to investigate the effect of deficit irrigation on quantitative and qualitative yield of soybean cultivars, an experiment was conducted as split plots based on randomized complete block design with three replications at agricultural research farm, university of guilan, during 2009. main factors were included four irrigation levels based on potential moisture 30-35 (i1), 50-55 (i2), 70-75 (i3) c...

Objective: Zataria multiflora (ZM) is a plant with ethnopharmacological value which was recently tested to reduce symptoms of Alzheimer’s disease (AD). The aim of the present study was to determine the effect of ZM essential oil on spatial cognitive and noncognitive behavior, as well as hippocampal tau protein and tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNFα) concentrations in ra...

The objective of the present research was to develop cinnamon oil nanoemulsions using soy protein isolate and lecithin as food grade natural emulsifiers. For this purpose, stable cinnamon oil nanoemulsion (droplet diameter of 141.2 nm) prepared by ultrasonic emulsification. The minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) and the minimum bactericidal concentration (MBC) of free and nanoemulsified cin...

chemical composition and physicochemical properties of pumpkin seeds and fatty acids of their oil were determined. it was found that the seeds contained 41.59% oil and 25.4% protein. moisture, crude fiber, total ash, and carbohydrate contents were 5.2%, 5.34%, 2.49%, and 25.19%, respectively. the specific gravity, dynamic viscosity, and refractive index of the extracted pumpkin seed oil were 0....

considering high alkalinity of iranian soils and lack of availability of some nutrients in those conditions, sulfur consumption is one approach to increase the availability of insoluble nutrients especially in calcareous and alkaline soils. effectiveness of sulfur depends on activity of sulfur oxidizing bacteria especially thiobacillus genus (t). in order to study the qualitative yield and morp...

Fertilizer management plays an important role in obtaining satisfactory yields from maize. In addition, fertilizer management is essential for achieving sustainable agriculture and protecting the environment. This research was conducted by split plot experiment based on randomized complete block design with four replications. Main factor was integrated with chemical and biological fertilizers i...

in order to study the effect of different levels of the manure and foliar application of zn and mn fertilizers on the quantitative and qualitative yield of soybeans (var. williams), a factorial experiment was conducted in a randomized complete block design with three replications in 2012. treatments involved three levels of fertilizer: manure (zero as control; six and 12 t/ha), two levels of mn...
