The genus Polianthes belongs to the subfamily Agavoideae of the Asparagaceae family formerly known as Agavaceae. The genus is endemic to México and comprises about 15 species, among them is Polianthes tuberosa L. The aim of this work was to study and characterize the embryo sac and early embryo development of this species in order to generate basic knowledge for its use in taxonomy, in vitro fe...

tuberose (polianthes tuberosa l.) is one of the most important bulbous ornamental crops of tropical and subtropical areas. the objective of the present study was to determine the interaction effects of salinity and irrigation intervals on growth and flowering of two important commercial cultivars (‘mahallati’ and ‘dezfuli’) of tuberose (polianthes tuberosa l.). irrigation treatments consisted o...

BACKGROUND Based on Iranian traditional medicine, the root cause of anxiety is due to the heart and brain diseases. The use of aromatic substances is one of the basic treatments for the heart and brain diseases in Iranian traditional medicine. Concerning the prevalence of test anxiety among students, this study was conducted to determine the effect of inhalation of essential oils of Polianthes ...

Polianthes tuberosa is a commercially valuable flower crop in the Mekong Delta of Vietnam that is propagated by the harvesting and planting of bulbs. The cultivation of P. tuberosa is complicated by an endemic nematode infection that damages a high proportion of the plants. Based on morphological criteria and ribosomal RNA gene sequencing, we have determined that the infection is caused by an A...

Recent research on seeds of bio-diesel plants like Jatropha curcas, constituting 40-50% bio-crude oil indicates its potential as one of the most promising alternatives to conventional sources of energy. Also, limited studies on utilization of de-oiled cake have revealed that Jatropha bio-waste has good potential to be used as organic fertilizers produced via aerobic and anaerobic treatment. How...

NiO nanoparticle has been synthesized by a greener method using Polianthes tuberosa plant extract. The was characterized UV-Visible, FT-IR, XRD and SEM instrumental techniques. absorption band appeared at 269 nm in UV-Visible spectrum supported the formation of nanoparticles. IR analysis showed broad 554 cm-1 characteristics From results, crystalline size shape nanoparticles determined to be 3....
