In vitro germination characteristics of maize pollen to detect biological activity of environmental pollutants.
In vitro pollen germination was examined as a method to determine the mutagenic and physiological effects of environmental pollutants on higher organisms. Results were presented indicating that mutations could be distinguished by their in vitro germination characteristics if sporophytes homozygous for the mutated allele were tested. The addition of agents directly into the in vitro medium was s...
متن کاملMaize pollen test systems to detect nondisjunction.
Three pollen test systems to detect the induction of nondisjunction in maize are actively being explored. (1) Each member of a tetrad of haploid microspores produced by meiosis contains a single chromosome 6 which carries the only nucleolar organizing region in the maize genome. Thus, each member of a normal tetrad contains one nucleolus. If nondisjunction took place at the first or second meio...
متن کاملcomparison of catalytic activity of heteropoly compounds in the synthesis of bis(indolyl)alkanes.
heteropoly acids (hpa) and their salts have advantages as catalysts which make them both economically and environmentally attractive, strong br?nsted acidity, exhibiting fast reversible multi-electron redox transformations under rather mild conditions, very high solubility in polar solvents, fairly high thermal stability in the solid states, and efficient oxidizing ability, so that they are imp...
15 صفحه اولIn Vitro Germination of Avocado Pollen
Abstract. Avocado pollen was germinated in vitro without recourse to germination on the style. The technique employed involved inclusion of pollen grains in liquid medium of 15% sucrose and minerals and application of 1 or 2 drops on 1% agar plus 15% sucrose and minerals. No germination was obtained on agar plus sucrose without placement of pollen in liquid first. Of the cultivars tested, 'Etti...
متن کاملthe effect of taftan pozzolan on the compressive strength of concrete in the environmental conditions of oman sea (chabahar port)
cement is an essential ingredient in the concrete buildings. for production of cement considerable amount of fossil fuel and electrical energy is consumed. on the other hand for generating one tone of portland cement, nearly one ton of carbon dioxide is released. it shows that 7 percent of the total released carbon dioxide in the world relates to the cement industry. considering ecological issu...
