optimum management of intra- and interspecific competitions are key subject in most agroecosystems. the objective of this experiment was the study effect of intra- and interspecific competitions and n rates on yield and yield components of wheat which was carried out in agricultural faculty of shahid chamran university of ahvaz during 2011-2012. the experimental design was split–plot based on r...

this study was carried out to investigate the important characteristics in some cultivars/genotypes of persianwalnut (juglans regia l.), black walnut (j. nigra l.), and walnut inter-specific hybrids: paradox (j. hindsii × j.regia) and royal (j. hindsii × j. nigra) in kamalshahr research station in karaj in 2011-2012. in the study,vegetative vigor was evaluated based on trunk cross-sectional are...

objective: to compare outcome of patients with burns covering less than 15% of total body surface area(tbsa) undergoing early excision and grafting or delayed skin grafting. method : this was a non-randomized clinical trial including 54 patients with less than 15% tbsa burn referring to ghotboddin hospital of shiraz. they were assigned to two study groups, each group including 27 patients: the ...

in order to study the effect of rootstock, scion and some methods of grafting and budding to achieve the best methods of grafting in pomegranate, split factorial experiment was conducted in a completely randomized design in march 2013 in greenhouse at the agricultural college of vali-e-asr university of rafsanjan. factors included rootstock, scion, and methods of grafting and time of grafting. ...

In this work, the grafting of maleic anhydride onto two types of linear low density polyethylene with hexene-1 comonomer (LLDPE-H1) and butene-1 comonomer (LLDPE-B1), in the presence of styrene monomer (St) and dicumyl peroxide initiator (DCP) has been studied. The combined influences of MAH, St and DCP on the grafting efficiency via a melt reactive mixing process have been investigated using r...

Interspecific aggression amongst nonhuman primates is rarely observed and has been mostly related to scenarios of resource competition. Interspecific infanticide is even rarer, and both the ultimate and proximate socio-ecological factors explaining this behavior are still unclear. We report two cases of interspecific infanticide and five cases of interspecific infant-directed aggression occurri...

Interspecific territoriality may be adaptive if territories contain depletable resources that are valuable to both species, but it can also arise as a maladaptive by-product of intraspecific territoriality. In the latter scenario, sympatric species ought to diverge in ways that reduce interspecific fighting. We studied 4 Hetaerina damselfly species that can be found in sympatry in North America...

Improving the productivity of cucumber (Cucumis sativus L.) plants subjected to combined salinity and heat stresses is a significant challenge, particularly in arid semi-arid regions. Gianco F1 cucumbers were grafted onto five cucurbit rootstocks and, together with an ungrafted control, grown Egypt net house saline soil during summer season over two years. The vegetative growth, yield, quality,...

Vegetable grafting for disease management was first used successfully when watermelon grafted onto a Cucurbita moschata rootstock overcame Fusarium wilt. Interspecific has since been effectively to mitigate several soilborne pathogens in variety of solanaceous and cucurbitaceous cropping systems. Verticillium wilt caused by dahliae is significant crops difficult manage. Current practices, inclu...
