A rapid and reliable micropropagation protocol was developed for two sweet potato varieties, Mangawy Mabrokat Al-Shimal, by testing various growth regulators different carbon sources. Healthy cultures were taken from nodal segment explants potted plants. Adding BA more effective than Kinetin when used at the same concentration. The highest number of leaves per explant (5.22 leaves/ explant) lon...

Changes in the distribution of the proton magnetic resonance spectroscopy (MRS) observed metabolites N-acetyl aspartate (NAA), total-choline (Cho), and total-creatine (Cre) in the entire intracranial corticospinal tract (CST) including the primary motor cortex were evaluated in patients with amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS). The study included 38 sporadic definite-ALS subjects and 70 age-mat...

the present investigation was conducted to study the effects of type and concentration of auxin and cytokinin on callus induction of three strawberry (kurdistan, parose and camarosa) cultivars. for this purpose, leaf blade, nodal, petiole, receptacle, stamen and flower bud explants were cultured on murashige and skoog (ms) medium at three separate experiments included 2, 4 dichlorophenoxyacetic...

This review article investigates a comprehensive description of the factors, methods, strategies, approaches and prerequisites influencing in vitro micropaopagation and the amount of their use across the world. The findings presented here are the results of the study of several hundred papers published all over the world. Tissue culture techniques are routinely used for micropropagation. Enhanc...

Aponogeton ulvaceus Baker (Aponogetonaceae) is a commercially important ornamental aquatic plant species with traditional medicinal uses. Due to the low survival rate of seedlings, propagation by conventional means has been met with many difficulties. In this study, botanical aspects of A. ulvaceus were examined with regards to the morphology, anatomy and physiology of the plant and an efficien...

BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Current imaging does not permit quantification of neural injury after traumatic brain injury (TBI) and therefore limits both the development of new treatments and the appropriate counseling of patients concerning prognosis. We evaluated the utility of magnetization transfer ratio (MTR) and proton MR spectroscopy in identifying patients with neuronal injury after TBI. ME...

BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE There is considerable variability in the clinical behavior and treatment response of low-grade (WHO grade II) gliomas. The purpose of this work was to characterize the metabolic profile of low-grade gliomas by using short echo time (1)H-MR spectroscopy and to correlate metabolite levels with MR imaging-measured sodium ((23)Na) signal intensity. Based on previous studies, ...
