Hydroxyproline-containing proteins increase markedly in the cell walls of the Alaska pea epicotyl during the transition of rapidly elongating tissue into non-elongating, mature tissue. The increase in these proteins may be a factor in the cessation of cell elongation.

Cotyledons of light-grown soybean (Glycine max L. var Wayne) seedlings were used as a model system to study the possibility that aging requires qualitative changes in protein synthesis. Cotyledons reached a final stage of senescence and then abscised about 22 days after imbibition. Cotyledon senescence was reversed at 20 days after germination by epicotyl removal. Thereafter, the cotyledons reg...

Genetic improvement together with statistics has contributed to the growth of importance soybean in Brazil. One contributions been launching new cultivars national market, which requires, its legal procedures for registration and protection, verification several tests, one them being distinguishability test. Several studies have reported that some phenotypic characters are potential this distin...

Quantification of the flavonoids in yellow lupin (Lupinus luteus; Leguminosae) seedlings revealed that a flavone glucoside, 7-O-beta-(2-O-beta-rhamnosyl)glucosyl-4',5,7-trihydroxyflavone (apigenine 7-O-beta-neohesperidoside), is rich in the epicotyl and cotyledon. In hypocotyls and roots, 8-C-beta-glucosyl-4',5,7-trihydroxyisoflavone (genistein 8-C-beta-glucoside) was a predominant flavonoid co...

Lentil is one of the oldest cultured crops with cereals which are cultivated in wide geography world due to its high adaptability, quality nutritional value, important usage areas and economic value. Morphological, physiological biochemical parameters during early vegetative stage an indicator adaptation environmental conditions. This study was carried out investigate variation on some agronomi...

the cornelian cherry is one of those less common but, nevertheless, interesting fruit species found in serbia which can be used both for food and medicine. due to a great importance of cornelian cherry fruits as safe food and a wide interest in growing this fruit species, this research was focused on examining the production technique of quality planting material of particularly large-fruit sel...

A poly(A)-binding protein (PABP) with mol wt 29,000 has been purified from chickpea (Cicer arietinum) epicotyl by ammonium sulfate fractionation and Cibacron blue F3-GA chromatography, making a complex with poly(A) and elution of PABP-poly(A) complex at 45 degrees C from oligo d(T)-cellulose. The elution pattern and binding properties show that the purified protein is different from the PABP (m...
