The effect of drought stress on carbon metabolism in the leaves and roots bermudagrass was investigated. Plants established PVC tubes suffered from three water treatments for 10 days. C138 Tifway (drought-tolerant) were found to have lower relative electrical conductivity higher use efficiency than C32 (drought-sensitive) under moderate by increasing carotenoid soluble sugar content rapidly dec...

The subtribe Eleusininae Dumort. (Poaceae: Chlorid­ oideae: Cynodonteae) is a morphologically diverse group, characterized by having racemose inflorescences (with a few exceptions) and contains about 212 species in 31 genera found primarily in low latitudes in Africa, Asia, Australia, and the Americas. Ten of the genera are currently monotypic (Apochiton C.E.Hubb., Austrochloris Lazarides, Dakn...

A mixture of common Southern Piedmont (USA) grassland species (Lolium arundinacea, Paspalum dilatatum, Cynodon dactylon and Trifolium repens) was exposed to O(3) [ambient (non-filtered; NF) and twice-ambient (2X) concentrations] and fed to individually caged New Zealand white rabbits (Oryctolagus cuniculus) in a digestibility experiment. Forages and feed refusals were analyzed for concentration...

Chloroplasts have been isolated from bermudagrass (Cynodon dactylon L.) leaves and assayed for photophosphorylation and electron transport activity. These chloroplasts actively synthesize adenosine triphosphate during cyclic electron flow with phenazine methosulfate and noncyclic electron flow concurrent with the reduction of such Hill oxidants as nicotinamide adenosine dinucleotide phosphate, ...

In the present paper we have investigated Psorolin B ointment for improving bio-mechanical property of skin. is proprietary Siddha formulation composed Boswellia serrata, Wrightia tinctoria, Cynodon dactylon, Hydnocarpus laurifolia and red ochre. The property/elasticity skin evaluated in volar forearm region by four different methods such as applying uniaxial force, centripetal vacuum suction i...
