The recognition specificity of the pollen ligand of self-incompatibility (SP11/SCR) was investigated using Brassica rapa transgenic plants expressing SP11 transgenes, and SP11 of Raphanus sativus S-21 was found to have the same recognition specificity as that of B. rapa S-9. In a set of three S haplotypes, whose sequence identities of SP11 and SRK are fairly high, R. sativus S-6 showed the same...

As an aromatic and colorful plant of substantive taste, saffron (Crocus sativus L.) owes such properties of matter to growing class of the secondary metabolites derived from the carotenoids, apocarotenoids. Regarding the critical role of microRNAs in secondary metabolic synthesis and the limited number of identified miRNAs in C. sativus, on the other hand, one may see the point how the characte...

Abstract The aim of this study was to explore the antibacterial and antioxidant efficacy nickel oxide nanoparticles (NiO NPs). Raphanus sativus ( R. ) extract mediated NiO NPs were calcined at 100, 300, 600 900 ? in a muffle furnace for 3 h. increased intensity diffraction bands X-ray (XRD) spectrum suggest that degree crystallinity increases with increasing calcination temperature. desired ele...

Background: Continual exposure to the sun's ultraviolet radiation damages skin. Freckles are little brown patches that develop on skin after repeated sun exposure. Terminalia chebula and Cucumber Sativus extracts-infused water in oil (W/O) emulsion is created, has anti-freckle emollient effect. Methodology: Base with no extract formulation containing three different concentrations 4% of Chebula...

Stirring largely eliminated the greater effectiveness of Carbowax 6000 compared to mannitol in reducing cucumber (Cucumis sativus L.) hypocotyl section elongation. Stirring increased elongation in water but reduced elongation in growth regulator solution. Shrinkage of cells without plasmolysis in hypertonic Carbowax solutions indicates that Carbowax 6000 did not penetrate cell walls. Sections p...

Introduction In Italy, grasspea (Lathyrus sativus L.) is one of the least common grain legumes. Today, it is not included in the official statistics of Italy and its survival is due to the praiseworthy action of a small number of farmers in very limited areas of peninsular and insular centralsouthern Italy. Since the Second World War the sharp reduction in cultivation, similarly for other grain...

Triton X-100 solubilized chloroplast DNA but not nuclear DNA from a mixture of chloroplasts and nuclei. The buoyant density of chloroplast DNA was different from that of the satellite DNA in all of the species examined (Phaseolus coccineus, Cucumis sativus, Cucumis melo, Antirrhinum majus, Vicia faba, Oenothera fruiticosa youngii). Chloroplast DNA constituted between 4.3% and 0.25% of the total...

background and aims: crocus sativus is of medicinal plants possessing many beneficial effects in treatment of various disorders. this study aimed to overview the therapeutic effects of crocus sativus on the basis of reviews and systematic reviews. methods: computerized search of review articles was performed using pubmed, google scholar, scopus and web of science, medline database from 1996 to ...

the probability of cardiovascular diseases in diabetic patients increases due to hyperlipidemia. raphanus sativus is a traditional plant which is used to lower plasma lipid. the aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of aqueous extract of raphanus sativus on plasma glucose, triglyceride, and cholesterol in diabetic rats. for this purpose, 30 male rats were selected, maintained in standard...
