Peppermint (Mentha × piperita L.) was transformed with various gene constructs to evaluate the utility of metabolic engineering for improving essential oil yield and composition. Oil yield increases were achieved by overexpressing genes involved in the supply of precursors through the 2C-methyl-D-erythritol 4-phosphate (MEP) pathway. Two-gene combinations to enhance both oil yield and compositi...

this study carried out to determine the differences between oil content and fatty acid compositions of 12 exotic and 6 local safflower genotypes. the experiments were arranged in randomized complete blocks design with three replications in research station of ferdowsi university of mashhad. the results of variance analysis showed that the differences of seed yield, oil content and fatty acid co...

safflower (carthamus tinctorius l.) is one of the oilseed crops adaption on a wide range circumstance of iran edaphic, which deficiency of micronutrients cause in its quality and quantity yield. to assign the effect of amount and utility period of micronutrients fertilizer on grain yield, yield components and characters of oil quality of safflower var mexi141 an experiment by factorial base ran...

In order to study the influence of compost and biofertilizer on yield and essential oil of dill (Anethum graveolens L.), an experiment was conducted as factorial experiment in the base of randomized complete blocks design with eight treatments and three replications at research field of Agriculture Company of Ran in Firouzkuh of Iran in 2012. The factors were compost in four levels (0,...

To survey the effects of chemical and biological phosphorus on the yield and essential oil of Satureja hortensis L. as an important medicinal plant, factorial experiment was conducted based on randomized complete block design with three replicates at Research Station of Faculty of Agriculture, Urmia University in 2011. The treatments were chemical phosphorus fertilizer with four levels (0, 50, ...
