Evolution of glyphosate-resistant kochia is a threat to no-till wheat-fallow and glyphosate-resistant (GR) cropping systems of the US Great Plains. The EPSPS (5-enol-pyruvylshikimate-3-phosphate synthase) gene amplification confers glyphosate resistance in the tested Kochia scoparia (L.) Schrad populations from Montana. Experiments were conducted in spring to fall 2014 (run 1) and summer 2014 t...

Background: This study was done to determine the effect of root extract of Acalypha indica Linn (akar kucing) in protecting neuron viability of the rat hippocampus on tissue culture in hypoxic condition. Methods: This is an experimental study of in vitro primary cell culture of hippocampus of Sprague Dowley adult rat. The cultures were group into control (C) and exposure to root extract of Acal...

kochia is a halophyte plant and is a good source of forage for livestock under saline irrigation. in order to investigate the salinity effect on morphological and forage characteristics of kochia, an experiment was conducted. three saline waters (5.2, 10.5 and 23.1 ds m-1) and three kochia ecotypes (birjand, borujerd and sabzevar) were allocated as main and sub plots, respectively, in a split p...

production of beneficial halophytes such as kochia (kochia scoparia) using saline waters and soils is one of the most sustainable methods of conservation in desert ecosystems. kochia is one of the most common annual halophytes grown in iran. seed germination of four ecotypes of kochia in saline conditions was carried out using factorial based on completely randomized design with four replicates...
