in the present study, effects of iron excess treatments (0, 250, 500 mg l-1) were evaluated in four rice varieties including shafagh, khazar, hashemi and sadri in pot condition. afterward, effects of iron excess (10 and 250 mg l-1) were further investigated in the most resistant variety (shafagh) in sand culture with yoshida nutrient solution. this experiment was arranged as factorial in rcbd w...

Sunflower (Helictnthur annuus L. cvs Mehr Shafagh) seedlings were grown in nutrient solutions containing 20.5 to 70.4 mM NaCl and 0 as the control. The effects of salinity on developmental changes occurring in the shoot apices of plants were studied. At 20.5 mM NaCI concentration, the leaf emergence rate and plastochron index of Shafagh increased significantly, but this phenomenon was not o...

Background: Physical characteristics of crops play an important role in designing the required machinery and apparatus for planting, harvesting, transport, processing and also storing. The aim of this study was to determine physical characteristics of some native rice varieties cultivated in northern Iran, namely Gerde, Shafagh, Tarom-e-Hashemi, Shiroodi and Keshvari. Methods: Some geometrical...

rice is usually harvested at a high moisture content therefore it must be subjected to drying till the moisture below 14% and for longer storing till 12%. in this project a fixed laboratory dryer was selected for drying three varieties with three range of temperature 40, 50 and 60 c and two range of final moisture content 12% and 10% as completely randomized design. correlation of crack kernel ...

the present study reports on the first troglophilic terrestrial isopod from iran. protracheoniscus faramarzi n. sp. was found in shafagh cave, southern iran. the new species is described and its diagnostic characters are figured. this species is distinguished by the long and narrow antennae, the reduced body pigmentation and the number of ommatidia

in recent years most activities of rice research institute, has been focused on introduction of high yielding as well as high quality rice cultivars. in 1994, 185 lines introduced from international rice research institute (irri) to rice research institute of iran (rrii), were evaluated in observational and statistical experiments in rrii for two years, and eight lines were selected. these line...

Zn deficiency is one of the most important micro-nutritional disorders in lowland rice. In this work, fourteen Iranian rice cultivars were studied in the field as well as in solution culture experiments to determine genotypic differences for traits characterizing Zn efficiency. A low uptake efficiency was observed in some (Onda and Kadoos) of the Zn-inefficient genotypes. A relatively high corr...

to investigate the effect of nitrogen rate and split form of application on dry matter remobilization among different rice cultivars, a field experiment was carried out in the rice research institute of iran (amol) – during 2005. a split–split experiment on the basis of a randomized complete block design with 3 replications involving 3 factors was employed in which fertilizer rates (100, 150 an...
