Background: Biotic and abiotic elicitors produce secondary metabolites and alter physiological traits of the plants by affecting some of the mechanisms within the plant cells. Objective: This study was aimed to investigate the effects of different concentrations of spherical nano-carbon and salicylic acid on physiological traits and paratolenolidae content in Feverfew. Methods: This research ...

a glasshouse experiment was conducted in universiti putra malaysia (upm) to evaluate the regeneration and yield potential in purslane using both seeds and stem cuttings of 20 collected accessions from different locations in western peninsular malaysia. analysis results revealed significant variations (p< 0.05) for morphological traits viz., plant height, number of main branches, number of nodes...

The effects of nitrogen (N) addition on productive and physiological traits of Triticumdicoccum were assessed under two N levels (0, unfertilized, and 90 kg N ha−1) in fieldconditions, in two growing seasons. In the study case, the N supply (90 kg N ha−1) was appliedin three-split applications (20% at pre-plant stage, 40% at tillering stage, 40% at stemelongation). In unfertilized conditions, t...

Summary As plant breeding is a very complex and sophisticated process, it of paramount importance to understand the nature magnitude interdependence between specific features. Using PCA correlation analysis, this study examined variability in features two types inbred sunflower lines determined its connection with their seed yields. The experiment was conducted as randomized complete block desi...

Agro-morphological characters in 34 populations of Iranian Trifolium resupinatum L. germplasm, were investigated. 24 traits for each accession evaluated according to white clover and forage legume descriptors. Data analyzed by SPSS Excel softwares. Statistical tendency parameters agro-morphological calculated. A cluster analysis based on morphological separate two different groups that one ther...

BACKGROUND AND AIMS Species' habitat affinities along environmental gradients should be determined by a combination of physiological (hard) and morpho-anatomical (soft) traits. Using a gradient of soil water availability, we address three questions: How well can we predict habitat affinities from hard traits, from soft traits, and from a combination of the two? How well can we predict species' ...
