For this purpose, an experiment was conducted to evaluate of morphological and nutritional traits on 10 rice genotypes. Analysis of variance showed a significant different among the genotypes for all traits. Onda, Gharib, Fajr and L2 genotypes had the highest ranks for nutritional quality. Also, the results showed that positive correlation between antioxidant capacity, phenolic content, soluble carbohydrate and Zn content, while there was the negative correlation between grain length and grain length to width ratio with above traits. Thus, the nutritional quality could be indirectly selected based on grain length. PCA analysis resulted five components that determined 89.22% of the total variation, so that scatter plot based on the two first components, the genotypes of Onda, Fajr, Gharib and L2 which have smaller grain length, have better nutritional quality. Therefore, these genotypes can be used in breeding programs.https://www.ijabbr.com/article_33589_b545c67c0b7286dd7257b43e3bf94313.pdfSami Publishing CompanyInternational Journal of Advanced Biological and Biomedical Research2383-27627120190301Physiology of parturition12183361110.26655/ijabbr.2019.1.2ENAmir Hussein Asgari SafdarM.Sc. students of animal physiology, Faculty of Agriculture, University of Tabriz, Tabriz, IranHussein Daghigh KiaAssistant Prof, Department of Animal Science, Faculty of Agriculture, University of Tabriz, Tabriz, IranRamin FarhadiM.Sc. students of animal physiology, Faculty of Agriculture, University of Tabriz, Tabriz, IranJournal Article20181014Labor is a physiological event involving a sequential, integrated set of changes within the myometrium, deciduas, and uterine cervix that occur gradually over a period of days to weeks. Biochemical connective tissue changes in the uterine cervix appear to precede uterine contractions and cervical dilation, and all of these events usually occur before rupture of the fetal membranes. In other word Parturition is the process of delivery of the fully grown fetus on the completion of the normal pregnancy period.https://www.ijabbr.com/article_33611_f4285097b56fc40f4c867018779da89d.pdfSami Publishing CompanyInternational Journal of Advanced Biological and Biomedical Research2383-27627120190301Effects of using radiation processing in nutrition science and their restriction: a review19293366210.26655/ijabbr.2019.1.3ENMohsen ZareiM.sc.Student of Animal Sciences, Faculty of Agriculture Razi University, Kermanshah, IranJournal Article20181017Isotopic and nuclear techniques play an important role in food and agriculture, health and industry.

College of Agriculture, University of Tehran, IranJournal Article20181024 <br />The purpose of this paper is to explore the influential factors on entrepreneurial spirit of wood and paper industries students in two universities, namely Agriculture and natural resources faculty of Tehran University and Shahid Rajaiee teacher training University. A sample of 100 students were selected from a target population of 572 students using the Cochran formula. The respondents were asked to provide their answers to a standardized questionnaire. Results indicated that from the students’ perspective such factors as motivation, providence and achievement propensity had the greatest impact on entrepreneurial spirit of the respondents whilst factors like internal control, exception ability and having systematic attitude had the least influence. Moreover concerning the effect of educational and academic factors on entrepreneurial spirit, the most effective items were respectively favorable access to computer and internet and learned and efficient instructors whereas the least effective items considered were degree orientation, students’ apprenticeships in executive environments and education at the university. The findings showed a significant positive relation at the significance level of 0.05 between the level of education and age with the creation of entrepreneurial spirit amongst students. Furthermore a significant positive relation was observed between educational and academic factors, propensity to achievement, risk taking and ambiguity toleration, control source and family with entrepreneurial spirit at the significance level of 0.01. Also the results of multiple regression analysis showed that 79.7%of entrepreneurial spirit (the dependent variable) variance was explained by such independent variables as educational and academic factors, achievement propensity, being innovative, risk taking and ambiguity toleration, control source and family.https://www.ijabbr.com/article_33656_d03f32a16417377842f4e9b2e18a6ef0.pdfSami Publishing CompanyInternational Journal of Advanced Biological and Biomedical Research2383-27627120190301The Analysis of Effective Factors on Non-Accepting of Organic Agriculture Products From the Viewpoint of Agricultural Experts (Case Study: Alborz province)57703365710.26655/ijabbr.2019.1.6ENMosa Azami1Assistant Professor, Department of Agricultural Extension & Education, Bu-Ali-Sina University, Hamedan, IranFeizollah Monavvari FardM.Sc.

Therefore, the general purpose of this research is the analysis of effective factors on not accepting organic agriculture. This research is an applied one and the method used is descriptive and is a survey. The statistical population includes all the agricultural exports who work in Jihad keshavarzi of Alborz province (N=110). Based on Morgan table we selected 100 people as the sample. the tool of research is a Questionnaire whose content & surface validity was approved by the professors of Tehran university and its reliability was verified by doing a guide study of Cranach’s Alpha (between 0.71 and 0.78). In order to analyze the data, SPSS was used. The results of the research show that most of the agriculture experts have positive Attitude toward the organic agriculture (62 %) and they believe that it is necessary for the realization of sustainable development in agriculture. From the experts' point of view, the most important reasons for not accept organic agriculture include: making no distinction between organic products and other products, inability in producing ideal production if the fertilizers aren't used, inability in controlling weeds and pests when pesticides are not used and the lack of farmers level of education.https://www.ijabbr.com/article_33657_d8909df19b5a4e5c0d58843bfb915c42.pdfSami Publishing CompanyInternational Journal of Advanced Biological and Biomedical Research2383-27627120190301Assessment of Empirical Methods of Runoff Estimation by Statistical test (Case study: BanadakSadat Watershed, Yazd Province)718633666ENKhabat KhosraviPh.D. student of Watershed management Engineering,Faculty of Natural Resources, Sari Agriculture Science and Natural Resources University,Sari, Mazandaran, IranHaidar MirzaiAssistant Profesor of Razi University, Faculty of Natural Resources, Kermanshah, Kermanshah, IranIman SalehPh.D. student of Watershed management Engineering,Faculty of Natural Resources, Sari Agriculture Science and Natural Resources University,Sari, Mazandaran, IranJournal Article20181120Runoff estimation resulted from precipitation is the basis of more study in various develop and exploit design from water resource, then its measure and calculation due to environmental bottlenecks, always have a plenty problem.

The present study aimed at evaluation of the Zarivar Lake using NSF- WQI as an indicator of water quality. WQI is a suitable tool to examine and classify spatial and temporal variations in water quality and pollution loads in a water body. Seven sites were selected in different parts of the lake for sampling. Water samples were taken and placed in dark bottle, kept in ice box to prevent any change in chemical properties of samples prior to transportation to the lab for further analyses. Nitrite, Nitrate, Orthophosphate, NH<sub>4</sub><sup>+</sup>, NH<sub>3</sub>, Iron, salinity, Electron Conductivity (EC) and pH were measured in all sites. Electron Conductivity was 295- 426 µS.cm<sup>-1</sup> and pH varied between 7.28- 8.35. Concentrations of examined chemicals were PO<sub>4</sub><sup>3-</sup>: 0.019-1.45 mg l<sup>-1</sup> ،NO3-:0.6 mg l<sup>-1</sup> ،NO2: 0.001-0.011 mg l<sup>-1</sup> ،NH<sub>4</sub><sup>+</sup> :< 0.11-11.33 mg l<sup>-1</sup> which indicated trophic status of the lake. Water quality assessment was carried out based on values obtained for nine factors including dissolved oxygen (DO), Fecal Coliform, BOD, pH, water temperature (<sup>o</sup>C), Phosphate, Nitrate, Total Suspended Solid (TSS) and turbidity. The highest value was recorded for Nitrate and lowest for fecal coliform. The study showed based on WQI indicator the Zarivar Lake is a low or slightly polluted basin with an average water quality.https://www.ijabbr.com/article_33668_83e1f04010538d4c5477f3fa2c40bb30.pdfSami Publishing CompanyInternational Journal of Advanced Biological and Biomedical Research2383-27627120190301The Effect of wastewater Sirjan golgohar industrial on the characteristics of cultivated soils in several species of pasture trees9810433669ENEhsan KashaniM.sc. Graduated of Natural Resources, College of Agriculture and Natural Resources, Islamic Azad University of Baft, IranJournal Article20181230Collection and reuse of wastewater and sewage in agriculture, natural resources and green environment is one way to conserve water resources and environmental. The aim of this study were to investigate the effects of wastewater Sirjan golgohar industrial on the characteristics of cultivated soils in several species of pasture trees. This study was performed at the Sirjan city which is located in southwest of kerman province (1766 meters above the sea level, 29<sup>º</sup> 27 N latitude and 55<sup>º</sup> 40 E longitude, and 162 mm annual rainfall). This experiment was conducted a completely randomized design block testing in split factorial with 5 treatment and 3 replicated. In this study, we used different ratios of water and wastewater including control (normal water), 25% wastewater + 75% water, 50% water + 50% wastewater, 75% wastewater + 25% water and wastewater of sirjan golgohar industrial. These treatment were used for irrigation of several species of pasture trees (<em>Pestasia atlantica, Amygdalus scoparia, Amygdalus elaegnifolia and Acer monspessulanum</em>). Data were analyzed by ANOVA using general linear model procedure of SPSS software. Significance between means was tested using Duncan Multiple Range Test. A probability value of P ≤ 0.05 indicated that the difference was statistically significant. Results showed that the difference between mean treatments in the study was significant (P<0.05). Comparison of heavy metal concentrations in soil before and after treatment showed that the using of wastewater sirjan golgohar industrial were increased heavy metals in soils. Between treatments in terms of ECe, SAR and pH was observed difference significantly, the amount of ECe, SAR was highest and lowest in control and wastewater treatments respectively. With the increasing of waste, the amount of organic materials have also increased, the treatment with wastewater have the largest amount of organic matter. In generally, we can conclude that the using of wastewater treatments due to decrease salting and increase organic matter than to control treatments can improve the soil for the plants.https://www.ijabbr.com/article_33669_beeb985cbf4fca17819238bd57f0ac29.pdf
