Background :Control of radioactive emissions from nuclear power plants , particularly radioactive iodine compounds before discharge to the environment is important .   Methods : In this study, methyl Iodide vapour adsorbtion capacity was evaluated on the basis of the activated carbon and TEDA (tri ethylene di amine), and HMTA (Hexa methylen tetra amine) impregnated activated carbon bed .   Re...

To evaluate the effect of spraying with methyl jasmonate on some morphological characters and flower dry weight of chamomile under salt stress an experiment was conducted at greenhouse. The experimental design was as factorial based on a randomized complete block design. Spraying with methyl jasmonate at five levels including, 0, 75, 150, 225 and 300 μM and salt stress applied at four levels in...

Salinity is a major environmental factor limiting plant growth and crop productivity. Therefore many studies had been done to minimize the stress effects caused by salinity in agriculture and plant physiology. To access the effect of methyl jasmonate and salinity on peppermint, experiment was conducted as factorial based on a randomized complete design (CRD) with three replications. In this res...

Heavy metals are the most important pollutants in the environment. The productiion of toxic metals by human activities has lead to the contamination of soil. The presence of these metals in the soil and their accumulation in plants grown on these soils will have adverse effects on humans and animals. One approach to reduce the accumulation of heavy metals in plants is using of plant hormones. T...
