Characterization and vector identification of phytoplasmas associated with cucumber and squash phyllody in Iran
Phytoplasmas associated with cucumber phyllody (CuP) and squash phyllody (SqP) in Yazd province of Iran were characterized by molecular analyses and biological studies. Orosius albicinctus leafhoppers testing positive for phytoplasma presence by polymerase chain reaction (PCR) successfully transmitted CuP and SqP phytoplasmas to healthy cucumber and squash plants. The phytoplasmas were also tra...
متن کاملSignificance and applications of sea cucumber
Sea cucumber is an important component of the food chain in temperate ecosystems and coral reefs and plays an important role as a poultry eater and has antiviral, anti-cancer and anti-tumor properties in addition to oral administration and in the pharmaceutical industry.

متن کاملFloral transmission of Erwinia tracheiphila by cucumber beetles in a wild Cucurbita pepo.
Cucumber beetles, Acalymma vittatum (F.) and Diabrotica undecipunctata howardi (Barber), are specialist herbivores of cucurbits and the vector of Erwinia tracheiphila (E.F. Smith) Holland, the causative agent of wilt disease. Cucumber beetles transmit E. tracheiphila when infected frass falls onto leaf wounds at the site of beetle feeding. We show that E. tracheiphila also can be transmitted vi...
متن کاملCan Adverse Effects of Acidity and Aluminum Toxicity Be Alleviated by Appropriate Rootstock Selection in Cucumber?
Low-pH and aluminum (Al) stresses are the major constraints that limit crop yield in acidic soils. Grafting vegetable elite cultivars onto appropriate rootstocks may represent an effective tool to improve crop tolerance to acidity and Al toxicity. Two greenhouse hydroponic experiments were performed to evaluate growth, yield, biomass production, chlorophyll index, electrolyte leakage, mineral c...
متن کاملIndoleacetaldehyde in Cucumber Seedlings 1
The presence of indoleacetaldehyde in cucumber (Cucumis sativus L.) cotyledons was demonstrated by thin layer chromatographic RF values in three solvent systems, by the formation and hydrolysis of a bisuulfte adduct, and by chemical reduction to indoleethanol and oxidation to indoleacetic acid. Bioasys indicated a minimum indoleacetaldebyde content in etiolated cotyledons of 0.7 lg per kg fresh...
