Sugar Transformation in Leaves of Canna Indica
It was previously demonstrated that, when solutions of hexose sugars such as glucose, fructose, or mannose are introduced into green leaves under aerobic conditions, an increase in sucrose is observed (l-3). The sucrose appears to be synthesized at the expense of the monosaccharides. Excised barley leaves infiltrated with 5 per cent glucose or fructose accumulated sucrose to a level of about 6 ...
متن کاملMolluscicidal activity of Punica granatum bark and Canna indica root.
The molluscicidal activity of Punica granatum Linn. (Punicaceae) and Canna indica Linn. (Cannaceae) against the snail Lymnaea acuminata was studied. The molluscicidal activity of P. granatum bark and C. indica root was found to be both time and dose dependent. The toxicity of P. granatum bark was more pronounced than that of C. indica. The 24 h LC(50) of the column-purified root of C. indica wa...
متن کاملMolecular basis of floral petaloidy: insights from androecia of Canna indica
Floral organs that take on the characteristics of petals can occur in all whorls of the monocot order Zingiberales. In Canna indica, the most ornamental or 'petaloid' parts of the flowers are of androecial origin and are considered staminodes. However, the precise nature of these petaloid organs is yet to be determined. In order to gain a better understanding of the genetic basis of androecial ...
متن کاملPurification and characterization of anti-HIV-1 protein from Canna indica L. leaves.
A novel 10 kDa protein with anti-HIV-1 reverse transcriptase (RT) inhibitory activity was isolated from leaves of Canna indica L. using a combination of native-PAGE and ammonium sulfate precipitation. HIV-1 and RT inhibitory activity was measured using a syncytium forming (deltaTat/Rev) MC99 virus in Tat/Rev transfected 1A2 cell line and ELISA technique, respectively. Edman N-terminal and inter...
متن کاملDivalent metal ion removal from aqueous solution by acid-treated and garlic-treated Canna indica roots
The biosorption of different metal ions (Cu, Zn, Ni, Pb and Co) by dried roots of Canna indica biomass was investigated using a batch sorption technique. The equilibrium retention capacities of the metal ions determined from the Langmuir isotherm showed that C. indica had the largest sorption capacity for Pb ions and the least sorption for Ni. The results also showed that garlic-treatment of C....
