Background and objectives: In India, Argemone mexicana is traditionally used against fever, wounds, worms and malaria. In Mali the efficacy and safety of “Sumafura Tiemoko Bengaly” an herbal tea based on A. mexicana aerial parts against malaria have been demonstrated. This study was aimed to investigate the pharmacognostic, physicochemical and phytochemical pa...

Fifteen, 1-year-old Populus maximowiczii Henry x P. nigra L. 'MN9' trees were decapitated and allowed to sprout. After 8 weeks, all had 6 to 10 coppice shoots. All shoots, except the tallest (dominant) shoot, were removed from five of the trees (pruned treatment), and shoot growth, gas exchange and carbohydrate status were compared in the pruned and unpruned trees. Although photosynthetic rate ...

Echinolaena inflexa (Poir.) Chase is an abundant C3 grass species with high biomass production in the Brazilian savanna (cerrado); Melinis minutiflora Beauv. is an African C4 forage grass widespread in cerrado and probably dis‐ placing some native herbaceous species. In the present work, we analysed seasonally the content and composition of soluble carbohydrates, the starch amounts and the abov...

Making an increase in the yield of agricultural plants including barely is considered as the main challenge for researchers in agriculture related sciences. Water-soluble carbohydrates transport and source–sink relations have a significant effect on the grain yield. This study was carried out in order to examine genotypic variation of storage and remobilization ability of carbohydrates in eight...

Biodiesel-derived glycerol is a promising substrate for mixotrophic cultivation of oleaginous microalgae, which can also reduce the cost of microalgal biodiesel. The objective of this study is to investigate the potential of using glycerol and glucose as a complex carbon substrate to produce microalgal biomass and biochemical components, such as photosynthetic pigments, lipids, soluble carbohyd...

Analysis of digestible carbohydrate such as free sugars and starch are important components of foods like cereals. The objective of this study was to assess the digestible carbohydrates in different branded basmati rice and in other popular cereal samples of local markets of twin cities of Secunderabad and Hyderabad. In the study, we determined carbohydrates that are digestible in the human upp...

The soybean (Glycine max l. merr) is one of oil seed plants from leguminous family. In this study, the effect of gamma radiation on chlorophyll, soluble and insoluble carbohydrate and composition oil seeds were investigated in soybean. Soybean variety J.K was irradiated with 0,100,200 and 300 gamma ray. The treatment and control seeds planed in with four replicates. The highest amount of total ...

In the present work, we analysed seasonally the content and composition of soluble carbohydrates, the starch amounts and the above-...

Considerable amounts of information is available on the complex carbohydrates that are mobilized and utilized by the seed to support early seedling development. These events occur after radicle has protruded from the seed. However, scarce information is available on the role of the endogenous soluble carbohydrates from the embryo in the first hours of germination. The present work analysed how ...

abstract a large number of studies have shown that direct application of rock phosphate dose do not have enough efficiency to release phosphorus compared to chemical fertilizers. the main purpose of this study was to increase the efficiency of direct application of rock phosphate. incorporation of rock phosphate with sulfur, organic matter and inoculation with sulfur-oxidizing bacteria and phos...
