Drought-induced changes in two-dimensional silver stained protein patterns of Brassica napus L. var. oleifera M. root system were detected both at quantitative and qualitative levels. Particularly, 13 new polypeptides of low molecular weight were evidenced in the drought-stressed tap root, 12 of which were also present in the short tuberized roots, a specific drought-induced root type. The reve...

Root phenotyping provides trait information for plant breeding. A shortcoming of high-throughput root phenotyping is the limitation to seedling plants and failure to make inferences on mature root systems. We suggest root system architecture (RSA) models to predict mature root traits and overcome the inference problem. Sixteen pea genotypes were phenotyped in (i) seedling (Petri dishes) and (ii...

Cultivated soybean (Glycine max L.) cv. Dunbar (PI 552538) and wild G. soja (PI 326582A) exhibited significant differences in root architecture and root-related traits. In this study, phenotypic variability for root traits among 251 BC2F5 backcross inbred lines (BILs) developed from the cross Dunbar/PI 326582A were identified. The root systems of the parents and BILs were evaluated in controlle...

in order to evaluate the effect of some qualitative traits of sugar beet (beta vulgaris l.) under irrigation water quality and different types of fertilizers, a field experiment arranged as split plot in rcbd design with three replications at research station of shahrekord university in 2013. the main factor include irrigation with urban wastewater at 2-4 leaf stage, 8-12 leaf stage and irrigat...

this research was conducted to compare plant functional types (pft) and traits in an old-field (abandoned for 28 years) and a control site, in the baharkish rangelands, quchan, iran. in the both sites, 40 randomized quadrates were established. floristic list, frequency, canopy cover and 20 vegetative, phenological and morphological plant traits were measured for all plant species, within each q...

Differential two-dimensional protein patterns as related to tissue specificity and water conditions were investigated within Brassica napus var oleifera root system. The different parts of the root system (tap root, lateral roots, and drought-induced short roots) were analyzed under various moisture regimes (regular watering at field capacity, progressive drought stress, and rewatering). Tissue...

Background and aims. Triple antibiotic paste (TAP) is widely used in endodontics for root canal disinfection, particularly in regenerative procedures. The aim of this in vitro study was to evaluate the antimicrobial effects of different concentrations of TAP at 1-, 2-, 3-, and 4-week intervals on mature Enterococcus faecalis biofilm. Materials and methods. A total of 287 extracted one-rooted hu...

Objective: It has been shown that the irrigating solutions and medicament used during root canal treatment may affect the bonding strength. The aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of triple antibiotic paste (TAP), double antibiotic paste (DAP) and calcium hydroxide (CH) on the bond strength to root dentin of self-adhesive resin cement. Materials and methods: Forty-eight single-rooted h...

Large populations of Criconemella curvata and extended experimental periods were required to adversely affect yield of 'Moapa 69' alfalfa. C. curvata ectoparasitic feeding caused a reduction in feeder root numbers and tap root size and small lesions on tap and secondary roots. Greater reproduction occurred at 27 C than at 22 C, but the effect of the nematode on alfalfa growth was the same at bo...

rhizotoxicity by reducing Al activity through increased solution ionic strength and increased competition beAluminum-tolerant germplasm is needed to overcome subsurface tween Ca and Al at binding sites external to the plasacidity constraints to root growth and plant access to water and nutrients. Root elongation of four soybean [Glycine max (L.) Merr.] genomalema (Kinraide and Parker, 1987). Ot...
