The olfactory and respiratory mucosae of the Corriedale sheep were examined using lectin histochemistry in order to clarify the histochemical and glycohistochemical differences between these two tissues. The olfactory epithelium was stained with 13 lectins out of 21 lectins examined, while the respiratory epithelium was positive to 16 lectins. The free border of both of the olfactory and respir...

The enzymes, cr-galactosidase, P-galactosidase, a-mannosidase, P-glucosidase, and p-acetylglucosaminidase, have been purified from the germinating seeds of Phaseolus vulgaris. All five enzymes have been simultaneously isolated in a highly active form. The pH optimum, K,,,, and energy of activation of each glycosidase for the reaction of hydrolysis of the appropriate P-nitrophenyl glycoside have...

The evaluation of biochemical markers is important for the understanding of the mechanisms of tolerance to salinity of Phaseolus beans. We have evaluated several growth parameters in young plants of three Phaseolus vulgaris cultivars subjected to four salinity levels (0, 50, 100, and 150 mM NaCl); one cultivar of P. coccineus, a closely related species reported as more salt tolerant than common...

fusarium solani wasisolated from diseased roots of common bean (phaseolus vulgaris) grown in fields which were severely infected with fusarium root rot of bean in markazi province of iran. specific pcr primer pairs were used for the identification and verification of f. solani (mart.) f.sp. phaseoli (burkholder) w.c. snyder and n.h. hans. spore suspensions of f. solani f.sp. phaseoli were subje...

Phaseolus vulgaris L. (Fabaceae) forms symbioses with arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF) and nitrogen-fixing rhizobia (NFB). The tripartite relationship uses molecular singals to establish intracellular in roots. goal of this study was determine if Rhizobium tropici CIAT 899 exogenous riboflavin (vitamin B2) have an effect on AMF species selection root colonization P. vulgaris. Using SSU rRNA f...

The host suitability of diverse races and gene pools of common bean (Phaseolus vulgaris) for multiple isolates of Heterodera glycines was studied. Twenty P. vulgaris genotypes, representing three of the six races within the two major germplasm pools, were tested in greenhouse experiments to determine their host suitability to five H. glycines isolates. Phaseolus vulgaris genotypes differed in t...
