study of genetic relationships is a prerequisite for plant breeding activities as well as for conservation of genetic resources. in the present study, genetic diversity among and within 15 iranian native ajowan(carum copticum l.) populations were determined using inter simple sequence repeat (issr) markers. twelve selected primers produced 153 discernible bands, with 93 (60.78%) being polymorph...

The purpose of this study was to elucidate some factors affecting the growth of Salmonella typhimurium. These factors included Carum copticum essential oil (0%, 0.015%, 0.03% and 0.06%), temperature (25 ˚C and 35 ˚C), pH (5, 6 and 7) and inoculum size (103 and 105 CFU mL-1). Brain heart infusion broth was used as the growth medium. There were 48 treatment combinations and the experiment was car...

The present study evaluates the insecticidal activity of two essential Oil (EOs) mint (Mentha arvensis), and ajwain (Carum capyicum) against pulse beetle (Callosobruchus chinensis) (L). Contact toxicities these were evaluated using parameters lifecycle like total development period, numbers eggs laid, adult emergence longevity. Along with detoxification enzyme inhibition activities acetyl choli...
