seeds of nine sugar beet lines: five drought tolerant, two susceptible, and two medium tolerant were washed, sterilised, dried, and sown in water agar medium for germination test. seedling growth characters such as cotyledon fresh weight (cfw), cotyledon dry weight (cdw), root fresh weight (rfw), root dry weight (rdw), and root length (rl) were determined after the end of 28 days period of expe...

Isoflavone content in various parts of six soybean cultivars and soybean sprout during germination was analyzed by high performance liquid chromatography. The parts analyzed were seed coat, cotyledon, and axis for seeds and whole sprout, root, hypocotyl, and cotyledon for sprout. Two cultivars, Aga3 which is known to have the smallest seed size and the highest isoflavone content among the Korea...

normal 0 false false false en-us x-none ar-sa background: dry weight (dw) is an important concept related to patients undergoing hemodialysis. conventional method seems to be time consuming and operator dependent. bio impedance analysis (bia) is a new and simple method reported to be an accurate way for estimating dw. in this study, we aimed to compare the conventional estimation of dw with mea...

Pseudomonas putida CA-3 has been shown to accumulate the biodegradable plastic polyhydroxyalkanoate (PHA) when fed styrene or polystyrene pyrolysis oil as the sole carbon and energy source under nitrogen limiting growth conditions (67 mg nitrogen per litre at time 0). Batch fermentation of P. putida CA-3 grown on styrene or polystyrene pyrolysis oil in a stirred tank reactor yields PHA at 30% o...

BACKGROUND Dry weight (DW) is an important concept related to patients undergoing hemodialysis. Conventional method seems to be time consuming and operator dependent. Bio impedance analysis (BIA) is a new and simple method reported to be an accurate way for estimating DW. In this study, we aimed to compare the conventional estimation of DW with measuring DW by BIA. MATERIALS AND METHODS This ...

When reciprocal crosses are made between different pea genotypes, there is a strong maternal influence on mature seed size of the reciprocal hybrids, i.e. their dry weights are similar to that of seeds obtained from their maternal parents. Reciprocal crosses between pea varieties having very different mature seed sizes were used to investigate how the maternal genotype controls seed development...

Establishment of an efficient and reproducible regeneration protocol is one of the basic prerequisites for genetic transformation of any crop plant. In vitro culture of lentil has proven to be difficult. In spite of a number of reports on the regeneration of this plant, very few satisfying and reproducible protocol has yet been reported. This study carried out for investigation of diff...
