Rosemary (Rosmarinus officinalis L.) is an important medicinal plant that contained a wide range of secondary metabolites such as rosmarinic acid. In this study, essential oil content and composition and rosmarinc acid were determined at three phenological stages (before flowering, full flowering and fruit set stages). Hydro distillation method was used for essential oil extraction and GC and ...

Abstract Environmental adaptation of deciduous fruit trees largely depends on their ability to synchronize growth and development with seasonal climate change. Winter dormancy flower buds is a key process prevent frost damage ensure reproductive success. Temperature crucial environmental stimulus influencing the timing flowering, only occurring after fulfillment certain temperature requirements...

around the world for these traits. Peach is particularly amenable for forward genetic studies because it has a small genome (approximately half the size of the P. trichocarpa genome) with little duplication history, is self-fertile, has a generation time as short as 2–4 yr and significant genomic resources are available (Shulaev et al., 2008). Recent work has demonstrated the utility of peach t...

The study of plant under environmental conditions leads to an appreciation of their physical and chemical requirements for growth and reproduction. It contributes to increase the knowledge of where the plants grow. This study was conducted to determine the main autecological characteristics of Salvia hydrangea L. which is an endemic plant distributed in Mazanadarn province, Iran. The habitats o...

Transcriptomic and gene expression analysis have greatly facilitated the identification characterization of transcriptional regulatory factors effectors involved in dormancy progression other physiological processes orchestrated during bud development peach temperate fruit species. Gene measurements are most usually based on average values from several or many individual buds. We performed sing...

late spring frost damage is the main factor that limits apricot production in iran.this research was aimed to evaluate the damage of freezing in two apricot cultivarflowers: ʽʽnasiriʼʼ and ʽʽnori-dirrasʼʼ during spring 2011. reproductive organs of thesecultivars at two phenological stages, popcorn and full bloom, were transferred toprogrammable freezer with temperature touch down from 5°c to -1...
