interactive effect of plant growth regulators6-benzylaminopurine (bap) (0, 2, 4 and 8 µm) and1-naphtalene acetic acid (naa) (0, 0.05, 0.25 and 0.5µm) in van der salm (vs) medium was used to optimize in vitro propagation of rosa hybrida cv. iceberg.shoot proliferation and number of new leaves weremeasured as growth indicators. as the concentrationof bap was raised, growth rate increased with all...

This study is attempted to compare the number of rings and circular scales that are formed during various ages on Liza saliens. Sampling was carried out monthly during 2012-2013 using beach sine fishing nets. 102 specimens of different sizes were collected and transferred to the laboratory in boxes containing ice. The age of fish was determined by the number of annual rings as well as, the numb...

In order to evaluate responses of a pistachio seedling rootstock (Pistacia vera L. cv. Ghazvini) to NaCl induced salinity stress and potential protective role of exogenous spermine and spermidine on NaCl induced salinity stress, a greenhouse experiment was conducted during growing season of 2009. The NaCl treatments, involving 800, 1600, and 3200 mg NaCl per Kg of soil for 90 days, suppressed g...

The effect of water deficit on carbohydrate status and enzymes of carbohydrate metabolism (alpha and beta amylases, sucrose phosphate synthase, sucrose synthase, acid and alkaline invertases) in wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) was investigated in the seedlings of drought-sensitive (PBW 343) and drought-tolerant (C 306) cultivars. The water deficit was induced by adding 6% mannitol (water potential...

artemisia annua is a medicinal annual herb that widely distributed in asia, europ, north america, and also is grown in north reagions of iran. in this study, variation in the quantity and quality of the essential oil of a.annua apical shoots at different developmental stages including vegetative, early flower opening and full flowering stages is reported. the obtained oils by hydrodistilation o...

Gravity variation effects on plants provide definite changes. Normal Earth gravity (1G) and microgravity (µg) are possible variations for experimental purposes. On-board spaceflight experiments rare expensive, as the environment is an outstanding platform research, application education. A Clinostat was used ground-based to investigate shoot morphology of maize at Space Agency Nigeria—National ...
