Populations of Eruca sativa (Brassicaceae) derived from arid and Mediterranean habitats exhibit ecotypic differentiation. Here, pooled DNA sequencing was used to assess adaptive genome differentiation in the two ecotypes. Differentiated SNP loci were scanned with empirical F ST outlier method by correlating allele frequencies environmental parameters. Genetic diversity values relatively higher ...

The objective of this study was to evaluate the effects different substrates and concentrations nutrient solutions in production arugula (Eruca sativa Miller) microgreens grown a protected environment at campus Faculty Agronomy Federal University Rio Grande do Sul (UFRGS), Porto Alegre, Brazil. treatments consisted combination five commercial substrates, CSC® vermiculite (S1), Green-Up phenolic...

Crude extracts from olive leaves and arugula seeds were screened for its in vitro antibacterial activity. Antibacterial activity was determined by using disc diffusion method against three bacteria (, Staphylococcus aurous and Bacillus cereus). Minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) and minimum bactericidal concentration (MBC) have been determined. Gallic acid was used as a standard drug for th...

Eruca sativa is an important crop as medicinally as well as for salad purpose. It belongs to family Bracicaceae and being used as genetic resource to improve the other species of Brassica. The seedlings developed from treated seeds with sodium azide at concentration ranged (1x 10 to 5x10 M) showed wide -3 -3 variation in plant growth (plant height, leaf area, fresh and dry weight) upto 60 days ...

Silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) are widely used in commercial products, and there are growing concerns about their impact on the environment. Information about the molecular interaction of AgNPs with plants is lacking. To increase our understanding of the mechanisms involved in plant responses to AgNPs and to differentiate between particle specific and ionic silver effects we determined the morpho...
