Low-temperature stress is a type of abiotic that limits plant growth and production in both subtropical tropical climate conditions. In the current study, effects 24-epi-brassinolide (EBR) as analogs brassinosteroids (BRs) were investigated, terms hormone content, antioxidant enzyme activity, transcription several cold-responsive genes, under low-temperature (9 °C) two different tomato species ...

Tensile stress–strain and stress relaxation properties of 1100 equivalent weight Nafion have been measured from 23 to 120 C at 0–100% relative humidity. At room temperature, the elastic modulus of Nafion decreases with water activity. At 90 C, the elastic modulus goes through a maximum at a water activity of 0.3. At temperatures 90 C, hydrated membranes are stiffer than dry membranes. Stressrel...

Four levels of nonphytate P (NPP; 0.2, 0.3, 0.4, and 0.5%; total P = 0.46, 0.56, 0.66, and 0.76%) and two temperatures (25 and 37 degrees C) were evaluated in chicks from 8 to 22 d. In experiment 1, crossbred male chicks (New Hampshire x Columbian) housed at 25 degrees C increased weight gain at all increasing NPP levels, but chicks exposed to 37 degrees C did not show increased weight gain bey...

*Correspondence: Harsh Nayyar, Department of Botany, Panjab University, Chandigarh 160014, India e-mail: [email protected] Plants are exposed to a wide range of environmental conditions and one of the major forces that shape the structure and function of plants are temperature stresses, which include low and high temperature stresses and considered as major abiotic stresses for crop plant...

The present study presents effect the diet of broilers exposed to heat stress, which the diet was added vitamin E on serum glucose, total protein, triglyseride, total cholesterol, high density lipoproteins (HDL), low density lipoproteins (LDL), very low density lipoproteins (VLDL), hydrocarbon (HC), triacylglycerol (TAG), diacylglycerol (DAG), non-ester fatty acid (NEFA), polar lipids (PL) with...

An extensive investigation has been carried out on the compressive mechanical behaviour of type 224-carbon steel (0.18 wt % C, 1.21 wt % Mn) over the temperature range -110°C to +300°C and strain-rate 10" to 5000s", making possible the determination of the thermal sensitivity of this material. In several tests, a thermocouple was mounted inside each small cylindrical specimen to observe any tem...
