        Background: The Housing Foundation of Islamic Revolution is a governmental institution whose clients are mainly from deprived and vulnerable rural areas. The major portion of its activities is conducted in villages, regions affected by natural disasters, and deprived urban areas. This study aimed at investigating the relationship of organizational commitment and perception of organizational virtue with procrastination at work, by considering the role of demographic variables. Research Method: This was an applied descriptive-correlational study. The statistical population included all employees of the Housing Foundation of Islamic Revolution in Isfahan, with at least an associate degree. The Kerjeci-Morgan's table and simple random sampling techniques were used for determination of sample size and selection of samples, respectively. The Kolmogorov-Smirnov test, as well as the Partial and Pearson's Correlation Coefficient were used for data collection and analysis. Findings: There was a significant correlation between all three variables, namely organizational virtue, organizational commitment, and procrastination at work. Investigation into the role of demographic variables in the quantity and quality of relationship between research variables produced the same result. The only exception was with educational level, in which the relationship of organizational virtue with procrastination was not significant. Results from investigation into the relationship between different dimensions of variables showed that organizational virtue dimensions (optimism, trust, and sympathy) were not significantly correlated with continued commitment. The same result was observed with demographic variables, as moderating variables. Investigation into the relationship of procrastination with dimensions of organizational commitment also showed a significant correlation between emotional and continued commitments with procrastination. The same result was also observed with demographic variables. The only exception was with age and educational level, in which emotional commitment and procrastination were not correlated. Finally, a significant correlation was observed between procrastination at work and two dimensions of organizational virtue. Conclusion: To decrease procrastination at work among employees, some measures, including training through performance contagion, should be taken to improve their perception of organizational virtue and organizational commitment.

              The population of Iran has expanded rapidly in the last decades notabley in city areas. Current housing construction has been unable to satisfy the demands some imported industrialised, prefabricated concrete and steel building systems were introduced into Iran to respond to the increasing demand for house building and to improve building construction generally, but these efforts have largely failed. Despite this failure, it is generally understood that industrialised building is the only practical solution to the current problems in Iran of housing shortages and poor quality. This shortages of housing and lack of a relevant construction system to satisfy the demand, are the reasons of this research, and presenting a solution for this problem is, its main aim. Rather than introducing radically new methods of construction which ignore the existing structure of the Construction Industry and construction skills, improvements may be achieved by building upon this structure and the skill. So, neither traditional methods of construction, nor modern imported technology can meet building construction demands successfully; a blend of the two is necessary. It must be noted that besides socio-cultural conditions, any change must consider the present structure of the Construction Industry and the climate natures such as earthquakes in the country.

        The concept of social capital has the potential to direct behavior based on network, norm, value and social trust in the structure. Social capital is considered a desirable element for doing intra-group work, and its existence is necessary for social solidarity and achieving society's goals; The higher the amount of social capital, the lower the cost of society. The purpose of this research is to describe the amount of social capital in terms of demographic variables. The statistical population of this article includes 13 cities of Hormozgan province, and the data was collected from the land survey center and as a whole. The results showed that the social capital of citizens living in Hormozgan province is at an average level, they are all over the country.Also, social capital among men with an average of 2.74, people over 55 years of age 2.79, Shia religion 2.74, people with primary education level 2.92, retirees 2.78 more than others. These statistics are approximately close to the amount of social capital across the country. It shows that men often communicate with a wider range of people due to the connection with the outside environment and as a result of more social activities and being in better social and professional positions than women, and the opportunity to communicate and expand Social ties are much more for men.

        Five-year development plans determine the path of growth and development of our country in economic, social and cultural dimensions. These programs are compiled based on the constitution, the country's 20-year vision document and general policies announced by the Supreme Leader. Due to the important and valuable position of women in society, in all programs, there are provisions dedicated to women's issues in all cultural, social and economic dimensions. Although some of these provisions are useful, they are not enough for this area. The Seventh Development Plan Bill is not an exception to this rule and, despite the good points raised in it, it also faces shortcomings. In this article, the method of categorical content analysis has been used, and the previous development programs have been reviewed, and it has been tried to analyze the materials and clauses mentioned in chapter 16 of the seventh development program, which is dedicated to women, family and the population. To improve and complete the mentioned materials, provide tips, criticisms and suggestions. In this program, we have positive and better points regarding the status of women and family than in previous development programs, still the general evaluation of the proposed rulings in the field of women, family and the young people of the population shows the lack of comprehensiveness in problem analysis and the lack of discourse consensus in it has the field of women and family. So, it has been tried to provide corrective rulings in accordance with each section and the identified challenges Manuscript profile

        Geography of election is a field of geography with background in European countries from mid of 1910s. Later this field was expanded in 1960s along with little revolution in USA. Geography of election considers condition before and after election; on the other words, it analyzes actors of election through spatial point of view. One of the fields for study on geography of election is study on spatial-local condition of ballot-boxes before election; it was tried in this study to analyze 15th district of Tehran municipality using GIS for 2 cases: first case is relationship between demographic zones and quantity of ballot-boxes and second case is way of access to hospital and clinic in case when unexpected accident is occurred. 15th district of Tehran is one of the 22-fold districts of Tehran metropolitan, located in southeastern of Tehran at entrance gate of old Khorasan road. According to predictions of a universal plan, population of this district will be 942400 people in 2021. Therefore, 15th district is one of the important demographic centers. In regard to such condition, spatial-local analyze of GIS maps is considered in this research which accordingly, relationship between population and quantity of ballot-boxes in districts is not suitable; actually ballot-bases of district is not distributed proportionally considering current population in its areas. Moreover, positions of local hospital, firefighting stations as well as clinics existing in this district are considered in relation to ballot-bases. Condition of mentioned district’s access networks is interested and findings are shown lack of a planned systematic network. Manuscript profile

        Iran is one of those countries that has affected by population movements in someperiods of it’s long history. These movements were mostly because of wars andinversions. But in recent century the political and economic aspects have dominatedthe mentioned factors. The historical background of migration in Iran has its roots inthe population, economic and political characteristics and the rate of population growthin Iran in comparison with the whole world has been much more. the spatialdistribution of population is so that some of the areas of Iran enjoy more favorablefacilities for the settlement and suitable activities for the settlers. And this fact resultsin the migration from some areas to other areas.The development policies and the management activities are also among the factorsthat have resulted in unequal development and have facilitated the natural conditions inthe absorbing and driving the population from one area to another. To this factorshould be also be added the type of living and the settlement system of the populationfrom the urban and rural point of view and therefore it should be emphasize on thecontinues reduction of the population of the small villages.The great income difference between cities and villages is not only seen in the wholecountry but also among the provinces and inside them and is one of the backgroundmakingfactors for migration. The unsuitable of investment system in different parts ofthe country from one side and the diversity of environmental conditions with socioeconomicand tribal specifications of the country on the other hand are also of such atype that make many problems and difficulties for a comprehensive definition andpolicy-making, and has limited its effects. In such conditions a more exact survey ofthe subject for finding the essential strategies is unavoidable.Key Words: Iran, population, migration, development, city, rural, socio-economic.

        The identification of the circumstances of the population distribution and its geographical dispersion, in particular between city and village, as well as factors influencing this distribution is necessary for the judicial planning in the country. The economic activities which are divided into three main groups (agriculture, industry and services) are among the numerous factors overshadowing the population distribution. The results of this research show that the activities in the sphere of industry and services have contributed to the concentration of population in the urban areas by creation of job opportunities. The agricultural activities have contributed to the stabilization of the population in the rural areas and the differences of the provinces from the viewpoints of city-dwelling and village-dwelling is somehow due to their difference from the viewpoint of employment proportion in each of the economic activities. Also the change in the proportion of the city-dwelling during 1956 to 2006 results from the changes in the range of employment in the industry and services sectors and changes in the degrees of village-dwelling  has correlation with changes in the proportions of employment in the agricultural activities.

        Introduction and Objectiv: the quality of the urban housing indicators is one of the indicators of the socio - economic development in the countries of the world.in developing countries, including Iran housing supply is one of the Acute issues, are due to the presence of the defects in the planning of Housing and also increase urbanization rapidly. Over the decades, the changes in the city of Tehran have made it important for housing planning. The purpose of this article is to analyze Indicators of the quantitative and economic housing. Method: The method used in this research is based on objective, applied and based on data collection, descriptive and analytical - quantitative. The library and documentation method were used to collect information. Finally, the prediction of population structure (exponential method), housing needs (aggregation and index methods) and housing prices (Arima method) have been addressed in three minimum, average and maximum scenarios. Findings:The research findings indicate that the population of Tehran will reach from 8537000 to 9734000 by 1410 And will require 2863,000 to 3534,000 residential units. It is also expected that the average price per square meter of housing will reach 6.4 to 6.8 million tomans. Conclusion:Housing Analysis in Tehran shows that quantitative indicators of housing have improved and economic indicators of housing have declined. And for the future of Tehran, a scenario with at least population growth and the scenario of maximum housing prices seems more likely.   Manuscript profile

        Background and Objectives: knowledge about the animal Population size is important for Wildlife management and is the main requirement tool for management and is the prerequisite for management. Western mole-vole have special life. It has underground life and for this reason the researchers have been little attention to it. Estimating abundance is important and first information that use wildlife management. Therefore study estimating abundance is done for this species. Method: We use to distance models (T-square sampling and Byth and Ripley). This models don’t need plot and quadrats and Using Seber (1982) model for sample size. Also we use Burnham et al. (1980) for total length of transect and using Ecological Methodology software. Findings: The T-square method, the sample size n=27, density was estimated 56 species per hectare that the 95% confidence interval limits of 38/44 to 63/8 species per hectare (SE=0/0039). The Byth and Ripley method, the sample size n=27, density was estimated 49 species per hectare that the 95% confidence interval limits of 45/2 to 52/6 species per hectare (SE=0/00076). Discussion and Conclusion: The final mean population size was considered 50 species per hectare.   Manuscript profile

        Background and Objective: There are different methods for assessing river water quality. One of these methods is to use the large population structure of bulk invertebrates. Accordingly, this study was carried out to evaluate the quality of water of the Smsami River using large invertebrates. Method: In this study, 7 stations were selected along the 10 km of Samsami River and sampling was done in a one-year period every 45 days. Data were collected as population measurements including total richness, EPT richness, EPT frequency ratio to Chironomidae family, Shannon-Wiener diversity index and biological index in Hallesinof family. Findings: The results of this study included 11 orders and 45 groups (family and sex) of the large invertebrates, the larvae of aquatic insects had the highest diversity and abundance. The maximum and minimum mean of total frequency per square meter during the study period was at station 2, (1694 ± 232.72) and (314.71 ± 13.7) At station 7 respectively. The dominant orders in this study were Ephemeroptera, Trichoptera. Discussion and Conclusion: Evaluations showed that in stations 2 and 6, due to the entry of rural wastewater and fish farming, the quality of river water has changed and the frequency and frequency of infected families have decreased and contaminated groups have increased. Based on this, it can be concluded that the use of the measurement of the diversity and abundance of large invertebrates as an indicator of the biological contamination of water is a good way to evaluate the water quality of the river.

        In recent years, the use of plants for soil remediation has been of much interest. Much effort has been put into lab work to obtain experimental data, but despite the great importance of theoretical aspect, less attention has been paid to this issue. The present study is an effort to investigate the theoretical and mathematical concepts governing this process. Basic definitions are presented briefly. Also, the governing mechanisms are discussed. After presenting the continuity and mass transfer equations, first the validity of the obtained equations is verified in a real example with experimental data. Then, the equations are solved numerically and the results are studied and discussed. The findings show that variables such as root length (as an index of plant species), humidity, soil texture and the other parameters, which appear in the equations, affect the process. Moreover, by the proper selection of plants, the operation provided a model which can predict the result of phytoremediation. Manuscript profile

        Abstract Background and Objective: The world’s population is ageing and virtually every country in the world is experiencing growth in the number and proportion of older persons in its population. It is predicted that old population will double from 2015 to 2030 in Iran. Actually, more than half of the world’s population lives in urban areas, and urbanization rate is over 70% in Iran. Therefore, the main purpose of this study is to investigate the impact of population ageing and urbanization on air pollution over the period of 1971 to 2013 in Iran. Method: In this study, based on the results of variables stationary, the Autoregressive Distributed Lag (ARDL) approach was applied. Findings: The results revealed that the relationship between old population and CO2 emission per capita is inverted U-shaped and statistically significant, and CO2 emission initially increases with the increase of old population and then drops with the increase of old population. Moreover, the results imply that a relative increase in urbanization in the short and long terms is associated with the increase of CO2 emissions per capita. It was also found that gross domestic production and energy consumption per capita positively affect CO2 emissions per capita in the short and long terms. Technological advances have a significant positive effect on per capita CO2 emissions in the long term. Discussion and Conclusion: In this study, according to the urbanization coefficient which has the greatest influence on pollution emissions (3.63 in the long term), the measures should be taken by policymakers to minimize the damage of urbanization growth to the environment. In other words, urban development plans should be designed in harmony with the environmental issues.   Manuscript profile

        Background and Objectives: Soil microbial properties such as biomass, microbial respiration and nitrogen mineralization can be used as indicators to show the stress caused by heavy metal pollution on soil quality. The aim of this study was the measurement soil microbial activity to evaluate the effect of soil Ni contamination on soil quality and determination of ecological dose 50 (ED50). Method: This study was conducted as a factorial experiment in year 2016 based on a randomized completely design with three replications. The experiment factors including Ni concentration in six levels (0, 50, 100, 150, 300 and 600 mg Ni kg-1) and two incubation times (15 and 60 days). Soils sample was spiked uniformly with different concentrations of NiCl2. Microbial respiration, microbial biomass carbon, heterotrophic population and metabolic quotient were measured after incubation times of 15 and 60 days, then according to the results, ED50 was determined by using the dose-response curve. Findings: Soil Nickel contamination on the indicator was significantly effective at P<0.01 level. Heterotrophic population, respiration and microbial carbon biomass decreased significantly (P<0.01) compared to control by increasing the Ni concentration and incubation times, whereas the increase of Ni concentration and incubation times were not significantly affected on metabolic quotient. The minimum amount of microbial respiration, microbial biomass carbon, and the heterotrophic population was observed at the end of incubation times and 600 mg Ni kg-1 with 77.07, 75.72 and 99.99% decrement compared to the control, respectively. ED50 value (mg/kg soil) of microbial respiration, microbial biomass carbon, and heterotroph population increased from 77.55, 78.63, 81.34 to 97.84, 111.04 and 84.67 respectively, with increased incubation time. Discussion and Conclusion: The soil contaminated with Nickel acutely decreased the biological activity of soil and the ecological dose increased with increasing the incubation time, suggesting that toxicity of Ni to soil microbial activity was decreased with increased incubation time. Ni concentration of 100 mgNikg-1 soil can be considered as the critical range of Ni for soil quality at which negative effect was observed. Manuscript profile

        Background and Objective: Population size and composition are the most important factors affecting the quality of the environment. Empirical studies of the impact of demographic factors on pollution emissions have very different results. Identifying the impact of these variables on the quality of environment, can play a significant role in formulation and adoption of policies and environmental regulations. Method: Using econometric analysis, STRIPAT model and carbon dioxide emissions data among the D8 group from 1995 to 2010, the impact of demographic variables such as population size, age of population, urbanization and concentration of population and also the impact of Gross Domestic Product (GDP) on carbon dioxide emissions have been examined in this study. Results: The results indicate that the population size and concentration of population, have no significant effect on greenhouse gas emissions. On the other hand, the population aged between 15 to 64 years, urbanization, and per capita real income, respectively indicating the greatest impact on carbon dioxide emissions among D8member states. Conclusion:High rate of emissions related to the population raging from 15 to 64 years old in our society is important, because age distribution of the population in this age range has become more concenterated. Since this age range has a high proportion of production, economic growth and energy consumption, it has a high impact on CO2 emissions. Therefore, the environmental damage by users should be reduced to the lowest level through some measurments such as cultural environmental training and energy efficiency increase.     Manuscript profile

        Among the most important concerns of policy makers in monetary and financial markets and particularly in stock exchange are supervising how to make decision and what are the influencing variables on decision making by the activists of this field. The general aim of the current study is to investigate the role of demographic factors in explaining the risk tolerance of real investors and their risk-taking behavior. The main question of this research is to identify the impact of demographic factors such as: gender, age, marital status, education, job status and income on the level of risk tolerance and risk-taking of real investors. The statistical population of the present study was real people who are active on the stock exchange. The sample size was 384 individuals. In addition to expert opinions, factor analysis was used to confirm validity and reliability. Finally, in order to demonstrate the validity of the research model findings, the fitting indexes of structural equation models were used by partial least squares method. The results of current study revealed that the level of risk tolerance and risk taking for men is more than women. In addition, age, education, job status and income have significant effect on level of risk tolerance and risk taking. The results also indicated that  marital status has no significant effect on risk tolerance and risk taking. Manuscript profile

        Planting permanent cover crops is an eco-friendly approach for reducing weed problems without use of chemical. In order to study effect of perennial cover crop, in comparison with annual cover crops, on weed control and weed community structure this research was conducted in an apple orchard interrows for 2 yr in Gazvin province. Treatments were: Festuca ovina, Festuca arundinacea, Lolium perene, Bromus inermis with replant and without replant, Secale cereal and control (without weed control). In the first spring, perennial cover crops and S. cereal reduced weeds dry weight 70 and 100%, respectively, and in the second spring perennial cover crops in average and S. cereal reduced weeds dry weight 58 and 94%, respectively. In the second year Bromus inermis and Festuca ovina reduced weeds dry weight 10 and 30% more than other perennial cover crops. Replant needed for establishment of perennial cover crops. Cover crops treatments had effect on weed community structure, as weed composition in the end of second year in Bromus inermis and Festuca arundinacea was different from control. However, weed composition in Lolium perene and F. ovina was same as control. Perennial cover crops can be an effective weed management in organic orchards. Manuscript profile

        To evaluate the population and diversity of weeds in wheat fields in Qazvin, Iran, an experiment was conducted during 2015-2016 growing season. A net sampling method was employed to take samples from 9 fields of 3-hectar area which were managed either in dry farming, no-tillage, or irrigated systems. Samples were taken at two growing stages when wheat plants were at tillering and when they reached full stem growth stage. The highest population and diversity of weeds was observed in dry farming system and the lowest was seen in irrigated system. The frequency of weed population was lowest in no-till system. The highest grain yield (6231 kg/ha) and total dry matter (18580 kg/ha) was measured in irrigated system, and the lowest grain yield (2078 kg/ha) and total dry matter (60180 kg/ha) was obtained in dry farming system, respectively. Based on the low weed population and a grain yield of 5830 kg/ha in no-till system, it seems that this production system is economically and environmentally justifiable for wheat production in Qazvin Provence, Iran.

        Abstract The aim of this study was to comparison of personality traits between patients with Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS) and normal matched group. An ex-post- facto design were used and subjects were 35 (21 female and 14 male in 14-65 old age range) IBS patients diagnosed by gastroenterologist and normal matched group. Short form of NEO (Haghshenas, 2004) inventory and a checklist applied as measures of personality traits and demographic information. Data were analyzed with independent t-testis and chi square and indicated that IBS patients significantly are higher in neuroticism and lower in extroversion than normal group (p < .01). Although no significant differences were found in openness, agreeableness, and conscientiousness between tow group. Also were found that there are some relations between IBS and demographic status such as order of birth, marital status, and age (p < .05). It seems that personality traits have an important role in severity and duration of symptoms in IBS patients. Key words: Irritable Bowel Syndrome, Personality Traits, Demographic Status.

        The Heart moth, Dicycla oo (L.) (Lepidoptera: Noctuidae), attacked a part of oak forests in Fars province of Iran in recent years. The larvae severely feed on buds and sprouts and cause the tree to be defoliated from leaves. The pest biological characteristic was studied in the Moordak region of the Kazeroon district during 2004-2007. The results showed that the pest had only one generation in a year. The life of the pest in egg stage was spent beneath the egg scales which had the same color to the oak barks in a part of spring, whole summer and winter. The neonate larvae appeared on the swelling buds from the first half of the March. The duration of embryonic period, larval stages, pre-pupae, pupae and adult longevity took long (320&plusmn;8.37), (25&plusmn;2.12), (3&plusmn;0.34), (8&plusmn;0.84), and (10&plusmn;0.71) days respectively. The sex ratio was estimated 1:1 in laboratory and field conditions. The male and female adult longevity was determined 7 and 9 days, respectively. The first moths appeared in the late of April. The peak of moth&rsquo;s flight occurred on 30th April to 9th May. The morphological characteristics including oviposition rate, body dimensions, head capsule width, pupae body dimensions, and adults were measured. The Male and female moths after forming was sent to Dr. Michael Fibiger in Denmark for confirmed of genus and species. Manuscript profile

        Tortrix viridana is a serious pest of oaks in the Kamfirooz oak forests.Oak bud tortricid (Tortrix viridana) has five larval instars in Kamfirooz oak forests. The pest overwinters as diaposed eggs. The first larval instar emergence coincides with tree budburst when they enter bud scales. First instar larvae appear between 10th to late march, depending on weather condition. Weather parameters such as low temperature at the time of egg hatching determine losses of the pest to the host tree. First, second, third, fourth and fifth instars of the pest take 4-7, 5-8, 5-8, 6-12 and 7-14 days respectively. Pest larvae make their feeding sites by attaching leaves in clusters through webbing.&nbsp; Larvae suspend themselves from a fine silken thread until they find a suitable feeding site and when there is a crowd of larvae on the some branches of the trees, larval movement between trees through hanging can be facilitated by wind. Many predators including spiders, ants, beetles and occasionally birds feed on pest larvae. The pest finishes its larval stages between 26 and 47 days (with an average 31.5 days). Pupal stage lasts 1-2 weeks. Trees can offset pest damages after pest outbreak, provided rainy winter precede, but if pest outbreak occurs in a year with low precipitation followed by a dry and hot summer, high losses due to pest will be unavoidable. Egg, larva, pupa and adult temporal distribution frequencies were 72.61, 10.14, 2.73, and 14.52 percent respectively. Direction had no significant effect on pest damage. Pest moths emerge during late April up through mid may. Moth population reaches its peak within 2-3 weeks after its appearance, and gradually disappears after its unimodal peak. Swarming as a social phenomenon may be observed during the emergence of adults. Twenty species of Aranidae belong to more than 7 families including Lycacidae, Oplinoidae, Clubionidae, Araneidae, Ulobridae, Phomicidae, Salticidae, four species of Coleoptera including Tenebrionidae (one unidentified species) and three coccinellids (Coccinellidae) as well as four species of Hymenoptera were among frequently collected natural enemies of the pest. Population dynamics of Exochomus quadripustulatus, one of the important coccinellids was also studied in sampling plots.&nbsp; Manuscript profile

        The cabbage white butterfly, Pierisrapae (Linnaeus, 1758) (Lep.: Pieridae) is one of the most important pests of Cruciferous or Brassicaceaefamily plants in regions of Shahriar, Kahrizak and Sahr&rsquo;e Ray and every year its damage can be seen on the leaves of these plants. In order to study the seasonal population fluctuation of P. rapae, One hectare cauliflower field in the middle of a large field was randomly selected in five regions of cauliflower fields in southof Tehran were chosen and sampled every 10 days. Each plant was presumed as a sampling unit and sample size was determined as 20 host plants and all eggs, larvae and pupa on the host plant were recorded. Results of this study showed that Jahanabad and Shahed fields had the highest egg density (18.91&plusmn;5.60) and the lowest egg density (16.53&plusmn;4.04) was seen in the Playin field during season. In the Shahed field, highest egg density occurred in June 19 and the lowest egg density was seen on October 25. In the Playin field, the highest and lowest egg density was seen on September 29 and June 19, respectively. In the Jahanabad field the highest (2.99&plusmn;0.66) and lowest (0.41&plusmn;0.10) larval density was occurred during the season among different regions. Highest density was observed in the Jahanabad field during the harvest time on October 25 and the lowest larval density was seen on June 19. The highest and lowest larval density was seen in the field of Playin&nbsp; on 25rd October and 19th June, respectively. Kahrizak (0.87&plusmn;0.16) and Playin (0.19&plusmn;0.05) fields had the highest and lowest pupal density in different regions during the season. In the field of Kahrizak, highest pupal density was occurred on 25rd October and in the playin field, the lowest pupal density was seen on 19th June. In the Playin field, highest density of pupae was occurred on 14th October and 25rd October and the lowest density of pupae was observed on 19th June and 2th July, respectively. The results showed that number of larval and pupal stages based on units density, between all experimental regions and Shahed university station had not significant difference. Manuscript profile

        The predator bugs (Heteroptera) are one of the powerful natural enemies in almost agro-ecosystems which have important role in biological control programs. In attention to presence of diverse pests in rice fields and importance of this crop as the main food in Northern Iran, species diversity and population fluctuation of predator bugs were studied in rice fields of Mazandaran province through 2005 - 2006. In a total, 20 species of predator bugs were collected and identified from rice fields of Mazandaran province. Of the collected species, eight species including, Oncocephalus pilicornis&nbsp;Reuter, Oncocephalus plumicornis (Germar), Reduvius pallipes Klug, Rhynocoris iracundus (Poda) and Coranus cf. niger Rambur of family Reduviidae, Stenodema calcaratum (Fieb.), Orthotylus flavosparsus (C.Sahlb.) of family Miridae, and Brachynema puncticornis Rt. of family Pentatomidae are newly recorded from Iran. The results of population fluctuation indicated that the density of predator bugs increases through the crop season gradually, but application of insecticides causes damage to the density population severely. Also, the population density of predator bugs was varied through a day; the most abundant of population was obtained in hours 10 and 18, because of moderate climate. These beneficial insects rest beyond the rice seedlings and among the weeds around the fields through the hours 12 - 16, because of high temperature and humidity in rice fields. The results of population density of predator bugs on three rice varieties including, Fajr, Khazar, and Nemat indicated that highest density was obtained from Fajr and there was not significant difference between the two other varieties. Since the Fajr is a sensitive variety to C. suppressalis and the pest population density on it is higher than other studied varieties, there is higher density of heteropteran predators on this variety than the two others.

        Site-specific weed management (SSWM) is a strategy of varying weed management within a crop field to match the variation in location, density and composition of the weed population. This concept is based on three facts: 1) weed populations are often irregularly distributed within crop fields, 2) new sensors and platforms together with geospatial technologies (e.g., GPS, GIS) have provided the tools required to detect and map weeds, and 3) new smart sprayers, robots and mechanical cultivators have provided the possibility of careful tailoring of weed management to fit the different conditions found in each field. Site-specific weed management has a real potential to deliver a more productive and sustainable agricultural production based on a more precise and resource-efficient approach. This paper reviews the major conceptual approaches and specifications for the design of site-specific weed management decision support systems (SSWM-DSS), recent advances in the use of remote and ground platforms and sensors for information gathering and processing, and initial experiences translating this information into chemical and physical weed control actuations through decision algorithms and models.

        A research was conducted in Yasouj region to determine population dynamics of the gypsy moth in 2006 and 2007. Also it was aimed to calculate the correlation coefficient between the population densities of 2006 and 2007, in order to build a predictive model for the pest. The number of overwintering egg masses was counted during the winter months in ten different orchards. The number of egg masses of the pest was recorded at weekly intervals in ten orchards during the growth seasons in 2006 and 2007. Results indicated that the egg mass densities were 1.71 &plusmn; 0.2 and 2.88 &plusmn; 0.3 per fifty squares meter and 342 &plusmn; 22 and 576 &plusmn; 37 egg masses per hectare in winters 2006 and 2007, respectively. Regression analysis of the pest population density in 2006 and 2007 indicated that only 32.37% of the 2007 population variance could be accounted for the population density in 2006. It was obvious that more than 68% of the population changes are under the influence of unknown biotic and abiotic environmental factors. &nbsp;&nbsp; &nbsp; Manuscript profile

        According to this research the population dynamics of cabbage aphid andidentification the natural enemies in canola farms in the north of the Fars province that have been done during the years 2009 &ndash; 2010. Three species of aphids have been known; Myzus persica Sulzer, Brevicoryne brassicae (L.)and Aphis gossypii Glover. The cabbage aphid was the dominate species with 75.5% abundance. M. persicae and A. gossypii with 16.5% and 8% relative abundance in order were in the second ranges. Also in order to consider the population dynamics of cabbage aphid in the selected farms with 2 hectare spaces for each, gathering 30 leaves regularly by random from canola bushes weekly. So on the basis of these samplings it has been considered that the aphid population began at the middle of March until the middle of May at the time of blossom and sheathes was at the highest point, with the average temperature 7.5&ordm;C daily and 77% R.H. Also regarding the natural enemies, 13 species of predatory and 1 species of parasitoid in the Coccinelledae, Syrphidae, Chrysopidae and Braconidae families have been gathered. This study revealed that in the canola farms the peak of natural enemies density occurred after the aphid's population peak of the late growing season. The most abundant predators were as follow: Coccinella septempunctata (L.), Scaeva albomaculata (Macquart 1842) and Chrysoperla carnea (Stephens 1836). Also a species of parasitoid Diaeretiella rapae (M'Intosh 1855) has been found. Manuscript profile

        Sitobion avenae (F.) is an important species infesting wheat spikes in region Dehloran, Iran. To evaluate the spatial distribution of O. avenae on wheat, weekly samplings were carried out from five winter wheat fields around Dehloran throughout 2010-2011. Spatial distribution of different developmental stages and morphs of the aphid were described by fitting data to Poisson (random) and negative binomial (clumped) distributions. Based on R2&nbsp;and F of regression analysis, Taylor&rsquo;s power law provided a more adequate description of variance/mean relationships than Iwao&rsquo;s patchiness regression model, and the b values ranged from 1.102 (alate adults) to 1.463 (apterous adults). Other distribution indexes and spatial distribution models showed the cumulative distribution of aphid population on clusters and fitting to negative binominal distribution in many section of season. Mature winged aphids were more likely to show a random distribution compared to other developmental stages. &nbsp; Manuscript profile

        The common pistachio psylla, Agonoscena pistaciae Burckhardt &amp; Lauterer is known as the major pest in the pistachio plantation areas of Iran. The psyllid&rsquo;s density on different pistachio cultivars is usually varied. Density and population dynamics of A. pistaciae were monitored at field condition on Badami-riz Zarand and Momtaz as two native and local pistachio cultivars in Zarand vicinity, Kerman province, South of Iran. Results showed that the psyllid nymphs&rsquo; density on Momtaz was larger than on Badami-riz Zarand through the whole sampling time from April to October significantly. Psyllid nymphs&rsquo; density was grown up from late July, however this trend was drastically high from August and afterward. In addition the adult psyllid abundance was 3 times larger on Momtaz cultivar twigs than Badami-riz Zarand through the growing seasons. The relative abundances of adult psyllid on yellow sticky traps in the Momtaz pistachio orchard was significantly larger than the Badami-riz Zarand orchard, however the fluctuations&rsquo; trends were similar at both orchards. The population dynamics and density of A. pistaciae on two pistachio cultivars were compared and discussed in present article. Manuscript profile

        Abundance of Thrips tabaci Lind., an important pest of vegetables, was investigated on upper and lower leaves of different genotypes of eggplant, including Siah-Mashhad, Borazjan, Black beauty, Siah-Neyshabour, Zabul indigenous, Imami-905, Juybar-Mazandaran, Sarkhoun-Hormozgan and Galami-Varamin, during 2000-2001 in Varamin region. Eggplant seedlings were cultivated in May in a randomized complete block design with three replications. Each replication consisted of four rows of 10 plants. Five leaves were randomly sampled at weekly intervals until October to estimate the incidence and population fluctuation of T. tabaci. The number of thrips was counted on the surface of four square centimeters of leaves using a binocular microscope. All analyses and comparisons were carried out using statistical package SAS. The results showed that there was a significant difference between the number of thrips on upper and lower leaves, so that the number of thrips on lower leaves were several times higher than that of on upper leaves. Borazjan and Juybar-Mazandaran with the mean number of 1.55 and 0.86 had the highest population in 2000 and 2001, respectively. In complex analysis, there was no significant difference between the thrips abundance on lower and upper leaves. Incidence of thrips faced with increase from June, and the maximum number was recorded in early until late July in both years. The results indicated that, a trend of increase initiated from late June in Varamin. Borazjan had more thrips than other genotypes and the thrips abundance in the first year was two times of the second year. Manuscript profile

        Palatoria blanchardi Targ. is an important of date palm in Iran. The population was monitored monthly by leaf sampling during 4 years (2000-2004). Sample unit was 3 leaves that taken from 3 strata of the palm canopy of ten trees. Weather data (temperature and relative humidity) were obtained from Abadan meteorology station. Correlation analysis and sigmoid models including Monomolecular, Logistic, Gompertz, Weibull and Richard models were used to study the relationship between population density and&nbsp; weather parameters. Pest activities started in March and population increased by increasing of temperature and humidity. Result showed that there were three overlapping periods of activities in field. The first, second and third periods of activities started in April, September and December respectively. The first period was longest and the third period was shortest. There was significant correlation between population abundance and weather condition including temperature and relative humidity. The order of relative influences of climatic factors on seasonal population fluctuation showed that the effect of temperature was greater than the effect of relative humidity. The highest population occurred when temperature was between 16 &ordm; C and 24 &ordm; C and relative humidity was between 42 and 63 percent.&nbsp; Manuscript profile

        Cotton plant, Gossypium hirsutum L., is one of the most economic crop around the world and in GonbadKavous (located in North of Iran) is an important cotton cropping region. The spider mites (Tetranychus spp., Acari: Tetranychidae) are the most damaging pests on the field crops. Use of resistant cultivar is one of the foremost accepted chemical-free techniques for controlling this pest. A two year study was conducted to evaluate resistance of two most-cultivated cultivars, sahel and siokra, against spider mites. The results showed that there was a significant difference in population of spider mites, so that the population on Sahel was more than Siokra for two years studied. The separate population figures for each year recorded 10.3 &plusmn; 0.6 eggs and 24.2 &plusmn; 1.3 mites on Sahel, 7.4 &plusmn; 0.4 eggs and 15.9 &plusmn; 0.9 mites on Siokra in first year whereas it was 22.6 &plusmn; 2.1 eggs and 35.2 &plusmn; 2.6 mites and also 8.6 &plusmn; 0.5 eggs and 16.9 &plusmn; 1.1 mites in second year for them. Mite&rsquo;s populations increased from mid-season to the end of growing period. The results showed that effects of ambient temperatures on egg populations and number of active stages of mites was more favorable on Sahel compared with Siokra. Population assessment of mites on these two cultivars can be used in management of the pest.&nbsp; Manuscript profile

        Bemisia tabaci (Gennadius.) (Homoptera: Aleyrodidae) is one of the most important pests of crops, greenhouses, and ornamental plants. In this study, the sub-lethal effect of Teucrium polium(Lamark)(Lamiales:Lamiaceae) on parameters of life table age- bisexual stage of B. tabaci (Gennadius.) was evaluated on the sensitive cultivar ( Ergon) and resistant cultivar (Cal-JN3) of Lycopersicon esculentum . 2-4 leaves seedlings of L. esculentum from sensitive and resistant cultivar were submerged in methanol extract of T. polium and water+ methanol (control) and were placed in cup cages. 30 imago insects of the same age were released in the cup cage and after 24 hours the imago insects were omitted and the eggs whose age was less than 24 hours were kept. The sexuality of the imago insects exiting these eggs exposed to the contaminated plant was determined and the rate of spawning of the female insect was daily recorded to the last day of its life. The experiment was investigated in a glass greenhouse and 27+ 2 &nbsp;temperature and relative moisture of 50 &plusmn; 5 and in lighting conditions of 16 hours of light and 8 hours of darkness. The results showed that there is a significant difference in the one percent level.

Iwao&rsquo;s&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; regression had higher determination coefficients (r2=0.93) and showed a better fit as compared to r2 values calculated by Taylor&rsquo;s power law (r2=0.86). Iwao&rsquo;s patchiness regression slope (&beta;=1.07&plusmn;0.05) was not significantly larger than 1.0. Consequently, random dispersion pattern was determined for over-wintered adults in rainfed wheat fields. Therefore, Kuno&rsquo;s fixed precision sequential sampling scheme based on Iwao&rsquo;s parameters was constructed for overwintered adults of E. integriceps. An additional nine independent data sets, was used to validate the fixed-precision sequential sampling plans with resampling software of RVSP. Sample size curves indicated that estimating over-wintered adult population in rainfed field can be accomplished with a few sampling efforts when population is &gt;2 insects per quadrat. For example only six samples need to be taken for the over-wintered adults, on average to achieve a precision of 0.25 (Dexp=0.25) when =3 insects per quadrat. However, sample sizes increase suddenly when population density is less than 0.3 insects per quadrat. Based on these results, 1*1m quadrat is not recommended to estimate number of over-wintered adults in rainfed wheat field. Manuscript profile

        The Cucurbits fly Dacus ciliates (Dip.,Tephritidae) is one of the most important pest on cucurbit crops in different parts of the Khuzestan province, Iran. Population dynamics of the pest was studied on three varieties (Spring cucumber, Armenian cucumber and Fall cucurbit) in Safi Abad agricultural and natural resource research and education center of Dezful, in spring and fall, in 2009. The number of adults caught in yellow sticky traps, the eggs and larvae of different ages were counted weekly in infected fruits. The results showed that there were three population peaks of immature stages in all varieties. The highest number of adults in Spring cucumber caught was 6.65 per trap in middle of Jun and in Armenian cucumber was 4.35 in the late of Jun and in Fall cucurbit was 9.5 adult per trap in the Oct. The Iwao, s Index and Taylor, power law were applied to evaluate spatial distribution of the egg and Immature stages. Results showed that Taylor, s power law gave a better fitness result for egg and Immature stages. The results of this research could be apply in integrated pest management of cucurbit fly.

        The cabbage aphid, Brevicoryne brassicae L. (Hem., Aphididae) is one of the most important pests of rapeseed and most other crucifera in many parts of the world. In this study, demographic parameters including life table, reproduction and population growth parameters of two populations of B. Brassica, collected fromShiraz and Gorgan, were studied. Experiments were conducted in laboratory conditions at 25&plusmn;1&ordm;C, 60&plusmn;5% relative humidity and a photoperiod of 16:8 hours (L: D). Data were analyzed according to Jackknife method using SAS and MINITAB statistical softwares. The results indicated that, there was significant difference between mean preimaginal developmental time of aphid in two population of Shiraz and Gorgan (P&lt;0.05). There was a significant difference between mean lifespan of aphid in two population of Shiraz and Gorgan. The life expectancy of newly emerged adults was 7.92 and 9.46 days in two populations of Shiraz and Gorgan, respectively. The gross fecundity rate in Shiraz population was higher than Gorgan population. There was a significant difference between gross fecundity rate in two population of Shiraz and Gorgan (P&lt;0.01). The net reproduction rate was 9.22 and 7.54 females per female per generation in Shiraz and Gorgan population, respectively. The intrinsic rate of increase in two populations of Shiraz and Gorgan were 0.21 and 0.19 females/female/day, respectively. The finite rates of increase were obtained 1.23 and 1.21 days in Shiraz and Gorgan populations, respectively. The mean generation time of aphid was 10.58 and 10.48 days in two populations of Shiraz and Gorgan, respectively. The doubling time of aphid was 3.30 and 3.59 days in Shiraz and Gorgan populations, respectively. Manuscript profile

        The pomegranate fruit moth, Ectomyelois ceratoniae Zeller, and quince moth, Euzophera bigella Zeller, are the major frugivorous pest. They cause qualitative and quantitative losses of pomegranate fruit. Sexual pheromone traps may provide a real estimation of adult emergence and flight activity periods, emigration and immigration of such pests. To fulfill such a purpose, an experiment was performed to observe the population fluctuation of E. ceratoniae and E. bigella using synthetic pheromone traps in pomegranate orchards of Tang-e-Siab Koohdasht (Lorestan, Iran), in 2011. Adults of E. ceratoniae and E. bigella appeared in late April and May, respectively, and their flights continued until mid November. These pests populations showed four and three flight peaks during the growth season, respectively. The quince moth's population was higher than on pomegranate fruit moth's population, while the peak of the moth flight was between late July to early August. So in the pomegranate orchards of Lorestan region, in addition to pomegranate fruit moth, quince moth is one of the important fruit pests. The quince moth appears a month later in comparison to pomegranate fruit moth and both are active until the end of the season. Manuscript profile

        The lepidopterans Euzophera bigella (Zeller) (Pyralidae) and Cydia pomonella (L.) (Tortricidae) are the most important pests of quince trees in Iran, as they cause the qualitative and quantitative losses on quince fruits. The present study was performed to monitor the population fluctuations of E. bigella and L. pomonella using synthetic pheromone traps at quince orchards in Falavarjan (Isfahan, Iran). In addition, the influence of climatic factors on population fluctuations was studied. It was found that E. bigella adults appeared in early March, showing four population peaks during growth season. The adults of L. pomonella were, however, showed up in middle March with five seasonal population peaks. The populations of male E. bigella were positively correlated with relative humidity, weekly rainfall (up to 3.5 mm), weekly means of minimum and maximum relative humidity and temperature (higher than 25 &deg;C). In addition, when rainfall was 1.2 mm, no significant effects of weekly means of minimum and maximum relative humidity and temperature were observed on E. bigella densities. The population densities of male E. bigella also showed a significant positive correlation (r = 0.58) with relative humidity. Manuscript profile

        Codling moth Cydia pomonella L. (Lep., Tortricidae) is the most important pest in iranian apple orchards. In order to avoid the unnecessary usage of chemical pesticides, using pheromone traps is the most effective control way. We have used these traps in 4 areas of different altitudes in Urmia villages. We counted the trapped insects twice a week. The results showed that this pest has three full generations in Urmia and their maiden appearance is in late April, with each generation peak in late May, mid-July and mid-August. The results show the best time to counter the pest is in the first generation, 5 to 7 days after flight peak and the 2nd and 3rd generations 4 to 5 days after flight peak. Manuscript profile

        Pronematus ubiquitus (McGregor) is a common predatory of fig pest mites in Iran and other part of the world. Investigation on population abundance of predatory mite was carried out on 11 commercial fig varieties in Saveh, a city of Iran during two years (2000-2001) in Saveh region. Complete randomize block designed with four replications and each replicate consisted of a fig tree selected for the experiment. Fortnight sampling was followed from May up to middle of November. Abundance of P. ubiquitus on leaves were counted under stereo microscope by help of&nbsp; 4 squares centimeters plastic hallow frame which placed randomly bilateral of midrib under side of the leaf. Analysis of variance on collected mite data showed statistically significant at level of five percent. Maximum mean population density of mite recorded 9.82 and 11.32 mites for American No. 2 and minimum for Black Varamin 0.19 mites respectively during two years studies. Increasing predatory mite statistically was found significant with decreasing mean of temperature during Sept. &ndash;Nov. Maximum abundance of predatory mite was recorded during Oct.&ndash;Nov. with reduction of prey mobility, temperature and photoperiodic according to Duncan multiple range test (DMRT) method.

        The sour oranges is a horticultural crop in Iran and planted as ornamental trees all over the world (except polar regions) such as the north of Iran. The citrus cottony scales Pulvinaria aurantii Ckll. feeds on the foliage and stems of citrus trees and cause tree dieback in heavy infestation. In order to estimate the seasonal population fluctuations in Babol (Mazandaran province, Iran), sampling were done at the height of 1.5 to 2.5 meter of citrus trees&nbsp; and samples were collected from four&nbsp; geographical directions and three points including initial, medial and apical 40 cm of the branches. Further information such as daily temperature, relative humidity, and the amount of rainfalls simultaneously were recorded in each sampling date. The maximum number of population was observed in the January of 2014. We found that this species completes four generations per year. Based on the results of this study the best time for managements of the 1st, 2nd, 3rd and 4th generation of P. aurantii Ckll.&nbsp;in Babol is May, September, and to spot spraying in November and December, respectively. Pruning can be usefull too. In this study, natural enemies&rsquo; minority were observed which may be related to the insecticide treatments, absence of intermediate host and also the environmental pollution. Our results could lead to improve integrated pest management for P. aurantii Ckll.populations in the north of Iran. Manuscript profile

The result showed that the mean density of T. longisetosus and T. turkestani on Golden delicious and Golab varieties were 3.35&plusmn;0.67, 4.02&plusmn;0.91 and 1.022&plusmn;0.12, 1.26&plusmn;0.45 per leaf, respectively. The mean density of Z. mali were 0.829&plusmn;0.23 and 1.057&plusmn;0.25 per leaf on Golden delicious and Golab varieties, respectively. Comparison of mean densities on two varieties was done by t-test and showed no significant differences between mean densities on two varieties. Spatial distribution of two species was determined by Taylor's power law, Morisita's coefficient and index of dispersion. Taylor's power law showed that spatial distribution of T. longisetosus on Golden delicious and Golab varieties wasaggregated and random, respectively. T. turkestani was distributed in aggregated pattern on Golab variety and there was no significant relationship between its parameters on Golden delicious, in this way Z. mali was distributed randomly on two varieties too. Aggregated spatial distribution of all species was determined by Morisita's coefficient and index of dispersion on two varieties in most cases. Linear regression between mean density of phytophagous and predaceous mites showed that the predator acts as density independent. Apple varieties have no effect on population density of studied mites but make an effect on spatial distribution of them to some extents.&nbsp; Manuscript profile

Six diets were included pistachio, walnut, almond, date, figs and artificial diet. Results of this research revealed that the shortest period of pre-adult durations of parasitoid wasps on pistachio (9.92 days) and the longest period on figs diet (15.61 days). The highest sex ratio was observed on pistachio and artificial diets (0.52) and the lowest in figs and dates (0.46). The longest adult female longevity was on pistachio diet (30.50 days) and the shortest on fig (28.35days). The highest mean total number of eggs laid by H. hebetor was observed in pistachio diets (348.5-eggs) and the lowest in figs (306.09 eggs). The lowest duration of one generation (T) was on pistachio diet (15.61days) and the highest duration on figs (22.05days). Pistachio and artificial diet had the highest intrinsic rate of increase (rm) with 0.332 and 0.327 (day-١). Similarly, pistachio and artificial diet had the highest finite rate of increase ( ) with 1.39 (day-١). According to the results of the present study, pistachio and artificial diets were identified as the best diet for rearing H. hebetor. However, due to the fact that artificial diet is cheaper and more economical compared to other diets studied, so artificial diet can be used for mass-rearing programs of H. hebetor.

        S.exigua, S. litura and S. littoralis with a wide host range are the most important pests of beet. spread all over the word while two other species S. littoralis and S. litura are more limited. Spread seasonal fluctuations of these species population along the growing season were studied by green funnel traps that were bated by sexual pheromone in a beet farm near Esfahan in 2010. S. exigua and S. littoralis were captured in traps but S. litura was not captured in pheromone traps because S. exigua and S. littoralis are similar concerning their molecules and their proportion. From mid-October as the weather gets cold, it reduced to the least. The average of trapped of S. littoralis was low till August and almost was fixed and any max or min was not observed. But trapped pests increased from 9Th September and it became maximum in mid-October. Results showed that the time of activation of these species were different in that the population of S. exigua was more than S. littoralis in the beginning of growing season of beet till late summer. But in the end of growing season means the population of S. littoralis was increase in late summer till autumn and over numbered to S. exigua population. Manuscript profile

        The intrinsic rate of population increase (r) is one of the most important biological attributes of insects which is highly influenced by ambient temperature. In the present research, the response of Habrobracon hebetor (Say) (Hym.: Braconidae) intrinsic rate of population increase reared on Galleria mellonella L. (Lep.: Pyralidae) larvae was evaluated at 6 different temperatures (20, 22.5, 25, 27.5, 30, 32.5 ℃), 65&plusmn;5% RH and 16:8 h L:D. For each temperature 80 to 250 fresh eggs of the wasp were reared as a cohort. The r was calculated using TWOSEX-MSChart software and obtained values were fitted to Briere-2 and Lactin-2 thermal models. Results showed that r was 0.0387 day-1 at 20 ℃ and increased to 0.0899 day-1 at 22.5, almost 2.3 folds higher. However, it was 0.1120 day-1 at 25 ℃ which only elevated 1.3 folds compared to that at 22.5 ℃. Nevertheless, the intrinsic rate of population increase of H. hebetor reached to its maximum value at 27.5 ℃ (0.2001 day-1), though, it decreased about 7.5 and 10% at 30 and 32.5 ℃, respectively. Thermal modelling proved that calculated values of r were almost identical to estimated ones only at low temperatures (20 and 22.5 ℃). In contrast, both models estimated H. hebetor intrinsic rate of population increase significantly lower compared with calculated ones at higher temperatures. Despite what was observed by calculations, Briere-2 and Lactin-2 models recorded the maximum r at 30 ℃ to be 0.1918 and 0.1922 day-1, respectively. It is recommended to consider insects&rsquo; life parameters estimations of thermal models along with real values. Manuscript profile

        Wheat as the most important crop in Kurdistan province has several pests including aphids. The coccinellids have a fundamental role in controlling aphids. In this research, cereal aphid species and their coccinellid predators were identified and the efficiency and population dynamics of the most abundant species of coccinellids were studied during 2001-2003. Three irrigated wheat fields in Dehgolan and Kamyaran, and one rain fed field in Marivan were selected. Samples were taken weekly and the aphid species were counted in laboratory and the occurrence frequency of each species was recorded. Adult coccinellids were collected by random sweep netting and their relative occurrence was recorded. As results, 7 aphid species were identified which Sitobion avenae F. and Schizaphis graminum Rond. with respectively 66.5 and 30%, have the highest population densities. Also 6 coccinellid species were identified which Hippodamia variegata Goeze and Coccinella septempunctata L. with respectively 60 and 37%, have the highest population densities. Results showed that H. variegata as the most abundant coccinellid species in wheat fields was not able to control the aphids significantly (under this experimental condition) due to very fast reproduction of aphids and in absence of other natural enemies. Therefore, cereal aphids can be controlled by the presence and activities of their natural enemies complex. Manuscript profile

        Carmine spider mite, Tetranychus cinnabarinus Boisduval, is an important pest of ornamental plants such as roses in the world. In this research, population changes and the growth parameters of T. cinnabarinus reared on three rose cultivars (Magic Red, Polar Star, Dolce vita) at different amount of nitrogen fertilization (0, 50 and 100 Kg ha-1) were evaluated at 27&plusmn;2&deg;C, 70&plusmn;5% RH and 16: 8 h (L: D) photoperiod. The highest and lowest abundance of mites were observed at levels of 100 and 0 (control) Kg ha-1 nitrogen. In all levels of nitrogen, the density of pest were the highest (79.25) on the Magic Red and lowest on the Dolce Vita variety. Also results showed that on all varieties, the 100 Kg ha-1 nitrogen provided the highest intrinsic rate of increase (rm), finite rate of increase (&lambda;) and net reproductive rate of (R0). By increasing the rate of fertilizer, the doubling time of population (DT) decreased and the mite completed its generation in the shortest time (T). This study revealed that the use of high levels of nitrogen can considerably increase population and reproductive rate of carmine spider mite in rose greenhouse. Manuscript profile

        Cottony camellia scale, Pulvinaria floccifera Westwood is almost cosmopolitan having been spread widely by the plant trade. This soft scale is one of the most important scales of citrus orchards in Mazandaran and Guilan provinces. The biology and seasonal fluctuation of pest was studied in natural conditions in the West of Mazandaran. Furthermore, the biology of this soft scale was studied in laboratory condition. To study population dynamics, 10 leaves from each five Thomson navel orange trees, Citrus sinensis L. were taken every two weeks. P. floccifera completed one generation per year, hibernating as an adult insect. The last overwintering females were observed in early June and Middle May in 2009 and 2010, respectively. First instar nymphs appeared in middle July and late June. Second instar nymphs were first observed in early August and middle July, peaked in last August and last July in 2009 and 2010, respectively, whereas the third instar nymphs peaked in late September and late August. The complete life cycle of females required 58.2&plusmn;2.1 days in the laboratory conditions, 25&plusmn;10&ordm;C, 70-80% RH, and 14:10 (L:D). Number of eggs in egg sac ranged from 445 to 680. Data showed that the ladybirds Cryptolaemus montrouzieri Mulsant and Chilocorus bipustulatus Gordon feed on P. floccifera.

        One of the main problems of pine trees in the Chitgar park located in Tehran, Iran, is pine bark beetles, which not only cause direct harms to these trees but also is vector of some viral&nbsp; and bacterial pathogens. To study the seasonal population fluctuations of the pest, the sampling process of adults from pine barks was performed in different regions of the park in 2015 to 2017. Twelve infected centers in the park were selected and four cross trap were installed in each center. The mass capturing pheromone of Orthotomicus erosus and pine kairomone dispensers were used in each trap. The distance between traps was about 50 meters. According to the observed data, the emergence of adult beetles was started in early April and continued until mid-December. The average daily capture per trap was four beetles. From mid-December onwards, no beetles were caught in the traps. Mediteranean pine bark beetle had at least six flight peaks in the area of study. The most trapping were observed in 8 June, 28 June, 27 July, 16 August, 5 September and 25 September respectively. The The highest number of trap catches was registered in September, July, August, June, September and October, with 9.2, 7.7, 7.2, 5.7, 2.4 and 1.6 beetles per trap respectively. Also, the mean average of total capture during spring, summer, autumn and winter were 401, 1159,114 and zero beetles per trap; so, the most activity of the pest was observed in summer, spring and autumn respectively The highest number of beetle was in the north and the least was captured in the south of the park.

        The effect of four dose of Boron (0, 1, 1/5. 2 ppm) on the growth parameters of Tetranychus urticae Koch was studied on the red Akhtar bean cultivar under constant laboratory conditions (27&plusmn;2&ordm;C, 70&plusmn;5%RH and 16L:8D) during 2014&ndash;2016. Results showed that the immature developmental times of males and females were significantly influenced by Boron. Tetranychus urticae laid significantly more eggs per day on control. The egg hatching percentage varied from88.25 to 94.20 percent. The minimum intrinsic rate of increase (rm) 0.210&plusmn;0.01 (female/female/day), while the highest was recorded for 2 ppm tests 0.73&plusmn;0.2 (female/female/day). The lowest net reproductive rate of female (R0) was observed in 2 ppm dose (4.2.&plusmn;2/04) while thehighest was in control treatment (12.10&plusmn;0.06) (female/female/generation). The lowest intrinsic rate of increase (&lambda;) (0.93&plusmn;1.02) was obtained in 2 ppm treatments, whenever 0 ppm treatment displayed the highest values of these parameters (1.230&plusmn;1.40). The mean generation time varied from 15.2&plusmn;0.24 day to 11.65&plusmn;0.5 days. Doubling time (DT) varied significantly on different tests. The longest was in 2 ppm and the shortest was in control treatment. Therefore, the results have proved that 2 ppm sample has excellent potential for applying in Integrated Pest Management of Tetranychus urticae. Manuscript profile

        Evaluation and reform of pension systems are among the complex issues that due to the multiplicity of variables affecting each other and significant changes in the variables in the long term horizons, they can not be easily studied and analyzed. The purpose of this article is to study and analyze demographic variables on the support ratio(Ratio of insured to pensioners ) in Iran&rsquo;s Social Security Pension Fund. This shows to some extent the ratio of input to output of the fund, and based on it, the pressure on the fund can be estimated according to the amount of current insurance premiums and pension amounts. In this article, using information and statistics of mentioned fund and Iran Statistics Center in the years from 2016 to 2018, a model based on system dynamics was designed and By testing the model under certain conditions, reproducing past behavior and examining different policies, the model was validated. By 2033, the country's elderly population will double, while the working age population will grow by nearly 12 percent. These changes will affect the demographic structure, Also, according to the forecast, if the current conditions are maintained, the support ratio of the Social Security Fund will reach 2.19 by 2033. Informal (non-salaried) job participation, unemployed youth employment, women's economic participation and fertility rate are the most important influential population variables that can increase the support ratio to 3, 1/2, 1/4 0/5 units respectively ،if appropriate policies and planning are implemented.

        The inquiry about labor market evaluation in provinces of the country shows that Yazd is one of the provinces that have been faced with the more increasing unemployment rate in the recent years; as the unemployment rate in this province has increased from 5.2% in 1375 to 9.4% in 1389. In this research, we intend to identify the major effective factors on employment development by designing the Yazd province employment model. We also intend to anticipate the future of the province employment with regard to the reciprocal relations of the factors and with attention to various environmental and demographic circumstances. The implementation of this model offers several scenarios in employment development on the basis of system dynamics principles; that can help the major decision makers choose the appropriate policies. The mentioned model is designed on the basis of system dynamics methods. For this reason, the Yazd province employment development was simulated by &ldquo;Vensim PLE&rdquo; software concerning the public and private sectors. A period of 30 years from 1385 to 1415 was selected for implementation and test validity of the model. In the end, after explaining the conceived situation for the future of the province employment, with presenting results of the model, a number of suggestions will be given to help choose the appropriate policies in taking future opportunities and increasing the management power against future threats.&nbsp;&nbsp; Manuscript profile

        The Vehicle Routing Problem (VRP) is one of the most important combinational optimization problems that is received much attention because of wide applications in routing problems. In this problem, fleet vehicles with Q capacity start to move from the depot and return after servicing to customers in which visit only ones each customer and load more than its capacity not at all. The objective is to minimize the number of used vehicles and total distance traversed. This paper proposes a hybrid tabu search for the VRP. In this algorithm, three types of neighborhood moves including insert, swap and ant colony system are used for searching the neighborhood and moving from current solution to next solution. Computational experience with the benchmark test instances involving from 50 to 199 confirms that proposed algorithm is competitive in compared to the famous meta-heuristic algorithms in terms of the quality of generated solutions. In addition, this algorithm finds closely the best-known solutions (BKS) for most of the instances in which three best-known solutions are also found &nbsp; Manuscript profile

        In regional planning, the urban system is defined as the distribution and distribution of cities in the context of the geographical space. Cities are not of the same size and shape in accordance with their location and ability to expand, and in relation to the different roles they play, they affect the villages and surrounding areas, sometimes Cities are distributed in a dense form and sometimes in a scattered form, which is more affected by the physical and geographical factors of the region. For this reason, it is necessary to carefully study the function and role of cities and the position of each one in relation to the provincial and regional network hierarchies in research studies. The purpose of this research is to analyze the hierarchical system in the regional development of East Azerbaijan province. The research method is applied in terms of purpose and of analytical design type, which was carried out with field and library method based on models of demographic and hierarchical changes. The findings of the research show that in the balanced urban system, each urban point provides a set of specific services based on its location and role and receives some of the services it needs from the upstream urban points. In East Azarbaijan Province, according to the studies, the service delivery and service receiving system is based on the hierarchy of the urban network of the province, and the cities with superior roles and performance play major roles in this system. The results of the research show that the trend of urban population changes in the province with the changes of the total population indicates a very rapid increase in urbanization in the decades 1966-1976 and 1976-1986, which respectively, their urbanization growth rates were equal to 3.58 and 5.12. In the following decades, with the implementation of population control policies and the reduction of births and the relative control of urban and rural migrations, this rate increased to 1.99% in 1975 and 1.57% in 1985, and finally, according to the results of the 2021 census, to It has reached 1.72.

Non-gas injection packaging as a control sample were compared with four type of modified atmosphere packaging (70% CO2 + 30% N2) , (30% CO2 + 70% N2) , (47.5% N2 + 47.5% + 5% O2) and under vacuum. For packing samples were used different flexible multi-layer films, 3-layer{PET(12)/ AL(12)/LLD (100)},4-layer {PET(12)/AL(7) /PET(12)/LLD (100) } , and 3-layer { PET(12)/ AL(7)/LLD (100)}. Experiments were performed on samples as follows microbial test (aerobics count; mold and yeast count ; coliform count and chemical pH test, at different times 5,10 15,20 (during twenty days). The results were performed in a completely randomized design by SPSS (Ver:22) and Duncan&rsquo;s new multiple range test, with confidence level of 95% (P &lt;0.05). Using MAP was not enough to control spoilage, but it was delayed the spoilage process. Therefore, the using of packaging with 4-layers as a low water vapor transmition and gas composition (70% CO2 + 30% N2) as a high antimicrobial properties were used to maintain the long-term of Liquvan cheese during twenty days and have a good effect on the amount of pH was better.

        OBJECTIVE :The present study investigates principals&rsquo; emotional intelligence in different educational stages and its relationship with their demographic characteristics. It was hypothesized that emotional control and emotional management would positively relate to personnel performance. METHOD: This research is done by descriptive research. In this research , the sample included 140 principals (69men and 71 women) from region one of Ministry of Education and Training in Sari that were selected by using stratified random sampling. Subjects provided information about their EI and their demographic characteristics by completing the Travis Bradbery and Jean Geaves' Emotional Intelligence questionnaire and researcher made questionnaire. RESULTS :1-There were no differences in Principal's emotional intelligence in different stages(F=0/774,P&gt;./.5).2-There were no differences in Principal's emotional intelligence with different managerial experiences(F=1/305,P&gt;./.5).3-There were differences in Principal's emotional intelligence with respect to their gender(men and women) (t=2/285,P&lt;./.5).4-There were differences in Principal's emotional intelligence with respect to their specialty(t=3/148,P&lt;./.5)..5-There were no differences in Principal's emotional intelligence with different education(F=0/185,P&lt;./.5).6-There were no differences in Principal's emotional intelligence with different ages(F=0/347,P&gt;./.5). CONCLUSION :Emotional intelligence is a significant predictor of successful school administration. Specifically, the results of the present study suggest that professional development programs would be wise to focus on promoting or developing EI. Consistent with previous research, women were found to score higher than men on EI Manuscript profile

        Conspicuous consumption is a fairly universal phenomenon: while possibly more pervasive in developed countries. It can be said, conspicuous consumption is more common in some cultures that have a tendency to materialism. This research provides deeper understanding of why consumers are willing to buy luxury cars. The population of this study consists of Toyota, Hyundai &amp; Kia Motors automobile owners in the city of Tehran. The German made Mercedes Benz and the Japanese made Lexus are the luxury products of the population. The final sample consists of 390 participants, and the method is proportional stratified sampling. Structural Equation Modeling (SEM), and SPSS and LISREL software are used for the data analysis. The main findings show that the Iranian consumer perception of the luxury brand is significantly more affected by the variables of hedonism, uniqueness, and quality than the conspicuous and social values. Marketing managers of luxury brands can use the results to get more consumers to buy. The five perceived values of luxury automobiles can be used as guidelines for salesmen to sell successfully to customers. Manuscript profile

        In order to study the effect of plant density, planting pattern and herbicide dosage of nicosulfuron, a field experiment was arranged in a factorial split plot treatments based on RCBD with three replications in Chenaran, Khorasan Razavi, in 2010. The experimental treatments consisted of a factorial plant density (100000, 120000 and 140000 plants ha-1) in the planting pattern (single and double row) as main plot and herbicide dosage of nicousulforon in four levels (0, 1, 1/5 and 2, l.ha-1) as sub-plot. Samplings were made at in five stages (37days after the emergence of corn and it was repeated once per 20 days). The results indicated reducing the weed density and dry matter of weeds in the first stage after the herbicide treatment. Moreover, it was observed a significant interaction effect between plant density with planting pattern and between planting pattern with herbicides dosages during growth season on reducing weed density and dry matter. Also results indicated that in between of this experiment's treatments, nicosulfuron herbicide reduced weed density at the beginning of growth season and double row planting pattern suppressed weed density during growing season, and resulted in lowest Jacard similarity index (Sj) of weed species. Results also indicated that with increasing of plant density and herbicide dosage especially in composition of double row planting pattern, according to Shannon- Wiener index, sensitive population such as common purslane (Portulaca oleracea L.), buckhorn plantain (Plantago lanceolata L.), prostrate knotweed (Polygonum aviculareL.), black nightshade (Solanum nigrum L.) and Johnson grass (Sorghum halepens L.) was reduced in during growing season. Simpson dominance index, showed that some low populated weeds such as redroot pigweed (Amaranthus retroflexus L.), common lambsquarters (Chenopodium album L.), field bindweed (Convolvulus arvensis L.) and Canada thistle (Circum arvensis L.) persisted their growth up to the end of growing season.

        This study was performed to assess potato hybrids for their promising agronomic, and marketability traits and their adaptability to climatic conditions of potato production areas in country. Some 104 potato hybrids selected during five years (2010-2014) along with Savalan, Ceaser, Agria and Khavaran cultivars, as controls, were compared in an augment design (preliminary experiment) without replications both at the Agricultural and Natural Resources Research Station of Ardabil and Seed and Plant Institute Improvement of Karaj. These hybrids (104), tested in this experiment, were from 8 breeding populations. One half of the hybrids (52) in Ardabil and the other half (52) in Karaj (a total of 104 hybrids) each were planted in the 4 blocks and each block consisted of 13 hybrids with four control (Agria, Khavaran, Ceaser and Savalan cultivars). During growing period and after harvest the traits like: plant height, main stem number per plant, main stem diameter, tuber number and weight per plant, marketable tuber yield and tuber dry matter percent were measured. Then 81 hybrids were selected as superior hybrids as to their marketable tuber yield and tuber dry matter content. Hybrids selected consisted of 17 hybrids from ♂ Satina &times; ♀ Luca population, 36 hybrids from ♂ Ceaser &times; ♀ Luca population, 14 hybrids from ♂ Savalan &times; ♀ Luca population, 7 hybrids from ♂ Savalan &times; ♀ Ceaser population, 4 hybrids from ♂ Ceaser &times; ♀ Savalan population, 1 hybrids from ♂ Satina &times; ♀ Savalan population and 2 hybrids from ♂ Satina &times; ♀ Savalan population. Cluster analysis divided 104 hybrids and cultivars into three groups. The first group with 49 hybrids had higher average tuber number per plant, marketable tuber yield and tuber dry matter percent than the remaining hybrids. In factor analysis, three independent factor total explained 73.90% of the variations. These were named as, 1- tuber yield and its components factor (marketable tuber yield, tuber number and weight per plant), 2- the plant structures factor (plant height, number of main stems per plant and main stem diameter) and 3- quality factor (tuber dry matter percent).

        To create genetic variations in potato during four years of study (2007-11) and use than in breeding programs, some 105 hybrids were selected from cresses of Agria, Savalan, Boren, Kennebek and Ceaser cultivars as hybrids parents, and planted in augmented design at the Agricultural and Natural Resources Research Station of Ardabil during 2010-2011. The marketable tuber yields produced by the parents and hybrids were 42-52 t.ha-1 and 10.4-138.8 t.ha-1, respectively. The marketable tuber yields of hybrids exhibited 23.81% over dominance, 52.38% incomplete dominance, 13.33% reduction dominance and 10.48% interval dominance. Almost 24% of all hybrids selected produced higher marketable tuber yield than their parents. Heterosis for marketable tuber yield was found to be 58%. Based on the traits considered like marketable tuber yield, tuber uniformity, shallow eye depth, short stolon and yellow flesh and skin color, heterosis and dominancedegrees some 28 hybrids were selected. Among hybrids selected, 14 belonged to ♂Ceaser &times; ♀Savalan cross (021, 022, 023, 025, 026, 049, 057, 081, 087, 088, 095, 098, 0104 and 0105), four to ♂Savalan &times; ♀Agria cross (0500, 0502, 0503 0508), five to ♂Ceaser &times; ♀Agria cross (0611, 0613, 0616, 0618 and 0623) with early to mid-early maturity group, one to ♂Boren &times; ♀Savalan cross (0205), two to ♂Savalan &times; ♀Ceaser cross (0300 and 0303) and two to ♂Ceaser &times; ♀Kennebek cross (0401 and 0403) with mid-late maturity group.

        Chickpea (Cicer arietinum L.) is commonly grown under dryland conditions during spring on soils that conserve moisture from the preceding season, in Iran. Seeding rate can have a major impact on production of chickpea. A field trial was carried out at Gerizeh Agricultural Research Station of Kurdistan (35&deg;16&rsquo;N 47&deg;1&rsquo;E), west of Iran during 2015-16 cropping season. The trial was carried out in a factorial experiment based on randomized complete block design (RCBD) with three replications. The factor "A" was plant densities, consisting of 15, 25, 35, and 45 plants m-2 and factor "B" was chickpea varieties (Kaka, Pirouz, ILC 482, and Samin). The effect of chickpea varieties and interaction between plant densities and varieties were significant on all measured parameters, except on number of seed per pod, plant height and height of first pod. Also, the effects of plant densities on seed yield, 100 seed weight, leaf chlorophyll index, protein content, plant height, and number of branch per plant were also significant. Results showed that an increase in plant density resulted in significantly higher seed yield per hectare. The mean yields indicated the sensitivity of "Samin" cultivar to high plant population, while it was, suitabilie to cultivar "ILC482" (45 plants m2). "Kaka" and "Pirouz" produce near optimum yields at medium plant densities (25 and 35 plants m-2). Mean yield comparison of cultivar &times; palnt density showed that cultivars "Pirouz", "ILC482" and "Samin" did not differ significantly in protein content but "Kaka" significantly produced higher protein content the three cultivars. Correlation coefficient for seed yield, number of pods/plant, seed weight, number of branch/ plant and plant height were positive and significant, while for seed yield, and height of first pod were negative and significant. According to the results of the this study Samin, with its large seed size and other desirable characteristics and plant population of 35 plants m-2 can be recommended for planting in Sanandaj and similar climatic areas.

        The current research was conducted with the aim of finding the reasons for low population growth in Lorestan province. The interactive theory of the population as a theoretical approach is the template in the present research.Method: The research method is qualitative and Delphi type. The statistical population of the research is all media experts, psychology, sociology, demography and religious experts of Lorestan province. Out of this number, 20 people were selected in a targeted manner. A semi-structured interview technique was used to collect information. The duration of the interviews was 30 minutes and their analysis was done using the Claysey method.Findings: Negative individualism, the prevalence of western modernity based on consumption and diversity, women's identity changes, housing problems, marriage problems, youth migration, unemployment, education, the spread of divorce, changing attitudes towards marriage, the spread of virtual media, lack of security. Job, economic weakness, high cost of children, value changes, multiple children as a bad thing, attitude towards children as a luxury item, lack of trust, uncertainty in the future of the country, lack of openness of planners, lack of scientific and theoretical research and the importance of climatic conditions. One of the reasons for population decline in Lorestan province is that they are classified in the form of economic factors in the first place, cultural and social factors, environmental and climatic factors. The current situation can be explained in terms of youth marriage and birth control.Results: In general, it can be concluded that if social and economic platforms and facilitators are realized in the field of changing the society's attitude towards childbearing, with the help of the media in line with macro policies, the problem of decreasing the population of the province can be solved to some extent.

        Economic sociology studies the main economic issues of markets, enterprises, industrial centers to production, consumption and distribution. The focus of the new economic sociology is on the role of relationships and institutions and social construction in the economy. Population is considered as one of the important and key factors in the process of economic growth and development of countries. In addition to population growth, the age structure of the population also has important and decisive effects on economic growth by changing the share of the population in the working age. In this paper, the effect of population growth on economic growth with emphasis on the population structure of Iran during the period 1965-2014 has been studied using Markov-switching vector autoregression method. Estimates were made for the three age groups of 0-15 years, 15-64 years and over 64 years in 3 situations (before the war, during the war and the order to increase the population, the period after the war and the order to reduce the population). The results showed that the population group of 0-15 years had no effect on economic growth in any situation, the population group of 15-64 years and above 64 years and population growth on economic growth in position 1 and 3 had a positive effect on economic growth and In situation 2 (period of population growth and due to rising unemployment) have had a negative effect on economic growth. According to the results, the right population policies should be implemented to support and help economic growth and prevent inconsistencies and imbalances in various economic sectors.

        Iran as a transferring country from aging and developing points of view has quick fertility decline in recent years. Fertility relates to human&rsquo;s biologic and social conditions. The aim of this study is the recognition of social factors related to tendency to fertility. Using survey, data are obtained from 460 married women 15 to 50 years in Tabriz with multi-stage cluster sampling.&nbsp; The results show religious belief is one of the most important factors in women&rsquo;s tendency to fertility. As shown in the results of multi-stage regression, the major part of tendency to fertility is religious belief (21%) and in total, 30%of tendency to fertility is determined by religious belief, ideal child, social capital, and residence period in Tabriz and social status. The obtained data show that women age has maximum effect on fertility and social status has the minimum effect on it. Finally it can be concluded that Bongart, Noshtein, Rang and Beaker&rsquo; s theories and also social status theories , religious beliefs and social capital are appropriate in determining the relationship between social factors and tendency to fertility.

        AbstractIn this study, the effect of chemical and microbial fertilizers on the density of primary products and biodiversity indices of phytoplankton and zooplankton biodiversity categories over a period of three months in a hydrothermal fish farm located in Abadan city were studied and compared. The experiment was completely randomized, consisting of two treatments, each with three replications, including the first treatment: water&rsquo;s pond fertilized by chemical fertilizers and cow manure, and the second treatment: water&rsquo;s pond fertilized by microbial fertilizers and cow manure. In this study, different types of phosphate fertilizers at the rate of 75 kg per hectare and microbial fertilizers including two nitrogen bacteria,&nbsp;Azotobacter chroococcum, and&nbsp;Bacillus coagulans were used. The results of this study showed that the mean of phytoplankton counted in the first treatment (chemical fertilizer) was significantly higher than their number in the second treatment (microbial fertilizer) (P&lt;0.05). Among them, most of the counted phytoplankton belonged to the&nbsp;Bacillariophyceae&nbsp;class in chemical fertilizer treatment. However, the mean of zooplankton counted in the second treatment (microbial fertilizer) indicated a higher number of zooplankton compared to the first treatment (chemical fertilizer) (P&lt;0.05). Among them, most of the counted zooplankton belonged to the Rotifer class in microbial treatment. In conclusion, due to the zooplankton being eaten by most carp juveniles in hydrothermal ponds in the first year of breeding and a significant increase in zooplankton population in microbial fertilizer treatment compared to chemical fertilizer, it can be concluded that microbial fertilizers have a positive effect on the number of zooplankton in hydrothermal pools.

        &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; In this study genetic diversity of Cobia, Rachycentron canadum populations were assessed using microsatellite technique in the northern coasts of Persian Gulf (Booshehr, Dayer Port, Lengeh Port &amp; Bandarabass) and Oman Sea (Pozm &amp; Beris of Chabahar). Polymerase chain reactions (PCR) were conducted on the target DNA using 10 paired microsatellite primers. PCR products were electrophoresed on polyacrylamid gels (8%) that were stained using silver nitrate. Diagram of genetic distance was calculated using the UPGMA method in TFPGA version 1.3 for any level of the hierarchy. The results showed that the mean of observed and effective allele number was 12.357 and 8.319 respectively. Mean observed and expected heterozygosity was 0.655 and 0.874 respectively. Based on Analysis of Molecular Variance (AMOVA) the highest Fst (0.063) was observed when comparing specimens from Dayer Port zone and Pozm of Chabahar zone (Nm=3.7). The highest genetic distance (0.815) was observed between specimens from Dayer Port zone and Beris of Chabahar zone. The result obtained from the present study shows that at least 3 different population of R. canadum are found in the northern coasts of Persian Gulf and Oman Sea, which are including: Booshehr region population, Bandarabass region population, and Chabahar region population. Specific markers were also identified for of the Booshehr zone population identified. The Booshehr population zone can be identified using primers Rca 1B-E08A, Rca 1B-F07, Rca 1B-H09 and Rca 1-A04.

        AbstractGenetic structure of golden mullet, Liza aurata, was investigated in the Ramsar and Fereidunkenar shores using 6 microsatellite markers designed for gray mullet (Mugil cephalus) and hand mullet (Mugil soiuy). Totally, 60 samples of adult golden mullet were collected from these regions. All primer sets as polymorphic loci were used to analyze the genetic variation. Analyses revealed that average of alleles (Na) per locus was 6.2 (range 3 to 9 alleles). All sampled regions contained private alleles. The average estimates of inbreeding coefficient (Fis) values of 6 microsatellites were positive. The average observed and expected heterozygosis was 0.394 and 0.743 respectively. Deviations from Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium were in all cases (P&lt;0.001). F-statistics (Fst) and gene flow (Nm) estimates in allele frequencies were 0.078 and 2.9, respectively. Rst and Fst estimates in AMOVA indicated significant genetic differentiation among regions (P&le;0.01). Genetic distance was 0.679, indicating that the genetic difference among the studied populations is pronounced. The data generated in this study provides the genetic variation and differentiation in populations of golden mullet in the southern Caspian Sea (Mazandaran province). Manuscript profile

        To give attention to importance of decrease or increase of human population at different aspects (scientific, cultural, social, political and economic) we try in this article to choose the best idea, to agree or disagree with birth control, to take into consideration of jurisprudences ideas and their basis. So we will analyze it, after explanation of four main ideas about population, in the opinion of Muslim jurisprudences that is conforming to each of them. Anyway, Islam never had ordered about increasing or decreasing population, explicitly and clearly, so the final strategy will he determined in respect to Islamic principles and doctrines and time and place necessities and social conditions. This important duty in this responsibility of Islamic ruler, that issues “The governor rule” to keep the public discipline, and orders new rules and occasional laws to regulate the social affairs, based on the interests and mischievous that determines, and reacts to special needs of time and place, while keeping the basis. It proves that Islam conforms to the theory of proportional population. Manuscript profile

        &nbsp; &nbsp;Pickle fermentation is a natural process in which microorganisms could affect the quality of the product. Amongst, Lactobacillus plantarum strains that improve the quality of fermented pickle. In this study, in order to produce safe and desirable fermented pickle, local cucumbers were immersed in 5% and 7% (w/v) brine solutions. The samples were inoculated with 0, 4 &acute;106, 4 &acute;107 and 6 &acute;108 cfu/ml of L. plantarum. The samples were kept at ambient temperature for 15 days followed by 30 days storage at 4 &deg;C and 25 &deg;C. The bacterial populations were analyzed during the aforementioned stages of fermentation and storage. According to the results, the maximum quantity (8.57 log10 cfu/ml) of L. plantarum was observed in the 9 day of fermentation and in the samples inoculated with 6 &acute;108 cfu/ml and kept in 5% brine solution. Moreover, compared to the other samples, the population of yeasts and aerobic mesophilic count were the least in the samples inoculated with 6 &acute;108 cfu/ml of L. plantarum and stored in 7% brine solution. During the storage period, the population of L. plantarum, yeasts and aerobic mesophilic in the samples stored at 25 &deg;C were higher than the samples stored at 4 &deg;C. Results revealed that in the 30 day of storage, the highest load (5.47 log10 cfu/ml) of L. plantarum was observed in the samples kept in 7% brine solution at 4 &deg;C. It was concluded that providing the condition that favors the appropriate growth of L. plantarum could help to hinder the growth of undesirable organisms in fermented pickle.&nbsp; Manuscript profile

        Cocidiosis causes annual economic losses in industrial poultry farms and nutritional strategies can alleviate these losses. The present study was conducted to evaluate the effects of different levels of arginine on cecum microbial population and serum antioxidant properties of healthy and Eimeria-challenged broiler chicks. Experimental treatments included healthy and challenged broiler chicks fed with 85, 100, 125 and 150% of the recommended arginine. To conduct bacterial culture, samples were collected aseptically from cecum during slaughter (on days 21 and 42). The levels of antioxidant and oxidant factors and nitric oxide were also assessed in the serum of broiler chicks. The chicks which had received 125 and 150% of arginine showed lower E. coli population and higher population of lactobacillus, total bacteria, bifidiobacteria and pH in the cecum (p &lt; /em&gt;&lt;0.05), but entrococous population was not influenced (p &lt; /em&gt;&gt;0.05). Eimeria challenge decreased the level of glutathione peroxidase, super oxide dismutase, and total antioxidant capacity and increased the levels of malondialdehyde (p &lt; /em&gt;&lt;0.05), but inclusion of arginine in the levels of 125 and 150% only increased the level of glutathione peroxidase (p &lt; /em&gt;&lt;0.05), and did not have any effect on other parameters (p &lt; /em&gt;&lt;0.05). In summary, consumption of arginine in higher levels (125 and 150%) decreased the pathogenic population and increased the beneficial bacteria and the level of glutathione peroxidase in Eimeria-challenged broiler chicks.

        In this study, the issue of educational inequalities is investigated in different educational areas through a case study at Dehloran`s elementary schools. The present study is a documentary study; the demographic data required for this study has been acquired by statistical data from the recent census of population and Housing as well as information regarding education (students, teachers and educational buildings) using the statistics provided by Dehloran education office. Then, the statistics were classified and adjusted in the researcher made information. To compare and rank the amount to which different areas and regions (rural or urban) benefit from elementary education, indicators and formulas for educational planning such as the index of region selection, Gini coefficient, Lorenz curve, and benefit levels chart were used. Moreover, in order to determine the educational inequalities, the data was analyzed using enrollment fees and the actual educational coverage, the ratio of students to teachers, utilization coefficient of educational spaces, and rates of the educational efficiency. The results of this study indicate that there is not a proper balance among different regions and areas (weather urban or rural) of Dehloran in terms of benefited educational opportunities. In terms of enrollment fees and educational coverage as well as access to elementary school teachers, urban areas as compared with rural areas and boys as compared with girls are at a higher level. Urban areas have more access to educational spaces compared to rural areas. As for the rates of educational efficiency, girls and urban areas are superior to boys and rural areas, respectively.&nbsp; Manuscript profile

        In today's era, due to the increasing increase in urban population and the lack of enough empty land for construction, it has caused the vertical development of cities and high-rise construction in Iran. In addition to its positive effects, the tendency to build high-rise buildings in the big cities of Iran has had harmful effects and consequences in different dimensions, especially in the social dimension. In this regard, the aim of the current research is to investigate the effects and social consequences of the increase in high-rise construction in Tabriz metropolis. The research method in the current study is applied in terms of purpose and in terms of descriptive-analytical nature, in order to analyze the information were used partial least squares method in Warp-pls software and F test or analysis of variance. The statistical population of the research includes the citizens of the 1st, 2nd and 5th regions of Tabriz, that is, the residents of Aftab Towers in Valiasr (region 1), Asman Towers in El Goli (region 2) and Mehr Towers in Roshdieh town (region 5), which is in line with determining the sample size. Cochran's method was used and the sample size was determined to be 384 people. The findings of the research show that the most important social consequences of high-rise development in Tabriz metropolis are related to the components of disruption in social interactions, reduced sense of belonging to a place, disruption in socialization, reduction in mental health and disruption in privacy, which the coefficients obtained from the structural model are 0.651, 0.574, 0.433, 0.411 and 0.383 for each. Also, among the sub-components, the highest impact of high-rise development is related to the reduction of social connections with friends and neighbors, reduction of place identity and sense of place belonging, and lack of formation of participation and social trust between residents. The predictive power of the designed model is analyzed using the coefficient value for the dependent variables, values greater than or equal to 0.1 have been specified for the determination coefficient. Therefore, it was concluded that the structural model of the current research has sufficient power. In this model, 13.4% of the variance of the variables of social effects and consequences of high-ranking is justified by the variables entering it. Based on the Stone-Geyser test, because the values ​​of the Geyser test are calculated to be higher than zero, it shows that the considered model has the necessary capacity and predictive power.Also, the comparative analysis of the studied towers based on the analysis of variance method shows that there is no significant difference between the social consequences caused by high-rise construction between these towers. Variance analysis test is used to measure the difference between the average of a variable in more than two groups (3 groups and more). According to the amount of F statistic with 22.321 and a significance level of less than 95%, the obtained results indicate that there is no significant difference between the selected indicators in the current research between the towers under study.

        The disorder of the distribution system of service centers in urban spaces has paved the way for social inequality of citizens in accessing these services. Therefore, paying attention to services and how to distribute them in cities is a basic principle in the direction of sustainable development of cities and the basis of spatial justice. The aim of this research is spatial analysis of urban services in ten areas of Tabriz metropolis. For this purpose, the library method was used to collect information. The present study is descriptive-analytical in terms of purpose and applied in terms of results. To analyze and distribute urban services, 17 types of public services were used using quantitative models and also to determine the type of relationship between population and urban services, Pearson correlation test was used in Excel. The results showed that zones 2 and 3 have the best situation in terms of distribution of urban services and region 9 is in an unfavorable situation and has the least public services. The results also show a low correlation between municipal services and population. In general, the findings indicate that the distribution of services is not done properly and is more focused and polar. Therefore, suggestions were made to get out of this situation and achieve a balanced distribution of the city's public services. Manuscript profile

        In this study, 32 bird species from 17 families on the margin of Miangharan wetland were identified. The identification of birds carried out every month in a day from December 2017 to the end of June 2017 by walking along the edge of the Miangharan marsh with the camera and the telescope through direct observation and the total count method. A total of 1,643 birds was counted, with the highest number in February of 386, and the lowest number in June was 209 individuals, and the highest number of birds was 970 in the winter and the lowest population in the spring of 673 birds. The similarity coefficient between the community of terrestrial birds in winter and spring was 95.5% and Euclidean difference was 125.22. The highest evenness was observed in March (0.691) and the lowest evenness was in June (0.448). The most diversity of Margalf, Shannon, and Menhinink were in March, 926/4, 807/1 and 854/2 respectively. Diversity of Whitaker, Harrison and William were zero in between winter and spring bird communities. The t-test showed that there was no significant difference between population and the number of species in both spring and winter seasons with 95% confidence. These studies have shown that the Miangharan wetland, in addition to protecting and maintaining waterbirds in the winter, is also important for the conservation and provides habitats for terrestrial birds and should be considered in its management.

        In order to investigate the effect of different levels of plant density and irrigation on some morphologic and physiologic responses and antioxidants activities in chickpea cv. Hashem, an experiment was conducted at Goonbad-e-Kavoos region during 2012-2013 cropping season. Treatments were arranged as split plot in randomized complete block design with four replications. Different irrigation regime levels (rainfed without irrigation, irrigation at flowering stage, and irrigation during pod filling stage) were assigned to main plots and sub-plots comprised of different plant densities (20, 30, 50, and 70 plants/m2). Results showed that different irrigation regimes significantly affected traits except for days to 50% flowering and plant height but plant density factor had significant impacts only on days to 50% flowering, plant height, days to physiologic maturity, seed yield, biologic yield, and leaf chlorophyll index. Results showed that irrigation caused significant increase in leaf relative water content and leaf chlorophyll index while it decreased grain protein content, superoxide dismutase and catalase activities. Maximum and minimum grain protein contents were produced in no-irrigation and irrigation during pod filling stage, respectively. Meanwhile, the maximum and minimum grain yield was gained by irrigation at flowering stage and rainfed without irrigation, respectively. Under plant density levels, the maximum and minimum grain yield was produced in 70 plants/m2 and 20 plants/m2, respectively. Irrigation at flowering stage &times; 70 plants/m2 had the highest grain yield among all treatments of the study. &nbsp; Manuscript profile

        Association analysis of 105 bread wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) genotypes was carried out using 12 SSR markers. For this purpose, wheat seeds were planted in pots in a randomized complete block design with three replications under normal (10 mM NaCl) and saline (120 mM NaCl) conditions and the activity of catalase (CAT), ascorbate peroxidase (APX), and total protein contents were measured. The results of combined analysis of variance showed that the activity of catalase, ascorbate peroxidase, and total protein contents were significantly different in the bread wheat cultivars under study. The results of multiple regression analysis showed that gwm67b and gwm282d markers under salinity conditions were more correlated with catalase activity in the studied species. Also, gwm291a, wmc73a, and barc124a markers were the most effective markers in association with APX enzyme. Analysis of the population structure and the resulting plot showed that the K Index and the Average Likelihood Logarithm had the highest value at K =2 (57.38), thus the population under study has most probably 2 subpopulations. Tassel analysis of SSR markers under normal irrigation and salinity irrigation conditions obtained 54 loci related to the traits under study in control condition and 61 loci in salinity condition based on the general linear model (GLM) and also 35 related loci in control condition and 20 loci in salinity condition based on the mixed linear model (MLM) Manuscript profile

        Nepeta L., belongs to Lamiaceae family, is containing different annual and perennial species which are found in different parts of Asia, Europe and North Africa. In order to evaluate the morphological diversity, total phenolic content and antioxidant activity between 6 populations of Nepeta nuda and Nepeta crassifolia, the aerial parts of these plants in flowering stages were collected in summer 2015 from Ardabil and east Azerbaijan provinces. The morphological traits included plant height, number of sub-branches, leaf length and width, number of nodes, inflorescence length, internode length and length of sub-branch were measured. Methanolic extract were obtained by maceration, phenolic content by Folin-Ciocalto method and antioxidant activity were measurement DPPH radical scavenging capacity method, respectively.&nbsp; The experiment was performed in a completely randomized design with 3 replications and the comparison of data average was done by LSD test at 5% probability level. Results&nbsp; were showed that the first population (Nepetacrassifolia - Razi) was superior in morphological characteristics compared to other populations of this species. The highest antioxidant activity (74.96%)and total phenolic content (9.88mg of gallic acid equivalents per gram of fresh weight), was obtained from the leaves and flowers of population 3 (Heyran), respectively. Maximum plant height, leaf length and width, number of nodes were observed in population 6 (Meshkin) of Nepeta nuda and also the highest antioxidant activity and total phenolic content were perceived in leaves of population 5 (Heris) and flowers of population 4 (Meshkin-Heris), respectively. Generally the most total phenolic content and antioxidant activity between two species were observed in population 3 (Heyran) which is belong to the Nepeta crassifolia. It seems that the height of sea level had significant effect on populations phenolic content and antioxidant activity. So the populations of 1 and 6, which both species were desirable at evaluated morphological traits so that these populations can be considered in breeding and domestication programs.

        Glabridin is one of the most flavonoid compounds in Glycyrrhiza glabra L. root with biological activities such as antioxidant, antibacterial, anti-diabetic, antimicrobial, anti-cancer and neuroprotective properties. In this study, in order to investigate the content of glabridin and its relationship with soil and climatic factors, roots with a diameter of 2 cm from 17 populations of licorice were harvested from different regions of Iran in October 2018. and transferred to the Laboratory of Research Institute of Medicinal Plants and Raw Materials at Shahid Beheshti University for analysis. Extraction of the extract was performed using 80% methanol solvent and the content of glabridin was studied by HPLC. Glabridin content of different licorice populations varied from 0.41 (in Yasuj population) to 22.87 (in Kashmar population) mg / g dry weight. Significant positive correlation was observed between glabridin and phosphorus and soil lime content at 1% level. Glabridin content had a significant negative correlation with altitude of 5%. Based on the results of cluster analysis, 17 licorice populations were divided into three main groups. Evaluation of populations for glabridin showed a high diversity so that Kashmar, Ilam and Bojnurd populations can be used as superior populations for domestication and breeding and for food and pharmaceutical industries.

        Tanacetum pinnatum Boiss. is a perennial plant native to Iran belonging to the Asteraceae family. Which has been used to treat migraine, rheumatism and anti-inflammatory diseases. In this study, phytochemical charchterisic of different populations of T. pinnatum in natural habitats was evaluated by multivariate methods. First, the aerial parts of plant in blooming were collected from Tehran, Alborz, Hamedan and Kermanshah provinces in mid-June to mid-August 2016. The essential oils were extracted by hydro-distillation clevenger device and were analysed by using GC/MS. The results were showed that the effect of population on leaf and flower essential oil was significant (P&lt;0.01) which seems to be due to geographical factors and type of climate. According to the results, 50 compounds were identified in the flower and leaf essential oils of the populations, of which 13 compounds had the highest frequency among the populations and the highest percentage in the leaf and flower essential oils. Based on the principal component analysis and cluster analysis, populations 1, 2, 9, 3 and 5 had the highest composition of flower essential oil, while populations 4, 8 and 10 had the weakest values for most essential oil compounds. Populations 6, 7, 11 and 12 also had moderate amounts of compounds in flower essential oil. However, for leaf essential oil, populations 1, 2, 6, 3, 5 and 10 had the highest essential oil composition, while population 4 had the weakest values for most essential oil compounds and only had a high amount of cubenol. Populations 9, 12, 7, 8 and 11 also had moderate amounts of compounds in leaf essential oil. Population grouping based on their phytochemical assessment did not match their geographical distribution. However, areas with higher E, Z-geranyl acetate،&szlig;-eudesmol and cubenol levels in flowers and leaves had average annual rainfall and higher altitude, average sunshine, and lower annual temperatures (populations 4 and 1). While in areas where populations had higher levels of &alpha;-cadinene in flowers, they had the highest average relative humidity, the lowest rainfall and annual temperature. Population 1 had the highest amount of flower &szlig;-eudesmol and was one of the populations that showed a positive correlation between the amount of flower and leaf essential oil and essential oil components. As a result, the best population in the natural habitat was population 1. Manuscript profile

        European mistletoe (Viscum album L.) a semi-parasitic plant that often grows on forest trees and shrubs, is used in the treatment of various diseases such as cancer due to its valuable active ingredients. The quantity and quality of active ingredients in parasitic and semi-parasitic plants in addition to genetic and environmental factors, are also affected by the host tree. This study was conducted in a completely randomized design with the aim of investigating the phytochemical diversity of 20 populations of mistletoe on different hosts by collecting samples from different regions of Gilan, Mazandaran, Golestan, and Alborz provinces in the summer of 2017. The extracts were obtained by reflux method with 70% ethanol. The content of syringic acid, total flavonoids, phenolic compounds, protein, and antioxidant activity were measured by a spectrophotometer and HPLC methods in the leaves of plants in different populations. The results showed that the amount of chemical composition of mistletoe populations was affected by environmental conditions such as temperature, humidity, and altitude, and the type of host tree. These populations were classified into 3 distinct groups. The mistletoe collected from Gilan and Alborz provinces did not have much phytochemical diversity. Populations of Guilan province had the highest mean of total flavonoids, protein, and antioxidant activity. The mistletoe collected from Mazandaran and Golestan provinces had more phytochemical diversity. It seems that in addition to environmental conditions, the host tree type was also responsible for creating the phytochemical diversity of European mistletoe in these provinces. Manuscript profile

        The genus Lepidium from the family Brassicaceae has 16 species in Iran, and the most famous species is garden cress (L. sativum), which is used as a vegetable or medicinal plant. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the quality and quantity of seed essential oil of seven L. sativum populations collected from different climatic regions of Iran. Seeds of L. sativum populations were hydro-distillated by clevenger, and the chemical composition of the essential oils and their quantitative percentages were identified using gas chromatography-mass spectrometer (GC-MS). The main compounds of seed essential oil were monoterpenes 1,8-cineole (44.5%), &alpha;-terpinyl acetate (13.9%) and &alpha;-pinene (7.7%). The populations of Karaj, Kerman and Qazvin had the highest amounts of 1,8-cineole, &alpha;-terpinyl acetate and &alpha;-pinene, respectively. The results of cluster analysis based on the chemical composition of garden cress seed essential oil using the Nearest neighbor method showed that seven studied populations were divided into two groups, and this grouping did not match the geographical coordinates of the regions. The first group included the populations of Kerman, Qazvin, Shahriar and Tabriz, and the second group were the populations of Shiraz, Hamadan and Karaj, which had the highest amount of 1,8-cineole and the lowest amount of &alpha;-terpinyl acetate and 7,10-hexadecadienoic acid, methyl ester. According to the results of the bi-plot diagram of principle component analysis (PCA), Karaj population -which had the lowest values of the first and second components- was placed in a distinct group. No significant correlation was observed between the main compositions of the essential oil with the geographic coordinates and weather conditions of the collection sites. Manuscript profile

        This study was conducted to investigate the biochemical diversity and antioxidant properties of three accessions of Perovskia abrotanoides Kar. in eastern Alborz mountain range including Semnan and Mazandaran provinces. Flowering specimens were collected from three natural habitats of Damghan (station 1, 1504 m), Kordmir (station 2, 1672 m) and Shahrud (station 3, 1285 m) in July 2018. The amount of proline, protein, soluble sugars, phenolic compounds, hydrogen peroxide, potassium, copper, zinc, iron, nickel, magnesium, manganese and calcium as well as soil salinity were measured. Methanolic, dichloromethane, ethyl acetate and hexane extracts were extracted by soaking method and the antioxidant activity of the extracts was evaluated using the DPPH radical scavenging capacity. The experiment was conducted as a completely randomized design with 3 replications and the comparison of data means was performed using Duncan's test at a probability level of 5%. The results showed that the highest amount of proline and potassium was in station 1, the highest amount of protein, phenolic compounds, soil salinity and magnesium content were obtained from station 3 and the highest amount of iron was observed in station 2. Moreover, station 3 had the highest level of antioxidant activity in all extracts, and all stations had the lowest level of antioxidant activity in hexane extract. Dichloromethane extracts in stations 2 and 3 had the highest level of antioxidant activity, while in station 1 the highest level of antioxidant activity was found in methanolic extract. Therefore, we concluded that with increasing soil salinity, the phenolic content and antioxidant activity of the populations of P. abrotanoides increase. Manuscript profile

        Sesqui-terpene lactone - parthenolide in Tanacetum parthenium L. is known as the most important medicinal substance with anti-cancer, anti-inflammatory, anti-spasm and especially anti-migraine effects. In this study, the content of parthenolide in the flowering branches of some natural populations of T. parthenium L. from different habitats in Gilan (Masoleh), Mazandaran (Chalos), Qom (Vishnu) and Tehran (Ahar) provinces were collected at the full flowering stage and compared with their flowered seedlings under in vitro conditions. In vitro seedlings were seeded and cultured on Murashige and Skoog medium enriched with hydrolyzed casein (100 mg/l), salicylic acid (2 mg/l) and benzylaminopurine (5 mg/l). The parthenolide content of flowering branches of all samples was measured using high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC). The results of variance analysis of the data showed that the effect of population and cultivation conditions as well as their interaction at the probability level of 1% on parthenolide content was significant. The parthenolide content in self-grown populations ranged from 0.13&plusmn;0.007 to 1.03&plusmn;0.113 mg/g dry weight and in tissue culture seedlings from 0.23&plusmn;0.011 to 1.21&plusmn;0.148 mg/g dry weight was variable. The highest and lowest parthenolide content was observed in Qom (Vashno) and Gilan (Masuleh) populations, respectively. Parthenolide content for all populations was higher in tissue culture samples than in natural samples. The findings of this study can be considered and exploited for the commercial production of parthenolide pharmaceutical composition under controlled conditions. Manuscript profile

Based on data analysis and comparison between species and populations within each species, late lowering species such as A. linifolium and A. Stapfi had higher aerial and grain yield than early flowering species including dwarf alyssum (A. marginatum), desert Alyssum (A. desertorum), Araraty Alyssum (A.szowitsianum).The simple correlation between the studied traits showed that there was a positive correlation between plant height and &nbsp;aerial yield and grain yield. The rate of plant establishment was positively correlated with plant height and negatively correlated with the stems number. Result of principal component analysis (PCA) obtained three main components considering the eigenvalues greater than one that justified 90% of total variance. The results of cluster analysis led to the grouping populations into five groups. The species of A.stapfi, A. hirsutum and A.desertorum were placed in a one group. The studied populations provided a suitable genetic background for selecting superior populations with important traits from different clusters, so that they can be used in breeding improved varieties.

Of the ten regions of national and regional physical plans, two regions of the southern Alborz (Including the provinces of Tehran, Markazi, Semnan, Zanjan, Qazvin, Qom and Alborz) and Khorasan (Including the provinces of South Khorassan, Razvi Korasan and North Kohorasan) ,respectively, had the highest and lowest rates of change between the ten regions. In the follow-up analysis , indicators such as the first twenty positions in the years 1956 to 2011, the analysis of the actual population and population number of twenty cities Primary of the&nbsp; region in relation to the theoretical Zipf in 2011 and also the analysis of primacy city and decentralization city in the South Khorasan and Alborz, was completed separately. Finally, a comparison between Khorasan region and southern Alborz together and with physical national and regional regions determined that southern Alborz region despite its position among the ten regions was not affected by a change but the intra-regional changes are massive and large altered. Conversely, Khorasan region that on the variations between Regions has been a fundamental change, in the intra-regional variations was found in relative comfort. The study also revealed that due to the changes between regional, it cannot be possible to make an intra-regional analysis and predictions are imposssible. Manuscript profile

        In any type of geographic data analysis defining the primary unit has direct effect on the results. The key point in spatial studies is the exact definition of areal units. The necessity of defining the basic unit of study is that for instance if once we examine the relationship between income and crime rate in the neighborhood unit and again in the level of urban area, different results will be obtained. This problem originates from the fact that raw data (e.g. census) are shown in the census block format. So we have to aggregate this data into neighborhood units and urban areas or any other basic unit for our study. Since the choice of these basic units does not have any rule and is arbitrary, different results will be obtained. In fact results of statistical analysis are not independent of the scale at which analysis has been done. This problem was first identified by Gehlke and Biehlin as modifiable areal unit problem (MAUP).&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; The purpose of this study is to identify the basic areal units which make the least bias in raw data after data aggregation in the unit. We have applied a comparative research method and layers of census blocks are utilized for statistical analysis. In this article, we have selected three basic units based on urban network, urban locality and fishnet as well as using twenty demographic indicators and measures of central dispersion and correlation to examine the effect of MAUP.

        Population and its various dimensions have always been a concern for policymakers and experts. Natural population growth is the result of birth and death rates, while migration and mobility have a significant impact on the increase or decrease of demographic changes. Marginalization and the establishment of informal settlements, increasing land and housing prices, environmental degradation, indiscriminate use of groundwater, reduction of per capita green space, traffic and air pollution, urban waste generation and improper disposal, soil erosion, and industrial pollution are among the challenges and conflicts that arise from population growth and concentration in the country's metropolises. Based on the research methodology, this study follows a descriptive-analytical approach. According to the theoretical framework, all components were examined at the global and national levels with a focus on Iran, and the necessary information was collected to identify the strengths and weaknesses of the research. The ranking and prioritization model and Lorenz curve algorithm were used for screening and prioritization. First, the collected data were analyzed using Excel software and then transformed into numerical charts using the Lorenz curve. The research findings indicate that simultaneous with population growth and concentration in metropolises, development and progress have not occurred in parallel, and various differences and conflicts have emerged among different social classes and levels due to overcrowding, population movements, and development disparities in cities and metropolises.

        Researchers tendency to use different collective intelligence as the search methods to optimize complex engineering problems has increased because of the high performance of this algorithms. Gravitational search algorithm (GSA) is among these algorithms. This algorithm is inspired by Newton's laws of physics and gravitational attraction. Random masses are agents who have searched for the space. This paper presents a new Fuzzy Population GSA model called FPGSA. The proposed method is a combination of parametric fuzzy controller and gravitational search algorithm. The space being searched using this combined reasonable and accurate method. In the collective intelligence algorithms, population size influences the final answer so that for a large population, a better response is obtained but the algorithm execution time is longer. To overcome this problem, a new parameter called the dispersion coefficient is added to the algorithm. Implementation results show that by controlling this factor, system performance can be improved.

        Abstract One of the important Islamic movements which have had tremendous impact on Egypt and few other Islamic countries is &ldquo;Muslim Brotherhood&rdquo;. This organization was formed when Egypt was in a critical situation from the viewpoint of political, economic and religious conditions. Muslim Brotherhood on the one hand tried to revive the prevalence of Islamic teachings and on the other hand tried to change Islamic beliefs from stagnation and inactivity to dynamism and liveliness. With the emergence of Arab Spring movement which started with overthrow of Ben Ali in Tunisia, the movement spread to Egypt and Muslim Brotherhood did not succeed in establishing a stable and sustainable government. The present article by a descriptive analytical method and by the help of historical facts wants to examine the causes of failure of Muslim Brotherhood in establishing a stable government. The finding of the research shows that the causes of failure of them lie in internal factors like the destructive role of the army, the influence of secular forces, distancing of Al-Azhar from Morsi government and the external factors like interference of the United States and Saudi Arabia on the one hand and Turkey and Qatar on the other hand.

        Abstract: The position of countries like England, China, Russia and France as big powers in international system shows that for becoming a great power one has to activate the domestic, regional and international potentials and the absence of any of these components can impede the process of becoming influential power in international arena. This is also true about India and its position in international system. Although India has an important place in technological field, the world largest democracy and the world second largest population but in terms of economic, political and socio-cultural dimension face serious problems. For example more than 400 million people of the population live with one dollar a day. At the regional level India faces serious challenge from China and Pakistan and there are complicated border problems with these countries which are not resolved easily. Internationally also India is not an influential country. The present paper wants to evaluate the opportunities and challenges facing India to become a great power taking into consideration the economic, political, military and security determinants. The methodology used in the paper is futures studies.&nbsp;&nbsp; Manuscript profile

        In recent years, many countries in the world have a positive view of population growth, and accordingly, they have moved their policies towards incentive policies. Also, due to the decline in Iran's fertility below the replacement level in the mid-2000s, Iran's peronatalist policies resumed in 2006 after almost two decades. The purpose of this study is to review Iran's population incentive policies and compare it with other countries in the world. European countries are at the top of the list with negative population growth rates Who have tried to change the appearance of their population. Their incentive policies are mostly in the form of financial aid, education facilities, health, even in the form of vacation packages,. But in Iran, barriers to childbearing and even higher barriers to marriage have not yet been removed from young people, and incentives for marriage and childbearing have been written only on paper. Therefore, it is necessary for the authorities in the Iran to solve the necessary conditions as well as the economic problems of families as well as the problems of youth marriage, so that families can increase the generation and youth for marriage, without any economic or social problems, etc. Encourage the issue.

        The present study was conducted with the aim of evaluating the effect of demographic variables on collective behavior in the context of the Corona virus in Bushehr city. The research method is a survey that was conducted with a descriptive approach. The statistical population is all residents over 15 years of age in Bushehr city (197,864 people) in 1400. To determine the sample size, 384 people were selected from random cluster sampling. To collect data from a researcher-made questionnaire, Cronbach&#039;s alpha was used to check the content validity of the questionnaire from the point of view of professors and its reliability, which was calculated as 0.79 for the entire questionnaire. One-sample t-tests, Friedman&#039;s test and analysis of variance were also used to test the research hypotheses. The obtained results showed that the real average of the amount of show collective behavior for the respondents is equal to 195.11, which is higher than the average (174). In the ranking of the average dimensions of the collective performance variable, the dimension of social fashion has the first priority with an average rating of 6.28. Based on the results of the variables of gender, marital status, educational status and the type of residential house of people, they have a significant effect on the dramatic collective behavior. Based on the results of married people, women, people with low education and people who live in private homes, they are more affected by the dramatic collective behavior. Manuscript profile

        بز سوئیسی سانن نژادی است که در گله‌های تجاری سراسر جهان یافت می‌شود. در مقاله حاضر، ساختار جمعیت میکروبی بز سانن که به جیره‌های حاوی علوفه خشبی عادت کرده بودند با استفاده از تکنیک پایروسکوئنسینگ مطالعه شده است. نمونه محتویات شکمبه از تعداد 4 رأس بز با استفاده از لوله شکمی پس از چرای صبحگاهی گرفته شد. پس از خشک کردن نمونه‌های فوق با روش فریز درایر و استخراج دی‌ان‌ای، ژن‌های 16S rRNA باکتریایی و آرکه‌ای و 18S rRNA پروتوزوآیی با واکنش زنجیره پلیمراز تکثیر شدند و پس از توالی‌یابی با روش پایروسکوئنسینگ تیتانیوم 454، با نرم افزار کیمه آنالیز شدند. تجزیه داده‌ها نشان داد که در سطح جنس، پریوتلا که در شاخه باکتریودتز قرار دارد با غالبیت نسبی 41/29 درصد کل باکتری‌ها اکثریت جنس باکتریایی شکمبه را تشکیل داده بود. جنس طبقه‌بندی نشده‌ای از گروه باکتریودالز در همین شاخه (باکتریودتز) با سهم 01/11 درصد جمعیت باکتریایی به عنوان باکتری غالب دوم تعیین شد. شاخه غالب دوم باکتریایی در شکمبه بزهای سانن فرمیکوتس بود و 3 جنس طبقه‌بندی نشده رده کلستریدیالز ذیل این شاخه جمعا 42/21 درصد جمعیت باکتریایی را به خود اختصاص داده بودند. غالب‌ترین جنس پروتوزوآیی انتودینیوم بود که 78/46 درصد کل جمعیت پروتوزوآ را به خود اختصاص داده بود. پس از آن، اپیدینیوم و افریسکولکس با سهم 37/12 و 92/11 درصدی از کل جمعیت پروتوزوآ در رتبه دوم و سوم قرار داشتند. توالی‌های مرتبط با متانوپلاسماتالز به عنوان آرکه غالب جمعیت میکروبی در شکمبه بزهای سانن شناسایی شدند. متانوبرویباکتر گوتسچالکی کلید و متانوبرویباکتر رمیننتیوم کلید با فراوانی به ترتیب 79/35 و 36/13 درصد دومین و سومین گروه تولید‌کننده متان بودند. نسبت توالی‌های طبقه‌بندی نشده بالا در نمونه‌های محتویات شکمبه بزهای سانن در شرایط این مطالعه نشان می‌دهد باید مطالعات بیشتری بر اساس روش‌های مبتنی بر کشت در خصوص شناسایی گونه‌های مربوطه که احتمالاً در هضم فیبر نقش مهم و اساسی دارند انجام شود.

        Abstract Establishment of human settlements and modality it is distributed at the surface of the land will be the combined power of the region. On the other hand, the pattern of urban and rural settlements in the context of areas with each other can express the concepts of territorial convergence and divergence. These concepts together form the spatial organization of cities, and on the other hand, they will also help to understand the hierarchy of these settlements. The present study was conducted with the aim of spatial analysis and studying the hierarchical system of cities in Mazandaran province. This research is an applied extension research. Because, while developing the study frameworks, it provides the necessary background for future analysis and the research methodology is descriptive-analytic. In this paper, the trend of distribution of urban population of the province in the 1987-2017 census was investigated by applying models such as rank-size, Lorenz curve, condensation coefficient, entropy coefficient, primacy city index and hierarchical profile. According to the findings of the research, the distribution of urban population of the province in the different classes is relatively balanced, although the share of Sari, Babol, Amol and Qaemshahr is higher than other cities, but cities with a population of less than a number are more numerous and the dominance of Sari city in the hierarchy system The provincial city network is negligible Manuscript profile

        Agricultural land-use changes are considered as one of the undesirable phenomena indicating the greedy nature of humans. One of the most important consequences of this undesirable change is disorder in the livelihoods and income of local residents and the occurrence of population movements. Accordingly, the main objective of this study is to investigate the consequence of agricultural land-use change on the demographic changes in rural areas of Sari city. The method of this study is descriptive-analytical and library and survey methods were used to collect data. The statistical population of the study was 25 villages, which were selected by random quota sampling and according to Cochran formula, 381 families were selected as sample size. The results of the analysis showed that in the last decade, agricultural lands has been decreased by 6% in the studied villages. It has had a great impact on the rural population dynamics. In villages near to the city and the sea due to their proximity to Sari city and having more job opportunities and benefiting from services and infrastructure an increase in population density has occurred, while in remote villages due to lack of access and unfavorable services and facilities, and value added of agricultural land-use change population decline has occurred.

        Introduction: Border villages are among the most sensitive and strategic parts of the country that have unique and unique characteristics in various economic, social, political, cultural and security aspects. Migration of rural inhabitants of the border will deprive these regions of the productive and protective population of the country and create problems in the destination of migration.Research Aim: the present study aims to measure the tendency of households to migrate to the border villages of Torbat-Jam city which is more 95% of them are Sunnis.Methodology: The research method is descriptive-analytical and it is applied-developmental. Documentation and field data were collected using a questionnaire. The sample size is 214 Sunni households residing in 17 villages 10 km from the Iran-Afghanistan border.Studied Areas: The geographical area of this research is the villages located 10 kilometers from the Iran-Afghanistan border in Torbat-e Jam County of Razavi Khorasan province according to the country divisions of 2015 and before the separation of Saleh Abad County.Results: The results show that the mean tendency to migrate construct is 1.98 lower than the theoretical average and is low in the Likert spectrum. This is due to the religious dualism of the destination with the source of immigration, which creates a large social cost for the migrant at the destination. Therefore, among the inhabitants of the border villages of the city, migration as a defensive strategy in the face of livelihood challenges and the latest strategy to achieve Minimal living standards.Conclusion: This study showed that only the existence of some deprivations does not cause migration, because for the Sunni villagers living on the border, cultural reasons (living in birth place and with people of the same religion) cause a low desire to migrate. Since the population in the border villages is considered as a strategic reserve of the country, it is an inevitable necessity to try to solve the livelihood problems, especially considering the low desire of the residents to migrate and the relative stability of the population.

        The rapid population growth and urbanistion increase are among the phenomena which have appeared in a lot of countries in the world including Iran in recent decades; although the urban population increase is not an undesirble phenomenon per se and some think of it as a symbol of development . Thus, what is going to be discussed and analyzed here is the unbalanced distribution of population in urban centers rather than the percentage of urbanity . However Hamedan province possesses some natural capabilities and suitable strategic situation as well as a good history , it dose not have a suitable social and economical development; there is no hierarchy regardung dwelling system and ranking rational services in its cities, towns, and even rural areas . As a result ,a large number of its population is concentrated in the center of the province (i.e. Hamedan itself ) and a first-rank model governs the city . In this research, through a sstematic and comprehensive method , the present status of the province and the role of middle cities in the spatial development of the province has been studied in a logical and rational way .

        Population aging is going to be the one of the most urgent challenges for IRAN pension system. Policy makers in pension funds are facing a changing demographic structure of the society and have to find a way to adapt their future capacity to it. Therefore, this study will center on the policy responses that have been made so far, comparing the five countries. The main research question &ldquo;How have pension systems in developed and developing countries responded to the aging of their societies?&rdquo; will be divided into two sub&ndash;questions, &ldquo;To what extent have the five representative countries been affected by Global Aging in recent years?", "What pension reforms have been made in the representative countries?&rdquo; The research design is a comparative case study and focuses on information found in policy papers and scientific articles on representative countries. The aim of this study is to provide an understanding of the different kinds of responses that were shown so far and furthermore give an outlook on possible future approaches. This study suggests that policy makers in IRAN consider the parametric reform that mitigate financial pressure and consolidation of multiple funds. Manuscript profile

        The aim of conversion is, reaching improvement in life. country division conversion is being done in various aspects by politician in order to remove people's need. This research has been done with the study of country division's evolution on Isfahan (in recent 10 years) and investigate these conversions on demography. The dependant variable (country division conversion on one region)is conceptually investigated and has been codified&nbsp; with the emphasis on social science's idea, theoretical framework and hypothesis. Gender compound, occupation, housing and educational status are considered&nbsp; unaffected by changes in the country&nbsp; situation. These are major factors on economical planning program and are specially important for developing countries which have rapid population and distribution conversion. Comparing before and after conversions was done with the use of documentary method and present data in the government. Test of variable relation were analyzed by transforming raw data to percent. Interpretation of major findings obtained as follows: 1.There is relation between situation's conversion and gender compound of these 8 regions(Toudashk,Komshecheh,Barzac,Sefidshahr,Meshkat,Jouzdan,Bafran and Nasrabad) 2.There is relation between situation's conversion and occupation of people in these 7region (Toudashk, Golshahr, Nasrabad, Zibashahr, Chadegan, Barzac and Dehaghan) In summary, development solutions in region's conversion that are seemed frequently by transforming village to city is not completely and equally possible.

        One of the genes that can play a role in increasing the incidence of type 2 diabetes is the MNSODA16V gene. In this study, the relationship between this gene and type 2 diabetes mellitus among Mazandaran people was studied. About 1cc of blood containing EDTA (CBC) plasma were obtained from 50 infected and 50 individuals. In order to determine the amount and quality of DNA, two methods of quantitative evaluation using spectrophotometric method and qualitative evaluation using electrophoresis were used. In order to estimate the DNA concentration, 4 &mu;l of the DNA base solution was mixed with one &mu;l of the sampler buffer and evaporated once in the wells of 1.2% agarose gel in the TAE buffer. To evaluate the PCR product, 2% agarose gel was performed. 5 &mu;l of the product of each reaction, with 1 ml of color, was transferred to gel wells and electrophoresis at 100 volts for 1.5 hours. The gel was stained in Ethidium bromide solution (0.5 mg / ml) for 20 minutes, and then transferred to distilled water from the dye gel apparatus. Unfortunately, due to the repeated use of up to 3 times and the use of the DNA extraction kit, this is not the work process and needs to be further explored. For this reason, this study shows little success with the association of MNSODA16V polymorphism and also requires more study in different populations to better understand the role of MNSODA16V.

        Health indicators, as a significant factor, can play a crucial role in enhancing the levels of developmental indicators in countries. The present study aims to examine the impact of health indicators on economic indicators during the period 1395-1399 for 31 provinces of the country. This research is of an applied and analytical nature. Data analysis is conducted using Stata 17 software, and model estimation is based on the Panel Data pattern. To test the hypotheses, Xtpcse test has been utilized to achieve the results.The results obtained from estimating the model indicate a positive and significant impact of health indicators on economic indicators such as the participation rate of the population aged 10 and older, the unemployment rate of the population aged 10 and older, the Gini coefficient of urban and rural areas, per capita gross domestic product, gross domestic product, health and treatment costs, and education. Therefore, health indicators can have a significant impact on economic development. Thus, by addressing barriers to improving health, efforts can be made towards enhancing the sustainable development of provinces in economic and other educational, human, and various other domains.

        Background &amp; Objectives: Despite of widely use of pesticides in agricultural industry, their ecotoxicological impacts on the environment are not still well understood. In the present study, the effects of chlorpyrifos and deltamethrin pesticides on soil microbial diversity in different salinities were investigated.Materials and methods: Four soil samples with various salinities (0, 1%, 2% and 4%) were contaminated with 200 mg/kg of chlorpyrifos and deltamethrin. Then, the effects of these compounds were investigated by culture-dependent and Next Generation Sequencing (NGS) methods. The dominant bacterial strains were isolated and compared with the results of the NGS method.Results: Remarkable groups of active soil species were destroyed. The main groups at the phylum level were, Firmicutes, Proteobacteria, Bacteroidetes and Actinobacteria. Examination of the&nbsp;&nbsp; pattern of operational taxonomic unit (OTU) showed that the lowest abundance belonged to the group of soil samples contaminated with chlorpyrifos and the highest abundance belonged to the non-contaminated sample. Alpha diversity analysis revealed that the highest number of strains was observed in non-saline and uncontaminated soil microcosms, and the lowest number of strains was observed in the presence of deltamethrin (1% salinity) and chlorpyrifos (0% salinity).Conclusion: The results indicated that soil salinity had significant impact on the resistance of soil microorganisms to the chlorpyrifos and deltamethrin. Every soil samples will have its own microbial composition based on its physicochemical conditions under the influence of pesticide contamination. By comparison of microbial composition by culture-dependent and molecular-based methods, almost similar findings were obtained.&nbsp; Manuscript profile

        Background and Objectives: Many bacteria utilize quorum sensing mechanism in order to coordinate their vital functions such as survival, motility, production of biofilm, pathogenicity factors, etc. Interfering with the complicated cell-to-cell communication system paralyses bacterial calls to perform their different indigenous functions like pathogenicity. In this study interfering effects of two distinguished plant extracts, whitetop and dill, on bacterial quorum sensing of Chromobacterium violaceum CV026 was evaluated. Materials and Methods: Whitetop and dill plant species were collected from the surrounding agricultural areas and commercial fields of Urmia City. The collected plants were extracted using three organic solvents, 96% ethanol, n-hexane and methanol. The Antimicrobial susceptibility and anti-quorum sensing bioassays were then performed to find out their bactericidal property and depletion of violacein, respectively. Furthermore, the assays regarding pathogenicity suppression using anti-quorum sensing activity and acyl homoserine lactone induction through Pectobacterium carotovorum subsp. carotovorum strain were carried out. Results: Based on the results, both of the plant extracts possess meaningful anti-QS activities; however, the proportion of the activity in whitetop was fewer than dill. Furthermore, the aforementioned plant extracts had bactericidal activity in which whitetop had more proportion in comparison to dill. Conclusion: Due to decrease in the production level of violacein by CV026 as a result of the anti-quorum sensing activity of whitetop and dill extracts, application of the extracts can be considered as an appropriate approach for controlling bacterial pathogens without developing resistance.

        Abstract Studying different decision-making styles in different groups helps to better understand the market because when customers are well characterized, we can better help them to make a purchase. The present research explored Sproles and Kendall&rsquo;s eight decision-making styles of consumers (perfectionist and high-quality conscious, novelty-fashion conscious, brand conscious, price conscious, recreational and hedonistic conscious, confused by over choice, impulsive and careless, and habitual and brand loyal) with different demographic characteristics (gender, age, marital status, education, occupation, income, and household size). In this regard, the data of 530 consumers (selected by the convenience sampling method) of Sunich juices in Khuzestan province were collected. Afterward, the data were analyzed by ANOVA and T-test using SPSS software. The results revealed the demographic differences of consumers with different decision-making styles. Finally, the discussion and practical suggestions were presented based on the findings.

        The present study mainly aims to model the individual investors' behavior in the capital market following the neural financial approach. The present study is categorized as mixed method research. The grounded theory and the technique of the structural equations were used in the qualitative and quantitative parts. Data were collected through semi-structured interviews and a researcher-made questionnaire. The sampling continued until theoretical saturation, which was achieved after 17 interviews. Then, the behavioral model of individual investors with antecedents and consequences was developed based on the systematic approach of Strauss and Corbin's theory in three main steps, including open, axial, and selective coding. The results indicated that the causal conditions affecting investors' behavior in the same contextual conditions are generally in two main groups of neuropsychological and demographic factors. In a quantitative part, it was found that neuropsychological factors are effective with an intensity of 79%. Among the components of this variable, emotional behavior and location had the most and the least impacts, respectively, and the demographic factors were effective with an intensity of 12%. Financial support and gender also had the most and the least impact among the components of this variable, respectively. Manuscript profile

        The purpose of the current research was to investigate the psychological factors affecting impulse buying behavior in sports customers. The current research is applied in terms of the implementation goal and descriptive in terms of the collection process. The research community included customers of sports stores and sampling was done by simple random sampling. A researcher-made questionnaire was used to collect information. The validity of the questionnaire was confirmed by sports management professors. The reliability of the questionnaire was obtained using Cronbach's alpha method of 0.70. Descriptive statistics were used to describe the data and inferential statistics (factor analysis method and structural equation test) were used to analyze the data. The existence of all conditions of structural equations showed that psychological factors including self-esteem, excitement seeking, excitability, extroversion, enjoyment of shopping and self-confidence are effective in the emergence of impulse buying behavior in sports goods customers. Examining the identified demographic factors also showed that women more than men, married people more than single people, people interested in the brand more than those indifferent to the brand, and fans of sports teams make impulse purchases more than non-fans, and on the other hand, age , social class, income level, sports skill level and education level are not effective in the occurrence of impulse buying behavior.

        In financial studies, portfolio can be defined as a set of investments that are selected and accepted by an individual or institution. Portfolio selection is one of the main concerns of investors in financial markets. The average-variance model with bound restrictions is considered as one of the main models in solving the portfolio optimization problem. In terms of complexity, this model is a polynomials NP-hard non-linear problem that cannot be accurately solved. In this study, an Antlion optimizer- Genetic algorithm (ALOGA) and a population based incremental learning and differential evolution algorithm (PBILDE), which are modern meta-heuristic models for solving optimization problem, are used to optimize the investment portfolio through increase the return and reduce the risk. Among 591 companies listed on Tehran stock exchange from April 2012 through March 2015, 150 companies were selected as the final sample using screening method. The data of these companies were analyzed using the applied algorithms in this research and their efficiency was compared together. The results indicate that ALOGA and PBILDE algorithms both are suitable for solving the portfolio optimization problem. In addition, using the ALOGA algorithm, it is possible to create an optimal portfolio with high accuracy and efficiency. Manuscript profile

        The cereal cyst nematodes are one of the most important soil-born pathogens on wheat and barley throughout the world. The two species of the cereal cyst nematodes, H. filipjevi and H. latiponsare widely distributed in Iran, but H. avenae has limited distribution. A field survey was conducted for determining of distribution regions and population density of the cereal cyst nematodesin Markazi province in 2009. In this study 83 soil sample of wheat and barley fields were taken from Arak, Shazand, Farmahin, Ashtian, Komijan, Tafresh, Zarandieh, Mahallat, Khomein and Saveh regions. The modified Fenwick can technique was used to extract cysts from the soil. Based on the morphological characteristics of the second stage juveniles and the vulval cone structures, two species were identified as H. filipjevi and H. latipons. The results showed that H. filipjevi was the most dominant species in both wheat and barley fields, whereas, H. latipons was found on wheat in Khomein and Zarandieh regions. H. filipjevi had more distribution and population density in Farmahin, Tafresh and Khomein regions in comparison to other regions. The cereal cyst nematodes were found in 39.7% of rain-fed fields of wheat and barley of the Markazi province. The most of nematode population density was determined (20-40 cyst per 300 g of soil) in some cereal fields that can be as one of limiting factor in yield reduction. Manuscript profile

        Type 2 diabetes is the most common diabetes and includes about 90% of all diabetic cases in the world. The most common gene polymorphism (VEGF405CG) is in the untranslated region of 5UTR, 405CG polymorphism probably has an effect on the level of expression after the gene translation and increases the gene products. VEGF is a vascular endothelium factor that plays an important role in DR pathogenicity as an angiogenic and capillary permeability factor. Therefore, VEGF405CG may be a good candidate for potential of catching diabetes type 2. The purpose of this study was to determine the relationship between this gene and diseases such as type 2 diabetes in the population of Mazandaran province. The tested specimens consisted of 50 patient and 50 healthy people referring to the Atieh and Shahid Babaei laboratories. About 1 ml of blood containing EDTA (CBC) from 50 patient and 50 healthy individual was taken as a control after obtaining informed consent. In order to determine the amount and quality of DNA, which is a very important step in the RFLP method, spectrophotometric and electrophoresis method were used for quantitative and qualitative evaluation, respectively. To estimate the concentration of DNA, 4 &mu;l of the base DNA solution was mixed with 1 &mu;l of the sampler buffer and in a well, 1.5% agarose gel was evacuated in TAE buffer. A PCR product was evaluated on an2 % agarose gel. 5 &mu;l of product of each reaction with 1 ml of color transferred to gel wells and electrophoresis was performed at a voltage of 100 V for 1.5 hours. The gel was stained in ethidium bromide solution (0.5 mg/ml) for 20 minutes and after transferred to distilled water was photographed with gel dock. This study does not show any association between VEGF405CG polymorphism among type II diabetic patients and further study is needed in different populations to better understanding the role of VEGF405CG.

        Iran has limited water resources combined with high evapotranspiration. The overpopulation and the increasing need of food and thus the lack of agricultural products always rings the alarm. Thus with development of water resources and saving water, we can raise surface water irrigated fields and finally raise agricultural productivity. In this project, by using existing data from soil and water resources in the Central Desert, including provincesKhorasanRazavi and Jonoobi, Semnan, Isfahan, Qom, Yazd, Hormozgan, Kerman, Sistan and Baluchestan and by using Boolean logic and GIS software, suitable and talented areas, identified for the implementation of modern irrigation systems, And then based on the results of questionnaires, affecting factors of rejection the pressurized irrigation systems by farmers in desert areas were analyzed with SPSS software And finally by using sustainable agricultural development indicators of population, the population sustainable settlement, it was estimated. The results show that, with the proper use of water and soil resources and avoid wasting this valuable resource not only can be increase production per unit area index over the country and world but also by increasing acreage can be increase products in the range of 4 to 42 percent and establishment of population based on various indices in the range of 11 to 34 percent. While economic-administrative agent as the main challenge in the implementation of pressurized irrigation systems in desert areas were identified. &nbsp; Manuscript profile

        The Amenities can be defined in terms of the opportunities that a city provide to its..amenity is one of the dynamic of urban spaces that can provide the basis of urban health for sustainable urban development.accordingly the purpose of this article is to analyze the role of urban amenity from a social and cultural point of view of the tendency of citizens to movespatially in five selected areas of Tehran. For this purpose, 1103 citizens of districts two, seven, the, nineteen and twenty-one Tehran were selected using cluster sampling method. The data collection tool is a researcher-made questionaire. spss software was used for analysis. Pearson correlation was used to show the relationship between demographic factors and social-cultural amenity factor analysis method and was used for qualitive differences and logistic regression was used to indicate the tendancy shift. Based on the Findings the social – cultural amenity of the city along with demographic correlations such as age, sex, education, income and length of stay in the study areas have a significant correlation with age, education, income and inverse relationship with the length of stay in the place of residence of the respondents. this means that the longer the stay the less there will be a tendency to move. the results obtained from the factor load showed that the value of the amenity index increases with age and the importance of amenity varies among the educational groups, womaen and men, income. the results of logistic regression analysis showed that demographic variables have a significant effect and and socio- cultural amenity is inversely related to the tendency of people to move in the five regions .

        This study was conducted to develop a binomial (presence-non presence) sequential sampling model for saving time in determining population density of greenbug, Schizaphisgraminum (Rondani) in broom corn fields. For this purpose, 50 broom corn stems were sampled every three days for counting the aphid number. The mean and variance of population at each sampling date were used to estimate spatial dispersion parameters. Then, Taylor&rsquo;s Power Law parameters were used to prepare binomial sequential sampling models at two precision levels of 0.10 and 0.25. The spatial distribution of S. graminum in the field was clumped and its mean population at different sampling dates ranged from 0.14 to 25.45 aphids per stem. Comparison of models showed that sample size required for estimating aphid population increased significantly by reducing the precision level from 0.25 to 010. Therefore, the binomial sequential sampling model at the precision level of 0.10 was very time consuming and was not suitable for estimating aphid population density. However, the model at 0.25 precision level reduced the required sample size compared to the fixed sample size method. Overall, using binomial sequential sampling model at 25% precision level, the proposed precision level for pest management programs can reduce sampling time in comparison to the fixed sample size method and is recommended for estimating the pest population in integrated pest management programs in broomcorn farms Manuscript profile

        The present research was carried out for determining spatial distribution type and developing sequential sampling models for precise estimating of corn leaf aphid, Rhopalosiphum maidis (Fitch) population in broomcorn, sorghum vulgare var. technicum, fields of Miyaneh region, Iran. To investigate spatial distribution pattern, population was sampled every 3 days on 50 broomcorn tillers to calculate variance and mean number of aphids at each sampling date. Taylor&rsquo;s power law was more suitable and so its parameters was used to develop sequential sampling models using Green (1970) method at precision levels of D = 0.1 and D = 0.25. Results revealed high number of corn leaf aphid in broomcorn field with an aggregated dispersion pattern. Mean aphid population at different sampling dates varied from 5.22 to 109.10 aphids per stem. Estimates of spatial distribution parameters were used to develop sequential sampling models and sampling stop lines using Green (1970) method at precision levels of D = 0.1 and D = 0.25. Comparison of sampling models showed that sample size required for estimating aphid density significantly increased by decreasing precision level from 0.25 to 0.1. So, sequential sampling model at 0.10 precision level was time&shy;-&shy;consuming and it was not suitable for estimating corn leaf aphid population. However, sequential sampling model at 0.25 precision level reduced sample size required for monitoring R. maidis population in comparison to the fixed sample size method. In conclusion, sequential sampling model at 0.25 precision level could reduce sampling time and so, it recommended for estimating population in IPM programs of the pest in broomcorn fields of Miyaneh region.

        Aphids are the most injurious pests of broom corn in Miyaneh region, Iran. Chemicals are used in different times for plant protection by farmers, regardless to natural enemy activity. Identification of native natural enemies is essential in integrated pest management programs. In this research, broom corn aphid parasitoids were collected and identified and their population fluctuations were also studied in comparison to their aphid hosts. For this purpose, aphid colonies were sampled and mummies were collected. Live aphids were also reared on broom corn seedlings for 10 days to select parasitized aphids from unparasitized ones. Results revealed that, there were two aphid species in broom corn fields of Miyaneh region, including Schizaphis graminum and Rhopalosiphum maidis. Parasitoids were collected on both mentioned aphids and were belong to genus Aphelinus, family Aphelinidae. High parasitoid population was seen when aphid population was high, and vise versa. Significant positive correlation of aphid and parasitoid populations was duo to host specificity and might be a criterion of effective natural enemies. Manuscript profile

        Broom corn is one of the most important crops in Miyaneh region, Iran. Aphids are major pests of the crop and farmers use different chemicals to their control in several times. In this research, broom corn aphids were collected and identified. Population fluctuation of the aphids was also investigated by weekly sampling and their biological characteristics were studied using leaf cages. The results revealed that, there were two species including Schizaphis graminum and Rhopalosiphum maidis in broom corn fields. Population peak of S. graminum (mean number of 10.725 aphids per tiller) was observed in June and decreased rapidly in July. R. maidis appeared later than S. graminum, but it was the most injurious aphid species of&nbsp; broom corn during all growing season. R. maidis population and it&rsquo;s honeydew covered some plants and caused necrosis so that it&rsquo;s number reached more than 1000 aphids per tiller. Mean number of this species reached to 114.75 aphids per tiller and then decreased rapidly. In laboratory studies, mortality rate of S. graminum and&nbsp; R. maidis on broom corn leaves was relatively low (3.2 and 5.6 percent). Nymphs of both species matured in less than 10 days. Mean longevity and mean fertility of mentioned aphid species was 28.2 and 32.6 days and 41.84 and 49.7 nymphs per female respectively. Mean generation time of S. graminum and R. maidis was also 11.3 and 10.9 days respectively. Manuscript profile

        Aphids are the most important pests of broom corn, Sorghum cernuum, in Miyaneh region and chemical pesticides are severally used for plant protection by farmers regardless to beneficial insect&rsquo;s activity. With respect to the importance of conservation strategy of natural enemies in integrated pest management programs, aphid specific predators including lady beetles, flower flies and lacewings were collected and identified and their population fluctuation were compared to that of host aphids. Collection of predators was done by sweep net and visiting aphid colonies. The flower fly Sphaerophoria scripta , lacewing Chrysoperla carnea, and five species of lady beetles including: Coccinella septempunctata, C. undecimpunctata، ،Hippodamia variegata، Scymnus cf. frontalis and Propylea quatuordecimpunctat were&nbsp; collected from greenbug, Schizaphis graminum and maize leaf aphid, Rhopalosiphum maidis colonies. Synchronization and positive correlation of greenbug and flower fly populations was observed due to host specificity of Sphaerophoria scripta . Among lady beetles, Scymnus cf. frontalis was the most frequent and important species due to oviposition on broom corn and it&rsquo;s population showed positive significant correlation with that of maize leaf aphid. However adult lacewing Chrysoperla carnea is a carbohydrate feeder and did not lay any egg on the field, and so it had not any role in controling aphid populations of broom corn. Manuscript profile

        Ants (Hymenoptera: Formicidae) are one of the important predators in different agroecosystems. Considering the importance of ants in predating and feeding at different life stages of pests, fauna and population fluctuation of these beneficial insects were studied in rice fields of Mazandaran province. Of the faunistic survey, totally 15 species of ants were collected and identified from the paddy fields in Mazandaran province. The results of population fluctuations on the stubbles of three varieties including, Fajr, Khazar and Nemat indicated that the ants' population density was higher on Fajr than the two other varieties, and there was not a significant difference between Khazar and Nemat. Samplings from 11 September to 15 November 2005 indicated that the population density increased until last October and then decreased gradually; the highest density was obtained in 30 October. The means comparison revealed the significant reciprocal effect of "sampling date &times; rice variety" on population density of ants "P&lt;0.01". Manuscript profile

        Using long lasting combs have deleterious effects on honey bee larval development due to pathogenic contamination and toxins. In this research,&nbsp; old combs with unknown age and dark colour and new maked ones were obtained and bee reproduction and &nbsp;population were compared in old and new bee waxes. Old combs were placed in strong bee colonies to clean them of debris. Brood performance and population of&nbsp; honey bee were then measured for each colony on days 14 and 21 at reproduction season. Results revealed that queen reproduction and body weight of young adults were significantly higher in new combs (p&lt;%1). Accumulated debris and numerous contaminants caused smaller mean cell diameters in older combs&nbsp; and&nbsp; resulted in decreased &nbsp;weight of young adults. Also, thoset had deleterious effects on bee health. Bees reared in new combs weighted about 8.3% more those reared in old ones. Results showed the effectiveness of new combs on brood performance and honey production. Thus, elimination of &nbsp;very old brood combs by bee keepers were recommended.&nbsp; &nbsp; Manuscript profile
