    Dear Sir/Madam,
    I am Leila Doleh, I have MSc degree of Pomology from Guilan University, Iran. I studied postharvest, my thesis was about relationship between the content of Ascorbic acid, Peroxidase and total Phenolic compounds and incidence of postharvest physiological disorders in 9 local and foreign cultivars of pears. The second objective of my research was determining the relationship between these biochemical characteristic factors of fruit especially Peroxidase activity and resistance to the disease for using as a biochemical marker in breeding program for Fire blight.
    I am highly motivated to up grade my knowledge in Pomology and very interested in continuing my study and research in PhD, but financial aid is my primary concern and i am looking for a full-scholarship across. Are there opportunities to take loans or offset some of the costs by working and studying at the same time? I will pay the scholarship back to the school after completing my graduate study and finding a job so that another student may take my place….
    I would be much thankful if I could have this opportunity to study PhD abroad. I apologize for any inconvenience this may cause.
    I’m looking forward to hearing from you
    With regards
    Leila Doleh
