gypsum found in the soil beneath the foundation of structures, specially hydraulic structures, can cause serious damage to them. the mechanical behavior of gypsiferous soils has not so far been investigated in detail except for the works of petrukhin (1993). here, it has been tried to investigate the mechanical behavior and the effect of soil being leached on settlement and strength of these ki...

the effect of arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi and plant growth promoting rhizobacteria, with the ability to produce acc deaminase enzyme, on water relationships and agronomic indices of sunflower (helianthus annuus l.) cultivars was investigated. the soil used was of an ec equal to 7.6 ds m-1. a greenhouse factorial experiment on the basis of a completely randomized block design with three levels ...

mechanisms of drought stress tolerance of gf677 rootstock, peach and almond hybrid, (prunus persica × prunus amygdalus) were studied under in vitro conditions. plantlets of gf677 rootstock were subcultured into the murashige and skoog (ms) solid proliferation medium containing 1 mg/l ba (6-benzyladenine) and 0.1 mg/l naa (naphthaline acetic acid) in four drought stress levels 0 (control), 10, 2...

introduction precipitation is one of the most important meteorological variables in comparison with other climatic parameters. it varies extremely over time and space. the occurrence of this climate phenomenon requires specific circumstances in environment. its accurate measurement is important to a wide range of decision makers including hydrologists, agriculturalists, industrialists and etc. ...

in general, spring cultivation of sugar beet is prevalent, but nowadays because of water sources limitation and also plants low water use efficiency in this time of cultivation, autumn cultivation is growing up. several assessments also have showed that in compare with spring cultivation, autumn cultivation of sugar beet has other benefits including reducing the likelihood of plant disease and ...

improving the processing and the recycled paper properties is one of permanent concern of papermaking. in this research, the effect of nanochitosan addition on the process and product quality made of writing and printing recycled fiber was investigated. being nano size and so its capability in access to the space between pulp suspension components and also its probable ability to make electrost...

the aim of this research was to survey of using soy protein isolates and tragacanth gum as egg substitutes in mayonnaise formulation. the mayonnaise prepared with difierent compositions of soy protein isolate, egg, and tragacanth by applying the optimal mixture design method and effect of this substitution on its stability, heat stability, viscosity, texture, physicochemical and sensory charact...

hybrid rice varieties are potentially higher yielding than the best inbred varieties and perform better under adverse conditions of drought and salinity. one of the major impediments for seed production of hybrid rice is incomplete panicle exsertion in the cytoplasmic male sterile lines. the unexserted spikelets which are left inside the flag leaf sheath remain unfertile. this research was focu...

introduction numerous studies have demonstrated the relationship between the amount of co2 in the atmosphere and climate change. in this respect, developed countries have an undeniable role and cause serious damage to earth environment throughout the world. ipcc’ forth evaluation report implies that adding greenhouse gases to the atmosphere during recent decades prevents the heat rays to emit w...

abstract:â green spaces, especially urban gardens have been a subject of study in many countries for a long time, but the subject has been mostly overlooked in iran. therefore, this study tries to analyze the changes in land use and how we can protect green spaces (gardens) in jahrom in line with sustainable development in 1996-2006. the data in this study were collected through local investiga...
