High temperature stress is a major limiting factor in the growth and development of tall fescue (Festuca arundinacea) in transitional and warm climatic regions. In this study, we evaluated the photosynthesis, PSII functionality, and antioxidant activity of two tall fescue cultivars, Jaguar 3 brand (heat-tolerant) and TF 66 (heat-sensitive) in response to high temperature stress. High temperatur...

OBJECTIVE Retinoids are recognized as important regulators of cell differention and tissue function. Previous studies, performed both in vivo and in vitro, indicate that retinoids influence several reproductive events. In this study, we investigated the effect of all-trans retinoic acid (t-RA) on maturation and fertilization rate of immature oocytes (germinal vesicle). MATERIALS AND METHODS G...
