During angiosperm evolution, innovations in vegetative and reproductive organs have resulted in tremendous morphological diversity, which has played a crucial role in the ecological success of flowering plants. Morindeae (Rubiaceae) display considerable diversity in growth form, inflorescence architecture, flower size, and fruit type. Lianescent habit, head inflorescence, small flower, and mult...

dorema aucheri boiss. (apiaceae) is an endemic plant growing in iran. this plant is used as food and its extracts are recommended for the treatment of a wide range of diseases. to conduct this study, leaf, stem, and flower of d. aucheri were collected from near yasouje, iran. antioxidant and antimicrobialeffects of methanol extracts were measured. further, total phenolic,flavonoid, anthocyanin,...

BACKGROUND The DefH9-iaaM gene fusion which is expressed specifically in placenta/ovules and promotes auxin-synthesis confers parthenocarpic fruit development to eggplant, tomato and tobacco. Transgenic DefH9-iaaM eggplants and tomatoes show increased fruit production due mainly to an improved fruit set. However, the weight of the fruits is also frequently increased. RESULTS DefH9-iaaM strawb...

In order to examine the effect of the quantity of Nitrogen fertilizer and bush density on vegetative and productive function of henna medicinal plant (Lawsonia inermis)  factorial experimentation in the form of block plan was carried in three stages in agriculture research center in south of kerman  province in corp of 2012.

Background: The aim of this study was to clarify the relationship between the sexual reproduction and the resource allocation in a natural Polygonatum humile population grown in a temperate mixed forest gap. For this aim, the plant size, the node which flower was formed, the fruiting rate, and the dry weight of each organ were monitored from June 2014 to August 2015. Results: Firstly, in 3–13-l...

to investigate effect of calcium and growth medium on lilium (asiatic hybrid lilium bulbs “tresor” cultivar) and nutrients uptake, a factorial experiment based on completely randomized design was conducted by three levels of calcium in nutrient solution (2, 4 and 6 mm*) and five growth media (100% perlite, 70% perlite + 30% cocopeat, 50% perlite + 50% cocopeat, 30% perlite + 70% cocopeat, 100% ...

In this paper, we handle a remote ikebana (i.e., flower arrangement) system with olfactory and haptic media. In the system, a teacher or a student can hold a flower, adjust the length of the held flower’s stem with a pair of scissors, and impale the flower on a flower pinholder in a 3-D virtual space. We investigate the influence of the size of smell space (defined as a sphere in which we can p...
