Background: Various preventive actions are being developed to prevent dental caries. On the other hand, some of these methods can only be applied by dentist. Therefore, it is necessary find an alternative caries prevention method. Purpose: This study aimed determine antibacterial activity mango (Mangifera indica L.) leaves extract in inhibiting growth Streptococcus mutans. Methods: research exp...

MADS-box transcription factor plays a crucial role in plant development, especially controlling the formation and development of floral organs. Mango (Mangifera indica L) is an economically important fruit crop, but its molecular control of flowering is largely unknown. To better understand the molecular basis of flowering regulation in mango, we isolated and characterized the MiSOC1, a putativ...

Many people who suffer from seasonal inhal ant allergy in other sections of the United States, come to Florida to escape from offensive pollens at home, inasmuch as airborne pollen grains are commonly declared to be the princi pal exciting cause of such respiratory afflictions, and change of regional residence has in many cases brought relief (7). However, some vic tims who migrate to South Flo...

Objective: This is to evaluate the effect Mangifera indica effects on the liver. The fruit of Mangifera indica is a major source of food for man and animal. The leaf, root and stem bark are widely used for medicines. Mangifera indica is used medicinally to treat ailments such as asthma, cough, diarrhea, dysentery, leucorrhoea, jaundice, pains, malaria, diabetes, asthma, infertility, lupus, pros...

Abiotic factors influenced the capacity of the strains to form biofilms. Classification of the adhesion type is related with the optical density measured on the biofilm formation of tested strains. The relationship between the biofilm formation in real values with theoretical values of the strains was used to determine the mechanism involved during mixed cultures.

Rates of fruit drop and remaining fruited pan icles were monitored in the field for 96 days beginning on April 1, 1983. More than 90% of total fruit drop occurred within the first 4 wk, and final fruit set was 0.61%. Per centage of fruited panicles remained constant for the first 3 wk, decreasing sharply to 40% by the 6th week, and ending at 11.7% at harvest. Of the fruit which reached maturity...

MADS-box genes are a large family of transcription factors initially discovered for their role during development of flowers and fruits. The MADS-box transcription factors from animals have been studied by X-ray protein crystallography but those from plants remain to be studied. In this work, a MADS-box cDNA from mango encoding a protein of 254 residues was obtained and compared. Based on phylo...
