in the recent years application of allelopathic effects in weeds managment have attracted the attention of many researchers. to study the effects of water extracts and various amount of plants powder of sinapis, achillea, salvia, artemisia and wanut leaf on seed germination and seedling growth of bean, two separate factorial experiments were carried out in completely randomized design, with 3 a...

The Effect of Magnetization Saline Water on Shoot Biomass, Chlorophyll Content, Total Phenol and Antioxidant Activity in Meadow Sage (Salvia virgata Jacq.)

WHEN certain typical plants, such as Cosmos (Cosmos bipinnatus), Salvia (Salvia splendens) and soybeans (Soja max) are exposed to a short photoperiod (7to 8-hour day) and a relatively long one (14to 15-hour day) they exhibit conspicuous differences in rate of growth, time of sexual reproduction and greenness of foliage. The short-day soybean plants, for instance, are lighter in color early in t...

Exposure to lead (Pb) can induce kidney injury and our recent studies have found that Salvia miltiorrhiza (SM) injection, a traditional Chinese medicine, could protect against the organ injury induced by iron overload. This study was designed to investigate the protective effects of SM injection on nephrotoxicity induced by Pb acetate in mice and to elucidate the potential mechanism(s). Healthy...

Salvia leriifolia (Lamiaceae) is an endemic endangered plant of Khorasan and Semnan province from Iran. Poor germination of seeds for this plant is a serious problem tomass production. The first step to improve this precious plant is to produce sterile plantlets in order to prepare explants of appropriate vigor. In this study, in vitro culture of Salvia leriifolia embryo was performed through a...

In this study, muscle-derived stem cells (MDSCs) whose differentiation into neuron-like cells was induced by ciliary neurotrophic factor (CNTF) and Salvia (Salvia miltiorrhiza) in vitro were used to repair rat sciatic nerve injuries in vivo, in order to investigate their multifunctional characteristics as pluripotent stem cells. The sciatic nerve in the right side of the lower limb was exposed ...

Both Salvia akiensis and S. lutescens (Lamiaceae) are endemic to Japan. Salvia akiensis was recently described in 2014 in the Chugoku (= SW Honshu) region, and each four varieties of S. lutescens distributed allopatrically. Among varieties in S. lutescens, var. intermedia show a disjunctive distribution in the Kanto (=E Honshu) and Kinki (= W Honshu) regions. Recent field studies of S. lutescen...
