to assess the effect of non chemical management of weed control on forage sorghum (sorghum bicolor) a field study was conducted in varamin, iran during 2010 crop year in a three- replicated- split factorial experiment laid out in randomized complete block design with four weeding levels (w1= one time cultivation at 3-leaf stage using a duck foot cultivator, w2= two times cultivation at 3 and 5-...

Heavy metal pollutionis one of the largest problems in the Environment and human being. In industrial and urban areas trees can give better quantifications for pollutant concentrations and atmospheric deposition than non-biological samples. In order to know ability of Fraxinus excelsior­ (Ash tree) to reduce the concentrations of heavy metals and compared with the concentration of thes...

OBJECTIVE To study detail microscopic evaluation and physiochemical analysis of Dillenia indica (D. indica) leaf. METHODS Fresh leaf sample and dried power of the leaf were studied macroscopically and microscopically. Preliminary phytochemical investigation of plant material was done. Other WHO recommended parameters for standardizations were also performed. RESULTS The detail microscopy re...

Seabuckthorn (SBT; Hippophae rhamnoides L.) is a thorny bush found growing wild in high altitude cold deserts of India. Present study involved pharmacognostical (Botanical and physicochemical) characterization and phytochemical investigation of SBT leaves. Botanical characterization revealed the presence of large amount of stellate trichomes. Among physicochemical parameters, total ash was foun...

Somatic embryogenesis has been accomplished from tender leaf base explant of date palm (Phoenix dactylifera L.). Three to five mm long tender leaf base explants derived from the meristamatic region of 2-3 year old offshoots of date palm cv. Kheneizi were cultured on Murashige and Skoog (MS) basal medium supplemented with 10, 50, 100 and 150 mg l 2,4-dichlorophenoxy acetic acid (2,4-D) and incub...

PREMISE OF RESEARCH A large number of fossil coryphoid palm wood and fruits have been reported from the Deccan Intertrappean beds of India. We document the oldest well-preserved and very rare costapalmate palm leaves and inflorescence like structures from the same horizon. METHODOLOGY A number of specimens were collected from Maastrichtian-Danian sediments of the Deccan Intertrappean beds, Gh...

CBR (California Bearing Ratio) value is usually used to determine the bearing capacity of a soil type. Soil conditions with low are often found in clay types. There several ways increase clay, one which by adding palm bunch ash. In this research, an analysis changes addition 5%, 7.5%, and 10% oil The results showed that largest was obtained at ash, 7.493%.

The aim of this study was to establish pharmacognostic profiles of dried leaf powder of Cardiospermum halicacabum Linn. and dried seed hull powder of Hydnocarpus pentandra (Buch.-Ham.) Oken. The present study investigates various qualitative and quantitative parameters like microscopic evaluation of plant powder, physicochemical constants and preliminary phytochemical analysis. Microscopic eval...
