Karrikins are a group of chemicals found in plant-derived smoke from burning plant material. Till now, scientists concentrated on their effect seed germination plants sensitive to smoke. However, there reports the karrikins physiology and morphology which do not occur fire areas naturally treated by These positively affect biometric parameters vitro cultured plants. Recently, rate pollen severa...

Feeding experiments with ent-kaurenoic acid (4), 15 alpha-hydroxy-ent-kaurenoic acid (5), 15 beta-hydroxy-ent-kaurenoic acid (6), and mixtures of 4 plus 5 and 4 plus 6 were conducted using the SG138 mutant of Gibberella fujikuroi, to gain information about the phenotype of this unique strain. The biotransformation of 5 gave 7 beta,15 alpha-dihydroxykaurenolide (9) and 7 beta,15 alpha-dihydroxy-...

glucocorticoid steroids are widely used as anti-inflammatory and immunosuppressive medications and are well known to induce osteoporosis. in present study 24 rats were randomly divided into four groups (n=6): group a (control), group b (sham)that was treated only by normal saline for 1 month.group c that was treated by methylprednisolone acetate alone (0.2 mg/kg) for 1 month. group d that was t...

To gain an enhanced understanding of the mechanism by which gibberellins (GAs) regulate the growth and development of plants, it is necessary to identify proteins regulated by GA. Proteome analysis techniques have been applied as a direct, effective, and reliable tool in differential protein expressions. In previous studies, sixteen proteins showed differences in accumulation levels as a result...
