abstract an investigation was performed in a commercial orchard in shiraz to study the effect of time of application of cuso4 and streptomycin on quality and seedlessness of grapevine (vitis vinifera l. cv. ‘siyah-e-shiraz’). the experiment was conducted as completely randomized block design with 3 replications. plants were treated with 25 mgl-1 cuso4. 5h2o and 200mgl-1 streptomycin 2,4 and 6 d...

dormancy breaking of field maple (acer campestre l.) seed, by gibberllic acid (ga3) at 0, 250, 500 and 1000 ppm in 24 and 48 hours and stratification treatments in moist sand under warm (18-20 °c) and cold (2-4°c) conditions were investigated. effects of ga3 and stratification and their interaction on germination percent (gp) and germination speed (gs) were significant. the highest gp occurred ...

Cucumis melo L. is one of the most economically important horticultural crops worldwide. However,   low plant regeneration frequency of this plant during genetic transformation is  the  major hurdle for  applying biotechnological approaches. Hence, this study aimed to evaluate the effect of 6-benzyladenine (BA), cefotaxime (CTX), kanamycin (KAN), and indole-3-acetic acid (IAA) on the regenerati...

Gibberellins act to overcome dormancy and increase the germination rate of seeds several species, including genus Annona. Considering that Annona have a high lipid content few sugars, degradation such reserves from application gibberellins has not been described so far. This study aimed evaluate how different gibberellic acid (GA3) concentrations acts on sugar pattern during atemoya (Annona x M...

an efficient method for producing doubled haploid plants of date palm ( phoenix dactylifera l.) was established using in vitro colchicine treatment of anthers. to this study male inflorescences were harvested in the appropriate developmental stage. separated anthers after one day cold (4°c) pretreatment, in uninucleate stage of microspore were transferred to the modified y 3 medium containing d...
