The aims of the present study were to determine the best time for egg stripping after ovulation and to study oocyte over-ripening in the Caspian brown trout (Salmo trutta caspius). Eggs were retained in the female abdominal cavity for 40 days post ovulation (DPO). Partial volumes of eggs stripped from 10 individually identified females at 10 days intervals and fertilized with a pool of semen ...

opium poppy (papaver somniferum l.) has two major products: alkaloids in the capsules and the seeds.  the seed contains oil, protein, carbohydrate, moisture and mineral matters. the seed oil is rich in unsaturated fatty acids, particularly linoleic and oleic acid. remaining meals after oil extraction are the important source for animal diets. the united nations recognize turkey and india as tra...

Iron is an essential micronutrient for plants. Little is know about how iron is loaded in embryo during seed development. In this article we used Perls/DAB staining in order to reveal iron localization at the cellular and subcellular levels in different Brassicaceae seed species. In dry seeds of Brassica napus, Nasturtium officinale, Lepidium sativum, Camelina sativa, and Brassica oleracea iron...

Seed protein concentration of commercial soybean cultivars calculated on a dry weight basis ranges from approximately 37 to 42% depending on genotype and location. A concerted research effort is ongoing to further increase protein concentration. Several soybean plant introductions (PI) are known to contain greater than 50% protein. These PIs are exploited by breeders to incorporate the high-pro...

Relevance. Modern plant growing technologies are associated with the use of nanoparticles for pre-sowing seed treatment. The article presents results studying effect treatment Pisum sativum seeds solutions iron and silicon nanooxides on germination, viability yield plants in conditions Southern Ural. Methods. For seeds, SiO 2 Fe 3 O 4 were used at a concentration 10 –2 , –3 –4 mg/l, as well sol...

Little is known about the expression of heme transporters in human placenta and possible associations between these transporters and maternal or neonatal iron status. To address this area of research, relative protein expression of 2 heme transporters, Feline Leukemia Virus, Subgroup C, Receptor 1 (FLVCR1) and Breast Cancer Resistance Protein (BCRP), was assessed using Western-blot analysis in ...

a field experiment was performed in order to evaluate the effects of irrigation and application of k fertilizer on seed storage proteins  in chickpea, ilc-482 cultivar. experiment was performed in factorial using randomized complete block design with three replications. in this experiment, two factor consist of irrigation in three levels (i1= non irrigation and i2= irrigation in flowering stage...
