Recognition and understanding the genetic control of traits, combining ability and genetic structure are directly related to the success of breeding programs. For this purpose, a 7 × 7 one-way diallel design was conducted in a randomized complete block design with three replications. The measured traits were included plant height, height to the first capsule, NUMBER of days to 50% and 90% of flowering, NUMBER of capsules per plant, NUMBER of seeds per capsule, NUMBER of days to physiological ripening, NUMBER of BRANCHES, leaves NUMBER and length, 1000-seeds weight, capsule weight, length and width, chlorophyll a, b and total chlorophyll, biological andeconomic yields, harvest index, oil and protein percentage. Analysis of variance showed that there was a significant difference between genotypes and diallel analysis showed that the additive variance of all traits and dominant variance of all traits except height to the first fruit-bearing capsule were significant. The oltan cultivar was the best and Ardestan genotype was the worst genotype in terms of general combining ability. Sabzevar×TS-3 and Sirjan×Fars were the best hybrids in most traits. The general heritability was between 0.90 to 0.96 for biologic yield and NUMBER of BRANCHES, respectively and narrow heritability was between 0.36 to 0.91 for the NUMBER of BRANCHES and harvest index, respectively. The analysis of variance by Hayman method confirmed the results of Griffing analysis.

The effect of NUMBER of mating on longevity and fecundity of the predatory mite Euseius scutalis Athias-henriot was studied under laboratory conditions (at 25±1 ºC, 60 ± 5 % RH and 16: 8 L:D). Newly emerged adult females (less than 24 h) were held individually in a 9 cm arena. A male (less than 24 h) remained with a female for limited periods of time or continuously. Four treatments were designed: virgin females, single mated females, multiple mated females (female had access to a male every five days), multiple mated females (female had continuous access to a male). Mating was necessary for oviposition. Virgin females lived the longest (25 days). However, no significant differences were found among longevity of mated females (12- 15). Similarly, no significant differences were detected among fecundity of females with different NUMBERs of mating (18- 22 eggs). Sex ratio was significantly female-biased in progeny of single mated females and multiple mated females with periodic access to male. However, no significant difference was found in sex ratio of progeny of multiple mated females with continuous access to male.

To investigate the effects of water deficit stress and bio and non-bio fertilizers on Thymus Vulgaris, a split plot experiment was conducted based on randomized complete block design with three replications in 2017 in Asgarya agricultural field in Yazd. The treatments included water tension: W1=7 (Control), W2=12 and W3=17 days irrigation intervals as the main factor and bio and non - bio fertilizers at five levels including B1= control (without fertilizer), B2= endo mycorrhiza (Glomus), B3= Azospirillum bacteria, B4= Pseudomonas bacteria and B5= chemical fertilizer (NPK) a sub – factors. Results showed that the highest flowering BRANCHES yield, a, b, and total chlorophylls and nitrogen and phosphorus elements were observed in 17 days of irrigation (W3). 12 days of irrigation treatment (W2) showed the highest potassium element rate. The highest a, b and chlorophylls and nitrogen were observed in Azospirillum treatment (B3). The highest total chlorophyll, phosphorus element, carotenoids and flavonoids were observed in Pseudomonas treatment (B4); the highest potassium element rate were obtained in mycorrhiza treatment (B2); the highest flowering BRANCHES yield were observed in NPK treatment (B5) and control (B1) treatment resulted in the highest anthocyanin

The objective of this study was to determine the allowed and desired limits for heavy soils of texture (clay loom), as it has operational capability (friability), These limits were 6.34 mm for planting and 10.62 mm for harvesting in each raining or irrigation episode. We determined some factors that affect soil wetness and water content as follow: the amount and severity of rain, the condition of soil’s drainage, the percent of air moisture, evapotranspiration, the amount of runoff, the amount and severity of sunlight, the ambient temperature, the condition of vegetation and, the soil texture. The time needed for dryness and removal of soil moisture as evapotranspiration in each over- desired and allowed capacity rains are 5-7 days. Also, because of higher evaporation in planting time (late April and early May) than in harvesting time (November), and also higher surface temperature in spring, both result in moving the vapor from deeper layers of soil to surface. Therefore, as our result showed, the time needed for readiness of soil for machinery operation at time of planting are 5 days for planting (late April and early May) and 7 days for harvesting time (November). According to our calculation, 19.5% of rains at planting time and 7.5% at harvest time changed to run- off; and with taking this amount of run- off in account at allowed- limit calculation, and also because of texture of the studied soil, the maximum allowed rain in which the soil remains in proper condition for machinery planting and harvesting activities exceeded 7.6 and 11.41 mm in each rainy day. As a result, according to limiting factor of well doing of operations and also factors affecting these restricting factors, the NUMBER of working days for mechanized planting operation was found to be about 19.69 days and also 21.98 days for harvesting operations in farms with heavy soil with 98% of probability.

In order to investigate the possibility of quinoa producing in Garmsar, Iran, a factorial experiment conducted in randomized complete block design with three replications in 2018-2019 growing season at Garmsar Agricultural Research Station. The factors were planting date at three levels (March 6th, April 1st and April 6th) and the three genotypes of quinoa (Q26, Q29 and Titicaca). Results showed that the effect of planting date was significant for all studied traits except the harvest index. Also, all studied traits were significantly different in all genotypes. Titicaca planted on March 6th had the highest yield (2276 kg.ha-1).The grain yield and yield components decreased with the delaying the planting date. Compared to early plantings, Latest date, April 6th, led to reduction of all traits, especially grain yield (about 50%). The results of simple phenotypic correlation between the studied traits showed that grain yield per hectare had the highest correlation with plant yield (0.877) and then with leaf area index (0.832), panicle weight (0.815) and NUMBER of BRANCHES per plant (0.745) that was significant at the 1% probability level.

One of the main objectives in Bank customer- orientation is to reduce the waiting time of customers at the branch. One solution is optimal utilization of capacity and adequate facilities. Employing more than enough may cause additional costs to the Bank. This paper uses a new methodology to determine the optimal combination of equipment and facilities in Bank BRANCHES. For this purpose, mathematical model consisting of minimizing the objective function and some constraints was developed. We solved this model by using Simulated Annealing algorithm of answers or simulation scenarios with respect to the objective function so that the optimal plausible scenario is chosen. In this method, first possible scenarios are made by considering issue constraints, using MATLAB and simulation software ED in 50 times (each time 8 hours). Finally, with respect to the combined equipment and facilities of each scenario, the costs of using equipment and the cost of losts customers were calculated, and a scenario in which 4 Rial booths, 2 exchange booths, 3 facility booths, and two ATM booths are used with the lowest cost, WAS chosen as the optimal scenario.

In this research, the effect of the NUMBER of BRANCHES and the geographical distribution of bank BRANCHES on the profitability of Bank Sepah in Ardebil province has been studied. In this study, data and information related to Sepah Bank in Ardabil province in the period 1371 to 1399 are collected and in the form of time series data and cross-sectional data are estimated in two separate models. The results of the model estimation showed that the geographical distribution of the bank BRANCHES affects their profitability and this effect is statistically significant at a significant level of 5%. In other words, the branch operating in high-income areas of the city has a higher profitability compared to the middle and low income regions. The NUMBER of Bank Sepah BRANCHES also has a positive effect on bank profitability and this effect is statistically significant at a significant level of 5%. Also the loan to the asset ratio, the size of the bank and the market share of the bank has a positive and significant effect on its profitability. Also, at a significant level of 5%, the NUMBER of years of activity of the bank branch has a positive and significant effect on its profitability.

In order to investigate the effect of supplemental irrigation and plant density on growth characteristics, yield and yield components of three dry lentil cultivars, Experiment in the crop year 2010-2011 A randomized complete block design with four replications was used in the research field of the Faculty of Agriculture of the University of Ilam. Rainfed conditions with complementary irrigation and non-irrigated dryland were the main factors of the experiment. Planting density factor (at two levels of 200 and 400 plants m-2) and lentil cultivar (including three cultivars Gauche saran, Bile saver, Kimia) formed the sub-plots of the experiment. The results showed that supplemental irrigation increased the NUMBER of full pods and decreased the NUMBER of empty pods and increased the NUMBER of pods per plant and single plant yield. An increase in the density of all traits (height, NUMBER of flowers, NUMBER of main and sub-BRANCHES, NUMBER of pods, single dry weight and yield per plant) decreased and only the NUMBER of empty pods increased. According to the results, Bile saver cultivar had the highest NUMBER of main and secondary shoots as well as the highest dry weight of a single plant. The highest NUMBER of flowers and NUMBER of pods per plant belonged to Kimia cultivar interaction effect on a NUMBER of pods per plant was significant at 1% probability level. The NUMBER of hollow pods and the NUMBER of BRANCHES were also affected by irrigation interaction. The interaction of all three factors on the NUMBER of BRANCHES was significant at one percent probability level.

Value of Cultivation and Use (VCU) trial of some new cotton genotypes and cultivars have been performed at Tehran province agriculture and natural resources research and education center at Varamin, based on complete randomized design by four replications during 2016 and 2017.

Introduction: Water is one of the most important environmental factors that has a significant effect on the growth, development and active ingredients of medicinal plants. Developing plant that has minimum water requirements and maximum production in dehydration conditions is the one of ways to cope with the problem of water scarcity. Medicinal plants and especially their native species due to genetics, morphological characteristics and having some secondary metabolites have higher stress tolerance potential than other herbs and are suitable alternatives for cropping under stressful conditions. Today, the use of various types of organic acids has been used to improve the quality and quantity of crops and horticulture and tolerance to drought stress. Humic acid is a natural organic material that is obtained from the final degradation of soil organic matter by microorganisms. Humic acid stimulates the growth of aerial parts and root plants. Application of Humic acid increases the amount of roots and improves the root system. Fennel is a herbaceous, aromatic and perennial grasses of umbrella and grown in warm areas of the country. In Khuzestan, due to planting in autumn, the plant reproductive stage begins with the onset of heat, precipitation discontinuity (mid-March) and dryness, so we must determine the levels of irrigation and provide solutions to reduce the effect of drought stress on the production. The comparison of genetic material and introduction of superior ecotypes are the solution to obtain adaption ecotypes. Therefore, the present study was carried out with the aim of studying the growth and yield characteristics, as well as the percentage and essential oil yield and irrigation efficiency of essential oil production in fennel ecotypes under irrigation levels and foliar spraying of humic acid in Ahwaz weather condition. Materials and methods: This experiment was carried out on factorial split plot based on randomized complete block design with three replications in 2016-2017 years at research farm of Ramin Agriculture and Natural Resources University of Khuzestan. Irrigation levels (complete irrigation, irrigation stop from flowering stage, irrigation stop from grain filling stage) and foliar spraying of humicacid (no spraying and foliar spraying 400 mg. l-1) in the form of factorial in main plots and ecotype (Isfahan, Hamadan, Bushehr) were also investigated in sub plots. NUMBER of nodes, stem diameter, second internode length, NUMBER of umbrellas in main stem, umbrella NUMBER in sub branch, seed yield, essential oil percentage, essential oil yield and water use efficiency were evaluated after harvesting. Statistical analysis including analysis of variance, comparison of averages, using statistical software system 2 / 9SAS, and comparison of mean of data did with LSD test at 5% error probability level. Results and discussion: The results showed that irrigation stop, ecotype and foliar spraying of humic acid had a significant effect on the traits. Foliar spraying of humic acid increased the length of the internode and the NUMBER of umbrella in the sub branch. The Isfahan ecotype with 6. 22 nodes was the highest and the Hamadan ecotype with 4. 75 nodes had the lowest NUMBER of nodes. The highest stem diameter was obtained under complete irrigation and foliar spraying of humic acid (1. 93 cm). Increasing drought stress decreased the length of the second internode, while it was the highest in complete irrigation conditions (11. 36 cm). Foliar spraying of humic acid increased by 20% in umbrella NUMBER in the sub branche, and Bushehr ecotype with 61. 25 in complete irrigation conditions had the largest NUMBER of umbrella in the sub branch. Also, the least umbeller in the main stem was obtained in Bushehr ecotype under foliar spraying of humic acid conditions (4. 82) and the lowest in the Hamedan ecotype with no spraying. The results showed that the highest grain yield was related to Bushehr ecotype with 1720. 12 kg / ha. The highest yield and essential oil efficiency were obtained in Bushehr ecotype under complete irrigation and foliar spraying of humic acid. Conclusions: Based on the results of this study, water shortage tension due to irrigation stop in each stage of reproductive development of fennel can have adverse effect on grain yield, but the effect of stress in flowering stage is much higher than grain filling stage. The results of the experiment showed that irrigation stop at the reproductive stage of fennel had a decreasing effect on all studied traits. The use of organic fertilizer such as humi cacid reduced lightly the effect of water stress. Also, Bushehr ecotype is recommended for cultivation in the studied area due to having more umbrellas in main stem and sub branch, higher grain yield, higher water use efficiency along with foliar spraying of humic acid
