2 - Explanation of Effective Cultural Policies on Culture-Based Urban Regeneration(with Emphasis on the Experiences of Urban Regeneration, Istanbul, Turkey)
Ali Karimzadeh Seyyed Kamaladdin Shahriari مهیار اردشیریThe institutionalization of cultural events play an important role in stabilizing approach to urban regeneration and improving environmental quality as a factor for heritage protection, restoration and rehabilitation of physical structures, new design and new functions MoreThe institutionalization of cultural events play an important role in stabilizing approach to urban regeneration and improving environmental quality as a factor for heritage protection, restoration and rehabilitation of physical structures, new design and new functions in line with the previous and the arrival of new structures. The cultural regeneration of a culture as a development strategy is very important in the local and global scale. Since the 1970s, many European cities, some sort of restructuring was unexpected that the reasons may be handling industry and consequently employment, migration, urban middle class to the suburbs, changing patterns of employment, the development of shopping centers outside the cities and increasing dependence on private car ownership. In the 70's decade, the manufacturing sector, followed by urban decline and governments attempt to shift to a service economy, including the factors that cause changes in the theory of politicians in the 80's decade, which for the first time, culture as a tool of urban regeneration and economic problems were caused. Due to concerns of the finance, the arts and creative industries in particular emerged quickly led to economic development. Taking into account this new reality, many cities were forced together in the quest for uniqueness of the cultural, human and physical advantage over their competition to emphasize to other cities. This competition between cities in an effort to attract and deploy them in the field of hi-tech industries, as well as private sector investment and become a central part in national and international tourism and culture reflected. Increased competition led many in the policy with the aim of recreating the index of cultural distinctions from other cities, driven, in which the cultures plays a key role in urban regeneration policies. The main objective of this research is to develop a conceptual framework in order to explain the policies, culture-based urban regeneration and cultural factors affecting urban regeneration. In this regard, this study seeks to answer the question, "What are the cultural policies affecting urban regeneration?" Then, the approaches and cultural policies, and at the end of the components such as the "cultural uses", "urban cultural activities in the public space", "combines urban design creative cultural activities", "protection of cultural heritage" and "cultural tourism" as key measures of culture-based urban regeneration, urban regeneration project has introduced a three comparative tests were in Istanbul, Turkey. In this paper, the strategy of logical reasoning is used as a research strategy. This article is largely descriptive, sowe will attempt to review the concepts of urban renewal, cultural policy effectively introduced and the role and function in culture-based urban regeneration scrutiny and thus the basis for the continuation and identify pathways towards cultural policy affecting culture-based urban regeneration are provided. The skill of reading and studding documents based on the contents of the books, articles and documents as tools for research in relation to urban regeneration projects in the study sample were used.

Indicators of urban poverty and deteriorated quality of life are visible in such neighborhoods. Actually these declined areas do not have the ability to compete or exchange economic, social or cultural benefits with other part of cities and other urban areas without government support. Social sustainability is a manifestation of sustainable development, which in recent years has gained increased recognition as a fundamental component of sustainable development, beginning to receive political and institutional endorsement within the sustainable development agenda, and the sustainable urban regeneration discourse.Moreover, regeneration is considered as one of the most significant, most effective approaches to improve and renovate urban neighborhoods. Urban regeneration tackles "quality of life" issues in communities through working to narrow the gap between the most disadvantaged neighborhoods and the rest of society. In this policy debate often an area­based approach, integrating horizontal policies, with sustainable perspectives, collaborative inhabitants, is advocated. The aim of this analytical review is to establish the dimensions and components of urban community regeneration, its substantial principles, and supporting policies with an eye on social sustainability, and its conceptual framework. In line with its goals, this policy study is a library and document research involving content analysis of theoretical texts. Furthermore, drawing on the Delphi method and based on a conceptual model, an analysis concerned with community regeneration was carried out assuming a social sustainability approach.Also, the opinion of experts rating 4 aspects and 21 factors derived from theoretical principles were used to finalize the community regeneration model.The findings are suggesting that the principles extracted from an initial literature review comprised social participation, social capital, social composition, social coherence, sustainable policy (governance), welfare and quality of life, the environment, services and housing, preserving the identity and cultural heritage, security and wellbeing, being community-based, and equal access (to housing, services, open spaces, jobs, resources, etc.) can be classified into four groups (sustainable environment and space, sustainable community, sustainable economy, and governance). Of the 21 factors identified through the literature review, and according to the experts’ opinions, the sense of belonging, sustainable transportation, and information systems are the essential criteria, whereas the remaining ones except resilience received an acceptable score in the hierarchy of the criteria. Based on the nine principles extracted in this study, a conceptual model was presented in whose aspects the factors feature a significant order. At the conclusion this article presented, 32 supporting policies which can be used in the process of neighborhood regeneration in order to improve social sustainability. Concurrent attention to these strategies as a balanced set of issues is important. Because the fulfillment of each policy without considering the others will complicate the situation of the declined neighborhood and its local community. Moreover involvement of local communities during the process, is the key success point of the neighborhood regeneration programs. Manuscript profile -

4 - Investigating the Effect of Regeneration-led gentrification in Inefficient neighborhoods; a comparative study of Atabak and Khani-Abad neighborhoods in Tehran
Mohamad Massoud Bahador Zamani Hosein Ebrahim RezagahGentrification as an important phenomenon in most of the world's cities, both developed and developing, is a newfound concept first emerged in the 60's. This phenomenon implies the replacement of lower classes by the middle classes in urban areas. This is more common in MoreGentrification as an important phenomenon in most of the world's cities, both developed and developing, is a newfound concept first emerged in the 60's. This phenomenon implies the replacement of lower classes by the middle classes in urban areas. This is more common in the central and older neighborhoods, which, over time, have gathered the lower strata of society. Many cities in Iran, including Tehran, contain physically inefficient areas. Because of physical problems, these areas are mainly secure locations for those classes who do not have the tendency or power to switch to areas with fewer difficulties. In these areas, along with undeniable social problems, intra-neighborhood relations and social capitals are bold and strong. Other prominent features of these areas are the proximity to commercial and administrative centers and, in general, to the city's work and activity centers. There are middle and upper classes in such cities who -for various reasons, such as time and cost saving- are interested in living close to the work and activity centers; residential areas at the margin of activity areas are of great desirability for these people. Some of the most important reasons for the decreased attraction of these areas as the target of immigration for middle classes are physical problems and weak public services and facilities. Improving the physical condition of these areas will lead to an increase in demand for housing by middle and upper classes and results in rising land prices. The added value of the estates, the increase in the entry of upper economic classes and the loss of previous social cohesion, will gradually cause the low-income groups to lose their ability and desire to live in the neighborhood.Urban regeneration projects and activities, in some experiences, solving the physical problems of neighborhoods and the major obstacles to their poor quality, will increase the demand for housing in these neighborhoods, resulting in an increase in the prices of residential units and displacement of old residents. In such cases, urban regeneration will accelerate the occurrence of gentrification within the context of the deteriorated neighborhoods. The main objective of this research is to investigate the effects of urban regeneration policies on the severity of the occurrence of gentrification as well as the effects of this phenomenon on the social and economic structure of inefficient neighborhoods. In order to achieve this goal, the method of case study and statistical analysis tool of the last ten years and completion of questionnaires in Khani-Abad and Atabak neighborhoods, both of which have experienced different levels of regeneration policies and actions, is used. In both neighborhoods, the trend of changes in the number of construction permits and the price of land in the ten-year period of 2006-2016 was investigated. According to the population of 2016, a number of residents were randomly assigned and theire residency background, educational level and income have been questioned. The results show that the symptoms of the occurrence of the gentrification are more obvious in the neighborhood where regeneration interventions and more physical changes are observed.

Tourism MoreRecognizing tourist attractions and capabilities with the aim of urban development and promotion of the presence of tourists is of high importance. Tourism-led urban regeneration can be considered as the main urban regeneration approach in the last two decades. Tourism in a strategic position and with the goal of achieving an economic and booming mechanism that can include urban development goals and draw a different face for the city. Tourism-led urban regeneration, by developing basic concepts such as innovative economic issues, finds that the inner context and central core of the cities can confidently benefit from the effects of urban tourism and its beneficial features in the regeneration process. This approach respects the traditional framework and adds new structures to these combinations in accordance with those frameworks. In this way, it represents a content and function with a superstructure of cultural and social issues, and an infrastructure of a fully economic and productive mechanism. Such a perspective brings about a kind of convergence in the purpose and means of urban regeneration. The lack of sufficient research in this regard has caused Iran not to have appropriate design and organization, in spite of the existence of indoor historical sites and urban tourist attractions. As noted earlier, there is little research on tourism-led urban regeneration in Iran. In addition, the frameworks proposed for studying urban tourism have more considered the concepts and methodology of urban tourism. In this way, it is necessary to carry out applied research to study urban tourism in order to explore the principles and criteria for urban regeneration. This research tries to fill this gap and focus on urban tourism by defining the different dimensions of urban regeneration as well as providing a set of principles and criteria appropriate for the urban space and testing them in Zandieh historical complex in Shiraz. The purpose of this research is to identify the tourist attractions in historically regenerated areas. First, a content analysis has been conducted to identify the principles of tourism-based regeneration, and the literature has been reviewed for various definitions, views and theories provided by scholars. Second, using the field method, tourism-led urban regeneration criteria have been verified through urban tourists’ questionnaire in Zandieh regenerated historical complex in Shiraz. The statistical population of the urban tourists in Shiraz city was 4,720,000 people in 1394. Using the Cochran formula, it is found that the sample size included 384/124 people. Therefore, the population of tourists was estimated to be 385 people. In order to increase the accuracy and reduce the functional error, 400 questionnaires were distributed among the tourists. It should be noted that the sampling method in this study was cluster sampling. The urban tourists’ questionnaire was analyzed using SPSS software and Friedman test. The findings revealed that the historical and memorable capabilities are at the first place and the cultural, recreational and environmental capabilities are at the second to fourth place of the prioritizing list. This is a good guide for tourism-led urban regeneration planning in Zandieh historical complex. Manuscript profile -

Job re-creation refers to job redefinition. The aim of the current research is to provide a model of job regeneration in the health system. Methods: This is a combined research study, and the research design is a mixed exploratory research design (qualitative-quantitative) and cross-sectional in terms of time. The statistical community of the research in the qualitative part, a group of professors in the field of public administration, human resources and organization in universities and higher education centers, senior managers of the organization development and resources department in universities of medical sciences and experts in the field of career design and in the quantitative part, administrative department employees There were 342 social security hospitals in Tehran province. In the qualitative part of the snowball sampling method, 17 people and in the quantitative part with the relative cluster sampling method based on Cochran's formula, 181 people were selected as a statistical sample. In the qualitative part, the data were extracted and analyzed using the SPSS and Amos software, through the implementation of the Delphi technique with four rounds of semi-structured and structured interviews, and in the quantitative part, through structural equation modeling (SEM) with a researcher-made questionnaire.Results: Qualitative findings showed that the model of job regeneration in the health system has four dimensions (structural, task, relational and cognitive), twelve components (formality, concentration, complexity, scope of control, independence, nature, feedback, assistance, consultation, perception of self, perception of job and attitude) and thirty four indicators. The results of the quantitative part showed that all dimensions and components of the research model were confirmed.Conclusion: According to the obtained results, it should be stated that the important solutions for job regeneration include complete knowledge in the work area, complete knowledge of clients and their needs, complete knowledge of the space and organizational environment, complete knowledge of competitors and comprehensive analysis of them and What is very important is a correct understanding of the future of work. In explaining these cases, it should be said that for any change and development, we must have reached a sufficient stage of self-knowledge and self-confidence to know exactly what our abilities and possibilities are and to recognize our weaknesses and deficiencies in our work.

Although many of these hazards have been greatly decreased as a result of medical science advancements, we have seen that diseases like the COVID-19, nevertheless constitute a severe threat to the health of all societies. This study aims to analyze the prevalence of widespread illnesses in order to evaluate the analysis of the aforementioned situation, taking into account the evolution of social and legal systems in societies.Methods: This study was conducted using a descriptive-analytical approach.Findings: In light of various interpretations of its contents, the domain of innocuous and harmless regulations has many distinct meanings, which makes its application highly challenging. After establishing a particular criterion, it is suggested that harmlessness is the absence of injury and the prohibition of producing harm as a result of the abuse of rights, with the criterion of abuse of rights being seen as a breach of accepted conduct.Conclusion: As long as there is a broad illness outbreak, the disease's transmission is seen as damage, and because of the rule of harmlessness, the disease's transmission and facilitation are forbidden. Even though an act that falls under the purview of an individual's rights in a typical circumstance is thought to be the source of disease transmission and harm, in the event of a disease outbreak, it is regarded as unusual behavior and is limited or prohibited due to the second part of the rule that it is harmless. The conflict between losses does not provide a problem since, in the circumstances described, the individual loss is contrasted to society's loss, and society's loss is significant.

To conduct this research in the west of Giulan province (Shanderman area), three skid trails with 10 years of age and slope classes: 0-10, 10-20 and 20-30% were selected. A total of 30 microplots (2x2 m2) were determined on skidtrails and adjacent areas (control area), and in them, the type of species and the frequency of regeneration were recorded 100%. In the soil sample taken from a depth of 0-20 cm, Bulk Density and Particle Density and %Porosity were measured. The results showed that there is a significant difference between skidtrails and the control area in terms of bulk density, percentage of soil porosity and species regeneration (p<0.05). The frequency of regeneration of the Acer velutinum species in the skidtrails was significantly higher than in the control area, and the frequency of the regeneration of the Carpinus betulus and Acer capadosicum species in the control area was significantly higher than that of the skidtrails. However, no significant difference was observed between these two places in terms of the regeneration of Fagus orientalis and Alnus subcordata species. There was no significant difference between the three slope classes investigated in terms of regeneration and bulk density, the percentage of soil porosity of skidtrails with two slope classes of 0-10 and 20-30% did not have significant differences (p>0.05). The result is that the time period of 10 years is not enough to recover the physical properties of the soil and establish the regeneration of the skidtrails in this area, and the slope of less than 30% does not have a significant effect on the recovery of the soil and the regeneration of the skidtrails.

This issue has ended up with MoreToday, culture is one of the urban capital and creating urban spaces base on cultural infrastructure is a great challenge in large cities. Many urban spaces due to numerous problems, have confronted inefficiency and stagnation of urban life. This issue has ended up with fewer attractiveness in spaces. Moreover, it may seem that the regeneration of urban spaces with a focus on culture, can solve existing challenges and somewhat leads to reduce the same risks of urban spaces. Therefore, it becomes crucial to recognize the concept of culture-led regeneration and its influential components and principles on urban spaces. This study attempts to extract and analyze the principals involved in the success of the culture-led regeneration process of urban spaces by examining the concepts, theories and data obtained. This developmental-applied study adopts a descriptive and analytical approach to research. The research is also qualitative. Samples of the study were collected purposefully and data were analyzed through content analysis and estimation based on the generalized linear model. Research findings show that the culture-led regeneration process of urban spaces, tries to prepare urban spaces to achieve a long-term of a public space through five components including improving civic identity, sustainable development, city branding (promoting urban competitiveness), capital enhancement and placemaking. Based on findings, this goal will be achieved by applying seven principles including tourism and event-led development, cultural development, promotion of urban properties, making image and place based on distinct advantage, urban environmental quality, civil society, and the optimum economic structure.

In this regard, one of the measures taken over the past several years to restore the components and functions of pedestrians to efficient circuits in most countries of the world is regeneration. Regeneration is a set of artistic and tactful actions in order to return urban functions and spaces at various levels. The main purpose of this study is to analyze the status of footpath in Tehran, region 12with an urban regeneration. Method: This study is a descriptive-analytic one in terms of purpose. SPSS software and TOPSIS method are chosen for analyzing information.The Cronbach's alpha coefficient is used to determine the reliability of the questionnaire; Cronbach's alpha coefficient of the questionnaire was 0.858. Results: On the one hand the results of one-sample T-test show among the recreation (regeneration)dimensions based on the data from the questionnaire, the economic dimension in favorable condition and the environmental dimension got the lowest score among recreation dimensions from the viewpoint of the citizens of region 12.On the other hand,according to the TOPSIS model, the pedestrian paths of Khordad 15, Bob Homayoun, Naser Khosrow were on suitable condition;furthermore,the pedestrian queues, Sourasrafil, Davar were roughly successful whereas 17 shahrivar pedestrian was unsuccessful because the use of areas surrounding this pedestrian was inactive and moreover, for social security a road was built for the use of vehicles from Shohada square to Safa street;as a result,this pedestrian was turned to be useless. Conclusion: The implementation of the road construction in region 12 in Tehran is completely physical and economically oriented and does not have holistic and community-based attitudes. In this regard, a new approach, called urban regeneration, should be with workable solutions to solve current instabilities. Manuscript profile -

Lalehzar Street, in fact, in the 12th district of Tehran, considering the significant and diverse potentials of tourism, in case of expert planning in the field of urban regeneration, has the ability to be one of the tourism hubs of the country, especially in the field of new tourism. To be converted. Considering that one of the methods of implementing urban regeneration is tourism planning of worn-out tissues, which is one of the main goals of this research. We intend to study this area by evaluating the potentials, weaknesses, opportunities and threats of the region by focusing on the tourism structure. Therefore, it is obvious that the study method in this qualitative article and its main tool is an in-depth interview and data analysis using SWOT model. In order to investigate the issue, strategies based on the principle of recreating approach in historical contexts based on tourism approach have been presented. By applying these strategies and policies to upgrade and develop infrastructure and network of roads by defining and strengthening the tourism sidewalk and equipping and expanding spaces. Public and recreation of urban spaces in Lalehzar Street and the development and provision of urban services through modernization or the creation of new uses as well as modeling using valuable concepts and patterns in the historical-cultural context of this old street helps. Finally, the implementation of such strategies makes it possible to attend The project will promote residents and investors to attract tourists. The results of the Swat analysis showed that competitive strategies accounted for the largest area in the need to recreate the region. This suggests that the region's ultimate strategic position tends toward diversification strategies, that is, the exploitation of the region's potential to overcome potential threats, which should be the focus of most planning.

The aim of this study was to study effect of livestock and forest dwellers exclusion on regeneration in Fouman forest in Guilan province. Method: For this purpose, 200 plots (100 plots in the grazed and 100 plots in the non-grazed area) were sampled by a randomized-systematic method with 100 m2 circular plots in the 100×200 meters grid. In each sample plot, regeneration density and quality condition were recorded. Using questionnaires completed by 100 farmers, forest dwellers status was also assessed. Findings: The results showed that there were significant differences between the two areas in terms of natural regeneration, so that regeneration density was more in the non-grazed region than grazed region. Regeneration quality was better in the non- grazed region than grazed region. The plan failed to properly provide the needs of forest dwellers. Discussion and Conclusion: These results indicate that livestock exclusion have positive effects on Fouman forests and natural resource managers can execute and manage this plan in other Iranian north forests with protect the rights of forest dwellers.

On the other hand, the impacts of the immense growth of urban populations have led to a dispersed growth and the emergence of the marginalization phenomenon, having resulted in its own distinct problems. Yet, it is well-agree that the urban areas are the best option for urban development due to their existing infrastructure and urban amenities. Accordingly, the present paper seeks to locate these lands in the eroded urban fabrics of the Avini neighborhood by compiling the criteria and indices from theoretical texts and practical experiences to identify the lands susceptible to internal development.Method: In this regard, in order to reach a conceptual understanding and expert knowledge concerning the features of the lands susceptible to internal development, a questionnaire based on the theoretical framework was developed and completed by the urban planning experts on the one hand, the research method in this paper is, an F'ANP analytical method which is a combination of the functional analytical methods and the ANP; on the other hand, it is a secondary analysis of the location of the land susceptible to the development of an endogenous GIS.Findings: The findings of this study acknowledged that among all the factors affecting the identification of the lands susceptible to internal development in the Shahid Avini neighborhood, the performance criteria, and the accessibility and the related indicators attained the highest priority and prominence in locating these lands. Furthermore, a number of the parts related to the brownfields and the workshop located in the north and northeast areas of the neighborhood had a higher priority compared to the other parts to carry out the process of endogenous development with a weight between six and nine.Discussion and Conclusion: In line with the results of this study, among all the factors affecting the identification of the lands susceptible to internal development in Shahid Avini neighborhood, performance criteria and access and related indicators have the highest priority and importance in locating these lands. In addition, parts with barren use and production-workshop located in the northern and northeastern parts of the neighborhood, with a spatial weight between six to nine, have a higher priority than other parts to perform the process of internal development.

In this sense MoreBackground and Objective: By definition, the urban landscape is a natural structure in an urban setting and research in social perception about studying the intangible norms that the landscape, as a medium, represented and transmitted throough the society. In this sense, in contrast to landscape restoration which has an ecological approach, social perception has fewer contributions to regeneration of urban streams. Shiraz Khoshk River is one of the natural and historical edges of city that has become a symbol of the city and one of its natural identities for lack of sufficient water, presence of physical interventions and valuable religious monuments in its path across the city. This paper aims to find out the social perceptions of Khoshk River in order to establish a practical framework for landscape regeneration of the urban streams. Hence, categorizing the citizens’ perceptions is inevitable and this could be defined as one of the research objectives. Method: This study relies on integrated strategies as a research method; we applied a complex description with a social survey within the case study using an exploratory content analysis approach. Besides, during assessing the social perception of residence, totally 32 person were chosen randomly through semi-structured interviews. Social perception variables obtained from literature review and categorized in two main groupes: landscape to society variables (six variables), and society to landscape variables (four variables). These variables were evaluated in a field survey (interviews and photography). Results: Results showed that the upper part of the river has higher potential for social perception than the middle and lower part. Furthermore, according to the survey, the social perception consists of some variables which could be categorized in three groups: “natural environment variables”, “functional and activity variables” and “emotional variables” appeared in the responses in priority order. Conclusion: In the social opinions, the noticeable elements of the river were in order of “natural elements”, “arterial and manmade elements” and at least “functional-activity elements”. It means that the relations between landscape and people are mostly a one-way direction than a two-way correlation. In another word, society to landscape variables is less considered than landscape to society variables. At the end, the principle of urban natural stream regeneration based on the case study and social perception of the landscape was modeled and proposed as “cultural, symbolic and identical strategies”, “recreational strategies” and “social and legal sensitivity strategies”.

The value, depth, and consequences of this discovery are a modern phenomenon with features of the age called iron, which creates its own myths and heroes. Iran, as one of the oldest ritual civilizations in the world and the first centers to achieve iron smelting and extraction technology, is not without its cultural consequences. The most famous Iranian hero of this era is Kaveh Ahangar, who appears in the dark and turbulent millennium of Zahaki (Iranian version of the beginning of the Iron Age) and provides the ground for the re-creation of the drinking world by Fereydoun. Despite his reputation and constant influence on Iranian thought, Kaveh is not reflected in Iranian patriotic and religious myths. This has led some scholars to consider him a historical figure made by the writers of the Sassanid theologians, which is certainly unbelievable, because it is incompatible with the intellectual foundations of prehistoric peoples in understanding existence. Kaveh, like other mythical characters, has symbolic motives and metaphorical features. In this research, using archetypal analysis, comparative attitude and library method the researchers try to study the mythological themes of Kaveh's mediation in Shahnameh and present new results by introducing new ideas to show that Kaveh is , a prehistoric hero who, for some reason, disappears from the scene of Iranian mythology.

This trend of popul MoreIn recent decades, the rapid growth of urbanization has brought about problems and complexities that the consequences of this phenomenon are the intensification of the rate of spatial-physical changes in cities and the inefficiency of urban textures. This trend of population increase, decline of social status, disorder in spatial-physical, economic and functional organization in urban neighborhoods that play a key role in urban life and decline; resulted in. In addition, dysfunctional tissues, as the smallest cell and the most important factor in the sustainability of urban life, play a very important role in the future of the city. Therefore, the need to pay attention to the future perspective of these tissues causes the stability of neighborhoods and ultimately the stability of the whole city. In recent years, the approach of sustainable urban regeneration with integrated economic, social, cultural, physical and environmental goals in order to improve the quality of life in dysfunctional context in connection with the whole city has entered the field of restoration and protection. Therefore, this study with the aim of developing a conceptual framework and presenting the dimensions and criteria of sustainable reproduction using futurology method tries to use a descriptive method and content analysis as well as reviewing theories related to reproduction and research done with this approach, a comprehensive view. Of its dimensions and criteria. Findings show that many theories have done so far, each of which has proposed principles and criteria for achieving sustainable regeneration, among which Peter Roberts theory has selected because of its comprehensiveness and relevance to the research goal.Extended AbstractIntroduction:The city is like a living thing that has undergone numerous physical, social, economic, environmental, etc. changes in its life cycle over time (Stewart, 2004: 63). Urban development in the late twentieth century was accompanied by the growth of the urbanization process without planning; This has led to the inefficiency of the city over time and the subsequent process of destruction and erosion of old structures that can no longer meet the current needs of society (Poorahmad. 2010: 76-80). The urban regeneration approach with an integrated, comprehensive and operational policy is a set of measures that create positive, lasting changes, create, improve and improve the quality of dysfunctional urban structures, and ultimately lead to the final solution of urban problems and achieve progress. Becomes sustainable, economic, physical, social and environmental (Izadi. 2010: 17). Since dysfunctional tissues are part of the urban subsystem, instability in these neighborhoods leads to urban instability. On the other hand, these neighborhoods, which are among the vital nuclei of the urban future, cannot be eliminated, so by planning, these vital nuclei can be made sustainable. The futures studies approach, as a methodological method, can clarify the perspective of these neighborhoods by considering the past and present situation. In this approach, we prepare for the unpredictable by avoiding surprise in the face of the onslaught of future changes, and it is a tool that gives man the opportunity to look at the future as he pleases (Pedram and Azgoli). 2009: 5).Research MethodsThe present study is applied in terms of purpose and descriptive and analytical in terms of method. In this study, by reviewing the theoretical foundations and views of thinkers and their experiences in relation to issues related to sustainable urban regeneration, tries to provide a conceptual model for achieving sustainable regeneration from a futuristic perspective in dysfunctional context. It is compiled on the method of futurology. Therefore, this research is in the field of qualitative-documentary research.FindingsSummary of regeneration theories; Represents the theoretical perspective of research and the link between concepts, theories and methods related to research and tries to use analytical approaches and methods. In the studies related to regeneration and its approaches (physical, social, economic, environmental) and the relationship with sustainability and its dimensions (social, economic, environmental), the key concepts of sustainable urban regeneration are: process and comprehensive approach with comprehensiveness. And integration, paying attention to the dimensions of sustainability (economic, social, environmental), paying attention to social and economic factors, paying attention to physical and environmental factors, increasing the role of public participation and stakeholders, improving the living standards of citizens and paying attention to urban spaces.According to the theory of Peter Roberts, Sustainable urban regeneration is inherently an interventionist activity. When traditional forms of intervention are applied, the acceptance of a new intervention to avoid past economic mistakes and failures becomes increasingly desirable for everyone. This theory is interested in organizational movement in the field of urban change management. From Roberts' point of view, regeneration can be viewed from the following angles:- as an interventionist activity;- As an activity that involves various sectors from government to private and public;- As an activity that has the ability to make fundamental changes in its organizational structure, to be able to react to economic, social, environmental and political changes;- As a way to mobilize collective efforts and pave the way for agreeing on appropriate solutions;- Defined as a way to determine policies and activities designed to improve the conditions of urban areas and develop the necessary organizational structures for support to achieve the goals.ConclusionIn the final summary of the theoretical foundations of the research, urban regeneration with different policies and approaches such as urban regeneration is body-based, culture-based, economics-based and conservation-based. Finally, with the introduction of the paradigm of sustainability and the concepts of sustainable development, the final approach called urban regeneration with a focus on sustainable development (sustainable urban regeneration) has entered the field of action. Inefficient tissues is involving by numerous problems over time, while numerous regeneration projects have been undertaken, but the number of dysfunctional zones has not only not decreased but also increased. Therefore, in this study, the selected approach is sustainable urban regeneration using Peter Roberts’s theory in four physical, social, economic and environmental dimensions. The reason for choosing this theory is due to the comprehensiveness of this theory compared to other theories. In fact, Peter Roberts' theory is a comprehensive and multifaceted approach to improving the quality of urban life with three main components of sustainability, namely the environment, society and the economy in order to improve the quality of life. This study with a new perspective using the approach of sustainable urban regeneration, which is the latest comprehensive and recent approach, seeks to identify the factors and processes affecting the future of sustainable regeneration of dysfunctional tissue. Achieve sustainable regeneration scenarios for that texture. Therefore, the findings of this study and what was obtained from the existing theories about sustainable urban regeneration is to pay attention to the dysfunctional urban context with a new approach to sustainable urban regeneration that can in addition to stabilizing and improving economic, social, physical and biological conditions. Inefficient tissue environment also increases the sustainability of metropolitan areas. In this research, the perspective of regeneration is stable. In other words, if in metropolitan areas, four dimensions of sustainable regeneration are considered together, they can actually lead the whole city towards sustainability. Otherwise, without considering these four dimensions together, we will see the continuation of the unstable state of the present time, which has a beautiful shape but is worn out and inefficient from within. In order to achieve a sustainable regeneration approach using Futures Studies method, a conceptual model of research has presented. In future researches, based on the presented conceptual model, the index and then the item can be defined and using the questionnaire technique, to evaluate and measure sustainable urban regeneration in the future horizon of the dysfunctional context of a specific study area.

ahmad sheikhahmadi Mirsadegh MohammadiToday, the issue of worn-out textures is one of the main issues of urban planning. Cultural Reconstruction is a new approach to urban regeneration that seeks to rebuild the city and neighborhood by taking advantage of the socio-cultural characteristics and advantages of MoreToday, the issue of worn-out textures is one of the main issues of urban planning. Cultural Reconstruction is a new approach to urban regeneration that seeks to rebuild the city and neighborhood by taking advantage of the socio-cultural characteristics and advantages of each region and to create a distinct physical physical space based on the local culture and characteristics of the residents. Create that special place. This approach has a positive effect on the economy and job creation in cities and can increase social cohesion and the tourism industry in the city and reduce crime. The method of this research is descriptive-analytical and is based on documentary and field studies. In the qualitative part of the research, the data of the semi-structured interview were analyzed using contextual theory. The research findings indicate that from the residents' point of view, regeneration depends on social and economic dynamism and vitality. In this regard, categories such as ease of theft and recklessness, safety and security, unemployment and poverty, built space, social, participation of residents and the view of officials, cultural and historical, economic facilities, equipment and services are influential. Also, the presence or absence of trust and motivation has a special effect on the way residents look at the future and the neighborhood. In the quantitative part of this research, by compiling a questionnaire and completing them by residents and experts, by analyzing the results of the questionnaire data and using Friedman and correlation tests, the research findings show that the cultural index has gained the first rank. The existence of cultural potential (tangible and intangible heritage) is a good omen for cultural re-creation. Among the indicators, the environmental index is ranked last. The climatic conditions of Urmia as well as the interest of citizens in nature and agriculture are two elements that can be improved with the efforts of more designers and officials. Also, the social component has gained the second rank, which indicates the high potential of social capital in the historical context of Urmia.Extended Abstract Introduction: Security is one of the most important components affecting the quality of urban spaces. Today, most of these spaces, which are the center of social interactions of residential contexts, have become merely transitory channels without social life. With the reduction of residents' sense of belonging and the lack of public oversight, the above spaces have become places for committing various crimes. Any solution to restore and improve the safety and security and environmental efficiency of the old fabric of historic cities, requires a comprehensive view of the whole and the body of the city to be able to create an integrated view. The number of existing problems and the variety of decision-making centers in general have made this problem seem to be an insurmountable impasse in most cities of Iran. Inhomogeneous and unbalanced distribution of services in the city and especially in the historical centers of cities, uncoordinated growth of residential areas, urban facilities and equipment, population growth, unbalanced distribution of population in the city and lack of hierarchy consistent with today's life in urban arteries, lack of attention Social and cultural issues in the contexts are among the issues that each of them has an important impact on the formation of cities in Iran today, the need for rational payment and the revival of historical centers and rational load on these areas. May. What has turned the old urban fabric into a problematic node is physical deterioration over time, followed by social and cultural vulnerability. Problems and limitations such as incompatibility of body and activity, the existence of inconsistent urban elements, a small per capita use of some uses such as leisure, cultural and parking spaces, lack of proper hierarchy in the communication network and lack of permeability into organic tissue, Incompatible uses and traffic absorption, lack of public spaces suitable for the formation of social interactions, disruption in the land use system, some environmental pollution, gradual outflow of capital and activity reduce the importance and value of the historical context and identity of cities It has led to the departure of groups with high financial power and a sense of belonging to it, and has been replaced by low-income groups that lack a sense of place and space.In recent years, regeneration is considered as a new way to get out of the problems in valuable historical contexts, which facilitates the process of regeneration in three areas by improving and developing unique features of the place, such as historical and cultural values. It will be physical, economic and social. Today, culture has a more effective role not only in creating employment, urban regeneration and social cohesion, not only due to its inherent mission in promoting human rights and shaping collective knowledge and improving the quality of life.Methodology: The present research in terms of purpose, the present research is considered as a category of basic-applied research and in terms of nature and method, this study is a combination of descriptive-analytical methods. Using library studies, documents and theoretical foundations related to the subject and foreign examples were collected. Using field studies, statistical and descriptive data required for research were collected using the question. Letters, interviews, field observations and impressions are covered. In this research, using the principles of grounded theory method (grounded theory), data collection by snowball method has continued until theoretical saturation. The method of data analysis and theory explanation is based on the coding process including open coding, axial coding and selective (selective) coding. ). Research information and data were obtained from a statistical sample using a semi-structured interview. The content analysis of the interviews was done in a regular and at the same time tedious process of data comparison, and for this purpose, a three-step process was used according to the approach of Strauss and Corbin. Also, for quantification, the questionnaire method and tests of SPSS software are used.Results and discussion: In the qualitative part of the research, the data of the semi-structured interview were analyzed using contextual theory. The research findings indicate that from the residents' point of view, regeneration depends on social and economic dynamism and vitality. In this regard, categories such as ease of theft and recklessness, safety and security, unemployment and poverty, built space, social, participation of residents and the view of officials, cultural and historical, economic facilities, equipment and services are influential. Also, the presence or absence of trust and motivation has a special effect on the way residents look at the future and the neighborhood. In a small part of this research, by compiling a questionnaire and completing them by residents and experts, by analyzing the results of the questionnaire data and using Friedman tests and correlation of results were obtained. Based on the obtained results, the cultural index has obtained the first rank. The existence of cultural potential (tangible and intangible heritage) is a good omen for recreating the underlying culture. Among the indicators, the environmental index is ranked last. Urmia's climatic conditions as well as citizens' interest in nature and agriculture are two elements that can be improved with the efforts of more designers and officials.Conclusion: The present study studies the historical context of Urmia, which by extracting the criteria related to safety, security and reconstruction, tries to identify the strengths and weaknesses of the historical context of Urmia and eliminate its shortcomings and improve its spatial status.

This study finally presents four main findings: First: The factor analysis model of this study showed that the perception of tourists is based on the components of urban regeneration in four different levels of tourist attractions. These four levels are the historical and ancient core of the city, complementary historical attractions, the city's tourism belt and the general urban context. Second: Elements associated with the city's tourism belt, such as territories and public spaces of the urban environment, are considered as the most important tourist attractions and tourists. Third, a comparison of the average value of the indicators shows that tourists who have used the Internet and social media in their searches, in the first place, they react more to the historical core of the city, in the second place, to the levels of public urban areas and territories, and in the third place, to the complementary tourist attractions. Fourth: In this study, it was found that among the components of urban regeneration, the component of development and promotion of public spaces and territories, have the greatest impact on the development of urban tourism. Since public areas and urban spaces play an essential role in tourist attractions, it is recommended that this issue be included in urban development strategies when planning cities with a tourism base Manuscript profile -

All canopy gaps and related forest parameters were measured within three 25 ha areas within the Gorazbon district of the University of Tehran’s Kheyrud Experimental Forest. Results showed an average of 3 gaps/ha occurred in the forest and gap sizes ranged from 19 to 1250 m2 in size. The most frequent (58%) canopy gaps were <200 m2. In total, canopy gaps covered 9.3% of the forest area. Gaps <400 m2 in size were irregular in shape, but larger gaps did not differ significantly in shape from a circle. Most gaps (41%) were formed by a single tree-fall event and beech made up 63% of gap makers and 93% of gap fillers. Frequency and diversity of tree seedlings were not significantly correlated with gap size. The minimum gap size that contained at least one beech gap-filling sapling (<1.3 m tall) was 23.7 m2. The median gap size containing at least one beech gap-filling sapling was 206 m2 and the maximum size was 1808 m2. The management implications from our study suggest that the creation of small and medium sized gaps in mixed beech forest should mimic natural disturbance regimes and would be consider as near to nature in the study area.

Nowadays, ancient districts of city that have valuable and ancient fabric work like heart of cities and they lose their social, cultural and economics function. Trying to inject new spirit to these areas and make situation to presence and contribution of everyone are the valuable goals of this approach.one of latest policies in urban development in general and specially regeneration of obsolescence textures is using actions and urban catalyst projects with goals of speedup and facilitation in process evolution in fabrics with use of contribution of social citizens power and local capacities. In fact urban catalysts are a new redevelopment strategy that includes landscapes and constructions to guide urban development. Urban catalysts are generators to return prosperity to the area of regeneration projects to initiate the cycle of people`s activities. The main issue of this research is the effect of urban catalysts in regeneration process of ancient texture. Methodology of this research is based on applied ways that include two courses of analysis- descriptive and statistical; the first part tries to review outstanding and important documents in urban regeneration and urban catalyst domain to achieve frame work concept to recognize k whole research ways. The second part, with dispensation of questionnaires ,depends on research goals in analysis of information with SPSS22 software (n=96). Article conclusion points out that according to urban catalyst aspects that include: sociality-cultural, economic, spatial and environmental objects, sociality –cultural aspect in KOLAPA district has allocated more priority and social concern turns out to be the main issue in urban catalyst approach. In social aspect: social interaction, contribution, belief, security are much important than other objects. Manuscript profile -

Nevertheless, these textures account for high percentage of urban population, and yet have numerous capacities and potentials for future intra-city developments. Dealing with distressed and inefficient urban textures is not apart from dealing with economic, cultural and social realities, and entails careful, comprehensive and realistic planning. In recent years, urban regeneration has been brought up as a new approach for improvement and renovation of these textures. “Urban regeneration” approach is beyond objectives, desires and achievements of “urban renovation”, “urban development”, and “urban improvement”, and has comprehensive, consistent and sustainable outlook by considering all social, economic, physical and environmental aspects. The current study has been carried out by understanding effective factors on urban distressed textures and evaluating the sustainability and unsustainability of District 10, and using SWOT-QSPM methods; research variables were determined through documentary and library studies that include social, economic, and environmental indicators . Throughout the survey method, the required information was collected and analyzed using the entropy criterion and SWOT-QSPM model. Further quantitative results showed that this area is economically unstable in the first place due to its social and environmental dimensions. The instability of the economic dimensions of the tissue is that: this leads to the instability of the other dimensions of the texture and ultimately shows itself as a physical instability. Thus, the later approach of sustainable urban regeneration with the strategy (economic regeneration and community-based recreation), due to its integrated globalization and interactivity, can be an optimal version to intervene with this tissue.

Among the effective domains of the university is its role in improving the cultural quality of the historical context of cities. For this purpose, in this research, the role of the university in the cultural re-creation of the historical fabric of the Tehran metropolis has been investigated. The purpose of this research is to identify the performance criteria of universities in the cultural reproduction of the historical context. The research method is applied and descriptive-analytical. The research scope of the historical fabric of Tehran corresponds to the 12th district of Tehran Municipality. The statistical population of the research is specialists and faculty of urban planning, urban planning, and architecture. The sample of the study included 35 people and this number was chosen based on the opinion saturation of the elites. The method of data collection was an observation, semi-structured interview, and questionnaire. The method of data analysis was using the T-Test and structural equation method. The findings showed that universities can play an effective role in cultural regeneration with various examples. In this regard, the coefficient of the path between the performance variable of universities in cultural regeneration is 0.971, which indicates the fact that the mechanisms governing the internal structure of universities in the cultural field can be implemented as manifestations of cultural regeneration in the old context. Also, the structure of the effect of national and local policies on the performance of universities shows that these policies, especially in the national field, with a coefficient of 0.978 have a positive effect on the performance of universities. Therefore, it can be concluded that national policies have influenced the performance of universities and this performance can show its manifestations in cultural regeneration. Manuscript profile -

Urban regeneration and catalyst project drives have different dimensions from the physical ones on which this study has focused. After reviewing the characteristics of urban catalyst projects, the physical indices were identified. Then, the physical changes in the residential environment of the Limjir neighborhood located in the 11th district of Isfahan before and after the construction of Limjir street as a catalyst project during the years 2009 to 2016, were evaluated and analyzed using a variety of methods, library, and field measurement methods. Then, using the Analytic Hierarchy Process model (AHP) weighting, scoring, and calculation of the integration index in two conditions before and after implementation of the catalyst project is addressed. A comparison of index values in two periods 2009 and 2016 shows that the construction of Limjir Street causes the development and improvement of the physical status of the Limjir neighborhood. Also, the calculation and comparison of the integration index show that the physical condition of the Limjir neighborhood has improved by 0.308 in comparison to the situation before the construction of the catalyst project in 1388. Factors such as improving access to Limjir street, investment in the housing sector and extensive construction, increased service, and mixing of land uses have had the highest share in creating positive changes in the Limjir neighborhood.

The research employs both qualitative and quantitative methodologies and uses the SPSS and Expert Choice software to analyze data. Results from the Expert Choice indicate that recreating worn-out urban fabric should prioritize a neighborhood-centered approach, with the social dimension, specifically the index of resident turnout, scoring the highest (0.112), followed by the economic front, particularly the Location Units with points index (0.157). To investigate the role of socio-economic dimensions in regenerating the worn-out urban fabric in Zahedan regions 4 and 5, stepwise multiple regression was used, revealing a significant relationship between the independent variables (economic and social dimensions) and dependent variable (recreation) at P=0.05. Additionally, the Chi-square test found a positive and significant relationship between socio-economic variables, the neighborhood-based approach, and recreation in the study areas (significant level of 0.000 for all variables).

Considering the past of historical identity of different period, it has a new identity consistent with conditions of today’s life on its agenda. Accordingly, urban regeneration becomes a comprehensive concept, a concept that considers improvement and rehabilitation of old textures in all economic, physical, social, and cultural dimensions. This research is a comparative study of regeneration of Khayam texture of Tehran, and Liverpool 1 in the UK, because both samples are located in central texture of the city, and their surrounding textures has identity-related values. Regeneration plan for Liverpool 1 project (2008) was recognized as the Europe’s best regeneration project, and Khayam block redevelopment project (Tehran) is also the largest recreation plan conducted by Tehran municipality after Islamic Revolution. This comparison aims to study objectives and measures in the two plan, the reasons behind the success of Liverpool 1, non-realization of predetermined objectives in regeneration of Khayam, and finally, provision of solutions for realization of predetermined objective of Khayam texture. The result is that adoption of short term and temporal policies, with consistent and prearranged planning, and lack of public participation from the beginning to the end, and failure to consider historical identity and position of Khayam texture resulted in failure of Khayam regeneration. Descriptive-analytical and comparative research method was used. Data collection was conducted by documentary, library and field observation method. Manuscript profile -

The surroundings of the holy shrine in Mashhad boast valuable historical and religious landmarks such as historic houses, mosques, gardens, and caravanserais. However, due to their integration within aging urban fabric, these sites face challenges including visual degradation, structural integrity issues, accessibility constraints, and deficiencies in urban infrastructure. Despite the establishment of regeneration offices, efforts to preserve and maintain these sites have not been entirely successful. This research aims to assess the operational pathology of facilitation offices, particularly focusing on tourism, within the central fabric surrounding the holy shrine. The study employs a mixed-method approach, combining qualitative interviews conducted between 1401-1402 with 28 managers of facilitation offices. Findings highlight critical factors contributing to operational pathology, including the knowledge of urban regeneration experts and related entities (coefficient of importance = 0.184), urban management's perspective on tourism (coefficient = 0.110), financial resource inadequacies within regeneration organizations (coefficient = 0.099), expertise deficiencies among regeneration experts (coefficient = 0.095), reluctance to collaborate with other entities (coefficient = 0.086), and weaknesses in the evaluation system of regeneration organizations. These results prioritize key areas requiring intervention for enhancing the performance of neighborhood development offices in the vicinity of the holy shrine. Manuscript profile -

It can be said that the protection of this texture is essentially the protection of the city's identity. As a result, various methods have been proposed to preserve and maintain these fabrics. This study aims to explain how the culture-led regeneration process intervenes in the dysfunctional urban fabric. Another aim is to provide a model for dynamic protection of historical fabric, using the perspectives of this method. In this regard, not only the existing approaches in regeneration have been studied, but also by researching one of the successful regenerations in the historical fabric of Shiraz (Sang-e Siah neighborhood), an integrated model with a culture-led approach has been presented. Field observation and library research have been used to achieve this goal, the most important of which have been: studying of high-level documents, field observation, and interviews with 17 individuals involved in the regeneration of Sange-E-Siah neighborhood. The resulting pattern consists of ten steps which cover the social, economic, and physical aspects. This model covers all aspects of theory, moreover proves its efficiency in practice, and due to its flexible nature, it is possible to be used in other cities and historical fabrics as well.The importance of this essay can be mentioned in two points: First, it Examines aspects of culture-led regeneration to apply this approach and rescues it from a purely slogan-oriented approach in urban planning. Second, providing a model for implementing the process of culture-led regeneration in urban neighborhoods with a flexible approach which includes various dimensions. Manuscript profile -

Juniperus seravschanica is important in soil protection and is very resistant to frost and drought too. In this study, seed number in cone, seed emptiness and germination were studied on filter paper, peatmoss+ perlite mixture and in field in Galuchar, sarbijan and Dalfard (Kerman province) in populations. In addition, shoot proliferation and rooting in pot and in vitro culture was assayed. The average number of cone seeds in Glochar, Serbijan and Delfard was 4.86, 3.69 and 3.21, respectively. The average number of full seeds per cone was 1.1, 0.22 and 0.1 (22, 5.96 and 3.1%, respectively) in Glochar, Sarbijan and Dalfard, showing 78, 94 and 97% emptiness, respectively. In all media, seed germination percentage was very low (2-5%). No germination was observed in seeds without cold treatment as well as without scarification (making a hole in seed coat). 20 cm young shoots, after cold treatment and rapid immersion in IBA, grew as normal until 4 week and finally dried after 5-6 weeks. The young shoots (1-1.5 cm) cultured in MS and WPM media proliferated and regenerated new branches in WPM (40% regeneration) and MS (57%) media in combination of BAP and NAA (2+3 and 0.2+3 mgl-1, respectively for WPM and MS). No rooting was observed using IBA after 24 weeks. Manuscript profile -

Ultrasonic energy and heparinization of MWCNTs were used in order to effective dispersion of the carbon nanotube in the PLLA matrix. The effect of fundamental system parameters including carbon nanotube types and concentrations on morphology of the films was studied by Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM). Transmission Electron Microscopy (TEM) was carried out for characterization of nanotubes’ dispersion in PLLA. Contact angle and zeta potential measurements were used to investigate the hydrophilicity and negative surface charge of the films. In vitro studies were also conducted by using murine P19 cell line as a suitable model system to analyze neuronal differentiation over a 2-week period. SEM and immunofluorescence staining were used to confirm the cells attachment and differentiation on the films. Obtained results indicate that films containing heparinized multiwall carbon nanotubes (HMWCNTs) were quite acceptable for nerve regeneration and enhanced the nerve cell differentiation and proliferation.

In vitro regeneration of eggplant was established to determine an efficient phytohormone concentration for development of organogenesis from cotyledon and leaf explants. Ten-day old cotyledon and 25-day old leaf explants were cultured on MS medium amended with Gamborg’s B5 vitamins and 2% sucrose in 10 different concentrations and combinations of NAA, BAP, TDZ, 2,4-D and IAA phytohormons. Cultured explants were incubated at 25 ± 2 ºC for 3 weeks under 16:8 h photoperiod. Well-grown regenerated shoots were transferred to fresh growth medium after 3 weeks for shoot elongation. All cotyledon and leaf explants produced various callus masses but only white and friable ones were able to regenerate into vigorous shoots. Shoot regeneration medium (SRM10) containing MS + TDZ 2 mg/L + BAP 0.5 mg/L + NAA 0.5 mg/L showed high potential in organogenesis of both explant types. Shoot regeneration and organogenesis from cotyledon explants were much more advantageous than leaf explants. The average of cotyledon and leaf explants producing shoot were 4.3 ± 0.33 and 1.6 ± 0.67 out of 5 in each plate, respectively. The percentages of regenerated shoots in cotyledon and leaf explants cultured on SRM10 were 86.6 ± 6.67 and 33.3 ± 13.3%, respectively. Current work can shed a light on production of transgenic eggplants and can be followed by normal mature plants regeneration. Manuscript profile -

To this end, the corn seeds pretreated with potassium nitrate (halopriming) and distilled water (hydropriming) in terms of germination index and growth of seedlings under salt stress by sodium chloride and drought conditions caused by poly ethylene glycol 6000 in water potentials of 0, -0.2, -0.4 and -0.6 MPa in greenhouse were studied in vitro. Seeds were able to germinate in all concentrations of sodium chloride solution, but germination was not observed only in -0.6 MPa osmotic potential. Pretreatment of seeds caused better seed germination and seedling growth under salinity and drought stresses. The application of hydro and osmotic pretreatments could compensate the negative effects of salinity and drought stresses and had positive effect on germination indices and also caused rapid seed germination. Generally, pretreatment practices are recommended for the improvement of germination and initial establishment of maize seedling. �مام غلظت­های محلول کلرید­سدیم بودند، اما تنها در پتانسیل اسمزی 6/0- مگاپاسکال جوانه­زنی مشاهده نشد. پیش­تیمار بذر باعث جوانه­زنی بهتر و رشد گیاهچه­ها تحت تنش­های شوری و خشکی ­شد. استفاده از روش پیش­تیمار اسمزی و آبی توانست اثرات منفی تنش­ها را جبران نماید و اثر مثبت بر شاخص­های جوانه­زنی داشت و باعث شد تا جوانه­زنی بذرها سریعتر انجام شود. در کل، اعمال پیش­تیمار برای بهبود جوانه­زنی و استقرار اولیه گیاهچه­ ذرت تحت تنش توصیه می­شود.
