        3 - An Improved Flower Pollination Algorithm with AdaBoost Algorithm for Feature Selection in Text Documents Classification
        Hiwa Majidpour Farhad Soleimanian Gharehchopogh

        In recent years, production of text documents has seen an exponential growth, which is the reason why their proper classification seems necessary for better access. One of the main problems of classifying text documents is working in high-dimensional feature space. Feature Selection (FS) is one of the ways to reduce the number of text attributes. So, working with a great bulk of the feature space without FS increases the computational cost which is a function of the length of the vector, and also, it helps to remove irrelevant attributes. The general approach in this paper combines the hybrid of Flower Pollination Algorithm (FPA) with Ada-Boost algorithm. The FPA is used for FS and the Ada-Boost is used for classification of text documents. Tests were conducted on Reuters-21578, WEBKB and CADE 12 datasets. The results show that the hybrid model has higher detection accuracy in FS compared with Ada-Boost algorithm with model. And comparisons are indicative of higher detection accuracy of the proposed model compared with KNN-K-Means, NB-K-Means and learning models. تفاصيل المقالة

        The impact of phenylphthalamic acid (PPA) rates including 0 (PPA0), 1000 (PPA1000), 2000 (PPA2000) or 3000 (PPA3000) mgL-1 and perfect fertilizer rates including 0 (PF0), 100 (PF100), 200 (PF200) and 300 (PF300) mgL-1 was studied on vegetative and reproductive growth of ornamental pepper plants. To realize this, a factorial experiment was conducted in a Completely Randomized Design with three replications. It was found that the interaction between &lsquo;PPA &times; PF&rsquo; improved the measured traits; so that the shortest time to flower initiation (55.40 day), the shortest time to fruit set (62.93 day) and the highest fruit number (98.12 fruit) were related to the application of &lsquo;PPA2000 &times; PF200&rsquo;. Plants treated with &lsquo;PPA2000 &times; PF300&rsquo; exhibited the most number of flowers (117.36), number of flowering stems (7.4), diameter of flowering stem (3.7 mm), plant height (45.83 cm), fruit fresh weight (6.71 g), fruit dry weight (3.79 g), plant fresh weight (21.96 g) and plant dry weight (15.17 g). Also, this treatment exhibited the highest fruit anthocyanin content and total chlorophyll. Conclusively, the application of &lsquo;PPA2000&times;PF200&rsquo; is recommended because of the lower consumption of perfect fertilizer and the greater effect on traits having a beautiful and economic value for ornamental peppers. تفاصيل المقالة

        Phalaenopsis is an important genus of orchids that is grown for economical production of cut flower and potted plants. The objective of this study is the evaluation of correlation between morphological and physiological traits of self and cross-pollination of 5 varieties of Phalaenopsis orchid. Some morphological traits were measured: Capsule length (CL), capsule volume (CV), weight of seeds in capsule (WSC), full weight of capsule (FWC) and empty weight of capsule (EWC) and physiological traits: Time to first pollination symptom (TPS), time to capsule swelling (TCS) and capsule ripening (CR). The results showed that correlation (canonical r) was 0.91 in first pair canonical variables; second and third pair canonical variables had correlation 0.68 and 0.30, respectively. The first canonical variable in physiological traits revealed 66.1% variation of physiological variables. Special values were 0.820, 1.388 and 4.850 for Wilks' Lambda, Pillai's Trace and Roy's Greatest Root, respectively. Canonical correlation was significant for physiological and morphological characteristics in all statistical tests. The first canonical variables in physiological characteristics had positive correlation with TCS and TPS, so it was resulted that if TCS was fewer, TPS and CR characteristics were fewer. In pollinated varieties, the lowest TCS belonged to Nottingham&times; Nottingham and Bucharest &times; Nottingham; and the most CR belonged to Dubrovnik&times; Dubrovnik and Memphis&times; Dubrovnik of pollination states; Therefore, it can be concluded that white and yellow female parent require fewer and more days for capsule swelling respectively. تفاصيل المقالة

        Low seed yield is a limiting factor for cross breeding and hybrid seed production in cyclamen. This study was performed to investigate pollen germination and its relation to cross-pollination success and fruit set in this plant. In order to achieve a high level of pollen germination, the effect of different concentrations of chemical compounds were examined on in vitro pollen germination of cyclamen in modified Brewbaker and Kwack medium, containing sucrose (10 and 20%), calcium nitrate (0, 200 and 300 mg l-1), and boric acid (0, 100 and 200mg l-1 ) at two pH levels (5.5 and 6.5). Maximum pollen germination was obtained in media containing higher concentration of calcium and boron regardless of sucrose concentration and pH level. Pollen germination percentage was genotype-dependent. Cross-pollination was performed among four different genotypes characterized by various pollen germination percentages. There was a direct correlation between cross-pollination success and pollen germination percentage. Genotypes with 30% higher pollen germination led to 10% increase in fruit set. تفاصيل المقالة

        Before starting any classical breeding program on plants, it is necessary to dominate the fertilization behavior of that plant. Despite a large number of Salvia species in the flora of Iran, there is little information about the breeding system of this genus. In the current study, the flower specifications and breeding system of seven Salvia species (Lamiaceae) have been described during 2017-2018. Plants phenology and some flower features were recorded as well as hand pollination used for fertility investigation. The results showed that all species had long flowering periods. The highest flowering period (41 days) was observed in S. virgata. The most frequent pollinators were bees and flies. Salvia virgata and S. nemorosa showed about 90% survival to the new habitat. Two species including S. atropatana and S. syriaca had heterostylous flowers (long-styled morph). The results of manual pollination indicated that open pollination provided the best treatment with the highest average of seed set (73.63%) in all species. The seed set in the xenogamy treatment of different species and accessions was in the range of 10.2 (S. syriaca) to 32.5% (S. frigida). It was observed that seed set among different species in geitonogamy andspontaneous autogamy varied widely from 2.60 - 17.30% and 2.98 - 12.18%, respectively. It was concluded that Salvia species in the present study were relatively self-incompatible (ISI) and out-cross. They need pollinators to adequate fertility. They did not observe any correlations between ISI and heteromorphy. تفاصيل المقالة

        This study was carried out in the Khatam, Yazd province, Iran from the beginning of 2014 to the end of 2015. Phenological traits and pollen properties of some male pistachio genotypes &lsquo;A1&rsquo;, &lsquo;A2&rsquo;, &lsquo;A3&rsquo;, &lsquo;A4&rsquo;, &lsquo;A5&rsquo;, &lsquo;A6&rsquo;, &lsquo;A7&rsquo;, &lsquo;A8&rsquo;, &lsquo;A9&rsquo;, &lsquo;N1&rsquo;, &lsquo;Mh1&rsquo;, &lsquo;G1&rsquo;, &lsquo;M1&rsquo;, &lsquo;M2&rsquo;, and &lsquo;F1&rsquo; were surveyed. To find the effect of pollen source on the nut traits of the resulting seeds as well as the initial fruit set, Xenia and Metaxenia were evaluated. Moreover, pistillate flowers of the &lsquo;Akbari&rsquo; cultivar were crossed with different pollen sources. Results showed that pollen germination of male pistachio genotypes was various. Among all of the pistachio male genotypes, the highest pollen germination percentage was obtained from &lsquo;M1&rsquo; (92.66%) followed by &lsquo;Mh1&rsquo; (86.66%) and &lsquo;G1&rsquo; (86.00%). There were also significant differences between cluster and pollen weight of different pollen sources. Based on our findings, among the studied genotypes, &lsquo;M1&rsquo; had the longest pollen tube 391.6 (&mu;m), as well as the maximum pollen tube growth rate of 39 (&mu;m h-1). The longest flowering periods were recorded to be 10 days in &lsquo;M1&rsquo; and 7 days in &lsquo;Mh1&rsquo;, while the shortest period was 4 days in genotype &lsquo;A5&rsquo; and &lsquo;A3&rsquo;. A significant correlation was found between pollen grain characteristics and initial fruit set, pistachio ounce, nut blanking, and as well malformed fruits. Based on the results pollens of genotype &lsquo;M1&rsquo; decreased the nut blanking and malformed fruits in &lsquo;Akbari&rsquo; cultivar, pollens of genotype &lsquo;Mh1&rsquo; improved the pistachio ounce, and genotype &lsquo;G1&rsquo; increased the initial fruit set. تفاصيل المقالة

        Cashew nuts are highly demandable due to their nutritional value and utility. However, yield is below the optimum level. Several strategies were deployed to overcome its low productivity, like artificial hybridization, hormone treatment and bee management. Here, for the first time, we assessed the impact of vitamin (e.g., folic acid) treatment and anthropophily pollination on cashew yield. We sprayed vitamins started before the blooming period and continued through the flowering period; recorded flowering patterns; performed hand-pollination; recorded fruit set and fruit quality parameters for different systems at the Vidyasagar University campus (in the Paschim Medinipur district, West Bengal, India), during 2021&ndash;2023. Vitamin treatment significantly increased the number of flowers (both hermaphrodite and male flowers) development. Anthropophily pollination enhanced fruit set and nut quality (e.g., weight, length and breadth). Combined with vitamin treatment and anthropophily, it increases nut yield approximately five times compared to a non-manipulated system. While an additional cost is needed for human pollinators, the benefit-to-cost ratio in anthropophily pollination was high (i.e., 1.84: 1). Therefore, non-traditional human pollinators (i.e. anthropophily pollination) in addition to growth promoters (e.g., vitamins) utilization will be an effective strategy to increase the nut yield of cashew trees. تفاصيل المقالة

        Self-incompatibility has been studied by using controlled pollination, pollen tube growth and PCR methods in the Iranian almond &lsquo;Mamaei.&rsquo;. Pollen tube growth and fruit set following self and cross-pollination treatments were evaluated. The percentage of initial and final fruit set was determined for each treatment at 30 and 60 days after controlled pollination. Pollen germination and pollen tube growth were assessed by fluorescence microscopy at different times after self and cross pollination. Results showed that the percentage of the final fruit set was 0% after self-pollination, while values of 16.34%, 17.22%, 19.12%, and 21.15% were determined after cross-pollination with &lsquo;Azar&rsquo;, &lsquo;Rabie&rsquo;, &lsquo;Shahrood-21&rsquo;, and &lsquo;Sefied&rsquo; cultivars as pollen sources, respectively. After 192 hours, observation of pollen tube growth showed that the percentage of reached pollen tubes at the style base from cross-pollination was significant but there were not any reached pollen tubes from self-pollination. According to the results of controlled pollination and pollen tube growth &lsquo;Mamaei&rsquo; is self-incompatible. S-RNase assay was used to confirm these results. PCR amplification of genomic DNA from &lsquo;Mamaei&rsquo; with EM-PC2consFD and EM-PC3consRD primers revealed the presence of two DNA fragments of sizes around 850 bp and 1250 bp on agarose gels. The size of the smaller fragment is similar to that of S25 almond RNase, while the size of the other fragment is different from all S1-S30 RNase alleles. S-genotype can be regarded as S25S x , with Sx being a new SRNase allele. تفاصيل المقالة

        This study was conducted to determine the best pollinizer for five selected pecan cultivars in southwest of Iran at Safiabad Agricultural Research Center in 2014-2015. The cultivars included: 'GraTex', '10J', 'Wichita 6J', 'GraKing', 'Choctaw' as pollinated cultivars (♀) and 'GraTex', 'Peruque', 'Comanche 4M', '10J', 'Wichita 6J', 'Mohawk', 'Mahan', 'Stuart 2J', '3J', 'Stuart 4J', 'GraKing', 'Choctaw', 'Apache', '6M', 'Wichita 7J' and 'Comanche 5M.' as pollinizer cultivars (♂). In the first step, a pollination chart of cultivars was determined in two years. The pollination chart of cultivars showed that all the cultivars investigated during this study were dichogamous and also protogynous except for the 'Peruque'. &lsquo;GraKing&rsquo; had the longest duration of shedding pollen. Pollination chart showed that 'Peruque', &lsquo;GraKing&rsquo;, and 'Stuart 2J' had flowering overlap with the selected cultivars. Pollen germination test showed that the germination ability was different among the cultivars. It was 45% for 'GraKing' and 35% for 'Peruque', which were both recommended as pollinizers in this study. '6M', 'GraTex' and 'Stuart 4J' cultivars had the highest pollen germination percentage of 65%, 60% and 60%, respectively. The results of controlled pollinationtest showed that different pollen sources had no significant effect on nuts per cluster but self-pollinated all of the cultivars significantly reduced fruit set in first and second years. Based on the present research, pollination in pecan orchard was necessary for adequate yield. Also, 'Peruque', 'GraKing' and 'Stuart 2J' were the best pollinizers for five selected cultivars in southwest of Iran. تفاصيل المقالة

        In 2007 and 2008, the influence of pollen source on the shell and kernel traits of resulting seeds and on fruit set was examined to evaluate the potential for Xenia or Metaxenia in Persian walnut. Pistillate flowers of &lsquo;Jamal&rsquo;, &lsquo;Chandler&rsquo;, &lsquo;Hartley&rsquo; and &lsquo;Pedro&rsquo; were crossed with the pollen of &lsquo;Serr&rsquo;, &lsquo;Z60&rsquo; and &lsquo;Damavand&rsquo;. The pistillate flowers on each female parent were covered about one week before starting the reception period of the flowers, and the bags remained 7-10 days after pollination. The catkins of the male parents were collected just prior to pollen shedding, and they were kept in room temperature for 24- 48 hours. Collected pollen was refrigerated until use. Pollination was done when the stigmas were expanded and were pinkish in color. Data recording were started after removing the bags and measuring the percent of fruit set and recording the fruit growth and time of ripening. The fruits, nut and kernel weight, length, diameter, length to diameter, shell thickness, shell weight and kernel percentage were evaluated after harvest. The result showed that nut and kernel diameter, kernel weight, length to diameter, shell-thickness and shell weight were affected by pollen source. There were also significant differences in the fruit set of the different pollen parents. Pollens of &lsquo;Damavand&rsquo; and &lsquo;Z60&rsquo; significantly decreased the nut diameter and weight in some female parents. Total fat and protein content of kernels were significantly affected by the type of pollen parent. تفاصيل المقالة

        Self-incompatibility is one of the most important difficulties in almond production which reduce fruit set dramatically and makes orchard management difficult. Therefore, breeding almond to produce self-compatible genotypes is very important. In this research identification and screening of 86 almond progenies obtained from selfing Touno after the self-pollination by PCR reaction with specific primers of CEBASf and AS1. PCR results confirmed the situation of self-compatible hybrids. In addition, it indicated that, frequencies of Sf, and S1 was 100% and 50% in progenies respectively. Self-compatible hybrids had been identified that can be used in almond breeding programs particularly to development the monoculture of almond orchards. So to identify and screening homozygous self-compatibility almonds be capable of be another step towards creating monoculture of almond and use in breeding programs further. تفاصيل المقالة
