Abstract: Test cross population of Deli dura parents namely; NIFOR ex UP Malaya, NIFOR ex Serdang Avenue, Ulu Remis Deli ex Sabah, NIFOR ex Serdang Avenue x La Me and Equador Deli were evaluated for bunch yield and fruit quality characters in rainforest ecology of Nigeria. The objective of the experiment is to select new Deli dura parents for inclusion in the next cycle of NIFOR oil palm breedi...

Introduction: The aim of this study was to investigate weight gain during pregnancy and birth weight in rural regions of Tabriz, a province in the northwest of Iran. Materials & Methods: A cross-sectional study was conducted using routinely collected data of pregnant mothers from rural health centers. Eight health centers were randomly selected in rural areas of Tabriz. Totally, 874 women aged...

date palm spider mite is one of the major pests of date palm in khuzestan.this pest damages fruits in orchards. in the present study responses of 30 native date palm cultivars of khuzestan were evaluated by assessment of pest infestation severity and fruit damage characteristics. based on the responses, cultivars were clustered into four groups as very highly infested cultivars including liloei...

In the tube drawing process, there are a bunch of parameters which play key role in process performance. Thus, finding the optimized parameters is a controversial issue. Current study aimed to produce a squared section of round tube by tube sinking process. To simulate the process finite element method (FEM) was used. Then, to find a meaningful kinship between process input and output parameter...

Wake eld studies using calorimetric methods are reported. Measurements show interference between wake elds generated by two bunches. The described technique can be used to determine which elements introduce bunch coupling. Introduction Due to nite resistance and irregularities of beam pipe wall the bunch of charged particles traveling through a beam pipe leaves behind a wake eld. The structure ...

background: admission of low birth-weight (lbw) neonates in neonatal intensive care unit (nicu) causes their deprivation of tactile and sensory stimulation. objective: the purpose of this study was to evaluate efficacy of body massage on growth parameters (weight, height and head circumference) gain velocity of lbw in yazd, iran. materials and methods: a randomized clinical trial study was cond...

a selection program is being implemented to improve meat production in makooei sheep. increasing litter size per ewe is the main objective, but possible repercussions on weight traits of lambs should be considered. the aim of this study was to estimate heritability along with genetic and phenotypic correlations between ewe's reproductive vs. weight traits in makooei ewes. data were comprised of...

in order to study the effects of cppu and ga3 on fruit quality and quantity of sultanina grapes, a factorial experiment in a randomized complete block design was implemented in a commercial vineyard near bonab city (west azerbaijan province). the spraying was done at fruit set stage using cppu and gibberellic acid. according to the results, it was found that these plant growth regulators had a ...
