The study was conducted at 10 – yearsold walnut orchard at Dr. Y. S. Parmar University of Horticulture and Forestry, Nauni-Solan(H.P.) to find out the effect of integrated nutrient management on leaf nutrient status of walnut (Juglans regia L.). There were 13 different treatment combinations of organic and inorganic fertilizers. Treatments were applied on per tree basis. Among the treatments re...

Indomethacin, an anti-inflammatory agent used for pain, fever and inflammation, causes severe lesions in the gastrointestinal tract humans animals. For this reason, there has been increase search new compounds that can help prevent and/or alleviate these caused by indomethacin. The aim of present study is to evaluate gastroprotective effect Juglans regia administration against indomethacin indu...

To better understand carbon (C) sequestration by Juglans regia L. plantations in karst regions of southwest China, this study examined biomass increment and C storage in four different-aged J. regia stands, as well as the distribution of carbon stock among the various ecosystem components. Tree and ecosystem biomass increased with stand age. Aboveground biomass (AGB) represented 64.79% of the t...

Antibiotic resistance continues to pose a significant problem in the management of bacterial infections, despite advances in antimicrobial chemotherapy and supportive care. Here, we suggest a simple, inexpensive, and easy-to-perform assay to screen antimicrobial compounds from natural products or synthetic chemical libraries for their potential to work in tandem with the available antibiotics a...

An analysis of genetic structure and differentiation in cultivated walnut (Juglans regia) using 15 microsatellite loci revealed a considerable amount of genetic variation with a mild genetic structure indicating five genetic groups corresponding to the centers of diversity within the home range of walnut in Eurasia. Despite the narrow genetic differentiation among groups accounting for only 10 ...

Walnuts (Juglans regia L.) are a major food crop in Beijing. Recently, walnut anthracnose has become serious problem plantations of Beijing, and the diversity pathogens that cause this disease is poorly understood, making targeted treatment difficult. This study investigated incidences seven districts Beijing (Changping, Fangshan, Haidian, Huairou, Mentougou, Miyun Pinggu). A total 377 isolates...
