A fraction of mouse RNA containing messenger RNA coding for mouse interferon was translated with high efficiency in a wheat germ system into a fully active product. This product fulfills the criteria for mouse interferon, namely: (1) it was active against vesicular stomatitis virus and herpes simplex virus in mouse cells; (2) its antiviral activity was species specific; (3) its activity was com...

the effect of different preparation methods of vermiwash on certain wheat traits, namely: yield, growth indices as well as fe, zn and p uptake, as regards wheat grain was evaluated. a greenhouse experiment was conducted within the framework of factorial randomized complete block design (rcbd) of four replicates. the treatments included 1) vermiwash (15 levels) and 2) consumption methods (two le...

A collection of 35 accessions of the tetraploid wild wheat Aegilops geniculata Roth (MM, UU) sampled in northern Algeria was evaluated for morphological and biochemical variability. Morphological and ecological analyses based on morphological traits and bioclimatic parameters, respectively, were assessed using principal component analysis (PCA). Accessions were differentiated by width character...

UNLABELLED The Plant Gene Index (PlantGI) database is developed as a web-based search system with search capabilities for keywords to provide information on gene indices specifically for agricultural plants. The database contains specific Gene Index information for ten agricultural species, namely, rice, Chinese cabbage, wheat, maize, soybean, barley, mushroom, Arabidopsis, hot pepper and tomat...

Baker's asthma is a frequent occupational allergic disease caused mainly by inhalation of cereal flour, particularly wheat flour. This review deals with the current diagnosis and immunomodulatory treatments, as well as the role of wheat allergens as molecular tools to enhance management and knowledge of this disease. The review also discusses the current status of several salt-soluble proteins ...

the primary aim of plant breeding is to improve stability in yield and to obtain varieties with good quality. for this reason, a study of wheat varieties was conducted in 2010, 2011, and 2012 at the agricultural application and research center fields of the uludag university, agricultural faculty, in bursa/turkey. in the study, 22 advanced lines of bread wheat and gonen, pehlivan, and flamura c...
