Background & aim: Saline lands can be utilized by planting native medicinal plants tolerant to salinity. The quantity and quality these plants are changed during various seasons in agriculture systems. Thus, this study carried out under salinity stress in order to examine the effect of sowing in two seasons on growth characteristics and essential oil  components of ajowan (Carum capticum </...

Purpose: Wearing high-heel shoes has become a habit among women of the present era. Statistics show that around 60% of women wear high-heel shoes at least thrice a week. High-heel shoes cause postural changes and damage body joints. The present study was conducted to assess the effect of high-heel shoes on the head protrusion angle. Methods: This study was conducted at University of Social Wel...

The gravitational component of water potential and frictional resistance during transpiration lead to substantial reductions in leaf water potential (Psi(l)) near the tops of tall trees, which can influence both leaf growth and physiology. We examined the relationships between morphological features and gas exchange in foliage collected near the tops of Douglas-fir (Pseudotsuga menziesii (Mirb....

in order to investigate the effect of rhizobium bacteria, mycorrhiza fungi and foliar application of urea on qualitative and quantitative traits of soybean an experiment was conducted based on randomized complete block design with four replications. the experiment included six treatments as: control (c), rhizobium bacteria (r), rhizobium bacteria + mycorrhiza fungi (r+m), rhizobium bacteria + f...

The aim of this work is to evaluate the risk of an external attack to the network of our Department in the University. Thus, this work wants to complement the results in [M. Benini, S. Sicari, A mathematical framework for risk assessment, in: H. Labiod, M. Badra (Eds.), New Technologies, Mobility and Security, Signals and Communication, Springer-Verlag, May 2007, pp. 459–469] where a mathematic...

A procedure is described for incorporating stand age, or stage in development, into the widely used stocking guides based on the crown competition factor (CCF). A simple model that predicts dbh of individual trees from crown projection area and total height is derived from a three-dimensional relationship between cumulative foliage production (crown volume) and total volume of the main stem. Pr...
