T his research is an attempt to determine the agronomic plan, shadow price and final value with an emphasis on optimization of water use in five main agricultural regions of Kerman province (Kerman, Baft, Bardsir, Bam, and Jiroft) and five crops (wheat, barley, potato, onion, and tomato). Analysis was based on three scenarios: (i) current planting conditions, (ii) profit maximization...

one of the core elements of water management and increase agricultural productivity is the efficient use of available resources. due to increasing demand for agricultural products, increase the productivity of scarce resources is essential. optimal utilization of these resources, in addition to meet the demand of the community as a major goal, can also increase operating income to be followed. ...

The extracellular polygalacturonases produced by Aureobasidium pullulans isolated from waters of the Danube river were partially purified and characterized. The pH optima of polygalacturonases produced in the first phases of cultivation (48 h) and after 10 d as well as their optima of temperature, thermal stabilities, molecular masses, isoelectric points, action pattern and ability to cleave po...

The behavior of embryonic murine lung cells on a basement membrane extract (Matrigel) was investigated. Single cell suspensions generated by trypsinization of lungs removed from day 12 embryos were plated on Matrigel and cultured for up to one week. The basement membrane extract was used as a gel, and as a wet or dried film. In all of these instances, organotypic arrangement of the embryonic lu...

Currently, water, as the most limiting factor in production, determines the priority of planting in different areas of Iran. Saffron is one of the good candidates for drought conditions since it has high economic value and low water requirements that can help with sustainable development. By identifying the factors influencing the decision on saffron cultivation and its expansion, appropriate p...

Background: The increase of the protein expression via ribosomal manipulation is one of the suggested cellular mechanisms involved in EnBase fed-batch mode of cultivation. However, this system has not been implemented for cytotoxic proteins.Objectives: Here, the expression pattern of α-Luffin, a ribosome inactivation protein (RIP) with an innate toxicity,...
