This study describes the effects of different stocking densities on texture/colour characteristics, protein content /amino acid and lipid content/fatty acid composition of rainbow trout fillet. Stocking density was selected 5 (Group A), 15 (Group B), 25 (Group C) kg fish m−3. Tukey’s Multiple Comparison Test showed insignificant differences between measured size/weight measurement and condition f...

INTRODUCTION Acyl carrier protein (ACP) is the central cofactor in plastid fatty acid synthesis (1) and in addition participates in desaturation (2) and acyl transfer reactions (3). In spinach mesophyll cells this protein is localized in the ch1orop1asts (4). In deve1opi ng soybean seeds the 1eve1s of acyl carri er protein are closely related to the rates of in Y..i.Y2. production of storage li...

Tuberose (Polianthes tuberosa L.) is one of the most important cut flowers in Iran. This research was conducted to investigate the effects of spraying a mixture of amino acids on the physiological and morphological characteristics of tuberose. The experiment was carried out in two successive years (2009 and 2010) using two tuberose cultivars ‘Dezfuli’ and ‘Mahallati’. The experiment was arrange...
