Methods for overcoming seed dormancy in jimsonweed (Datura stramonium L.)
This study aimed to examine dormancy-breaking of jimsonweed seeds. Seeds were collected from Hamedan. They were subjected to different treatments: (a) concentrated sulfuric acid for 1, 1.5, and 2 min; (b) hot water at 80°C and 90°C for 5 and 10 min; (c) mechanical scarification with sandpaper; (d) light exposure for 10, 20, and 30 days; and (e) fluctuating temperature (5–15°C). The highest germ...
متن کاملOvercoming Winter Rest of Grapevine Grown in Subtropical Regions Using Dormancy-Breaking Agents
Although, grapevines do not have a high chilling requirement, its fulfillment is critical for normal development of the vines. In tropical and subtropical regions such as Farrashband, in the south of Iran, there is no adequate winter chilling to release bud dormancy in grapevines. So it is necessary to consider the effect of chemical dormancy–breaking agents on bud dormancy. In the present rese...
متن کاملApplication of myostatin in sheep breeding programs: A review
Myostatin or growth and differentiation factor 8 (GDF8), has been known as the factor causing double muscling phenotypes in which a series of mutations make the myostatin protein inactive, hence disabling it to regulate the deposition of muscle fibre. This phenotype happens with high frequency in a breed of sheep known as the Texel. Quantitative trait loci (QTL) studies show that a portion of t...
متن کاملMulti-substrate flavonol O-glucosyltransferases from strawberry (Fragaria×ananassa) achene and receptacle
In an effort to characterize fruit ripening-related genes functionally, two glucosyltransferases, FaGT6 and FaGT7, were cloned from a strawberry (Fragaria x ananassa) cDNA library and the full-length open reading frames were amplified by rapid amplification of cDNA ends. FaGT6 and FaGT7 were expressed heterologously as fusion proteins in Escherichia coli and target protein was purified using af...
متن کاملBreeding and biotechnology for improving the nutritional quality of strawberry
Traditional breeding is based on the identification of the most suitable genetic resources from either cultivated or wild germplasm. Starting from wild germplasm, progeny from strawberry crosses with F. virginiana glauca as a common parent have shown significant increases in fruit quality and nutritional features. This confirms the use of the wild species to improve several characteristics of c...
