Soil salinity and water deficit are major problems for development of agricultural production. In this study, effects of growth promoting microorganisms (inoculation with Piriformospora indica and two isolates of Streptomyces sp.) on the leaf yield and absorption rate of some elements in leaves and roots of stevia plant was investigated under salinity conditions for two consecutive years (2016-...

The present study aimed to investigate the variety of elements, chemical compounds and their corresponding functional groups in whole plant, leaves, seeds Senna tora. A preliminary phytochemical analysis has revealed presence secondary metabolites including alkaloids, flavonoids, tannins, terpenoids, cardiac active glycosides, phenolics, etc. Gas Chromatography Mass Spectrophotometry (GC-MS) le...

We show that, when the dimension N of the Hilbert space is a prime power, mutually unbiased bases are naturally related to the symmetry group that leaves (generalized) Bell states invariant. We show how the mutually unbiased bases can be expressed in terms of the (multiplication of the) associated finite field of N elements, and derive a new solution for the mean king’s problem.

Considerable progress has been made in identifying genes that are involved in the evolution of plant morphologies. Elements of the ABC model of flower development are conserved throughout angiosperms, and homologous MADS-box genes function in gymnosperm reproduction. Candidate gene and mapping analyses of floral symmetry, sex determination, inflorescence architecture, and compound leaves provid...

BACKGROUND Moringa oleifera (MO) and M. stenopetala (MS) (family Moringaceae; order Brassicales) are multipurpose tree/shrub species. They thrive under marginal environmental conditions and produce nutritious edible parts. The aim of this study was to determine the mineral composition of different parts of MO and MS growing in their natural environments and their potential role in alleviating h...

Background and Objectives: The present study was conducted to evaluate the presence of biochemical contents and trace elements, and detect phytochemicals in the edible part extracts of Asparagus officinalis DC and Chlorophytum comosum Linn by HPTLC. Materials and Methods: The biochemical contents and trace elements were determined by different biochemical methods, and trace elements’ presence ...

BACKGROUND The determination of micro-, macroelements and heavy metals in the soil-grapevine-wine system is extremely important for the wine industry, the grape and wine quality, and also for consumer health. The quantitative analysis of 10 elements: Na, Ca, Mg, Fe, Cu, Zn, Pb, Cd, Ni, Co were made in soil at different depths and also in grapevines (leaves and canes). For grape juice and wine t...
