the considerable role of ziziphus spina christi in preserving water and soil and its resistance to heat and drought, the necessity of planting this species for afforestation and restoration of their habitats and urban green space is obvious. the aim of this study was to determine the best irrigation and seedbed treatments before planting for ziziphus spina christi seedling production. this stud...

We studied the response of Elaeagnus rhamnoides (Sea Buckthorn) to drought stress in a nursery. Photosynthesis and chlorophyll content under drought were change rather modest. Growth and physiological differences in response to drought were compared between four Sea Buckthorn seedlings treatments inhabited in the Qazvin provenance origin seeds in Mashhad city of Iran. The experimental design in...

Introduction: Several studies have reported anti-anxiety effects of morphine in adult rats. The present study examined the effect of chronic morphine injections in infancy and before puberty on anxiety-like behavior in immature rats. Methods: Neonate rats (n=35) were randomly chosen and divided into two groups. On postnatal days 8-14, one group received saline and the other one received mor...

Leaf abscisic acid concentration ([ABA]) during growth influences morpho-physiological traits associated with the plant's ability to cope with stress. A dose-response curve between [ABA] during growth and the leaf's ability to regulate water loss during desiccation or rehydrate upon re-watering was obtained. Rosa hybrida plants were grown at two relative air humidities (RHs, 60% or 90%) under d...

objective: the current study aimed to determine the efficacy of radioiodine-131 (131i) ablation therapy with thyroid hormone replacement one day before 131i administration in patients with well-differentiated thyroid cancer (dtc). methods: this retrospective study included 29 patients who underwent 131i therapies twice for dtc during 6-12 months.  since all the patients obviously had residual l...

Water availability is a major limitation for agricultural productivity. Plants growing in severe arid climates such as deserts provide tools for studying plant growth and performance under extreme drought conditions. The perennial species Calotropis procera used in this study is a shrub growing in many arid areas which has an exceptional ability to adapt and be productive in severe arid conditi...

Introduction: Prathama Patalagata Timira is one of the stages which a Drishtigata Roga and can be correlated to Simple Myopia with characteristic symptom blurred vision for distant objects. This disease said physiological become major health concern. It common cause ocular morbidity that may ultimately lead blindness as explained by Vagbhatacharya. Objectives: The objectives study are evaluate ...

Biological soil crusts (BSCs) are a widespread photosynthetic ground cover in arid and semiarid areas. They have many positive ecological functions, such as increasing soil stability, and reducing water and wind erosion. Using artificial technology to achieve the rapid development of BSCs is expected to become a low-cost and highly beneficial ecological restoration measure. In the present study...
