in order to study the effects of different sowing dates on yield potential of cumin ecotypes and to appoint the best sowing dates of cumin at kerman, the present experiment was performed base on rcbd with split plot arrangement and 3 replications during growing season of 2011-2012. different sowing dates (25th december, 9th january, 24th january, 8th february and 23th february) as main plot, an...

Organisms respond to climate change in many different ways and their local extinction risk may vary widely among taxa. Crustaceans from freshwater temporary ponds produce resting eggs cope with environmental uncertainty and, as a consequence, egg banks have fundamental role for population persistence. The bank dynamics of six clonal lineages Heterocypris incongruens (Ostracoda) Northern Italy w...

Investigation of Some Physiological Traits in Dracocephalum Moldavica L. Ecotypes under Salt Stress Condition

in order to investigate the absorption and translocation of glyphosate and 2,4-d during various stages of growth in swallow-worts weed populations, this study was carried out in 2010 at the iranian agricultural, medical and industerial research institute of atomic energy organization. treatments used in this study included three different stages of growth, four weed ecotypes of swallow-worts, a...

Chromosomal inversions have long been recognized for their role in local adaptation. By suppressing recombination heterozygous individuals, they can maintain coadapted gene complexes and protect them from homogenizing effects of flow. However, to fully understand importance adaptation we need know influence on phenotypes under divergent selection. For this, the marine snail Littorina saxatilis ...

ajowan is one of the endemic plants in khorasan province, and there is a little information on its tolerance to cold stress. in order to study freezing tolerance of ajowan, an experiment was conducted in faculty of agriculture, ferdowsi university of mashhad, based on factorial-completely randomized design with three replications and three ecotypes of ajowan (neishabour, birjand and torbat-e-he...

Genetic variation within plants and herbivores influence the biological attributes insect-plant interactions. We studied performance of different agro-ecological Chilo partellus (Swinhoe) populations on diverse maize genotypes during 2016-17 at ICAR-Indian Agricultural Research Institute, New Delhi. There was significant in larval period, survival, pupal weight, adult emergence C. test genotype...

Targeted environmental monitoring reveals contamination by known chemicals, but may exclude potentially pervasive but unknown compounds. Marine mammals are sentinels of persistent and bioaccumulative contaminants due to their longevity and high trophic position. Using nontargeted analysis, we constructed a mass spectral library of 327 persistent and bioaccumulative compounds identified in blubb...
