Objective: Ageing of the stored seed is a natural phenomenon and the seeds tend to lose viability even under ideal storage conditions. Accelerated ageing has been recognized as a good predictor of the storability of seed lots. Aged seeds show decreased vigor and produce weak seedlings that are unable to survive once reintroduced into a habitat. The characteristics of the chemical composition of...

it is not clear what factors determine divergent outcomes of infections caused by h. pylori . in the present study, the protein profiles of different strains of h. pylori, isolated from three groups of patients with ulcerative disease, non-ulcerative gastritis and cancer disease, were analyzed using 1dsds-page. the patterns of different h. pylori strains were highly divergent. about 30.76% (7 b...

copper is most toxic metal in marine organisms. characterization of protein occurring in the metabolically active tissues of muscle (mu), hepatopancreas (hp) and gills (gl) of the spiny lobster, panulirus homarus homarus on exposure to two sub-lethal doses (9.55 and 19.1 µg/l) of copper were studied for 28 days of exposure (doe). the electrophoretic pattern of muscle, hepatopancreas and gill pr...

Pistachio is one of the most important agricultural products that have always been associated with Iran, and its production has a long historical background in our country. In this research, protein patterns of 10 cultivars of Pistacia vera L. were compared in which cultivars grown in normal conditions where compared with cultivars grown in salinity and water shortage to determine diversity. Fo...

HIGHLIGHTS Rhizobacteria (Azotobacter spp.) have improved the quality and quantity of safflower seed protein.Protein quality was confirmed by SDS-PAGE and new bands were found in response to different combinations of rhizobacteria and lower doses of fertilizers.The PGPR application has reduced the use of fertilizers upto 50%. Protein is an essential part of the human diet. The aim of this prese...

Brachypodium distachyon, a small annual grass with seed storage globulins as primary protein reserves was used in our study to analyse the toxic nature of non-prolamin seed storage proteins related to celiac disease. The main storage proteins of B. distachyon are the 7S globulin type proteins and the 11S, 12S seed storage globulins similar to oat and rice. Immunoblot analyses using serum sample...

Soybean (Glycine max) plants accumulate a vacuolar glycoprotein in the parenchymal cells of leaves, petioles, stems, seed pods, and germinating cotyledons that acts in temporary nitrogen storage during vegetative growth. In situ immunolocalization of this vegetative storage protein (VSP) revealed that it accumulates in those parenchymal cells in close proximity to existing and developing vascul...

to enhance germplasms of bread wheat, a gene, encoding the smallest y-type high molecular weight glutenin subunit (hmw gs) gene (12.4t) from the d-genome using synthetic hexaploid approach was introgressed into bread wheat. tetraploid wheat (t. turgidum cv. langdon) was crossed with t. tauschii accession aus24092. immature embryos were rescued and placed onto b5 regeneration media. hybrid f1 pl...
