aim and background: capparisspinosa l. is considered as one of the most significant plant species in the capparaceae. this plant is one of the most important medicinal plants and has a great ability to stabilize sand dune. seeds of this plant have germination problems. the aim of this research is to determine germination percentage of capparisspinosa according to different duration of chilling ...

The present study was undertaken to determine whether vacuolar H(+)-pyrophosphatase (V-PPase) might replace vacuolar H(+)-ATPase under energy stress due to anoxia or chilling in anoxia-tolerant species such as rice (Oryza sativa L.) and corn (Zea mays L.). The relative transcript level of V-PPase in rice seedlings, like that of alcohol dehydrogenase 1, increased greatly under anoxia and decline...

Chamomile (Anthemis haussknechtii Boiss. & Reut. and Anthemis pseudocotula Boiss.) are annual, medicinal and aromatic plant belong to Asteraceae family. This two species have special important in pharmaceutical and cosmetic industries. Current study was carried out to investigation of different pre-treatments for enhancement of seed emergence potential, rate of emergence and v...

Endodormancy and the related chilling requirement synchronize seasonal development of trees from boreal temperate regions under climatic conditions prevailing at their native growing sites. The phenomenon endodormancy has been known whole-plant level for 100 years, in last couple decades, insights into physiological molecular basis its release have also obtained. Intriguingly, recent studies sh...
