A reanalysis of products formed after short-term incubation of sugarcane (Saccharum spp. hybrid cv H50-7209) vacuole preparations with uridine diphosphate [(14)C]glucose was performed. The results indicated that the ethanol-soluble substance previously identified as sucrose did not elute with sucrose when subjected to high performance liquid chromatography but had the same retention time as a d...

The ethanol extract of roots, fruits and roots of solanum indicum and saccharum munja respectively and water soluble resin of commiphora myrrha were studied for antiinflammatory activity against carrageenin induced oedema in rats, the significant antiinflammatory activity were found in former two plants will slight anti inflammatory activity was observed in latter plant.

Focus has centered on C-partitioning in stems of sugarcane (Saccharum sp.) due to their high-sucrose accumulation features, relevance to other grasses, and rising economic value. Here we review how sugarcane balances between sucrose storage, respiration, and cell wall biosynthesis. The specific topics involve (1) accumulation of exceptionally high sucrose levels (up to over 500 mM), (2) a poten...

Leaf scald caused by Xanthomonas albilineans (Xa) is a major bacterial disease in sugarcane that represents threat to the global sugar industry. Little known about population structure and genetic evolution of this pathogen. In study, 39 Xa strains were collected from 6 provinces China. Of these strains, 15 24 isolated Saccharum spp. hybrid S. officinarum plants, respectively. Based on multiloc...

Above- and belowground tissues of co-occurring saplings (0.1-1 m height) of Acer saccharum Marsh. (very shade tolerant), Acer rubrum L. (shade tolerant), Fraxinus americana L. (intermediate shade tolerant), and Prunus serotina Ehrh. (shade intolerant) were harvested from a forest understory to test the hypothesis that the pattern of biomass allocation varied predictably with shade-tolerance ran...

Variation in somatic and gametic chromosome numbers in Ribes nipuw (Vaarama 1949) and Eruca sativa (Rajan et al., 1950) has been attributed to the formation of accessory spindle and subsequent "elimination of clzrolnosoines e n bloc". In sugarcane, Parthasarathy (1951)~ after exa~nining the slides of megasporogenesis in Co. 421 prepared by Subrainaniam (1946), concluded that the mechanism of el...

Sugarcane (Saccharum spp. hybrids) is one of the most important commercial crops for sugar, ethanol, and other byproducts production; therefore, it great significance to carry out genetic research. Assessing population structure diversity plays a vital role in managing resources gene mapping. In this study, we assessed among 196 Saccharum accessions, including 34 S. officinarum, 69 spontaneum, ...

Test environments and classification of regional ecological zones into mega environments are the two key components in regional testing of sugarcane cultivars. This study aims to provide the theoretical basis for test environment evaluation and ecological zone division for sugarcane cultivars. In the present study, sugarcane yield data from a three-year nationwide field trial involving 21 culti...
