the green revolution fulfilled the food demand of crowded millions. from the time of green revolution to till date high yielding and fertilizer responsive varieties have evolved to increase the production per unit area. to improve the productivity only major nutrients are concentrated almost in all crops. though the importance of micronutrient realized during past decades in most of the crops b...

common variable immunodeficiency (cvid) and selective iga deficiency (sigad) are the most common primary antibody deficiencies. these two diseases may have coincidence in one family and sigad can progress to cvid which suggest common underlying genetic defects between sigad and cvid. this study was designed to find the prevalence of multiple cases in families of iranian patients with cvid or si...

fennel (foeniculum vulgare mill.) is widely cultivated for its edible, strongly-flavored leaves, fruits, seeds andmedicinal uses. as the wild and cultivated plants are influenced by environmental stresses, the effects of salt (25, 50 and 75 mm nacl), nitrogen and iron deficiency (0 n, 0.5 n of hoagland’s solution, 0 fe and 0.5 fe ofhoagland’s solution), 2°c cold (2, 3 and 4 h) and drought (3, 5...

in this paper, some results of singh, gopalakrishna and kulkarni (1970s) have been extended to higher order derivatives. it has been shown that, if $sumlimits_{a}theta(a, f)=2$ holds for a meromorphic function $f(z)$ of finite order, then for any positive integer $k,$ $t(r, f)sim t(r, f^{(k)}), rrightarrowinfty$ if $theta(infty, f)=1$ and $t(r, f)sim (k+1)t(r, f^{(k)}), rrightarrowinfty$ if $th...

background : iodine deficiency produces the spectrum of iodine deficiency disorders (idds) including endemic goiter, hypothyroidism, cretinism and congenital anomalies. other factors, including goitrogens and micronutrient deficiencies may influence the prevalence and severity of idds and response to iodine supplementation. an ssociation between zinc and goiter has previously been reported. met...
