Plant zinc finger proteins (ZFPs) comprise a large protein family and they are mainly involved in abiotic stress tolerance. Although Arabidopsis RING/FYVE/PHD ZFP At5g62460 (AtRZFP) is found to bind to zinc, whether it is involved in abiotic stress tolerance is still unknown. In the present study, we characterized the roles of AtRZFP in response to abiotic stresses. The expression of AtRZFP was...

Langenfeld, M. G. (University of South Dakota, Vermillion) and P. F. Smith. Phosphorus distribution in pleuropneumonia-like and L-type organisms. J. Bacteriol. 86:1216-1219. 1963.-Sterol-requiring and sterol-nonrequiring pleuropneumonia-like organisms, salt-requiring and salt-nonrequiring L forms, and their parent bacteria, were analyzed for total, acid-soluble, lipid, and nucleic acid phosphor...

The Cys2/His2-type zinc finger proteins have been implicated in different cellular processes involved in plant development and stress responses. Through microarray analysis, a salt-responsive zinc finger protein gene ZFP179 was identified and subsequently cloned from rice seedlings. ZFP179 encodes a 17.95 kDa protein with two C2H2-type zinc finger motifs having transcriptional activation activi...

To determine seed storage protein banding patterns in some bread wheat cultivars and the similarity of banding patterns among different cultivars, an experiment based on seed storage protein electrophoresis (albumin and globulin) was performed. Water and salt soluble proteins were extracted in sixteen wheat cultivars using polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis and banding pattern was obtained. Stu...

three experiments were conducted in tissue culture and biotechnology laboratory of horticulture department of mohaghegh ardabili university in 2012. for the regeneration of plant from seed, different concentrations of naoh (5, 10, 15, 20 m) and various scarification methods with sandpaper (soft scarification, medium scarification and hard scarification) were used based on completely randomized ...

1. The effect of ultraviolet irradiation on acid-soluble and neutral-salt-soluble calf-skin collagen was studied by chromatography, gel filtration, amino acid analysis and sedimentation of the sub-units, and the reaction kinetics of degradation were obtained from viscosity and optical rotation measurements. 2. It was demonstrated that, whereas the structure of neutral-salt-soluble calf-skin col...

Fertilizer management is one of the easiest and most practical ways combating salt stress. This study was done to evaluate alleviative effects nitrogen phosphorus on growth tolerance salt-affected sorghum. A controlled organized in a randomized block design with three replications conducted, testing rates (N0: 0 kg ha−1, N1: 180 N2: 360 N ha−1) (P0: P2O5 P1: 60 P2: 120 ha−1). Nitrogen applicati...
