There is a huge demand of silver nanoparticles in the global market due to their special properties and applications in different fields such as nanomedicine , dentists , nanocatalysis, nanoelectronics, textile field, waste water treatment.The major cons of top down and Bottom up methods are the synthesis processes are highly costly, time consuming and many harmful chemicals are used. To reduce...

Wheat stripe rust, caused by Puccinia striiformis f. sp. tritici (Pst), is one of the most important diseases of wheat worldwide. Understanding the survival of Pst during the overwintering period is critical for predicting Pst epidemics in the spring. Real-time quantitative PCR (qPCR) methods quantifying Pst DNA and RNA (cDNA) were developed and compared for the ability to quantify viable Pst i...

metal pollution has become one of the most serious environmental problems resulting from human activity. phytoremediation utilizes plants to uptake contaminants and can potentially be used to remediate metal-contaminated sites. the present study investigates heavy metal uptake (cd, cr, and ni) from soil by different organs of populus alba and morus alba. for this purpose, cd (40, 80, and 160 mg...

this research which aims to survey the relation between tobacco leaf yield and its components is done by using 118 varieties of tobacco in a research farm of guilan tobacco research institute. regarding to five random selections of plants, twenty three traits of each variety were evaluated. correlation between dry matter of leaf yield with plant height, stem diameter, leaf length, leaf width, l...

Previous work (1) has shown that about 50 per cent of the total protein nitrogen contained in a tobacco leaf which had recently completed growth by expansion is associated with particulate structures of leaf protoplasm such as nuclei, chloroplasts, etc. The other 50 per cent of the protein nitrogen remains soluble in the presence of neutral buffers. In the analytical ultracentrifuge, the solubl...

The leaves of Acer negundo L. var. odessanum (H. Rothe), if permanently exposed to strong sunlight, do not green, but remain yellow and finally become bleached. In yellow leaves the plastids contain single thylakoids and no grana. In plastids of bleached leaves, however, only vesicles are present. The concentration of chlorophylls and photosynthetic activity are much lower in those leaves than ...
