this experiment was carried out at agricultural research station of gorgan during summer 2006 to study the effects of corn and green gram intercropping on forage yield, and weed biomass. the experimental design was rcbd with twelve treatments and four replications. a local green gram and corn single cross 550 were the crops employed. the experimental treatments consisted of sole corn and sole g...

BACKGROUND AND AIMS Seeds of carob, Chinese senna, date and fenugreek are hard due to thickened endosperm cell walls containing mannan polymers. How the radicle is able penetrate these thickened walls to complete seed germination is not clearly understood. The objective of this study was to determine if radicle emergence is related to the production of endo-beta-mannanase to weaken the mannan-r...

The methanol extracts of 168 plant species from 68 families were evaluated for their inhibitory activity against lettuce seedling elongation. Among the plant species tested, 12 species had EC50 values for radicle growth inhibition ranging from 0.01 to 5.00 mg fresh weight equivalent mL. Enterolobium contortisiliquum, a traditionally used herbal medicine, exhibited the strongest inhibitory activ...

Vicilin and legumin, the storage globulins of mature dry vetch (Vicia sativa L.) seeds, are found in protein bodies which are present not only in the cotyledons, but also in the radicle, axis and shoot (together, for reasons of simplicity, here called axis). When at 24 h after the start of imbibition (hai) the radicle breaks through the seed coat a major part of the globulins in the axis has al...

introduction: nitrogen is an essential element forplants and in combination withelements such as carbon, oxygen, hydrogen and sulfur results ineven more valuable materials such as amino acids, nucleic acids, alkaloids. hibiscus tea (hibiscus sabdariffa ) from malvaceaefamily is known by different names in different parts of the world. in iran it is calledthe maki tea, tea meccaorred tea.as an i...

A number of the components of the tissues contain in their molecules either phosphoric or sulfuric acid. The phosphoric acid radicle is contained in the monoand polynucleotides, and the sulfuric acid radicle in chondroitinand mucoitin-sulfuric acids. In all these compounds the acid radicle is linked in ester form to either a carbohydrate or a polyhydric alcohol. On long acquaintance with substa...

normal 0 false false false en-us x-none ar-sa background: dry weight (dw) is an important concept related to patients undergoing hemodialysis. conventional method seems to be time consuming and operator dependent. bio impedance analysis (bia) is a new and simple method reported to be an accurate way for estimating dw. in this study, we aimed to compare the conventional estimation of dw with mea...

abstract coontail (ceratophyllum demersum) and watermilfoil (myriophyllum spicatum) are current submersed weeds in many fresh waters of iran. the excessive growth of these plants causes the reduction in utilization of water resources and making some ecological and economical damages in these areas. the aim of this study was to determine the response of two submerged aquatic weeds of coontail an...
