Lf, E, Sn, and Hr are major loci that condition the flowering and photoperiod responses of Pisum sativum L. Genetic lines containing the dominant alleles of these loci are characterized by flowering in long days, but having a prolonged (>50 node) vegetative phase in short days. A representative of this class, response type G, was used as a receptor in short days for donors of other flowering re...

This study investigates the impact of wastewater irrigation on soil–plant–water system at vegetative, flowering, and reproductive stages Phragmites australis for two four days (in each stage) in coastal saline area Urmia Lake. The concentrations potentially toxic elements were detected irrigated water, soil, plant (aboveground belowground) tissues, transfer factor bioaccumulation calculated. sh...

in arid and semi arid, seedling emergence and establishment are key stages for final plant density in chickpea production. drought stress, especially at the end of the growing season, is one of the factors which decrease a main part of chickpea grain yield in these areas. therefore the aims of this study were assess to the effects of hydro priming and hormonal priming by gibberellin and abscisi...

background : electromagnetic fields are associated with production, transmission and use of electricity. in this  tudy we have investigated the effects of short and long time alternative magnetic fields' (amf, 50 hz) exposure on the secretion of hypothalamic-pituitary-gonadal axis in the male rats. methods : forty eight wistar male rats, same range of age and weight were divided into four group...

Although multiple environmental cues regulate the transition to flowering in Arabidopsis thaliana, previous studies have suggested that wild A. thaliana accessions fall primarily into two classes, distinguished by their requirement for vernalization (extended winter-like temperatures), which enables rapid flowering under long days. Much of the difference in vernalization response is apparently ...

abstract in order to study of two hormones effects of gibberellin and benzyl adenine on (zantedeschia aethiopica cv.childsiana) pot plant characteristics, non dormant rhizomes dipped preplanting in gibberellin solution with concentrations including (0, 100, 200 and 500 ppm) and sprayed in two weeks once to flowering time with benzyl adenine solutions including (0, 100, 200 and 500 ppm). interac...

To investigate the genetic basis of maize adaptation to temperate climate, collections of 375 inbred lines and 275 landraces, representative of American and European diversity, were evaluated for flowering time under short- and long-day conditions. The inbred line collection was genotyped for 55 genomewide simple sequence repeat (SSR) markers. Comparison of inbred line population structure with...

in order to evaluate phenological characteristics, yield and yield components of 18 cold tolerant lentil genotypes in fall planting under supplementary irrigation, an experiment was carried out based on randomized complete block design in 2006-2007 at research farm of college of agriculture, ferdowsi university of mashhad. irrigation was performed three times: immediately after sowing, 20 days ...
