the effect of kaolin on fruit and oil of olive cv. `zard’ was evaluated in a commercial orchard in fasacity, fars province. mature olive trees cv. `zard’ were sprayed with 0, 3 and 6% kaolin after 60 days, 60and 90 days and 60, 90, 120 days after full bloom. results showed that kaolin concentration and sprayingtime had not significant effects on physicochemical parameters but they had significa...

late spring frost damage is the main factor that limits apricot production in iran.this research was aimed to evaluate the damage of freezing in two apricot cultivarflowers: ʽʽnasiriʼʼ and ʽʽnori-dirrasʼʼ during spring 2011. reproductive organs of thesecultivars at two phenological stages, popcorn and full bloom, were transferred toprogrammable freezer with temperature touch down from 5°c to -1...

The aim of this study was to compare two tropical grass species, Panicum maximum and Digitaria eriantha, in terms of silage fermentation attributes and certain rumen fermentation characteristics of silage made either at the boot or full bloom stages of growth. A lower silage pH was recorded for the D. eriantha than for the P. maximum silage. Neither species nor maturity stage had a significant ...

The high temperature may cause difficult growth or bloom in the summer, which is key problem limiting cultivation and application of dahlia. photosynthetic physiological mechanisms dahlia under stress were studied to provide a theoretical basis for expanding range annual production. Two varieties, ‘Tampico’ ‘Hypnotica Tropical Breeze’, used as test materials treated 1 d 2 at temperatures 35/30 ...

Intraparenchymal hemorrhage in the full-term neonate rarely occurs more than 2 weeks after birth, and its definitive cause remains unclear. In the present report, a case of a patient with intraparenchymal hemorrhage occurring 33 days after birth is described. Histological examination of the brain tissue obtained during hematoma evacuation through craniotomy showed hemorrhagic infarction. Patent...

Background: The beneficial effect of breastfeeding for the health of mothers and infants are well recognized. Breast milk is a novel source of the stem cells forming during pregnancy and lactation. In the present study, the colony forming efficiency (CFE) of breast milk-derived stem/progenitor cells in the breast milk of mothers with preterm delivery (gestational age o...

Almond is an important tree nut crop worldwide, and planted areas have been increasing year after year. While self-fertility one of the key factors when it comes to improved almond productivity new cultivars, yield also affected by number flowers produced, pollination, fruit set, drop, weight. drop patterns 20 Mediterranean cultivars were studied over three years. In addition, two scion ‘Marina...

In apple cultivation, simulation models may be used to monitor fruit size during the growth and development process to predict production levels and to optimize fruit quality. Here, Fuji apples cultivated in spindle-type systems were used as the model crop. Apple size was measured during the growing period at an interval of about 20 days after full bloom, with three weather stations being used ...
