the quest for power has formed much of the world history especially in 20th and 21st centuries. oil (energy) particularly after industrial revolution has been a tool for conquest and power and has been transformed to a geopolitical issue. from a geopolitical point of view this has been the case for the last two centuries in central asia and caucasus. central asia and caucasus has always been...

Doubled haploid production is one of the best breeding methods to produce homozygous (pure) lines. Microspore culture technique is the most efficient method for production of doubled haploid plants. This research was carried out to study the effect of genotypes, stress pre-treatments and culture media on the callus induction and plant regeneration from microspores of anthers in barley (Hordeum ...

A pot experiment was conducted in order to study the effects of mycorhizal inoculation on the response of sorghum genotypes to salinity. The experiment was arranged as factorial in a randomized complete block design with three replications. In this study ten sorghum genotypes were tested under two levels of salinity (0 and 100 mM Nacl), and two inoculation (mycorhizae and control) treatments. T...

Extended Abstract Introduction and Objective: Brassica napus (L.) one of the most important oilseeds in temprate climates. In the most breeding programs, especially when comparing several genotypes in different environments, due to the interaction of genotype×environment, genotypes show different performances in different environments. Therefore, to accurately estimate grain yield, multi-envir...

Background and purpose: Non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) is the most common liver disorder in the world. Genetic factors are believed to be associated with development of NAFLD. This research aimed at studying the effect of eight weeks of compound exercises (aerobic and resistance) on human body with three genotypes (TT, CT, CC) of C677T polymorphism of methylenetetrahydrofolate reduct...
