violet is one of the ornamental plants with a good value in landscaping and herbal medicine. salicylic acid is a signaling agent involving in secondary metabolite production. the aim of this study was to evaluate the physiological responses of violet flowers to exogenous salicylic acid. this experiment was conducted in the greenhouse, as a completely randomized design. salicylic acid was spraye...

one of the effects of reducing water content on soil is reduction of growth and development of seedlings and variation of field development of them. it was found that seed priming improves some characteristics of seedling and plant. an experiment was conducted for evaluating the effect of seed priming by salicylic acid on some characteristics of barley seed at early growth stages, antioxidant e...

This experiment was conducted to study the effect of salicylic acid and methyl jasmonate as preharvest treatments on the tomato vegetative growth, yield and fruit quality. The experiment was completely randomized experimental design with four replications. These factors included salicylic acid in 2 levels (0.5 and 0.75 mmolL-1) and methyl jasmonate in 3 levels (0.25, 0.5 and 0.75 mmolL-1) appli...

The role of salicylic acid in Cd tolerance has attracted more attention recently but no information is available on the efficiency of different forms of salicylic acid. The aim was thus to investigate whether both the acid and salt forms of salicylic acid provide protection against Cd stress and to compare their mode of action. Young maize plants were grown under controlled environmental condit...

Exogenous exposure of coffee plants to 50 μM and 500 μM salicylic acid through liquid hydroponic medium or the exposure to volatile fumes of methyljasmonate was carried out to study the role of salicylic acid and methyljasmonate on the accumulation of caffeine and other methylxanthines like 7-methylxanthine, theobromine and theophylline. Transcript levels of the first, second and third N-methyl...

Arabidopsis (Arabidopsis thaliana) NADPH oxidases have been reported to suppress the spread of pathogen- and salicylic acid-induced cell death. Here, we present dual roles of RBOHD (for respiratory burst oxidase homolog D) in an Arabidopsis-Alternaria pathosystem, suggesting either initiation or prevention of cell death dependent on the distance from pathogen attack. Our data demonstrate that a...

BACKGROUND Plantar warts (verrucae) are extremely common. Although many will spontaneously disappear without treatment, treatment may be sought for a variety of reasons such as discomfort. There are a number of different treatments for cutaneous warts, with salicylic acid and cryotherapy using liquid nitrogen being two of the most common forms of treatment. To date, no full economic evaluation ...

Background: Medical plants production, including borago, is for maximum productivity from their effective ingredients’. Flowers, leaves and seed oil are medical parts of borago. Unfortunately, because of little breeding and domestication programs in medical plants, including borago, their establishments are usually slow. One of the effective techniques for solving this problem is seed priming. ...

A simple, precise and accurate RP-HPLC method has been described for estimation of niacinamide and salicylic acid in semi-solid dosage form. The separation is done by using column Oyster BDS C (250 mm × 4.6 mm) at 25°C and 74:26 (v/v) water: methanol as mobile phase at flow rate of 1 mL/min and pH adjusted to 3 with triethylamine and glacial acetic acid. Detection is carried out at 280 nm. The ...
