studying the physiological responses of linseed genotypes to water deficit stress may be helpful in recognizing the linseed resistance mechanisms to the latter stress factors. therefore, a split plot rcbd field experiment was conducted with three replications to explain interrelations of leaf chlorophyll, proline and soluble carbohydrates content and grain yield of six linseed genotypes under t...

To evaluate the relevance of a simple carbon balance model (Seginer et al., 1994, Scientia Horticulturae 60: 55-80) in source-limiting conditions, the dynamics of growth, respiration and carbohydrate reserves of tomato plants were observed in prolonged darkness. Four days prior to the experiments, plants were exposed to high or low light levels and CO(2) concentrations. The concentration of car...

Indonesia was classified as an agricultural country and the potential in cultivation includes plantation crops, horticulture, food crops others. Eggplant plants were easy to grow liked by public because of their delicious taste high nutritional value various types, namely Dutch eggplant, purple sparrow eggplant The purpose research study proximate content fresh dried leaves, especially found Mo...

Primulina eburnea, a plant with longstanding history of traditional medicinal use, has emerged as novel calcium-rich vegetable characterized by remarkable abundance soluble and bioavailable calcium within its leaves. However, most the metabolites produced P. eburnea have not been identified, few studies addressed accumulation nutritional ingredients during leaf development. In present study, we...

To investigate the proposed molecular characteristics of sugar-mediated repression of photosynthetic genes during plant acclimation to elevated CO2, we examined the relationship between the accumulation and metabolism of nonstructural carbohydrates and changes in ribulose-1,5-bisphosphate carboxylase/oxygenase (Rubisco) gene expression in leaves of Arabidopsis thaliana exposed to elevated CO2. ...

introduction   heavy metal contamination has disastrous effects on plant productivity and threatens human and animal health. among metals, cadmium (cd) is commonly released into the environment from industrial processes. cd is known to cause cellular damage in plants by producing oxidative stress via the over-production of reactive oxygen species (ros). to combat oxidative damage, plants have d...
