Here we analyzed in leaves the effect of FT overexpression driven by meristem-specific KNAT1 gene homolog of Arabidopsis thaliana (Lincoln et al., 1994; Long et al., 1996) on the transcriptomic response during plant development. Our results demonstrated that meristematic FT overexpression generates a phenotype with an early flowering independent of photoperiod when compared with wild type (WT) ...

in order to investigate the impact of foliar zn application in reducing the negative effects of water stress on bean growth and yield, a field experiment was carried out in the research field of ilam university in 2011. the experiment was arranged in split factorial based on a randomized complete block design with three replications. the experimental factors were water stress including water wi...

Poa genus has a high value for grazing and forage conservation concerning thelivestock. In order to study the impacts of cold temperature and Growing Degree Days(GDD) on seedling morphological trait and phonological development of two speciesinvolving Poa pratensis and Poa trivialis, this research was conducted in laboratory andgreenhouse and outdoor of Research Institute of Forest and Rangelan...

the possible alleviating effects of salicylic acid on protection of cowpea (vigna unguiculata) cv. parastu under water stress conditions were investigated in the university of zanjan agriculture research station during 2008. water stress was imposed by withholding irrigation at 50% flowering (flowering water stress, fws) and when 50% of the pods grew 2-3cm (pod-formation water stress, pfws). sa...

oregano (origanum vulgare l.), a native plant from iran, belongs to lamiaceae family. this species is traditionally utilized as sedative, diuretic, sweater and antiseptic, it is also used to treat of gastrointestinal diseases and constipation. origanum species are widely used in spice industry. in this study, the essential oil of the aerial parts of a subspecies from this plant namely origanum ...

in order the the effect of biofertilizer and cut irrigation on growth of borage (borago officinalis) an experiment in split plot randomized based on complete block design with three replications in 1393 at the agricultural research station of roudehen islamic azad university done. treatments were first factor drought in four levels (control, stress at vegetative stage, stress at flowering stage...

Latex and cell-free extracts of various organs and stages of plant and capsule development in Papaver somniferum, the opium poppy, synthesized dopamine, an alkaloid precursor, from 14C-dopa. The 1000 g X 30 min supernatant from latex of the pedicel-capsule junction converted more dopa than latex supernatant from the upper capsule or lower pedicel regions, although there was more protein in the ...

  Background: Borage (Borago officinalis L.) is a valuable medicinal plant with a high content of gamma linolenic acid. It has an important place in Iranian traditional medicine. Although the aerial parts of this plant are extensively used in treatment of diseases, detailed knowledge of the active constituent changes in these parts is not readily available. In addition the most data that has be...
