Methane is a major constituent of greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions from ruminants, and mitigation strategies are needed to alleviate this negative environmental impact while maintaining the other benefits grazing systems. Forages containing plant-specialized metabolites (PSM), particularly condensed tannins, may help reduce enteric methane (CH4) emissions. However, information on in vivo CH4 cows...

the objective of this research was to evaluate the effect of different concentration of salicylic acid on enhancement germination characteristics of sanguisorba minor l. under salt and drought stress. the experimental design was factorial arranged in a completely randomized block design with four replications. treatment were combination of 5 levels of salt and drought stress, separately (0, -0....

Possible control options are investigated for the introduced Hieracium weeds, particular problems in South Island high country, New Zealand. In a pot experiment regression of input to output ratios of above ground biomass over successive harvests, from binary mixtures was used to determine the competitive interaction between 13 pasture species and two Hieracium species, H. pilosella and H. prae...

information on different rangeland plants’ nutritive values during variousphonological stages is of importance for the rangelands management. this information helpsrangeland managers to choose proper grazing times to achieve higher animal performancewith no detrimental effects on the rangeland vegetations. effects of various plant parts’phenological stages and vegetation types on reserve carboh...

Recent studies have dealt about the phenolic compounds and nutraceutical properties of Sanguisorba minor Scop possibility their domestication to standardise plant production. However, it is also known that storage conditions can affect bioactive present in plants. Thus, wild (W) domesticated (F1, F2, F3) S. samples were exposed different drying methods (oven-drying at 60 °C until constant weigh...

Some sciences are exciting because of their generality and some because of their predictive power. Immunology is particularly exciting, however, because it provokes unusual ideas, some of which are not easily come upon through other fields of study. Indeed, many immunologists believe that for this reason, immunology will have a great impact on other branches of biology and medicine. On an occas...

Guided by a hemostasis bioassay, seven terpene glycosides were isolated from the roots of Sanguisorba officinalis L. by silica gel column chromatography and preparative HPLC. On the grounds of chemical and spectroscopic methods, their structures were identified as citronellol-1-O-α-L-arabinofuranosyl-(1→6)-β-D-glucopyranoside (1), geraniol-1-O-α-L-arabinofuranosyl-(1→6)-β-D-glucopyranoside (2),...
