in order to study the effect of rootstock, scion and some methods of grafting and budding to achieve the best methods of grafting in pomegranate, split factorial experiment was conducted in a completely randomized design in march 2013 in greenhouse at the agricultural college of vali-e-asr university of rafsanjan. factors included rootstock, scion, and methods of grafting and time of grafting. ...

In this work, the grafting of maleic anhydride onto two types of linear low density polyethylene with hexene-1 comonomer (LLDPE-H1) and butene-1 comonomer (LLDPE-B1), in the presence of styrene monomer (St) and dicumyl peroxide initiator (DCP) has been studied. The combined influences of MAH, St and DCP on the grafting efficiency via a melt reactive mixing process have been investigated using r...

Total RNA and DNA of mimosa epicotyl tissues were extracted and the RNA fractionated into specific soluble RNAs (sRNAs) at different times during late germination. Epicotyls collected at each time contained qualitatively comparable meristematic and developing tissues, while mature tissues increased. Quantitative ratios of total RNA to DNA and total sRNAs to approximated ribosomal RNA (rRNA) var...

The water permeability of tissues was investigated by measuring the efflux of (3)HHO from previously loaded (in darkness) etiolated bean buds (Phaseolus vulgaris L. var. Red Kidney), pea epicotyl segments (Pisum sativum L. var. Alaska), and oat coleoptile segments (Avena sativa L. var. Garry). Red light, far red light, or darkness was applied at the time of transfer of tissue from labeled to un...

A system is described for the examination of phototropism in the epicotyl of a dicot seedling, mung bean (Phaseolus aureus Roxb.), under conditions approximating nature, including the use of intact, nonetiolated plants exposed to elevated, continuous, white, unilateral light. It is found that in this system perception of the phototropic stimulus by the leaves alone cannot account for the curvat...

Capacity for the alternative respiratory pathway was assessed in leaf and root tissue of male-sterile and fertile soybean (Glycine max [L.] Merr.) plants and in leaf, embryonic axis, and epicotyl tissue as well as isolated mitochondria of pea (Pisum sativum L.) by measurement of oxygen uptake in the presence and absence of KCN and salicylhydroxamic acid. Male-sterile and fertile soybean tissues...

Microsomal membranes from growing tissue of pea (Pisum sativum L.) epicotyls were incubated with the substrate UDP-[14C]galactose (Gal) with or without tamarind seed xyloglucan (XG) as a potential galactosyl acceptor. Added tamarind seed XG enhanced incorporation of [14C]Gal into high-molecular-weight products (eluted from columns of Sepharose CL-6B in the void volume) that were trichloroacetic...
