In the present study, the acetyl cholinesterase inhibitory and butyryl cholinesterase inhibitory activities as well as the anti-oxidant and anti-tyrosinase effects of three Iranian Dracocephalum species (D. kotschyi,...

plant breeders use rye (secale cereale l.) as a foreign genetical resource tool in increasing wheat genetical variations. 1r chromosome and especially its short arm, 1rs has been introduced into wheat genome frequently. 1rs studies and effective selection is used in cytogenetical, chemicals techniques and dna markers. present study was conducted to investigate the presence of rye chromosome seg...

To produce a good F1 hybrid variety wheat crop, it is necessary to explore novel cytoplasmic male sterility (CMS) lines and their maintainer line. This study aimed to identify cytoplasmic variation in three isonuclear-alloplasmic male sterile lines Aegilops kotschyi (Ae.kots) -90-110, Aegilops ventricosa (Ae.ven) -90-110, and Triticum spelta (T.spelta) -90-110 and their maintainer line, A-90-11...
