The aim of the study was to identify trends and dynamics changes in chemical biochemical properties soil induced by rotational grazing farmed deer. Soils pH content mineral nitrogen forms, total nitrogen, organic carbon were determined activity three enzymes. monitored soils slightly acidic neutral, with 1 mol KCldm−3 ranging from 6.37 7.03. contents carbon, range 9.42–19.37 gkg−1 1.13–2.24 gkg...

the process of adaptation to cold is an important mechanism in wheat cultivars to tolerate cold stress. this work was aimed to calrify the relationship between vernalization requirement with cold tolerance by assessing physiological changes in cold susceptible spring and tolerant winter wheat (triticum aestivum, cvs. kohdasht and cheyyene, respectively) in environmentally controlled conditions,...

Rice is sensitive to cold stress, and cold tolerance in rice is a complex trait. In the present study, DNA methylation alterations induced by cold stress were examined in two contrasting rice genotypes, Li-Jiang-Xin-Tuan-Hei-Gu (LTH) and IR64, by methylation-sensitive amplified polymorphism analysis. At the seedling stage, a remarkable increase in DNA methylation under cold stress was detected ...

The olive flounder (Paralichthys olivaceus) is an economically important flatfish in marine aquaculture with a broad thermal tolerance ranging from 14 to 23°C. Cold-tolerant flounder that can survive during the winter season at a temperature of less than 14°C might facilitate the understanding of the mechanisms underlying the response to cold stress. In this study, the transcriptional response ...

Mahuang Gancao Ganjiang Decoction (MGGD) can effectively alleviate the symptoms of the patients suffering from exogenous cold stress. However, the curative mechanism has not been fully clarified. This study was designed to investigate the effect of MGGD on the apoptosis of lymphocytes induced by cold stress in mice. The model mice were randomly divided into four groups: the normal control group...

objective(s): hyperthermia is one of the most common environmental stressors that affect multi-biological systems in the body including the central nervous system as well as the hematopoietic organs. the objective of the present study was to investigate the protective role of ethanolic extract of propolis (eep) on some selective stress markers, hematological, biochemical, and histopathological ...

Aquaporin proteins (AQPs) have been shown to be involved in abiotic stress responses. However, the precise role of AQPs, especially in response to cold stress, is not understood in wheat (Triticum aestivum). In the present study, quantitative real time polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR) analysis revealed that TaAQP7 expression increased in leaves, but decreased in roots after cold treatment. E...

the effects of dietary supplementation of grape seed extract (gse) and vitamin c on carcass characteristics, gut morphology and ileal microflora in broiler chickens exposed to chronic heat stress were examined. experimental diets included a control diet (without additive), 3 levels of gse (150, 300, 450 mg/kg of diet), and vitamin c (300 mg/kg of diet). each of the five diets was fed to 5 repli...

Rice (Oryza sativa L.) cultivars show impairment of growth in response to environmental stresses such as cold at the early seedling stage. Locally adapted weedy rice is able to survive under adverse environmental conditions, and can emerge in fields from greater soil depth. Cold-tolerant weedy rice can be a good genetic source for developing cold-tolerant, weed-competitive rice cultivars. An in...

The best protection against cold and flu viruses is a healthy immune system. Chronic stress, a poor diet, and other factors can weaken the immune system, making one more susceptible to viral and bacterial attack. Herbs from around the world traditionally have been used for centuries to help strengthen the immune system and to help relieve some of the unpleasant symptoms associated with colds an...
