Present study was designed to estimate the coagulation parameters like prothrombin time (PT) and activated partial thromboplastin time (APTT). In this study, coagulation parameters were compared in animals fed on low and high conc. of canola oil with that of canola supplemented with atherogenic element. For this purpose, sixty albino rats were selected and divided into five different groups wit...

Canola breeding program undertaken to improve meal quality has led to the development of canola quality (i.e., low glucosinolate, low erucic acid) form of B. juncea, a mustard species known for its pure yellow seed coat. Under Western Canadian conditions, B. juncea suffers less from heat and drought stress and matures earlier than B. napus, Such characteristics are the basis for high yields of ...

Canola (Brassica napus L. var. oleracea) is the third most common oil-producing crop worldwide after palm and soybean. cultivation requires use of chemical fertilizers, but amount required can be reduced by applying plant growth-promoting bacteria (PGPB). Among PGPB, endophytic have certain advantages as biofertilizers, canola rarely been studied. In this work, we identified a collection bacter...

rapeseed cultivation in iran is growing rapidly while this product has been facing specific problems. every year a significant portion of edible oil is imported to the country from other countries. despite this deficit, a great amount of canola is being lost every year. therefore, in compliance with technical points, adding a suitable platform to the exisiting machineries may reduce the losses....

Forage crop–dairy farming is an important agro-industry across the world. This system intensive with high-input forage crops. In United States (US) Southern Great Plains, based primarily on annual grass-type crops in monocropping approaches and requires diverse low-input broadleaf for strengthening its sustainability. Winter canola (Brassica napus L.) pea (Pisum sativum have potential to provid...

Omega-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids (n-3 PUFA) show beneficial effects in cardiovascular disease, IgA, and diabetic nephropathy; however, the mechanisms underlying these benefits are unknown. The study was performed in male Sprague-Dawley rats randomly divided into four treatment groups: nondiabetic (ND), streptozotocin-induced diabetic (D), diabetic and fed a high n-3 PUFA diet (D+canola), and...

alborz province with an area of about 5121.7 km2 has about 0.31% of the total area of the country. the total arable area of the province is about 48954 hectares. water, land and capital are the most important factors for agricultural production. by understanding the subjective beliefs, decision-making criteria and economic incentives of local farmers, the priority of crops can be achieved with ...

Solgi T., Moradyar M., Zamani M.R., Motallebi M. (2015): Transformation of canola by chit33 gene towards improving resistance to Sclerotinia sclerotiorum. Plant Protect. Sci., 51: 6–12. An endochitinase gene (chit33-cDNA) from the biocontrol fungus Trichoderma atroviride was overexpressed under the CaMV35S constitutive promoter in canola (R line Hyola 308). Transformation of cotyledonary petiol...

Field trials of transgenic crops may result in unintentional transgene flow to compatible crop, native, and weedy species. Hybridization outside crop fields may create novel forms with potential negative outcomes for wild and weedy plant populations. We report here the outcome of large outdoor mesocosm studies with canola (Brassica napus), transgenic canola, a sexually compatible weed B. rapa, ...
