During growth, kernel of cereals can be provided with carbohydrate and nitrogen (N) from the translocation of pre-anthesis accumulated reserves stored either in the vegetative plant parts or from current assimilation during kernel development. This study was conducted to assess the effects of nitrogen level and cultivars on dry matter and N accumulation and mobilization during pre-anthesis and ...

Hazelnut (Corylus avellana L.) is the one of the native and valuable shrub in Iran. Identification of the superior genotypes of hazelnut is the firs step for cultivation developing and breeding programs of this nut crop. In this research, had been studied phenological, morphological and pomological characters according to hazelnut’s descriptor for two years (2009-2010) on four populations of ha...

Recurring seasonal patterns of microbial distribution and abundance in three third-order temperate streams within the southeast Pennsylvania Piedmont were observed over 4 years. Populations associated with streambed sediments and rocks (epilithon) were identified using terminal restriction length polymorphism (tRFLP) and sequencing of 16S rRNA genes selectively amplified with primers for the ba...

The present work describes the effects of winter and spring genotypes of rapeseed (PF7045/91, Okapi and Opera), explants (cotyledons and hypocotyls), light, different kinds and concentrations of auxins [Naphthylacetic acid (NAA) and 2, 4dichlorophenoxyacetic acid (2, 4-D)], presence of cytokinin [benzyladenine (BA)] and different concentrations of micro and macro elements (MS and 1/2MS) on call...
