Timing of seed dispersal in Daucus carota By: Elizabeth P. Lacey Lacey, E. P. (1982) Timing of seed dispersal in Daucus carota L. (Apiaceae)
This study describes the temporal pattern of seed dispersal in Daucus carota and examines the fate of seeds dispersed at different dates in SE Michigan. Plants varied greatly in both time of onset and rate of dispersal. Onset was directly related to flowering time, a phenotypically plastic character, and tended to occur earlier in newly established populations. Dispersal rate was similar for di...
متن کاملAnti-Dementia Potential of Daucus carota Seed Extract in Rats
Daucus carota Linn. commonly known as “carrot" belongs to the family Apiaceae (Umbelliferae) and is cultivated almost all over the world as a useful vegetable. Carrot is widely consumed as an aphrodisiac and nervine tonic and its scraped root is used as a local stimulant for indolent ulcers. In light of the above, the present study was undertaken to investigate the effects of D. carota seeds on...
متن کاملSeed Mortality in Daucus Carota Populations: Latitudinal Effects1 Elizabeth
Daucus carota, a common herbaceous weed, grows over a wide latitudinal range in eastern North America. Viability and germination tests of mature seeds collected from 36° to 45°N were conducted to measure predispersal seed mortality. Viability and germination declined as latitude of the seed source decreased. Only 30-50% of the seeds from southern populations germinated owing to high embryo invi...
متن کاملLowering of intraocular pressure by topical application of Daucus carota seed extract in rabbits.
In normotensive rabbits topical application of Daucus carota seed extract at the concentration of 0.3, 0.6 and 1.2% resulted in mean IOP reduction of 19.33. 23.20 and 25.61% respectively from baseline. As no significant difference was observed between the change in IOP in 0.6 and 1.2% extract treated groups, 0.6% concentration was chosen for further evaluation in rabbits with experimentally ele...
متن کاملIndigenous Production of Synthetic Seeds in Daucus Carota
Embryogenic callus culture of carrot (Daucus carota L.) was induced from the hypocotyl explants in MS medium supplemented with Casein hydrolysate, 2,4-D and BAP for somatic embryogenesis In vitro cell suspension cultures for high multiplication rate. Embryogenic callus was transferred to liquid basal Murashige and Skoog medium The mature somatic embryos were encapsulated in a Sodium alginate mi...
