In December 1999, when the EU Commission issued the Strategy on Endocrine Disruptors 1 , researchers had already recorded impacts on wildlife in polluted areas throughout the world (e.g. reproductive and immune problems in Baltic seals). Links were being drawn to human diseases and disorders, such as testicular, breast and prostate cancers, decline in sperm counts, reproductive organ deformitie...

Globally Harmonized System defines Reproductive Toxicity as “an adverse effects (of chemicals) on sexual function and fertility in adult males and females, as well as developmental toxicity in the offspring.” Several toxicity assessment studies have been performed taking into account the action of toxicants on reproductive activity. Testis is the main organ of male reproductive system and sperm...

A pollination syndrome is defined as a suite of floral traits that are associated with the attraction of a specific group of animals as pollinators. Traits such as flower morphology, color, scent, and rewards contribute to the plant's reproductive success by attracting pollinators. Here we focus on the genetics of natural variation in flower morphology and how the adaptation between plants and ...

Women who receive transplants require contraception counseling because of the teratogenicity of immunosuppressant medications and the risks posed by pregnancy after transplant. Fortunately, pregnancy can succeed with careful planning and monitoring.

in order to determine probable effects of sowing dates on partitioning coefficient of dry matter to different organs (leaf, stem and reproductive organs) in different wheat varieties (koohdasht, zagros and tajan) an experiment with crbd design and four replications was conducted. 5 sowing dates were included (29 december, 2007, 30 january, 2 march, 27 march, 1may, 2008). in order to quantify pa...

Introduction: Vinca rosea, an important medicinal plant, is well-known for its anticancer properties especially against breast cancer. In this study, we compared the cytotoxic effects of methanolic extracts of the vegetative (young and old leaves) and reproductive (flowers) organs of this plant on a human squamous cell carcinoma using MTT assay. Methods: The cytotoxic effects of Vinca rosea'...
