Melatonin (MT) is considered as a plant growth regulator, has extensive functions and plays prominent role in ripening fruit senescence. However, there been no report regarding the influence of melatonin on biochemical changes avocado (Persea americana Mill.) during ripening. In this study, cultivar “034” was treated with MT at 0.1 mM 0.5 to evaluate relating quality storage 22 oC ± 1 75–80% re...

drought, as an abiotic stress inflicts destructive and harmful effects on plants at their different growth stages. plants react differently to drought. among their reactions is the production of such osmolytes as proline and glycine betaine. it seems that, through exogenous application of these materials, plant resistance to drought stress can be increased. therefore, a factorial experiment, ba...

Abstract Soil drought is a major problem in plant cultivation. This particularly true for thermophilic plants, such as maize, which grow areas often affected by precipitation shortage. The may be alleviated using growth and development stimulators. Therefore, the aim of study was to analyze effects 5-aminolevulinic acid (5-ALA), zearalenone (ZEN), triacontanol (TRIA) silicon (Si) on water manag...

Drought stress is a serious threat for sustainable crop production throughout the world especially in arid and semi-arid regions one of main constraints to sunflower (Helianthus annuus L.) production. Different mitigation strategies, including foliar spray osmolytes such as ?-aminobutyric acid (BABA), help combat drought conditions. A 2-year field study was conducted evaluate effect exogenous a...

the present study was conducted to investigate the effect of corn substitution with triticale in grower diets (zero, 50 and 100%) with/without exogenous enzyme supplementation on growth performance, digestive organs relative weight, jejunal morphology and blood lipids of quail chicks. two hundred and forty one-day-old unsexed japanese quail chicks were randomly assigned to a completely randomiz...

background: the preparation of endometrium for embryo reception and implantation are controlled by ovarian hormones. these hormones have distinct cyclical changes during estrus cycle. objective: the aim of this study was to evaluate the changes in morphology and morphometrical indices of endometrium by daily injections of estrogen and progesterone in ovariectomized mouse. materials and methods:...
