background and objectives: drought stress is one of the most important environmental factors reducing growth and yield of crops, especially in arid and semiarid regions of the world. during drought stress, nutrient uptake diminishes due to rising of solute concentrations and so increasing of osmotic potential in the root zone. with increasing soil ph, micronutrient uptake decreases more than ot...

background and objectives: different trichoderma species play role as suitable alternative for chemical fertilizers and successful biological tool in stable agriculture. these microorganisms show rivalry in food and place sources. they establish in the rhizosphere of most agricultural and non-agricultural plants via producing spores. they also could induce resistance in plants. these properties...

Local confluence is an important property in many rewriting systems. The notion of critical pairs is central for being able to verify local confluence of rewriting systems in a static way. Critical pairs are defined already in the framework of graphs and adhesive rewriting systems. These systems may hold rules with or without negative application conditions. In this paper however, we consider r...

Chilling damage under 15ºC in anthurium cut flowers reduces the vase-life, quality and marketability of the product. In the present experiment, GABA postharvest treatment (0, 1 and 5 mM) was studied on the vase-life, total soluble solid (TSS), H2O2 content, proline content, spathe browning, catalase and superoxide dismutase enzymes activity of Anthurium andraeanum...

A literature review revealed that most of the empirical equations introduced for determination of the uniaxial compressive strength (UCS) of rocks based on the Schmidt hammer rebound number (N) are not sufficiently reliable mostly due to the relatively low coefficient of correlations. This is attributed to the fact that in most cases one formula is used for all types of rocks, altho...

jasmonate is new plant growth regulator that plays an essential role at increasing plants resistance to the environmental stresses like salinity stress. hence, in this research the effect of foliar application of methyl jasmonate on some physiological indices and yield of german chamomile under salinity conditions was studied. a factorial experiment was laid out based on randomized complete blo...

maize (zea mays l.) is one of the most important crops that used for food, feeding and industrial products and in iran a developing cultivation. in order to study of corn s reactions (hybrid bc666) to supply nutrients to organic nutrition (bacteria and manure) as summer sown in climate conditions of lorestan. an experiment was conduct in meteorology station of lorestan s agriculture research fi...

3,4-dihydropyrimidin-2(1h)-thiones were synthesized in the presence of ag nanoparticle/melamine sulfonic acid (msa) supported on silica gel. the reaction was carried out at 110 oc for 20 min under solvent free conditions. in all cases, the three component reaction proceeded smoothly to give the corresponding 3,4-dihydropyrimidin-2(1h)-thiones in moderate to good yield. we have found the best co...
