To investigate a model to simulate wheat dry matter accumulation, three wheat cultivars with different tillering abilities were grown at three densities each in a field experiment. Five simulation models with high correlation coefficients for relative dry matter accumulation were established by the method of normalized. Among these models, the Richards equation was the best in fitting and forec...

Trees have assumed special importance after it was realized that trees could help reduce the emission of atmospheric carbon by trapping it in various pools of carbon viz. above ground biomass, below ground biomass, soil, litter and dead wood. Carbon sequestration through biomass seems to be a cheap and viable option to mitigate the increasing concentrations of greenhouse gases. The study attemp...

this experiment was carried out at agricultural research station of gorgan during summer 2006 to study the effects of corn and green gram intercropping on forage yield, and weed biomass. the experimental design was rcbd with twelve treatments and four replications. a local green gram and corn single cross 550 were the crops employed. the experimental treatments consisted of sole corn and sole g...

We assessed clonal variation in morphological variables, mineral nutrition, root growth capacity, net photosynthesis, tannin distribution, and cuticle and epicuticular wax features within four families of white spruce (Picea glauca (Moench) Voss). Seeds were collected from four families obtained through controlled crosses among selected genotypes. For each family, plants were produced either fr...

OBJECTIVES To analyse the glycosaminoglycans of the adult human rotator cuff tendon matrix, to characterise changes in the glycosaminoglycan composition with age and in chronic rotator cuff tendinitis. METHODS Rotator cuff (supraspinatus) tendons (n = 84) and common biceps tendons (n = 26) were obtained from cadavers with no history of tendon pathology (age range 11-95 years). Biopsies of rot...

1.1 The problematic of hydration status in the kidney disease patient Dry weight corresponds to the body weight of a person with normal extracellular fluid volume [1]. In the context of hemodialysis, dry weight is the weight reached at the end of the dialysis session by patients who will remain free of orthostatic hypotension or hypertension until the next session. Clinicians are thus obliged t...
