The investigation aimed to study the effect of foliar application chemicals on plant canopy, vegetative growth and flowering, as well overall appearance Ixora chinensis plants grown in pot. Application salicylic acid, benzyl adenine silicon at different concentrations significantly influenced growth, pigments compared untreated (control). Plants treated with 10 mg/l 20 acid showed significant i...

It has been demonstrated that Terminal Flowering 1 (TFL1) in Arabidopsis and its functional orthologs in other plants specify indeterminate stem growth through their specific expression that represses floral identity genes in shoot apical meristems (SAMs), and that the loss-of-function mutations at these functional counterparts result in the transition of SAMs from the vegetative to reproductiv...

Testing of lupine varieties for alkaloids was performed in the period 2006-2010 at the Voke Branch of the Lithuanian Institute of Agriculture in the course of a competitive trial of feeding lupine (Lupinus sp.). Samples of feeding yellow lupine (Lupinus luteus L.) varieties as well as narrow-leaved lupine (Lupinus angustifolius L.) were used. The alkaloid concentration was assessed in the perio...

In this study the changes of total polyphenolics in different anatomical parts (stems, leaves, flowers and seeds) of common buckwheat (Fagopyrum esculentum Moench.) during vegetation period were analysed. The content of total polyphenolics was evaluated in growth phase I (formation of buds), phase II (at the beginning of flowering), phase III (full blossoming) and phase IV (full ripeness). In a...

Mediterranean greenhouses for cultivation of Phalaenopsis orchids reproduce the warm, humid, and shaded environment of tropical underbrush. Heating represents the highest production cost, due to the high thermal requirements and the long unproductive phase of juvenility, in which plants attain the critical size for flowering. Our researches aimed to investigate the effect of plant size, tempera...

The steppe peony (Paeonia tenuifolia L.) is an endangered medicinal plant species that occurs in Serbia three habitats, of which the Deliblato Sands richest. Based on results research conducted at 2023, it was found development flowering stems Paeonia not affected by slightly higher average winter temperatures. One hundred randomly selected plants were measured field, including height, girth, n...

in order to evaluate the efficiency of biocontrol agents of corn stem borer ,ostrinia nubilalis, experiment was conducted in a randomized complete block by five treatments and four replication, including, indoxacarb (avant)®, trichogrammawasps, bacillus thuringiensis var: kurstaki, integration of trichogramma sp. and bt., and control as treatments number 1 to 5. in treatments with parasitoid re...

This study investigates the impact of wastewater irrigation on soil–plant–water system at vegetative, flowering, and reproductive stages Phragmites australis for two four days (in each stage) in coastal saline area Urmia Lake. The concentrations potentially toxic elements were detected irrigated water, soil, plant (aboveground belowground) tissues, transfer factor bioaccumulation calculated. sh...
