This study was conducted to investigate the effects of different IBA doses on rooting capacity of Cherry laurel (Prunus laurocerasus L.) types in greenhouse conditions under mist propagation unit in 2008 2009. This species has an economic and important value for medicinal and pharmaceutical industry. Determination of suitable conditions for cutting propagation of different types is too importan...

OBJECTIVES The purpose of this study is to investigate if any change exists in the values of tracheal bifurcation angles (subcarinal angle [SCA] and interbronchial angle [IBA]), right and left bronchial angles (RBA and LBA) in different pediatric age groups. METHODS Chest computed tomography (CT) images of children aged 18 years and younger were reviewed retrospectively by two radiologists wh...

To the Editor: We read with interest the article by Mruk and colleagues1 demonstrating the antithrombotic and antispastic effects of flavone-8-acetic acid (flavonoid) in an animal model of a deep arterial injury. The authors conclude that “Flavonoid markedly reduced platelet deposition, mural thrombi, and injury-induced vasoconstriction after deep arterial injury, suggesting that a major inhibi...

Stem-cuttings of Wedelia chinensis (Osbeck.) Merr. Were treated with different concentrations of IBA and GA. The results indicate that 100 ppm IBA treatment greatly enhances root production and quick establishment of the stem-cuttings.

Within the UK, there is a drive to encourage the delivery of alcohol screening (or identification) and brief advice (IBA) in a range of contexts beyond primary care and hospitals where the evidence is strongest. However, the evidence base for effectiveness in non-health contexts is not currently established. This paper considers the case of housing provided by social landlords, drawing on two r...

BACKGROUND Image-based B-mode ultrasound has gained popularity in major studies as a non-invasive method of measuring cardio- and cerebrovascular risk factors. However, none of the major studies appears to have paid sufficient attention to the variation in end diastolic wall process. By using sequentially based analyses (SBA) of Intima-Media Thickness (IMT), the general purpose of this study wa...

Adventitious roots (ARs) are post-embryonic roots essential for plant survival and propagation. Indole-3-acetic acid (IAA) is the auxin that controls AR formation; however, its precursor indole-3-butyric acid (IBA) is known to enhance it. Ethylene affects many auxin-dependent processes by affecting IAA synthesis, transport and/or signaling, but its role in AR formation has not been elucidated. ...

Microglia are evenly distributed throughout the brain parenchyma. They respond rapidly to a variety of alterations in the microenvironment of the brain and act as sensors for pathological events in the brain. In the present study, we investigated the age-dependent changes in the immunoreactivity and protein level of ionized calcium-binding adapter molecule 1 (Iba-1), a microglial marker, in the...

Indole-3-butyric acid (IBA) is widely used in agriculture because it induces rooting. To better understand the in vivo role of this endogenous auxin, we have identified 14 Arabidopsis mutants that are resistant to the inhibitory effects of IBA on root elongation, but that remain sensitive to the more abundant auxin indole-3-acetic acid (IAA). These mutants have defects in various IBA-mediated r...

Salvia tomentosa is a perennial sage of the maquis vegetation, strongly aromatic, with medicinal and ornamental value. Aiming to facilitate promotion species in floriculture sector, its micropropagation was studied terms effect explant origin medium plant growth regulators on vitro cultures establishment, shoot proliferation rooting. Shoot tip or single node explants excised from either grown s...
