In order to evaluate the variations of some morphological traits, yield, seed yield components and essential oil yield of German Chamomile under different application levels of nitrogen (N) and biofertilizers, a split plot experiment laid out in a randomized complete blocks design with three replications in Shar-e-Ray (Gale No) region. Chemical N fertilizer application in three levels (0, 65 an...

This study was carried out to investigate the direct and indirect responses to selection for four-week body weight (4 week body (wk BW)) and four-week breast weight (4 week breast weight (wk BRW)) and to determine the genetic contribution of reminder founders to the last generation. A total number of 351 birds were equally allocated to three lines, including two selected lines (S1 and S2 for BW...

OBJECTIVE The purpose of this study was to assay the antifungal activity of selected essential oils obtained from plants against both fluconazole (FLU)-resistant and FLU-susceptible C. albicans strains isolated from HIV positive patients with oropharyngeal candidiasis (OPC). MATERIALS AND METHODS The essential oils were obtained by hydrodistillation method from Myrtus communis (My. communis),...

Matricaria chamomilla contained oils, sterols, triterpenes, flavonoids, saponins, tannins, alkaloids, sugars, proteins, mucins, sesquiterpenes, coumarins, polyacetylenes, phenyl carboxylic acids, amino phytosterols, choline and mineral substances. The pharmacological studies revealed that possessed dermatological, antioxidant, anticancer, anti-inflammatory, analgesic, antimicrobial, reproductiv...

The present study was carried out on dried chamomile powder to compare yield of extraction, physicochemical characteristics and sensorial properties of extracts obtained from samples irradiated by gamma ray (GR) and electron beam (EB) at 10 kGy and 20 kGy. The results of the present study showed that radiation treatment with 10 kGy and 20 kGy of GR and EB did not affect significantly the yield ...

the study of genetic variation and phylogenetic relationships is essential for the efficient selection of superior plant material and conducting introgression breeding programs. in iran, despite the wide geographical distribution of grasses no report is available on the genetic diversity and relationships of cool season grass populations. in this study amplified fragment length polymorphism (af...
