to evaluate the competition between wheat and wild mustard (sinapis arvensis) in nitrogen and herbicide levels, an experiment was conducted in ramin agriculture and natural resources university, at 2007-8. a split-plots design in rcbd (randomized complete blocks design) with three replications was used for this experiment. the nitrogen levels (0, 60, 120 and 180kg/ha) arranged in main plots. ea...

over the past 20 years since tribenuron-methyl herbicide registration in iran, reports of erratic control of broadleaf weeds with it have increased in wheat fields of aq qala. in order to evaluate the incidence of resistance in wild mustard (sinapis arvensis) and turnipweed (rapistrum rugosum) to tribenuron-methyl herbicide, dose-response assays were conducted during the years 1390 and 1391 at ...

abstract to evaluate the effect of different levels of nitrogen fertilizer on competitive ability of canola against wild mustard interference, a split plot trial based on a randomized complete block design with 3 replications was carried out. experimental treatment were amounts of nitrogen fertilizer of urea (46% nitrogen) in 4 levels (100, 150, 200 and 250 kgn/ha) and 5 wild mustard densities ...

Strain L mouse fibroblasts growing in vitro were exposed to varying concentrations of nitrogen and sulfur mustards, and the surviving fraction of cells was measured by their ability to form macroscopically visible colonies. Nitrogen mustard required 3 hours but sulfur mustard less than 1 hour to exert maximum killing effect. The mean lethal dose (D37) for nitrogen mustard acting for 1 hour on a...

Nitrogen mustards alkylate DNA primarily at the N7 position of guanine. Using an approach analogous to that of the Maxam-Gilbert procedure for DNA sequence analysis, we have examined the relative frequencies of alkylation for a number of nitrogen mustards at different guanine-N7 sites on a DNA fragment of known sequence. Most nitrogen mustards were found to have similar patterns of alkylation, ...

Effectiveness of different doses of neem extracts and a synthetic organic insecticide against mustard aphid was studied in the experimental farm of the Oilseed Research Centre, Bangladesh Agricultural Research Institute (BARI), Joydebpur, Gazipur, during two consecutive years 2010-2011 and 2011-2012 for the control of mustard aphid. Eight treatments were evaluated against mustard aphid under fi...

Calcium (Ca) plays important role in plant development and response to various environmental stresses. However, its involvement in mitigation of heavy metal stress in plants remains elusive. In this study, we examined the effect of Ca (50 mM) in controlling cadmium (Cd) uptake in mustard (Brassica juncea L.) plants exposed to toxic levels of Cd (200 mg L(-1) and 300 mg L(-1)). The Cd treatment ...

Objective: To assess long term outcome of patients who underwent Mustard or Senning repair for transposition of the great arteries up to 30 years earlier. Design: Retrospective review of medical records. Setting: The six university hospitals in Belgium with paediatric cardiology departments. Patients: 339 patients were reviewed, of whom 124 underwent the Mustard procedure and 215 the Senning pr...

Transgenic Indian mustard [Brassica juncea (L.) Czern.] plants overproducing the enzymes gamma-glutamylcysteine synthetase (ECS) or glutathione synthetase (GS) were shown previously to have increased levels of the metal-binding thiol peptides phytochelatins and glutathione, and enhanced Cd tolerance and accumulation. Furthermore, transgenic Indian mustard plants overexpressing adenosine triphos...

BACKGROUND AND AIMS The human epidermal growth factor receptor type 2 (HER-2) seems to be sensitive to nitrogen mustard, because nitrogen mustard heavily alkylates on guanine. In this study, we examined the effects of nitrogen mustard on cell growth and expression of HER-2 proteins in cultured human breast cancer cells. METHOD The HER-2 protein levels on the cell surface of breast cancer cell...
