Legumes are of great economic importance. Depending on the species, they cultivated for food, fodder, green manure, and even as ornamentals. Legume seeds contain many valuable nutrients also anti-nutritional substances. The aim study is to compare important seed quality traits in pea (Pisum sativum L.), faba bean (Vicia white lupin (Lupinus albus narrow-leafed angustifolius yellow lupine luteus...

this experiment was conducted to screening phenolic acids in root exudates of three rice cultivars (neda, taichung and sepidrood) by high performance liquid chromatography (hplc) method and to evaluate allelopathic potential of these cultivars on growth characteristics of barnyardgrass weed. the experiment was arranged in factorial based on completely randomized design with four replications in...

The commonly consumed white rice is a highly refined staple cereal, which lack of almost all minerals and nutrients. pigmented rice, enriched with anthocyanin known for it’s taste health benefits. Colored (Oryza sativa L) genotypes are evaluated under this study. Twenty six were studied 8 yield components 12 physico-chemical, nutritional Anti-oxidative properties. Among the non-pigmented variet...

nickel and cadmium are heavy metals with some hazards for plant metabolism. the impacts of nickel chloride (0, 400 and 800 μm) in the presence of vitamin b complex (0, 30 and 60 ml from pharmacy commercial stock) and the impacts of cadmium chloride (0, 100, 200, 300, 400, 500 and 600 μl from 100 µm stock) in pot and cadmium nitrate (0, 100, 200, 400, 800, 1600 and 3200 μl from 100 µm stock) in ...

We investigated the role of phenolic and phenolic-related traits of the leaves of mountain birch (Betula pubescens ssp. czerepanovii) as determinants of their suitability for the growth of larvae of the geometrid Epirrita autumnata. As parameters of leaf suitability, we determined the contents of total phenolics, gallotannins, soluble and cell-wall-bound proanthocyanidins (PAS and PAB, respecti...

Microalgae contain high-value biochemical compounds including fatty acids (FA), protein and carotenoids, are promising bioresources to enhance nutrition of food animal feed. Important requirements for commercial strains rapid growth high productivities desirable compounds. As these traits believed be found in aquatic environments with fluctuating conditions, we collected microalgae from marine ...

in order to study the effects of different salinity levels on turnip (brassica rapa l.), an investigation was conducted at yasouj university, iran, in 2010. the effects of four salinity levels including 1.92, 9.87, 19.6 and 21.94 ds m-1 (20:1 ratio of nacl: cacl2 in hoagland solution) on germination, vegetative and maturity stages of turnip (baherghan landrace) were investigated. the results re...
