Phenotypic plasticity of Capsella bursa-pastoris (Brassicaceae) and its effect on fitness in response to temperature and soil moisture

Evolution of Flowering Time in the Tetraploid Capsella bursa-pastoris (Brassicaceae)

Differential expression of genes important for adaptation in Capsella bursa-pastoris (Brassicaceae).

Understanding the genetic basis of natural variation is of primary interest for evolutionary studies of adaptation. In Capsella bursa-pastoris, a close relative of Arabidopsis (Arabidopsis thaliana), variation in flowering time is correlated with latitude, suggestive of an adaptation to photoperiod. To identify pathways regulating natural flowering time variation in C. bursa-pastoris, we have s...

Perspective Research Progress in Cold Responses of Capsella bursa-pastoris

Plants respond to cold stress by modulating biochemical pathways and array of molecular events. Plant morphology is also affected by the onset of cold conditions culminating at repression in growth as well as yield reduction. As a preventive measure, cascades of complex signal transduction pathways are employed that permit plants to endure freezing or chilling periods. The signaling pathways an...

effect of bataine and sulphate supplement on wool and milk characteristics and lambs performance in naine ewes

تعداد 20 رأس میش نژاد نائینی 6+-24 ماهه، با میانگین وزن 2/3-+40 کیلوگرم، همراه با 20 رأس بره های آنها در قالب طرح کاملا تصادفی اثر بتائین و مکمل سولفات بر خصوصیات شیر و پشم و عملکرد بره ها بررسی شد. میش ها بطور تصادفی در چهار تیمار قرار گرفتند. تیمارها عبارت بودند از: 1-گروه شاهد 2-بتائین (05/0 درصد ماده خشک) 3-سولفات (24/0 سولفور درصد ماده خشک 4-بتائین هرماه با سولفات. جیره غذائی طبق nrc با مح...

Inhibitory effect of Capsella bursa-pastoris extract on growth of Ehrlich solid tumor in mice.

The treatment of ICR mice with i.p. injections (0.14 g/kg/day) of the extract of Capsella bursa-pastoris herb (Cruciferae) caused 50 to 80% inhibition of the solid growth of Ehrlich tumor cells that had been inoculated into the s.c. tissue of the animals. The tumor lumps in the treated mice showed multifocal necroses and the infiltartion of host fibrous tissue cells. Experiments were also perfo...
