castor oil due to extraordinary physicochemical properties has numerous applications in pharmaceutical, chemical, hygienic, biodiesel and nowadays in food industries. during plant growth and development, as well as during postharvest and processing, different factors may affect caster oil properties. this study was conducted to evaluate oil content and physiochemical properties under different ...

turf is one of the most important ground covers and it is one of the main elements ofurban landscape design. plant growth regulators, such as growth inhibitors, are widelyused in turfgrass management to suppress shoot growth and inflorescences production.this experiment was conducted to determine the interactive effects of trinexapac-ethyl(te) and salinity on the growth, visual quality, and che...

according to high importance of sodding for fast creating green beds in all seasons, this experiment carried out with aimidentifying suitable substrate and covering plant including two lawn genus and dichondra with blend seed. the trial carried out as factorial experiment with three factors based on complete block design in three replications. experimental factors consisted of planting networks...

Brassinosteroids (BR) regulate plant tolerance to salt stress but the mechanisms underlying are not fully understood. This study was to investigate physiological mechanisms of 24-epibrassinolide (EBR)'s impact on salt stress tolerance in perennial ryegrass (Lolium perenne L.) The grass seedlings were treated with EBR at 0, 10, and 100 nM, and subjected to salt stress (250 mM NaCl). The grass ir...

to assess nickel-induced toxicity in plants, zea mays seeds were germinated and cultured on nutrient solution with nickel concentrations of 0, 50, 100 and 200 μm for a period of two weeks. its effects on the growth, hill reaction and photosynthetic pigments content were then investigated. the fresh and dry weight of leaves and roots increased in 50 μm nickel, but decreased in 100 and 200 μm. th...

Abstract Some plants whose leaves can be made into green grass jelly are Cyclea barbata (Cincau rambat bulu), Premna oblongata Miq perdu), and Cocculus orbiculatus jelly). However, the percentage of content contained in each plant leaf is not necessarily same. This study aims to determine chlorophyll, flavonoids, dietary fibre, water from these three fresh planted by researchers Semarang. The a...

The base of this review is to consider the relevant role that animal factors (potential milk yield, body weight, body condition score, state of lactation, parity and fertility) play on milk performance (considering the energy balance and the rumen function across the full lactation curve of animals) and milk quality (milk protein content, milk fat content, milk lactose content, vitamins, minera...

The objective of this study was to determine the influence of season on intake by sheep as well as certain selected qualitative characteristics of Panicum maximum (cv Gatton) (Guinea grass) at the mature growing stage. The lower DM content of the spring and summer grass (41.6 and 40.2%) did not hamper DOMI (48.1 and 26.7 W/d), respectively. The N concentration of the spring and summer grass was...

the measurement of chlorophyll content of leaf is as an appropriate criterion in breeding programs to increase the rate of leaf photosynthesis. in order to study the relationship between chlorophyll content and seed yield under saline conditions, 41 wheat genotypes were evaluated in two conditions (normal and salinity stress) at the research field of the national salinity research center (nsrc)...
