Seed of Amaranthus alus L. develop an enhanced sensitivity to the farred absorbing form of phytochrome after prolonged imbibition at temperatures >32 degrees C. The enhanced sensitivity developed at 40 degrees C could be reversed by subsequent treatment at 20 degrees C and similarly reestablished by repeating a 40 degrees C treatment. It is concluded that relative sensitivity to the far-red abs...

East Calcutta Wetland (ECW) is an example of wise use of cities solid and liquid waste through integrated resource recovery, mainly for pisciculture, vegetable as well as paddy cultivation and manure production. Amaranthus caudatus, Amaranthus blithum and Spinacia oleracea grown at ECW were analyzed for their accumulation of elements using Energy Dispersive X Ray Fluorescence (EDXRF) and compar...

METHODS In this study, the anti-diabetic and anti-cholesterolemic activity of methanol extracts of leaves of all three plants was evaluated by using normal and ST...

The vitamin compositions of fresh leaves of Cucurbital moschata and Amaranthus hybridus L. were determined through spectrophotometric and titrimetric methods. The investigation revealed that the fresh leaves of Cucurrbital moshcata contained higher amounts (mg/100g) of ascorbic acid (33.49±1.22), thiamine (17.38±2.06) and riboflavin (3.41±0.18) while Amaranthus hybridus contained higher amount ...
