In the present study we demonstrate that human monocytes activated by lipopolysaccharides (LPS) were able to produce high levels of interleukin 10 (I1-10), previously designated cytokine synthesis inhibitory factor (CSIF), in a dose dependent fashion. I1-10 was detectable 7 h after activation of the monocytes and maximal levels of I1-10 production were observed after 24--48 h. These kinetics in...

Climate change adversely affected agriculture production and become more serious concern for developing country like India water is one of the precious costly input used in hence an experiment was conducted at Agriculture Research Station, Achalpur under Dr. Panjabrao Deshmukh Krishi Vidyapeeth, Akola, situated 21° 18’ North latitude 77° 30’ to 35’ East longitudes with a subtropical climate. Th...

decreasing water loss and increasing the irrigation times are basic methods to develop agriculture, success in natural recourse projects, minimize the stress to planted bushes in natural fields and increase the productivity of soil and water sources. the use of super absorbent is one of these strategies to achieve these goals. the main purpose of this research was to study the effect of super a...

the effects of drought stress and different chimical and organic fertilizers systems were studied on wheat yeild. this experiment was conducted as split plot based on completely randomized block design (crbd) with four replications during 2009-2010. irrigation treatment was in i1(irrigation disruption from anthesis stage) and i2 (spike formation to harvesting) and i3 (full irrigation ,control t...

in this study, the performance of aquacrop model to predict yield production of winter wheat (roshan and gods varieties), water and solute balance of soil profile was evaluated under water and salinity stresses. field experiments were conducted with three levels of saline irrigation water including: s1, s2 and s3corresponding to 1.4, 4.5 and 9.6 ds/m, respectively, and four levels of irrigation...

Soil water, salinity and nitrogen content are three major factors affecting crop production in arid and semi-arid areas. This study was performed in two years of 2009 and 2010 in a semi-arid area in order to investigate the effects of irrigation water quantity (as main plot), quality (saline water, as sub-plot), nitrogen fertilizer (as sub-sub plot) and their interactions on growth and yiel...

in order to improve irrigation water productivity (wp) at rice production, a field experiment was conducted at shahid fozveh research station (esfahan region) during 2001-2003. experiment was arranged in a split plot design (rcbd) with three replications. the treatments were: three levels of irrigation managements including i1: permanent flooding under 3.5cm water during growth period, i2:perma...

The study was aimed at determining the most suitable irrigation schedule program for hemp grown fibers by using evaporation from free water surface (Eo), measured a Class A pan and related crop plant coefficient (Kc). experiment, carried out in Vojvodina, northern part of Republic Serbia, included three regimes: I1, I2, I3 corresponding, respectively, to daily an open two interrow spacings: RS1...
