Soybean (Glycine max) seeds store significant amounts of their biomass as protein, levels of which reflect the carbon and nitrogen received by the developing embryo. The relationship between carbon and nitrogen supply during filling and seed composition was examined through a series of embryo-culturing experiments. Three distinct ratios of carbon to nitrogen supply were further explored through...

In order to evaluate eight different protein sources in honey bee nutrition, some experiments were conducted as a completely randomized designs with four replicates and three steps incubator, field and overwintering in Isfahan region. Protein sources were lentil flour, soybean flour, soybean meal, bread yeast, wheat gluten, skim milk powder, fish meal and Pollen. Results showed that the longevi...

in order to evaluate the effect of different levels of salinity and three nitrogen nutrition on biochemical reactions and changes in dry weight of shoot and root on psyllium (plantago ovata f.), a glasshouse experiment in a complete randomized design with three replications in 2009 at university of zabol was conducted. salinity treatments in this experiment were 0, 100 and 200 mm of nacl and ni...

Colletotrichum truncatum is the most common pathogen fungus associated with soybean anthracnose. Although the lignin-degrading enzyme laccase has been implicated in pathogenicity of a wide range of plant pathogenic fungi, its biological role in the Colletotrichum-soybean disease system is unknown. The extent of the infection in our country led us to examine laccase production in Argentinean Col...

This paper proposed a simulation model of soybean growth which is effected by major nutrient factors, nitrogen, phosphorus and potassium. A feedforward neural network is used as a basis of the modelling. The combination of different percentage of nitrogen, phosphorus, potassium, time steps and the collected height data of the soybean are used as inputs. The model can predict the height at desig...

The objective of this study was to assess the effect of substituting corn with soybean hulls on the ingestive behavior and nitrogen balance of Santa Ines lambs. A total of 25 lambs with an initial body weight of 20±2 kg at approximately six months of age, sheltered individually in stalls (1.10 m×1.0 m), considering an entirely casual experimental delineation. Soybean hulls were substituted for ...

Lipases are the special kind of esterases belong to subclass 1 of hydrolytic enzyme class 3 and have been assigned subsub class 3.1.1 due to their specificity for carboxylic acid ester bonds. The biological function of lipase is to catalyze the hydrolysis of triacylglycerols to give free fatty acid, diacylglycerols, mono-acylglycerols and glycerol. They constitute the most important group of bi...

Soybean (Glycine max Merr.) is the world's most widely grown legume and provides an important source of protein and oil. Global soybean production and yield per hectare increased steadily over the past century with improved agronomy and development of cultivars suited to a wide range of latitudes. In order to meet the needs of a growing world population without unsustainable expansion of the la...

The effects of the composition and rheology of the fermentation medium on the antibiotic production by Streptomyces hygroscopicus CH-7 were studied. To increase the yields of hexaene H-85 and elaiophylin, the basic fermentation medium was reformulated using different carbon (glucose, lactose, ribose, fructose and trehalose) and nitrogen (isatin-Schiff bases) sources. The maximum yields of hexae...
