syrian rue or harmal ( peganum harmala l.), belonged to the family of peganaceae, grows in semi-arid climates such as the middle east and north africa. traditionally, this plant, especially the seeds, has been recognized for its several medicinal uses. in this stydy, genetic diversity between 21 harmal accessions, collected from different regions of iran were evaluated by inter simple sequence ...

introduction thermodynamically, the surface waters in mountain environments are unstable and their chemical composition is a reflection of water-rock interactions. few studies have also been undertaken on the geochemistry of the surface waters in mountain environments. hence, this paper deals with the source of elements as well as the chemistry of the stream which drains from the caldera of bid...

annual fires might change many soil physical properties in semi steppe rangeland.the objective of this study was to investigate the impact of fire on soil physical properties and soil water infiltration parameters in semi-steppe rangeland of karsanak region in chaharmahal and bakhtiari province. therefore, several sites were chosen which were affected by fire at three, two and one years prior t...

Many polymorphisms exist in field bindweed (Convolvulus arvensis L.) populations. These differences that appear especially in their flower and leaf cause to different biotypes of this weed that are different in view of dry weight, rate- and flowering period. This research was accomplished during 2005 to 2006 at Weed Research Department, Iranian Plant Protection Research Institute for identifica...

identification and evaluation of indigenous genotypes of fruit trees are matter of consideration at the first step of the breeding programs. in order to study genetic diversity and to identify promising genotypes, 14 different genotypes of walnut in minoodasht region in golestan province (north of iran) were evaluated. traits such as nut shape, kernel color, ease of removal of kernel halves, ke...
