BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE Modification of the root surface may play an important role in regenerating the periodontal attachment between the root and periodontal connective tissue. We speculated that bone morphogenetic protein (BMP) application to the root surface constructed a novel attachment by cementum-like hard tissue, although gingival connective tissue proliferated to the root surface. Th...

Metalaxyl significantly reduced population of Pratylenchus coffeae, Radopholus similis, and Tylenchulus semipenetrans in roots of Citrus limon (rough lemon) under greenhouse conditions. Postinoculation treatment of rough lemon seedlings was not as effective i n reducing nematode populations as was treatment before inoculation. Fewer nematodes infected metalaxyl-treated roots than nontreated roo...

This study investigated the formation and plant uptake of lipophilic metal-rhamnolipid complexes. Monorhamnosyl and dirhamnosyl rhamnolipids formed lipophilic complexes with copper (Cu), manganese (Mn), and zinc (Zn). Rhamnolipids significantly increased Zn absorption by Brassica napus var. Pinnacle roots in (65)Zn-spiked ice-cold solutions, compared with ZnSO4 alone. Therefore, rhamnolipid app...

Because excised, washed roots of rice (Oryza sativa) immediately produce CH4 when they are incubated under anoxic conditions (P. Frenzel and U. Bosse, FEMS Microbiol. Ecol. 21:25-36, 1996), we employed a culture-independent molecular approach to identify the methanogenic microbial community present on roots of rice plants. Archaeal small-subunit rRNA-encoding genes were amplified directly from ...

Cultivation and commercialization of Capsicum pepper have great importance in Brazil. This work assessed the influence omission macro micronutrients on growth mineral nutrition sweet plants (Capsicum chinense Jacquin). The research was carried out a greenhouse with washed sand as substrate. experimental design completely randomized five replications eight treatments: complete (control), N, P, K...

Abstract In this paper we study the properties of an algorithm, introduced in Browkin (Math Comput 70:1281–1292, 2000), for generating continued fractions field p -adic numbers $$\mathbb Q_p$$ Q p . First all, obtain analogue Galois’ Theorem classical fractions. Then, i...

BACKGROUND The goal of the current study was to describe the distribution and characteristics of malignancy related deaths among human immunodeficiency virus (HIV)-infected patients with use of data obtained from a national survey conducted in France in 2005 and to compare with results obtained from a similar survey conducted in 2000. METHOD The underlying cause of death was documented using ...

the mycorrhizal fungi are the most important micro-organism among the soil micro flora which via genetical, physiological and ecological changes lead to more yield in symbiotic plants.  the piriformospora indica sav. verma, aj. varma, rexer, g. kost & p. franken 1998, is one of well known endomycorrhizal fungus with different beneficial effects on diverse monocots (poaceae) and dicots (brassica...
