Background: Making silage added with additives can improve the quality of nutrition and speed up fermentation process. Molasses are widely used by farmers as for making silage. The use molasses be replaced Fermented Mother Liquor (FML) in Purpose: to determine effect addition on physical chemical corn plant given (FML). Method: Observative data collection direct observations two treatments cons...

salinity is one of the important factors that reduce the growth and yield of crops in iran; however, determining appropriate methods for reducing its negative effects is important. in order to study the effects of nutritional condition of mother plant and bacterial biofertilizers seed priming on germination indices of wheat (triticum aestivum l.), in salinity condition, an experiment was conduc...

Ochradenus baccatus is a medicinal plant of high value, spread over sandy and stony places of Kingdom of Saudi Arabia and most of the desert regions of Egypt. This species contains several flavanoids and specific constituents which are important as these have already been effectively used in lowering cholesterol in the blood of rats and high inhibition potential of the malarial parasite (Plasmo...

Inter-simple sequence repeat (ISSR) markers were used to evaluate the genetic stability of the micropropagated plants of Cannabis sativa over 30 passages in culture and hardening in soil for 8 months. A total of 15 ISSR primers resulted in 115 distinct and reproducible bands. All the ISSR profiles from micropropagated plants were monomorphic and comparable to mother plants, confirming the genet...

Apios americana is a wild legume-bearing plant with edible tubers. Domestication of Apios is in progress because of the superior nutritional value and health benefits of the tuber. Objectives of this study were to: (1) characterize physicochemical properties of the Apios tuber starch; and (2) understand differences in starch structures and properties between the mother (seed) and child (progeny...

BACKGROUND Fundamental in traditional postpartum recovery in Lao PDR is the use of hotbeds, mother roasting, steam sauna and steam baths. During these treatments medicinal plants play a crucial role, but little has been published about how the treatments are carried out precisely, which species are used, the medicinal properties of these species, and the medicinal efficacy of their chemical con...

pistacia atlantica is the most important tree species for the economy of many rural areas in west of iran, but no effort has been made for the genetic improvement of this species. the aim of this investigation was to study the genetic variation and inheritance of early growth traits in p. atlantica. for this purpose, three wild pistachio populations comprising 60 randomly selected adult trees f...

We describe an optimization tool for a multistage production process for rectangular steel plates. The problem we solve yields a production design (or plan) for rectangular plate products in a steel plant, i.e., a detailed list of operational steps and intermediate products on the way to producing steel plates. We decompose this problem into subproblems that correspond to the production stages,...

Apomixis is a natural form of asexual reproduction through seeds that leads to viable offspring genetically identical to the mother plant. New evidence from sexual model species indicates that the regulation of female gametogenesis and seed formation is also directed by epigenetic mechanisms that are crucial to control events that distinguish sexuality from apomixis, with important implications...

Epidermal hypocotyl cells are characterized by a highly structured cortical microtubule array, consisting of bundles of polarized, parallel microtubules that gradually migrate across the cortex in a rotary fashion (Chan et al., 2007). In animal cells, microtubules arise from centrosomes; however, plant cells lack centrosomes, and microtubules are thought to self-organize into structured arrays ...
