in this study the effects of source limitation on grain yield of twelve barley cultivars (‘aras’,‘jonub’,‘reihan’,‘zarjou’,‘sararoud’,‘sahra’,‘fajr30’,‘karoun’,‘gorgan’,‘makouei ’and ‘nosrat(’ under post anthesis water deficiency were studied. source limitation treatments were included that control, removing of awn, leaves below flag leaf, flag leaf and spike photosynthesis. all source limitati...

studies manipulating the source-sink relationships during post anthesis in wheat have shown inconsistent results, concluding that wheat yield could be either sinkor source-limited. the aim of this study was to determine source limitation degree of 36 iranian wheat cultivars andto investigate their intrinsic compensatory mechanism in response to source size reduction. a split plot design based o...

The concept of source and sink strength is presently well-recognized and accepted by the scientific community as a pertinent approach describing the mechanisms of carbohydrate partitioning into the different and competing organs at a whole plant or canopy scales. Sink–source relationships have a clear role in the size of sink organs. Besides the effect on organ size, sink/source ratio might also...

the potential of tobacco waste as a viable source of medicinally important flavonoids like rutin has been investigated. three flavonoids, apigenin, quercetin and rutin, have been isolated from waste tobacco leaves, and their identities have been confirmed by uv-visible, 1h-nmr and 13c-nmr spectroscopy. by using analytical hplc, the amount of rutin present in the tobacco leaves, before and after...

Analysis of cassava cultivars and interspecific hybrids leaves revealed a protein percentage ranges from 21% to 32%. Polyploid types did not show significant increase. Varieties with low HCN content can be selected to enrich flour of cassava and other grain crops. Interspecific hybrids with very vigorous vegetative growth are good sources of protein. They can be used for raising...

Clones of aspen (Populus tremuloides Michx.) were identified that differ in biomass production in response to O(3) exposure. (14)Carbon tracer studies were used to determine if the differences in biomass response were linked to shifts in carbon allocation and carbon partitioning patterns. Rooted cuttings from three aspen Clones (216, O(3) tolerant; 271, intermediate; and 259, O(3) sensitive) we...
