clementine mandarin (citrus clementina) is one of the suitable/marketable citrus species in north of iran; however, as a disadvantage has small fruits. in order to produce new citrus cultivar with large and good quality fruit, a project with four phases was conducted from 1989 until 2009. the first phase was started with controlled cross pollination between clementine mandarin as maternal, and ...

BACKGROUND Olive (Olea europaea; O.e.) pollen is a major cause of seasonal respiratory allergy. The O.e. pollination season lasts two months from the beginning of May till the end of June. It was expected that patients with allergic disease from O.e. sensitization were symptomatic only during this period. However, during the last few years, we have observed that the clinical symptoms appear not...

Polymorphism of the b-lactoglobulin (b-LG) gene in 101 cows belonging to the Holstein herd and a superior cow, producing more than 150 Kg milk/day, together with four offsprings was investigated by the Polymerase Chain Reaction-Restriction Fragment Length Polymorphism (PCR-RFLP) method. In the Holstein herd, the alleles A and B of the b-LG gene had frequencies of 0.53 and 0.47, respectively. Th...

In order to study planting date impacts and ending season drought stress  on grain yield and  gaining weight  rate  and wheat filling period characteristics in new advanced bread wheat genotypes ,this research  is done by using plan statistical  of spilt plot  in form of complete random blocks basic  plot with 3 replications in both common separated irrigation  and ending season drought  stress...

to study general combining ability (gca) and estimation of heterosis in sunflower inbred lines for seed yield and other three agronomic traits, 68 inbred lines crossed with open pollination variety lakumka. in next year inbred lines along with topcrosses were planted in rcbd with 2 replications under two moisture conditions in sararood agricultural research station. analysis of variance in both...

The objectives of this study were to assess the genotype (G) by environment (E) interaction of grain yield of durum wheat(Triticum durum Desf.) based on parametric models, additive main effects and multiplicative interaction (AMMI) and joint linear regression models; and compare the relative efficiency of the two models in explaining the GE effects. Twenty-three genotypes were evaluated across ...
