qualitative characteristics of the crop during 2007. thirty five plots were selected randomly in a g...

converting rangelands to arable land such as dry farming is widely practiced in many places in iran. this activity could possibly contribute to the increase in downstream sedimentation. the effects of this activity on downstream watersheds are not well documented for many strategic areas in the country. one such area which is proposed for this study is the kardeh drainage basin, located in the ...

A study on insect succession of monkey carcass in a forested area in Ulu Gombak, Selangor, Malaysia was conducted from 9 May to 18 June 2007. The third instar of the housefly, Musca domestica (Linnaeus) (Diptera: Muscidae) were only found on dry stage of a decomposed (Day-33) monkey carcass (Macaca fascicularis Raffles). This observation revealed that M. domestica maggots were found together wi...

wheat stem reserves can be an important contributor to grain filling particularly under drought conditions. knowledge concerning genetic variation in stem reserve could be empolyed to develop wheat genotypes more adapted to harsh environments. the aim of this research was to study the ability to store assimilates in stem and their re-mobilization to the grain in all the 81 iranian wheat cultiva...

background: nutritional education is a necessity in diabetic patients to better control of the disease. the aim of this study was to determine the effectiveness of educational programs to promote nutritional knowledge in type ii diabetes patients using the health belief model (hbm). methods: this was a quasi-experimental study which was performed among type ii diabetic patients referred to rura...

this research was carried out to evaluate the effects of some morphophysiological traits on white sugar yield of 10 commercial sugar beet (beta vulgaris l.) varieties. all experiments were conducted in four important sugar beet growing areas in iran, i.e. moghan, khoy, karaj and zarghan in 2006 and 2007. the experiment was arranged as a randomized complete block design with three replications i...

given the important role of crop growth indices for explanation of cultivars yield differences in diverse environmental and agronomical circumstances, this experiment was conducted at research field of tarbiat modares university during 2007 growing season. experimental treatments were arranged in split-plot layout based on randomized complete blocks with four replications. in this research, sow...
