Introduction: Breast cancer is one of the most common malignancies among Iranian women. Nowadays, the use of traditional medicinal plants has emerged as a tempting complementary to the treatment of breast cancer due to minimal side effects and less documented drug resistance. The aim of this study was to examine the anticancer effects of the essential oils of red clover and mature fruit of Bass...

Perennial ryegrass (S23), timothy (S48), white clover (S100) and red clover (Hungaropoly), grown in culture solutions containing 0.2 x 5.0 x M-potassium iodide, showed relatively small differences in iodine uptake. The lowest uptake occurred with timothy, the species that also produced the lowest yields of dry matter. Red clover had the lowest concentration of iodine in the shoots on all treatm...

The data provide an overview of proteomic changes in red clover (Trifolium pratense L.) in response to cold acclimation and recurrent selection for superior freezing tolerance. Proteins were extracted from crowns of two red clover cultivars grown under non-acclimated or cold-acclimated conditions, and plants obtained from the initial genetic background (TF0) and from populations obtained after ...

The true digestibility of amino acids of 5 groups of different Trifolium varieties and hybrids was established by using the balance method adapted for geese. Digestibility of the most important amino acids Lysine varies from 70.40 (for tetraplod red clover) to 81.78 (for medium leafy white clover varieties); for Methionine from 60.54 (for Trifolium repens f. giganteum) to 89.42 (diploid red clo...

red clover (trifolium pretense) has wide adaptability to different soil and climatic conditions, and suitable digestibility of forage compared to the other clover species. new red clover cultivar, nasim, was primarily selected from clover germplasm received from food and agriculture organization (fao), the united nations, in seed and plant improvement institute, karaj, iran. agronomic and yield...

Genetic modification of plants by the insertion of transgenes can be a powerful experimental approach to answer basic questions about gene product function. This technology can also be used to make improved crop varieties for use in the field. To apply this powerful tool to red clover, an important forage legume, a population of red clover with a high potential for regeneration in tissue cultur...

forage species in mixtures are extensively grown worldwide nowadays, particularly as a step towards sustainable agriculture, however, information on this topic is scanty in our country. thus a 2-year (2001-2003) field experiment was conducted to determine the forage yield, botanical composition, as well as competition of some forage grasses and legumes as mono and dual cultures combinations at ...
