Article history: Received 21 January 2008 Received in revised form 12 September 2008 Accepted 10 November 2008 In this study a total of 6499 records were obtained for fibre diameter (FD) and coefficient of variation of FD (CV), 3283 records for greasy fleece weight (GFW), staple length (SL) and shearing interval (SI) and 1802 records of textile value index (TV) obtained from an experimental her...

in order to investigate the effect of urea, azocompost and cutting on growth characteristics of oregano, a factorial split-plot experiment was conducted based on randomized complete block design with three replications at yazd and mashhad, iran, during 2012-2013 growing season. four urea levels and four azocompost levels (to provide 0, 40, 80 and 120 kg n.ha-1 each) for yazd location )0, 43.5, ...

In an attempt to explain the variation within this species and clarify the subspecies classification, an analysis of the genetic, calling songs, and morphological variations within the species Gampsocleis sedakovii is presented from Inner Mongolia, China. Recordings were compared of the male calling songs and analysis performed of selected acoustic variables. This analysis is combined with sequ...

in order to study of variation and relationships between morphological traits with yield and its components in three grain sorghum cultivars (kimia, sepideh and payam) and nine promising lines (mgs1-mgs9) received from seed and plant improvement institute, an experiment was conducted as randomized complete block design with four replications in birjand agricultural research station, in two grow...

The aim of this study was to refine the position of previously detected quantitative trait loci (QTL) on bovine chromosome 14 affecting milk production traits, using both linkage analysis (LA) and combined disequilibrium and linkage analysis (LDLA) methods, in Iranian Holstein dairy cattle. Analysis data was LRT (likelihood ratio test) and computed using the DMU (estimate the (co)variance compo...

We examined functions of residual yolk (RY) in hatchling Smooth Softshell Turtles (Apalone mutica). Removal of RY did not affect survival, shell growth, or resting metabolic rates of turtles for 40 d after hatching. Our estimates of metabolic rate suggest that RY can fuel maintenance and activity metabolism for approximately 25 days. A. mutica absorb more than 1g of water in the first 2 weeks o...

Abstract: The present study deals the theoretical modeling aspects of coupled conductive and radiative heat transfer in the presence of absorbing, emitting and scattering gray medium within two-dimensional square furnace including two flames. The gray radiative medium is bounded by isothermal walls which are considered to be opaque, diffuse and gray. The well known discrete ordinate method (DOM...

for different agronomic traits in sunflower (helianthus annuus l.) inbred lines were estimated using “line × tester” analysis method. six new restorer lines were crossed with four cms lines as tester in 2006 growing season. the 24 f1 single cross combinations were planted in complete randomized block design with four replications in khoy field research station in 2007 growing season. there were...
