a comparison of yield potential and cultivar performance of 20 collected purslane (portulaca oleracea l.) accessions employing seeds vs. stem cuttings

Effect of Salinity on Biomass Yield and Physiological and Stem-Root Anatomical Characteristics of Purslane (Portulaca oleracea L.) Accessions

13 selected purslane accessions were subjected to five salinity levels 0, 8, 16, 24, and 32 dS m(-1). Salinity effect was evaluated on the basis of biomass yield reduction, physiological attributes, and stem-root anatomical changes. Aggravated salinity stress caused significant (P < 0.05) reduction in all measured parameters and the highest salinity showed more detrimental effect compared to co...

Evaluation of Antioxidant Compounds, Antioxidant Activities, and Mineral Composition of 13 Collected Purslane (Portulaca oleracea L.) Accessions

The methanolic extracts of 13 accessions of purslane were analyzed for their total phenol content (TPC), total flavonoid contents (TFC), and total carotenoid contents (TCC) and antioxidant activity of extracts was screened using FRAP assay and DPPH radical scavenging methods. The TPC, TFC, and TCC ranged from 0.96 ± 0.04 to 9.12 ± 0.29 mg GAE/g DW, 0.13 ± 0.04 to 1.44 ± 0.08 mg RE/g DW, and 0.5...

Screening of Purslane (Portulaca oleracea L.) Accessions for High Salt Tolerance

Purslane (Portulaca oleracea L.) is an herbaceous leafy vegetable crop, comparatively more salt-tolerant than any other vegetables with high antioxidants, minerals, and vitamins. Salt-tolerant crop variety development is of importance due to inadequate cultivable land and escalating salinity together with population pressure. In this view a total of 25 purslane accessions were initially selecte...

Vegetative Reproduction Potential of Common Purslane (Portulaca oleracea)

Effect of Nitrogen Forms on Growth, Yield and Nitrate Accumulation of Cultivated Purslane (portulaca Oleracea L.)

KAYMAK, H. C., 2013. Effect of nitrogen forms on growth, yield and nitrate accumulation of cultivated purslane (portulaca oleracea l.). Bulg. J. Agric. Sci., 19: 444-449 The present investigation was carried out to determine not only the most appropriate nitrogen form but also the effect of these forms on growth, yield, element content and nitrate accumulation of cultivated purslane (portulaca ...

effect of salinity and silicon on seed yield and yield components of purslane )portulaca oleracea l.(

abstract in order to study the effects on salinity and silicon application on yield and yield components of purslane (portulaca oleracea l.), an experiment was conducted in a completely randomized desgin with three replications and two factors consisted of four different levels of salinity using nacl (0, 7, 14, 21ds/m) and two levels of silicon (application of one mmol sodium silicate and not a...
