Infeksi yang disebabkan oleh bakteri Pseudomonas aeruginosa menjadi salah satu penyebab penyakit nosokomial. Potensi bahan alam seperti bunga lili belum banyak digali, komponen minyak atsiri memiliki kandungan benzaldehid, linalol, simen, borneol dan osimen dapat bereaksi dengan dinding sel menyebabkan kerusakan bakteri. Tujuan penelitian ini ialah untuk mengetahui potensi (Lilium auratum) dala...

Using the sequence information on a class of recA-like genes, which have been isolated from meiosis-specific cDNA libraries of Lilium and budding yeast and identified in various plant cells, a new gene was screened from a mouse testis cDNA library. The putative product of the gene, termed MmLim15, was 37.8 kDa consisting of 340 amino acid residues. The predicted amino acid sequence showed 72-78...

Based on a recent hypothesis, "Five same genomes of endosperm are essential for its development in Lilium", it is expected that allotriploid lily (OTO) can be hybridized with diploid Oriental lily (OO) for introgression breeding in Lilium L.. To test the hypothesis, OTO lilies, 'Belladonna', 'Candy Club' and 'Travatore', were used as the maternal parents and crossed with two diploid OO cultivar...

Quantitative real-time PCR (qRT-PCR) is a reliable and high-throughput technique for gene expression studies, but its accuracy depends on the expression stability of reference genes. To date, several reliable reference gene identifications have been reported in Lilium spp., but none has been obtained for lily tepals at different developmental stages. In this study, ten candidate reference genes...

The indoor air quality is much more matter of concern as relative to ambient or outdoor air quality, especially in the context of human health.  However, very few studies have been reported for remediation of indoor ozone by plant species. The main objective of this study is to evaluate ozone deposition velocities and ozone removal effectiveness of three indoor ornamental plant species (Dra...

The hormone responsible for the swelling of the ovraries of tobacco has been identified as indoleacetic acid (5). Indoleacetic acid (IAA) is probably the active principle responsible for the growth of strawberry receptacles (14). The biosynthesis of this compound has been studied and demonstrated in many plants and plant parts (3). Wildman, Ferri, and Bonner (21) were the first to suggest trypt...
