for vegetative propagation of nemaguard, st julien a, tetra and gf677 rootstocks via cutting, two separate experiments were carried out in a factorial based on completely randomized design. semi hardwood cuttings were taken in late august and then treated with concentrations of zero, 1500, 2000, 2500 and 3000 mg/l iba. cuttings were cultured in perlite medium and in a greenhouse with mist syste...

As the industrial hemp ( Cannabis sativa L.) market grows, there is a need for methods to clonally propagate parental breeding stock and new cultivars. Information lacking on vegetative cutting propagation of hemp. We evaluated how environment (intermittent mist vs. subirrigation under humidity dome), indole-3-butyric acid (IBA) formulation (talc rooting powder IBA in solution), concentration (...

This study aims to investigate and optimize the effects of the main parameters including the particle size, gravity and magnetic separation combination, high gradient magnetic separation, magnetic field intensity, shaking table slope, washing water flow, and electrostatic separation upon the rare earth element (REE) recoveries from iron mine waste. The electron microprobe showed that high amoun...

heavy metal pollutions of aquatic ecosystems have already raised many concerns on aquaticorganisms’health and survival especially on their sperm. the effects of a single metal on sperm may be totallydifferent from cocktail of several metals because of their interactions, so the effects of zinc, cadmium andcalcium on the trout and carp sperms and their competition have been examined by incubatio...

BACKGROUND In sublingual immunotherapy, optimal doses are a key factor for therapeutic outcomes. The aim of this study with tablets containing carbamylated monomeric house dust mite allergoids was to determine the most effective and safe dose. METHODS In this double-blind, placebo-controlled dose-finding study, 131 patients with house dust mite-induced allergic rhinoconjunctivitis were random...

The tendency to use natural organic wastes is one of the environmentally safe applications in crop production. Therefore, presented study aimed determine effect adding mushroom and sulfur residues gypsiferous soil their efficiency improving production broccoli ‘Balimo F1’ (Brassica oleracea var. ‘Italica’). set out a randomized complete block design with three replications. 10 combined treatmen...

In the National Toxicology Program 2-year inhalation study of dichloromethane (DCM), there was a significant increase in pulmonary neoplasms in female B6C3F1 mice exposed to 2000 ppm (overall rates of 30/48 versus 5/50 in control). Replicative DNA synthesis was examined to evaluate the potential role of treatment-induced lung cell proliferation on pulmonary carcinogenicity. Tritiated thymidine ...

The purpose of the study was to investigate the cultural specificity of guanxi, wasta, and jeitinho, each of which has been identified as an indigenous process of informal influence. Students in Brazil, China, Lebanon, and the UK were presented with three scenarios derived from each of the nations sampled. They rated the extent to which each scenario was representative of the locally indigenous...
