Olive leaf spot or peacock spot, caused by the fungal pathogen Spilocaea oleagina, can cause reduced growth and yield in olive trees (Olea eurapaea). Investigations were carried out during 20072010 to measure the prevalence and severity of olive leaf spot in the northern olive growing regions of Iran. The susceptibility of ten cultivars (Amygdalifolia, Blaidy, Koronakei, Mary, Manzanillo, Missi...

The photochemistry of the carbon-nitrogen double bond was first explored in depth in the seventies (Padwa, 1977; Pratt, 1977). The low photochemical reactivity of this bond is due to the deactivation of the excited state of the imine by E–Z isomerization processes, which do not have any synthetic utility because of their very low energy barrier for thermal conversion (Padwa & Albrecht, 1974a, 1...

the present study attempts to investigate the effect of thermal treatment at 180 °c for 8 hours on chemical changes, quality indexes and oxidative stability of three iranian common virgin olive oils (zard, mari and phishomi). oil samples were taken every 2h of heating treatment and assessed for fatty acid composition, conjugated diene value, carbonyl value, color index and oxidative stability i...

despite the profusion of flowers that develop on olive trees, only a few set fruit during the growing season and only about 1-2% of the fruit remains on the trees at maturity. therefore, to maximize fruit set and yield, it is important for growers to understand the cross-compatibility between cultivars when planning to establish an olive orchard. this study was carried out in shiraz, fars provi...

in this research, the quality indices, phenolic compounds (hydroxy tyrosol, tyrosol, cinamic and vanilic acid), fatty acids and pigments from olive oil of cultivars ‘zard’, ‘roghani’, and ‘mari’ (from kazeroon region, located in fars province), were assessed. measurement of phenolic compounds showed that ‘mari’ cultivar oil contained the highest cinamic and vanilic acids with 1.4 and 1.18 milli...

salinity is one of the most important limiting factors for crops, because of most agronomic and horticultural crops are sensitive to salinity. on the other hands, considerable lands of the world were affected by salinity and they are increasing day by day. an experiment was conducted with five levels of irrigation water salinity in soilless culture and greenhouse condition to evaluate the effec...

conclusions although carbohydrate fermentation patterns specified these three isolates as b. infantis, b. bifidum, and b. longum, the molecular results did not confirm b. longum, which is still also controversial in the literature. overall, our results demonstrated that kashk-e zard is a rich potential source of probiotic bacteria and further investigations should be undertaken. results twelve ...

After publishing “The Temples of Anāhīd at Estakhr (Southern Iran): Historical Documents and Archaeological Evidence” (2018) in Juraj Belaj et al. (ed.). Sacralization Landscape Sacred Places, (Zbornik Instituta za Arheologiju Serta Instituti ArchaeologiciKknjiga, 10), Zabreb p. 179-194), Shavarebi was contacted by Amiri Bavandpour who offered an important piece information about the temples Es...
