The temperate and herbaceous genus Vicia L. is a member of the legume tribe Fabeae of the subfamily Papilionoideae. The genus Vicia comprises 166 annual or perennial species distributed mainly in Europe, Asia, and North America, but also extending to the temperate regions of South America and tropical Africa. The use of simple sequence repeat (SSR) markers for Vicia species has not been investi...

The present investigation aims to study the intraspecific diversity of thirteen faba bean genotypes (Vicia faba L. 2n=12) and to determine some selection criteria for plant breeding. Five yield parameters were studied: plant height (H), branch number per plant (BN/Pl), pod number per plant (PN/Pl), seed number per pod (SN/P) and yield per plant (Y/Pl). With a few exceptions, significant variabi...

background: moringa peregrina (forssk.) fiori. is a small tree, which grows in south east of iran. the shoot and root of m. peregrina contain volatile oil which has several isothiocyanates. objective: to study the effect of salinity on volatile constituents of root and shoot of m. peregrina. methods: the experiment was conducted on randomized complete blocks design (rcbd) with 8 treatments and ...

Moringa is a genus with many applications; some of these applications can be linked to their use in traditional medicine and as source nutrients, traditionally, species have been used for water purification. Many studies conducted assess the different One that extensively studied M. Oleifera because its wide geographical distribution. There are limited on peregrina due distribution, it native A...

A method for determination of β-cyano-L-alanine, γ-glutamyl-β-cyano-L-alanine and other free amino acids in Vicia sativa is presented. Seed extracts were derivatized by reaction with diethyl ethoxymethylenemalonate and analyzed by reverse-phase high-performance liquid chromatography. Calibration curves showed very good linearity of the response. The limit of detection and quantification was 0.1...

Benthic foraminiferal faunas in a piston core from 3331 meters at 44 degrees N on the Mid-Atlantic Ridge show striking variations in the relative abundance of species. Uvigerina peregrina, which is broadly distributed today in the South Atlantic and in the Pacific in water that has been long isolated from the surface, is absent in the North and Equatorial Atlantic at depths occupied by highly o...
