In a foothill zone of Kabardino-Balkar Republic in 2018-2020 researches on identification the most effective preparations crops sunflower were conducted. As objects research hybrids Donskoy 22 F1 served. 342 and EU Muse. The following used: Albite, Polidon Biot Olive. Use Albite Olive positively influences viability seeds, duration vegetative period, crop quality sunflower. analysis conducted s...

The physiochemical characteristics and lipid composition in fast and slow germinating sunflower (Helianthus annuus L.) seeds were studied. The quantity of phospholipids, glycolipids and sterols in cotyledons and embryonic axes in fast germinating seeds (FG embryo emerged within 24 h after sowing) increased progressively between the 1st 6th days after sowing (DAS) compared with the slow growing ...

More people feed birds and other wildlife than hunt and fish combined. Despite its popularity, many bird-feeding traditions lack scientific data. We examined seed and feeder use by wild birds in the United States and Canada, and how seed use may change by season and geographic region. Between 2005 and 2008, 173 individuals from 38 states and 3 provinces in Canada made 20,077, 45-minute observat...

This paper reports the Ku band (1318GHz) response of thick film equilateral triangle microstrip patch antenna to moisture laden sunflower (Helianthus Annuus) seeds using overlay technique. From the frequency response the moisture dependent microwave permittivity has been reported. The thick film patch antenna is sensitive even to ~ 4.25% moisture content in the overlay material. The actual mois...

Skilled movements are voluntary movements requiring irregular motor patterns. Skilled movements are characterized by a complex sequence of movement components, which can be observed in rats eating specialty food items, such as sunflower seeds or crickets, or when navigating across difficult territory [5]. Tests of skilled movement are of increasing importance as sensitive assessment tools for r...

Forty midlactation Holstein cows averaging 635 kg of body weight (SE = 8) were allotted at wk 25 of lactation to ten groups of four cows blocked for similar calving dates to determine the effects of formaldehyde treatment of flaxseed and sunflower seed on fatty acid composition of blood and milk, milk yield, feed intake, and apparent digestibility. Cows were fed a total mixed diet based on gras...

biofertilizer is a substance which contains living microorganisms which can use instead of chemical fertilizer in sustainable crop production. the effects of phosphate solubilizing bacteria; root endophytic fungi (ef) piriformospora indica, and arbuscular mycorrhizal fungus (amf) glomus mosseae on growth and nutrient uptake of sunflower plants grown in mixture with two clover species, persian c...

Sunflower oil, with more than 0.9 of tocopherols in the alpha-tocopherol form, supplies more vitamin E than any other vegetable oil. Thus far, no breeding to increase vitamin E levels in sunflower seeds has been conducted. The objective of the present research was to develop sunflower lines with high and low total seed tocopherol content through evaluation and subsequent selection of a large ge...

The role of mitochondria in the phosphorylation of ADP to ATP in the early steps of seed germination has been studied. Mitochondria were extracted from dry sunflower (Helianthus annuus) seeds. Adenylate kinase-dependent ATP synthesis was inhibited by p(1),p(5)-di(adenosine-5')pentaphosphate. Synthesis of ATP was observed with the different substrates: citrate, alpha-ketoglutarate, succinate, ma...

Enterobacter cloacae A-11 is a transposon mutant of strain 501R3 that was deficient in cucumber spermosphere colonization and in the utilization of certain carbohydrates (D. P. Roberts, C. J. Sheets, and J. S. Hartung, Can. J. Microbiol. 38:1128-1134, 1992). In vitro growth of strain A-11 was reduced or deficient on most carbohydrates that supported growth of strain 501R3 but was unaffected on ...
