Extracellular components released from mycelia of the alpha and beta races of the bean pathogen, Colletotrichum lindemuthianum, inhibited proton uptake in sealed vesicles prepared from bean hypocotyls. Differential sensitivity of ATP-driven proton transport to nitrate, vanadate, N,N'-dicyclohexylcarbodiimide, diethylstilbestrol, and oligomycin suggested the vesicles were enriched for tonoplast....

The release rhythm of volatiles is an important physiological characteristic of plants, because the timing of release can affect the function of each particular volatile compound. However, most studies on volatiles release rhythms have been conducted using model plants, rather than crop plants. Here, we analyzed the variations in volatile compounds released from healthy and leafminer (Liriomyza...

The presence of DNA fragments in tissues from rabbits given genetically modified (GM) soya-bean meal (solvent extracted) was investigated by using the polymerase chain reaction (PCR) approach. Moreover, the possible effects on cell metabolism were evaluated by determination of several specific enzymes in serum, heart, skeletal muscle, liver and kidney. The chloroplast sequence for tRNA Leu by u...

Complex toxic effects of Cd2+, Zn2+, and acid rain on growth of kidney bean (Phaseolus vulgaris L) were studied in a pot experiment by measurement of fresh weights of the plants, determination of surperoxide dismutase (SOD), peroxidase (POD), and lipid peroxidation (MDA) in the plant organs, and observation of injury symptoms. The experimental results demonstrated that all treatments of Cd2+, Z...

the effect of various host plants including chickpea (varieties arman, hashem, azad and binivich), common bean (variety khomein), white kidney bean (variety dehghan), red kidney bean (variety goli), cowpea (variety mashhad), and tomato (variety meshkin) on the reproductive performance and growth indices of the cotton bollworm, helicoverpa armigera (hübner) was determined under laboratory condit...

The physiology and anatomy of abscission has been studied in considerable detail; however, information on the regulation of gene expression in abscission has been limited because of a lack of probes for specific genes. We have identified and sequenced a 595 nucleotide bean (Phaseolus vulgaris cv Red Kidney) abscission cellulase cDNA clone (pBACl). The bean cellulase cDNA has extensive nucleic a...

Background: Small white Kidney beans (Phaseolus vulgaris L.) is popular in the international market, they are widely cultivated high and cold areas of China. However, these have relatively short growth period, resulting low yield quality kidney beans, which limits development bean. Keyun1 has since played an important role improving bean production country 2020 because its yields, good upright,...
