This paper documents the key anatomical features during the development of P. armeniacum zygotic embryos and their ability to germinate asymbiotically in vitro. This study also examines the effect of media and seed pretreatments on seed germination and subsequent seedling growth. Seeds collected from pods 45 days after pollination (DAP) did not germinate while 95 DAP seeds displayed the highest...

Magnolia wufengensis, a rare ornamental tree species, is now in huge gap between market demand and actual supply of seedlings. As cutting propagation one the most important means to solve shortage seedling supply, this study developed an efficient procedure M. revealed morphological histological changes adventitious root formation, explored rhythm correlation rooting process physiological bioch...

Fifteen salt tolerant CIP (International Potato Centre) Potato genotypes along with BARI (Bangladesh Agricultural Research Institute) Alu 7 (Diamant) and one local variety viz., Dohazari Sada were evaluated at Bashkhali, Chittagong during 2011-12 to screen the suitable genotypes for cultivation in saline areas of Bangladesh. Diamant and Dohazari Sada and all of the CIP genotypes were found to g...

Longleaf pine (Pinus palustris) seedlings were cultured with air lateral root pruning (side-vented containers, VT) or without (solid-walled containers, SW). Seedling root system morphology and growth were assessed before planting and 8 and 14 months after planting. Although VT seedlings had greater root collar diameter than the SW before planting, seedling height and ground line diameter were n...

Laundry detergent containing anionic surfactants was used to test their effects on plant growth through irrigation water. Lettuce and okra were cultivated in pot experiment and irrigated with distilled water containing domestic detergent at three different concentrations: low concentration (LC) of 0.1 g L-1; normal concentration (NC) of 1.0 g L-1 and high concentration (HC) of 5.0 g L-1 and dis...

BACKGROUND Advancement of ventricular activation by an atrial premature beat (APB) given during His bundle refractoriness followed by resetting of an antidromic tachycardia (AT) in patients with decrementally conducting accessory pathway (DAP) is a helpful maneuver to prove pathway existence and participation in the circuit. We aim to assess in a large cohort the role of APB during AT in patien...
