regeneration and engineering of functional new tissues containing the neural network have great importance. progression of neural network into the dental tissue has a crucial role in dental tissue regeneration. in the present study polymer-ceramic blended scaffolds containing different weight percentages of carbon nanotube in poly caprolactone nanofiber matrix were fabricated. morphological, me...

understanding the relationship between sink and source in maize is of prime importance in maize growing regions. in this study, a field experiment was carried out during spring and summer 2007 in the experimental field of the college of agriculture, shiraz university, to examine the effects of source restriction (defoliation) on sink size (yield and its components) of  sc704 maize hybrid.  a fa...

Yearling live weight and fleece trait data were obtained from between 2214 and 2270 yearling SA Mutton Merino progeny of the Elsenburg flock during a 20-year period from 1983 to 2002. Information of (co)variances for these traits in SA Mutton Merinos is exceedingly scarce in the literature. Estimates of (co)variance components and ratios were thus obtained from these data, using an Animal Model...

The present study aimed to quantitatively compare the normal and diabetic hearts of rats using stereological methods. Diabetic and control rats received streptozotocin (60 mg/kg) and no treatments, respectively. On the 56(th) day, the hearts were removed and their total volume was estimated using isotropic Cavalieri method. The total volume of the connective tissues and vessels, total length an...

Pistacia vera cv Badami-e-riz and P.vera cv Ghazvini are the most important and popular rootstocks in Iran, which tolerate salinity and phytophthora fungi. This study was conducted to evaluate the effects of various concentrations of polyamines and IBA on root regeneration of transplanted bare- rooted ‘Badami-e-riz’ and ‘Ghazvini’ pistachio rootstocks. The mean comparison between IBA and polyam...

introduction saffron is one of the most economically important plants across iran and all over the world. the most important cultivated areas of saffron are in khorasan-e razavi and southern khorasan provinces (jihad keshavarzi khorasan razavi, 2013). the corm is the reservoir of photosynthetic materials and plays an important role in the saffron life cycle. corm size and physicochemical charac...
