Absorption of Growth-Promoting Substances by Cuttings

Pattern of Rooting and Growth of Cuttings of Some Species of Insecticidal and Medicinal Importance as Affected by Growth Promoting Substances

This study was designed to examine the effects of promoting substances on bud retention, rooting and plantlets survival of rooted cuttings on selected tree species using growth promoting substances. Stem cuttings were treated with rooting-promoting substances, planted in plastic pots filled with top soil and arranged using a completely randomized design (CRD) in a screen house. Stem cuttings of...

Gelatin as a Source of Growth-Promoting Substances for Bacteria.

In the course of studies on the nutritional requirements of some of the more exacting bacteria it wase found that the addition of certain brands of gelatin to a simplified synthetic medium caused growth of a number of bacteria which were unable to develop in the same medium without the gelatin. The use of gelatin in amounts ordinarily employed for culture media produced results which were compa...

Growth Promoting Effect of Hyaluronan Synthesis Promoting Substances on Japanese Eel Leptocephali

Hyaluronans (HAs) are glycosaminoglycans produced in the bodies of Anguilliform and Elopiform leptocephali, and play a role in metabolic energy. In mammals, HA synthesis-promoting substances (HASPS) up-regulate the expression of HA synthase (HAS) and increase the amount of HA in the body. In this study, Japanese eel leptocephali were fed a HASPS containing diet. We analyzed HAS1s and HAS2 expre...
