Changes in cell wall polysaccharides and mechanical properties of the cell wall were examined during IAA-induced elongation growth of excised azuki bean epicotyl segments under different growth conditions. Sucrose promoted IAA-induced cell elongation, but had very little effect on IAA-induced cell wall loosening. In the absence of sucrose, the amount of galactose in the cell wall decreased duri...

in order to optimize use of water resources with selection of suitable wheat genotype(s) and irrigation schedule, in this experiment, the effect of elimination of irrigation at terminal growth and development stages of five wheat genotypes was investigated in two successive growing seasons (2002-03 and 2003-04) in the agricultural research station of torogh mashhad. split plot experiments were ...

Several studies indicate that the hot season is lengthening at expense of intermediate seasons, and extreme events are becoming more intense spread out over time. What situation in a climate described as very hot? This work aims to examine evolution minimum maximum temperatures period from June September during 1951–2010 Bechar region, which classified among hottest world located south-west Alg...

NF-protocadherin (NFPC)-mediated cell-cell adhesion plays a critical role in vertebrate neural tube formation. NFPC is also expressed during the period of axon tract formation, but little is known about its function in axonogenesis. Here we have tested the role of NFPC and its cytosolic cofactor template-activating factor 1 (TAF1) in the emergence of the Xenopus retinotectal projection. NFPC is...

Soluble proteins from excised Phaseolus vulgaris axes incubated for 1 hour in (3)H or (14)C- amino acid mixtures at different times during the period leading up to initiation of cell elongation were compared by acrylamide gel electrophoresis. Differences in electrophoretic patterns were found when proteins from axes incubated during the 1st hour of imbibition were compared with proteins from ax...

We present a novel method for performing steady state nonequilibrium molecular dynamics simulation of planar elongation flow based on the studies of Kraynik and Reinelt @Int. J. Multiphase Flow 18, 1045 ~1992!#. These authors identified the orientation of the unit cell which leads to periodic behavior of the square lattice with the minimum period. This way the exponential deformation of the sys...

background: the adult female sand flies (diptera: psychodidae) of the subgenus larroussius are important vectors of leishmania infantum (kinetoplastida: tripanosomatidae) in meshkinshahr district, northwest of iran. four phle­boto­mus ( larroussius ) species are present in this area, i.e. phlebotomus ( larroussius ) kandelakii , p. ( la. ) major , p. ( la. ) perfiliewi and p. ( la. ) tobbi . th...

novel edible emulsified films were made using pistachio globulin protein (pgp) and palmitic fatty acid at concentrations of 2, 4, and 6 % w/w protein by tween-80 and homogenization technique. addition of palmitic acid to the pgp filmogenic solution resulted in great reduction of wvp in the emulsified films (37-40 %). concentration of palmitic acid did not create significant difference (p>0.05) ...

the effect of stationary liquid media to improve shoots elongation in date palm cv. najda and an in vitro pre-acclimatization stage to increase the survival ercentage of plantlets in the greenhouse was investigated. two basal liquid media were tested: full strength and half strength murashige and skoog medium (ms). media were devoid of plant growth regulators (pgrs), containing 0.5 mg/l 6-benzy...
