sugar type and growth regulators are essential fundamental components of tissue culture media. in this study, different concentrations of some carbohydrate and growth regulators during anther culture and producing somatic embryo of datura stramonium l. was investigated in ms medium. the ms medium supplemented with 0.5 mgl-1 kinetin and 2 mgl-1 2,4-d, and also the medium supplemented with 0.25 m...

Growth hormone (GH), a key regulator of somatic and reproductive growth in vertebrates, has been extensively studied, although primarily female fish. Despite numerous reports about sex- spec...

Objective: This study was conducted to evaluate the effects of different proportions of marshmallow extract (Althaea officinalis L.) on growth performance and carcass composition of common carp (Cyprinus carpio). Methods: Common carp with an average weight of 37.65 ± 4.40 g were fed for two months with a diet supplemented with marshmallow (A. officinalis) ext...

In present report effects of explants type, basal media and plant growth regulators (PGRs) were tested for induction of indirect somatic embryogenesis in medicinally important plant Silybum marianum L. Leaf, petiole and root explants were exploited in vitro on B5 (Gamborg), SH (Schenk and Hildebrandt) and MS (Murashige and Skoog) media for induction of embryogenic callus followed by somatic emb...

this study was done on 4 and 5 years old great sturgeon cultured in brackish water ponds in bafgh salt water fisheries research station during one year. we examined somatic growth indices and effects of different diets on blood parameters and total length and weight. diet with constant protein (%40) and different energy levels (400,425,450,475 cal/100g) were fed to 74 pieces of great sturgeons ...

In the ciliate Dileptus organisms are completely organized at the time of excystation. They grow intensively, increasing in volume several times, before they reach the trophic cell size. The growth includes both the somatic part of the body as well as the oral parts, consisting of the cytostomal field and the ventral band of the proboscis. From the time of excystation, during the growth of the ...

Relationships between somatic growth (length and weight) and two indirect measures of growth (otolith growth, RNA/DNA ratio) were assessed for red drum (Sciaenops ocellatus) under different feeding rations [0%, 2.5%, 5%, 10%, 15%, and 20% body weight (BW)/day] for 30 days. Representative samples from each ration level were taken in 10-day intervals between Day 0 and Day 30 for evaluation of dir...
