Effects of Putrescine Application and Fruit Thinning on Fruit Development and Return Bloom of Olive cv. Fishomi Tokhme-Kabki

In order to investigate the effects of putrescine on growth and development of olive fruits an experiment was conducted on Olea europaea ‘Fishomi Tokhme‌‌-‌‌Kabki’ trees in 2017 and 2018.The treatments included control (normal fruits and shotberries), normal fruits, shotberries, normal fruits with putrescine at 3 and 6 mM and shotberries with putrescine at 3 and 6 mM were sprayed on uniform bra...

effect of seed priming and irrigation regimes on yield,yield components and quality of safflowers cultivars

این مطالعه در سال 1386-87 در آزمایشگاه و مزرعه پژوهشی دانشگاه صنعتی اصفهان به منظور تعیین مناسب ترین تیمار بذری و ارزیابی اثر پرایمینگ بر روی سه رقم گلرنگ تحت سه رژیم آبیاری انجام گرفت. برخی از مطالعات اثرات سودمند پرایمینگ بذر را بر روی گیاهان مختلف بررسی کرده اند اما در حال حاضر اطلاعات کمی در مورد خصوصیات مربوط به جوانه زنی، مراحل نموی، عملکرد و خصوصیات کمی و کیفی بذور تیمار شده ژنوتیپ های م...

Rootstock Breeding for Stone Fruits

Over the last 20 years stone fruit rootstock development has begun shifting from seedling to clonal types, many of interspecific origin. Publicly funded breeding programs have produced most of these rootstocks due to the time, cost, and risk associated with their development; however, private industry is emerging as a significant contributor of many of the newer rootstocks. Particularly notewor...

Gibberellins control fruit patterning in Arabidopsis thaliana.

The Arabidopsis basic helix-loop-helix (bHLH) proteins INDEHISCENT (IND) and ALCATRAZ (ALC) specify tissues required for fruit opening that have major roles in seed dispersal and plant domestication. Here, we show that synthesis of the phytohormone gibberellin is a direct and necessary target of IND, and that ALC interacts directly with DELLA repressors, which antagonize ALC function but are de...
