in order to evaluate of pea, bean, lentil, wheat, rape and barley sensitivity to foramsulforun, rimsulforun and nicosulforun herbicides soil residue, a pot experiment was conducted at ferdowsi university of mashhad. experimental type was completely randomized design in factorial arrangement with three replications. treatments included herbicides (rimsulforun, foramsulforun and nicosulforun), he...

A 3- years (2015, 2016 and 2017) field study was carried out at National Wheat Research Program, Bhirahawa, Rupandehi, Nepal to evaluate the influence of crop residues and nitrogen levels on rice. The experiment was conducted in split plot design with three replications. Main plots were two crop residue levels (with crop residues of 30 cm wheat stubble and without crop residues) and sub plots c...

a field study was conducted at the college of agriculture, shiraz university, shiraz, iran to evaluate the effect of different crop residue and nitrogen rates on yield and yield components of two dryland wheat (triticum aestivum l.) cultivars. the experiment was conducted as a strip split plot with four replications. vertical plots included two dryland current wheat cultivars (azar2 and nicknej...

laboratory-scale experiments were conducted to evaluate the joint action toxicity and biochemicaleffects of sublethal concentrations of forcados light crude oil (flco) and three dispersants against clariasgariepinus over a period of 28 days. the derived 96hrlc50 values revealed that the dispersant, ds/tt/066(0.03ml/l) was the most toxic, followed by dispersant, oc/tt/osi (0.19ml/l), flco (5.06m...

The United States Environmental Protection Agency (US EPA) will require some U.S. drinking water distribution systems (DWDS) to monitor nonradioactive strontium (Sr(2+)) in drinking water in 2013. Iron corrosion products from four DWDS were examined to assess the potential for Sr(2+) binding and release. Average Sr(2+) concentrations in the outermost layer of the corrosion products ranged from ...

The sex-ratio trait is the production of female-biased progenies due to X-linked meiotic drive in males of several Drosophila species. The driving X chromosome (called SR) is not fixed due to at least two stabilizing factors: natural selection (favoring ST, the nondriving standard X) and drive suppression by either Y-linked or autosomal genes. The evolution of autosomal suppression is explained...

pesticides are one of the major pollutants in the environment. the residue of pesticides has been reported to be at a critical level in agricultural crops, especially in greenhouse crops. tomato is considered as an important vegetable in iranian food basket and is produced in fields and greenhouses. so, the current study aimed to assess diazinon and oxydemeton-methyl levels in tomatoes sampled ...

The anticonvulsant effect of cannabinoids has been shown to be mediated through activation of the cannabinoid CB(1) receptor. This study was initiated to evaluate the effects of endogenously occurring cannabinoids (endocannabinoids) on seizure severity and threshold. The anticonvulsant effect of the endocannabinoid, arachidonylethanolamine (anandamide), was evaluated in the maximal electroshock...

To effectively utilize the solid waste-soda residue (SR) and fly ash (FA), a mixture of 70% SR, 20% FA, 10% clay was formed to produce soda soil (SRS). By adding cement and/or lime, four different SRS proportions were prepared. The compaction properties, mechanical dry–wet stability. Furthermore, mechanisms explored, improvement effect efficiency lime on performance analyzed. results show that ...

Scavenger receptor, class B, type I (SR-BI), controls high-density lipoprotein (HDL) metabolism by mediating cellular selective uptake of lipids from HDL without the concomitant degradation of the lipoprotein particle. We previously identified in a high-throughput chemical screen of intact cells five compounds (BLT-1-5) that inhibit SR-BI-dependent lipid transport from HDL, but do not block HDL...
