The germination power of orchids (Orchidaceae family) seems to betoo weak due lack of albumen. The study carried out with various treatments including pollination time and GA3 for breaking dormancy and increasing seed germination of orchids. The effect of pollination time (8 periods from January to August) and gibberellic acid (0, 500, 1000 and 1500 mg L-1) were studied on germination of Phalae...

Assistance for Local Superior Cashew Seedlings in the Wonogiri Cluster . The innovation adoption process can be accelerated if communicant makes innovations. Experience innovating with guidance increases absorption, strengthens expert power, and eventually adopts faster, especially is freed to express himself. Referring this process, mentoring through technical activities performance on graftin...

Shrimp farming is economically admired and environmentally accused in Bangladesh. Environmental impacts of shrimp farm are related among others to management waste water pond sludge. Pond sludge has the potential be recycled also can used as organic manure considering presence high level nutrients matter. The performance was studied on Mahogany seedlings, which grown incremental (10%, 20%, 30% ...

In species with high gene flow and consequent low interpopulation differentiation over wide geographic ranges, differential gene expression along ecological gradients often reveals adaptive significance. We investigated potential differences in protein expression between Picea abies ecotypes adapted to contrasting altitude conditions. Protein expression patterns were compared between needles an...

Methods: Experimental plots (4 m) were planted with seedlings of four grassland species arranged into increasingly larger groups (patches) of conspecific individuals while controlling plot-scale richness and evenness. Available light (photosynthetically active radiation; PAR) at the soil surface was measured each month for three growing seasons after planting. Species’ relative abundances were ...

Polyploidy, frequently observed in citrus species, aids achieving better adaptation to environmental stresses. In this context, the current work aims develop stable tetraploids rootstock cultivars, viz., Rough lemon, Rangpur lime and Alemow, through vitro colchicine treatments. Seed-derived explants were obtained by culturing sterile seeds on MS basal media. Seedlings with a size of 5–8 mm (hyp...

trees are an important source of wild germplasm for sustainable forestry. wild pear germplasm (pyrus boisseriana) was collected from a forest ecosystem and resistance potential to drought stress was surveyed in a greenhouse. in six-month seedlings, signs of leaf rolling appeared after 18 days without water (drought simulation). gas exchange parameters, such as net photosynthesis, stomatal condu...

Date palm seedlings derived from Jihel (JHL), a susceptible cultivar to Bayoud disease (fusariosis caused by Fusarium oxysporum f.sp. albedinis, Foa), were subjected to root inoculation with an arbuscular mycorrhizal fungus (AMF) collected from south Morocco and multiplied on barley as host plant. Successfully colonized plants by mycorrhizal fungi (85 % of treated plants) produced typical intra...

This study was carried out to study the proteome of date palm under salinity and drought stress conditions to possibly identify proteins involved in stress tolerance. For this purpose, three-month-old seedlings of date palm cultivar "Sagie" were subjected to drought (27.5 g/L polyethylene glycol 6000) and salinity stress conditions (16 g/L NaCl) for one month. DIGE analysis of protein extracts ...
