Rice spotted leaf 6 (spl6) mutant produces lesions caused by spontaneous cell death in the absence of pathogenic infection. Expression of this genetic trait was developmentally programmed. After the tillering stage, small red and brown lesions were initiated in groups on the leaf blade. Eventually, the lesions formed parallel lines along the midrib of the leaf. Under light and transmission elec...

Leaf senescence is an important agronomic trait that affects both crop yield and quality. In this study, we characterized a premature leaf senescence mutant of wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) obtained by ethylmethane sulfonate (EMS) mutagenesis, named m68. Genetic analysis showed that the leaf senescence phenotype of m68 is controlled by a single recessive nuclear gene. We compared the transcripto...

greenhouse experiment was conducted to assess the response of wheat to tank mixture of herbicides with insecticide and manure in ferdowsi university of mashhad, iran. the experiment consisted of 8 treatments: 1- tribenuron methyl (15-20 g ha-1) + clodinafop propargyl (0.8 l ha-1) 2- tribenuron methyl + clodinafop propargyl + fenitrotion (1.2 l ha-1) + librel (1 kg ha-1) 3- tribenuron methyl + c...

this research was carried on in order to investigate the response of wheat cultivars to salinity tension as factorial experiment and in complete randomized block design in four replications in islamic azad university shoushtar branch. in this experiment the response of nine wheat cultivars including chamran, karchia66, mahoti, roshan, alvand, kavir, ghods, atrak and tjan at vegetative growth st...

Wheat leaf non-sequential senescence at the late grain-filling stage involves the early senescence of younger flag leaves compared to that observed in older second leaves. On the other hand, sequential senescence involves leaf senescence that follows an age-related pattern, in which flag leaves are the latest to undergo senescence. The characteristics of sugar metabolism in two sequential senes...

Urease activity was detected in the hemolymph of the silkworm, Bombyx mori from the beginning of spinning to the pharate adult stage if the larvae were reared on mulberry leaves throughout the 5th-instar (the last larval instar). In contrast, no urease activity was detected in the hemolymph of insects fed artificial diets, resulting in accumulation of urea during the spinning stage. To identify...

to investigate the effect of dose and applying time of paraquat on soybean weed control, especially wild melon, factorial experiment conducted as a randomized complete block design with four replications in 2009 in dashte naz co. sari-iran. the treatments included different doses of paraquat (0, 1, 1.5, 2 and 2.5 liters per hectare of commercial material) and different growing stages of wild me...

Leaf is an important organ of rice, and it the main place for photosynthesis. Leaf morphology related traits such as leaf length, width area can directly affect photosynthetic efficiency. The study quantitative trait loci (QTL) sites morphological characters rice flag improvement by means genetic breeding provide theoretical basis cultivation ideal plant type rice. In this study, ...

some of the morpho-physiological characteristics related to the leaf growth and development of phaseolus vulgaris l. genotypes have been studied in the field conditions at the seed and plant improvement institute (spii). the study was performed as split plot experiment in a randomized complete block design with four replications in well-watered and water deficit conditions with eight genotypes ...
