The main purpose of this research was to evaluate how duration and priming method may affect the germination and growth of cumin seed (Cuminum cyminum L.). The study was carried out in 3 replication by using a randomized completely block (RCB) design. The experimental treatments included: control, [hydro-priming in two durations of 24 and 48 h], [osmo-priming (0.2% of KNO3 in 24 and 48 h, 0.3% ...

Abstract In order to evaluation of seed (pod) priming and seed size (pod) effects on growth and anti oxidant enzymes activity of sainfoin (onobrychis viciifolia Scop.) seedling in normal and drought condition, this experiment was carried in green house condition in 2010. Treatments (16) included: two masses (Borojen and Ghazvin), two seed sizes (large, >4.5 mm and small, 4.5>…>3.5 mm) and four ...

abstract the present thesis seeks to critically read george orwell’s nineteen eighty-four and animal farm in the light of louis althusser’s thought and theory. the present thesis proceeds to examine and demonstrate althusser’s major concepts including ideological state apparatuses (isas), repressive state apparatuses (rsas), the structure, the subject, and ideological interpellation which r...

growing demands and requires of high data rate systems cause significant increase of high frequency systems for wideband communication applications. as mixers are one of the main blocks of each receivers and its performance has great impact on receiver’s performance; in this thesis, a new solution for ku-band (12-18 ghz) mixer design in tsmc 0.18 µm is presented. this mixer has high linearity a...

Germination is the first and the most stages for sainfoin (Onobrychis viciifolia) growth; which it has especially sensitivity to environmental stresses such as alkalinity. The current study was conducted to evaluate the effectiveness of seed pre-treatment methods on improving sainfoin tolerance to alkali stress in germination, early growth and its recovery as a factorial experiment based o...

In order to investigate the effect of priming techniques on germination parameters of ajowan (Carum copticum L.) seed, an experiment was conducted in completely randomized design with four replications. The experiment treatments included a control (no priming), three hydropriming levels with distilled water (24, 36, and 48 h), three osmopriming levels with PEG (solutions with osmotic potential ...

over the past decades a number of approaches have been applied for forecasting mortality. in 1992, a new method for long-run forecast of the level and age pattern of mortality was published by lee and carter. this method was welcomed by many authors so it was extended through a wider class of generalized, parametric and nonlinear model. this model represents one of the most influential recent d...
