in order to evaluate the density, population and insect fauna diversity and agronomical yield in intercropping faba bean (vicia faba l.) andcoriander (coriandrum sativum l.), a field experiment was conducted based on a randomized complete block design with three replications at the farm located in nagadeh, west azerbaijan province, iran during growing season in 2012-2013. treatments included 75...

Seed oil is important not only for human and animal nutrition, but also for various industrial applications. Numerous genetic engineering strategies have been attempted to increase the oil content per seed, but few of these strategies have involved manipulating the transporters. Pyruvate is a major source of carbon for de novo fatty acid biosynthesis in plastids, and the embryo's demand for pyr...

oil has an important role in human food. an experiment was conducted in order to evaluate the response of spring genotypes of safflower to irrigation disruption in reproductive growth different stages, in a spilt plot arrangement based on randomized complete block design with four replications at research farm, faculty of agriculture, university of birjand during 2008. irrigation regimes (full ...

The genus Hypericum is one of the most important medicinal plants that contain 17 species in Iran, three of them are endemics. This paper reports the essential oil composition of eight Hypericum species from Iran. The essential oil analysis of a number of the studied plants has already been reported but their report from Iran may be valuable for scientists.  Samples collected from different pla...

background & aim: black seed or black cumin (nigella sativa l.) belongs the family ranunculaceae. black seed is one of these species, which is naturally distributed in different parts of the country. it is extensively cultivated in various regions of iran.  experimental: the experiment was achieved using randomized complete block design with three replications in the research field of islam...

BACKGROUND Camelina sativa is an emerging dedicated oilseed crop designed for biofuel and biodiesel applications as well as a source for edible and general-purpose oils. Such valuable oilseed crop is subjected to plant breeding programs and is suggested for large-scale production of better seed and oil quality. To accomplish this objective and to further enhance its oil content, a better unders...

to study the effect of drought stress during using organic and chemical fertilizers on morphological, agronomic traits and the essential oil of coriander, a field experiment was conducted as split plot based on randomized complete block design in three replications at agricultural research station, college of agriculture, university of torbat heydarieh, iran during growing season of 2010-2011. ...

this experiment was lay out in order to evaluate the effects of different biofertilizers on seed yield, protein and oil of rapeseed in iran. the experiment was a factorial design with three replications. treatments were four nitrogen biofrtilizers (control (n1), nitroksin (n2), azotobacter (n3) and supernitroplat (n4)) and three phosphate biofrtilizers ( control(p1), biosfer phosphate (p2) and ...

BACKGROUND Fatty acids (FAs) are important as raw materials for the biotechnology industry. Existing methods of FAs production are based on chemical methods. In this study potassium hydroxide (KOH)-catalyzed reactions were utilized to hydrolysis Jatropha curcas seed oil. RESULTS The parameters effect of ethanolic KOH concentration, reaction temperature, and reaction time to free fatty acid (F...

Oil content, fatty acid composition and the distribution of vitamin-E-active compounds of selected Turkish seeds that are typically by-products of the food processing industries (linseed, apricot, pear, fennel, peanut, apple, cotton, quince and chufa), were determined. The oil content of the samples ranged from 16.9 to 53.4 g/100 g. The dominating fatty acids were oleic acid (apricot seed oil, ...
