Ameliorative Impact of Glyphosate Herbicide Treatments on Dodder (Cuscuta campestris) Control in Nerium oleander L. Shrubs

biological control of dodder (cuscuta campestris l.) by fungi pathogens

parasite weeds are the most important yield reducing factors, and among them dodder (cuscuta campestris l.) is an obligate parasite of many plant families. in order to find a suitable biocontrol agent for dodder a study was conducted based on a randomized complete design with four replications at research greenhouse of faculty of agriculture, ferdowsi university of mashhad, iran during 2007-200...

Experimental oleander (Nerium oleander) intoxication in broiler chickens (Gallus gallus).

Dried leaves of oleander were orally given at a single dose of 500 mg/kg body weight to 20 clinically healthy male chickens. Clinical signs of toxicosis began to appear about 1 h after receiving the oleander and included hypersalivation, vomiting, diarrhea, deep depression, and sudden death. Also, hyperemia in the combs and wattles was obviously seen. Electrocardiograms (ECG) were repeatedly re...

Absorption of Formaldehyde by Oleander (Nerium indicum).

evaluation of alfalfa (medicago sativa l.) cultivars tolerance to dodder (cuscuta campestris l.)

weed chemical control has negative results on agroecosystems. therefore, identification of cultivars tolerant to weeds has importance in nonchemical management. so, in this study, the tolerance of some alfalfa cultivars was studied to dodder. anexperiment was conducted at research farm and laboratory of shahed university in 2011. the farm experiment was done as split plot in time in randomized ...

Phytochemical analysis & Antibacterial activity of Nerium oleander

Nerium indicum [Family:Apocynaceae] is commonly known as Arali [Tam] found throughout India, and has been used in the treatment of cancer, cardiotonic, leprosy and skin diseases. Plant parts such as root, bark and leaves are used. The present study is therefore undertaken to analyse its phyto chemical constituents in solvents like Benene, Chloroform and Alcohol and to screen its antibacterial a...
