to investigate the effect of droughtstress on chlorophyll content, enzymatic responses and some growth characteristics of acacia victoriae seedlings and the effect of super-absorbent polymers (sap) in reducing drought stress, a split plot experiment based on the completely randomized design was conducted. the treatments included four levels of drought stress (15, 30, 60 and 100% of field capaci...

laser is one of the sources that induce a biological effect in higher plants. the positive effect of laser on some crops has been proved. this research was carried out to study the effect of laser radiation on the accumulation of proline in spring wheat (triticum aestivum cv. kavir) under different nacl treatment levels. semi-coherent red beam, infrared beam and one-second harmonics of neodymiu...

thrips tabaci is one of the most important pests causing serioues damages on onion s in iran despite several chemical sprayings. to assess the population density and damage of the thips on onion, improved sefid-e-khomein genotype along with seven other iranian cultivars of onoin were planted in a rcb design with four replications in two separate experiments (sprayed and non-spray ed ) in arak f...

Stress and chronic pain have been shown to prevent the development of tolerance to morphine analgesia, which appears to be related to neuroendocrine activity and alternation in neurochemicals. Also the involvement of nitric oxide (NO) has been implicated in tolerance to morphine analgesia. In our pervious study, we showed that co-administration of swim stress (ss) with chronic morphine, prevent...

to evaluate the effects of water deficit stress in barley germplasm collection of national gene bank ofiran, 25 genotypes collected from arid and semi arid provinces of iran and 3 sample cultivars werestudied in two environments including: non-stressed and water deficit stress. agronomical, phenologicaland morphological traits were measured. stress indices were calculated to determine tolerant ...

An important consideration when applying neural networks is the sensitivity to weights and threshold in strict separating systems representing a linearly separable function. Two parameters have been introduced to measure the relative errors in weights and threshold of strict separating systems: the tolerance and the greatest tolerance. Given an arbitrary separating system we study which is the ...

The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of ketamine and midazolam on preventing the development of morphine tolerance and dependence and withdrawal syndrome in mice. In the present study different groups of mice were received morphine (50 mg/kg, s.c.), morphine (50 mg/kg, s.c.) + ketamine (25, 50, 75 mg/kg, i.p.) , morphine (50 mg/kg , s.c.) + midazolam (0.5, 1, 2 mg/kg, i.p.) , mor...
