Information on reproductive performance and body condition in white-tailed deer (Odocoileus virginianus) was obtained in 1981-83 for the glaciated farmland and unglaciated hill country regions of Ohio. Uterine analysis of 275 farmland does and 129 hill country does showed that farmland fawns had a higher reproductive rate (0.85 fetus/doe) than did hill country fawn does (0.62 fetus/doe). Fetuse...

Sesame seeds are flat and oval, with poor mobility, easily blocking a seed tube reducing seeding quality. An air-assisted seed-guiding device was designed for hill-seeding centralized seed-metering sesame. The core of the is distribution manifold that could restrict trajectory make move in same direction as airflow. Six-factor three-level orthogonal tests were carried out using CFD–DEM coupling...

this descriptive study is carried out to determine the effectiveness of family planning programmes in iran for years 1991-96. the study revealed the following outlines: contraceptives prevalence rates increased from 42% to 67% during years 1991-96. zaro couples years of protection increased for norplant, injectable contraceptive, iud, vasectomy and tubectomy, but for candom it is decreased in y...

objective: in order to study the effect of drought stress, salicylic acid (sa) and  jasmonic acid (ja) foliar application on hill reaction and photosynthetic pigments. methods:experiment was done as factorial on the basis of completely randomized design in 4 replications. irrigation in 3 levels (fc,   fc and  fc), salicylic acid in 2 levels (0 and 0.5 mm) and jasmonic acid in 2 levels (0 and 50...

his paper seeks to understand the influence of different levels of fertilizer nutrients on annual yield of cardamom in Cardamom Hill Reserves (CHR) under rain fed situation. Field experiment conducted at CRS, Pampadumpara during 1994-2002 on nutrient levels with sources revealed that increasing the levels of nitrogen, phosphorus and potassium had increased the yields of cardamom up to 125: 125:...

Since the discovery of the Hill reaction (9, 10, 11, 12), there has accumulated considerable evidence (5, 7, 10, 14, 15, 16, 17, 20) indicating that it is indeed a partial reaction of photosynthesis. And in particular there is evidence that the normally limiting dark reactions of photosynthesis and the Hill reaction are identical (5, 7). Numerous substances inhibitory to photosynthesis and the ...

an experiment was conducted as a split – split plot in form of a randomized block design with four replications in cilakhor region of iran in 2004. the main factor was the seed planting date with three levels (5, 12 and 25 april), sub factor was the crop density with two levels (160,000 and 250,000 pl/ha) and sub-sub factor was the crop arrangement with two levels (equidistant and non-equidista...

the ancient hills are the human’s close and far activities sense. these places may be the transit camp survivors or ruins towns or villages. this paper studies the archaeology of the ancient hill of meymanabad using micromorphology methods. this hill situated in robat kareem_in south-east village called meymantabad. the result has showed that before the establishment of the site occupations the...

Hall and Welsh (1984) established the best attainable rate of convergence for estimates of a positive extreme value index under a certain second order condition implying that the distribution function of the maximum of n random variables converges at an algebraic rate to the pertaining extreme value distribution. As a rst generalization we obtain a surprisingly sharp bound on the estimation err...
