Soil in laboratory microcosm experiments was amended with dried and milled crop residue of onion (Allium cepa L. cv. Mission) or garlic (A. sativa L. cv. California Early). The amend ments, along with the additional factors of amendment concentration (0, 1 or 3% (w/w)) an soil temperature (23 or 39 8C), were evaluated with respect to germination of seeds of th weedy annual plants Echinochloa cr...

Annual Sainfoin (Onobrychis crista-galli (L.) Lam.) is widely adapted to moderate and cold regions of Iran and naturally grows in pasture and rangelands used for forage in these areas. In order to study the effects of priming on seed germination and seedling growth in O. crista-galli, two factorial experiments were conducted based on a randomized complete design with three replications under la...

INTRODUCTION One of the aspects that have an influence on rhinosinusal endoscopic surgery is extrasinusal pneumatization, which can also affect less common structures at this level. The pneumatization of the superior and supreme turbinates, uncinate process and crista galli are perfect examples of this situation. The diagnosis is made only through imaging methods. MATERIALS AND METHODS This i...

AIM The objective of this research was to in vitro evaluate the cuticular surface damage of Ascaridia galli adult worms treated with ethanolic extract of betel nuts Veitchia merrillii. MATERIALS AND METHODS Phytochemical screening was done using FeCl3, Wagner and Dragendorff reagents, NaOH, MgHCl, and Liebermann-Burchard reaction test. Amount of 16 worms were segregated into four groups with ...

Edaphic properties have been widely shown to influence community composition and distribution. However, the degree which edaphic factors can affect grasses in semi-arid lowlands is still little researched. We assessed significance of nine explain distributions 65 grass species with various ecological traits (i.e., indicator values for their preferred habitat) Pakistan. To record information on ...
