    The Effects of Irrigation Regimes on Second Cropping of Three Soybean Genotypes in Moghan Region

    To determine the effects of different irrigation regimes on second cropping of three soybean genotypes (Glycine max L.), an on farm split plot experiment based on randomized complete block design with 3 replications was carried out at Moghan Agricultural and Natural Resources Center during summer, 2010. The seeds were planted in a plot with 6 rows 60 cm wide, 250 cm length and plants 3 cm apart on the rows. The main plots comprised 4 irrigation regimes: I1=60 mm, I2=90 mm, I3 =120 mm and I4=150mm evaporation from class A pan) and sub-plots soybean genotypes (Williams, Linford and L17). The traits recorded were plant height, number of nodes, pods and seeds per plant, 1000 seeds weight, seed yield, height of first pod, number of empty pods, leaf number, lateral branches number (productive), pods length, inter-nodes distances, chlorophyll content, stem weight, pods weight, green leaf and roots  weights. Analysis of variance of the data showed that there were significant differences among characters (like plant height, node number, pod number, inter node distance, pods weight, chlorophyll context volume and roots weight) and irrigation treatments The I1 treatment had the highest yield and node number, while the I4 treatment resulted in the least plant height and nodes number. Also I2 treatment produced the highest pods number while the treatments I4 resulted in the least pot number. Highest chlorophyll content was obtained under I4 treatment but under I2 treatment it was the least. The highest pod weight was obtained from I3 treatment and it was the least under the I4 treatment. The highest root weight was resulted from using I2 treatment and the lowest from I4. Also, ANOVA showed significant differences for plants height and inter nodes distances among genotypes (

    Clinical spectrum in multiple families with primary COQ10 deficiency

    Coenzyme Q10/COQ10, an essential cofactor in the electron-transport chain is involved in ATP production. Primary COQ10 deficiency is clinically and genetically a heterogeneous group of mitochondrial disorders caused by defects in the COQ10 synthesis pathway. Its mode of inheritance is autosomal recessive and it is characterized by metabolic abnormalities and multisystem involvement including neurological features. Mutations in 10 genes have been identified concerning this group of diseases, so far. Among those, variants of the COQ7 gene are very rare and confined to three patients with Asian ancestry. Here, we present the clinical features and results of whole-exome sequencing (WES) of three Iranian unrelated families affected by primary COQ10 deficiency. Three homozygous variants in COQ2, COQ4, and COQ7 genes were identified. Candidate variants of the COQ2 and COQ4 genes were novel and associated with the cerebellar signs and multisystem involvement, whereas, the known variant in COQ7 was associated with a mild phenotype that was initially diagnosed as hereditary spastic paraplegia (HSP). This variant has already been reported in a Canadian girl with similar presentations that also originated from Iran suggesting both patients may share a common ancestor. Due to extensive heterogeneity in this group of disorders, and overlap with other mitochondrial/neurological disorders, WES may be helpful to distinguish primary coenzyme Q10 deficiency from other similar conditions. Given that some features of primary coenzyme Q10 deficiency may improve with exogenous COQ10, early diagnosis is very important. © 2020 Wiley Periodicals LL
