Two Asteraceae species, Clibadium surinamense L. and Montanoa grandiflora D.C., were analyzed to determine the composition of the essential oil and to search for phototoxic compounds. Three parts of the plants were studied, inflorescence, stems and leaves. Intra and interspecific differences were found in the essential oil composition, which was determined by gas chromatography. In the chromato...

Objective: To describe Heliconia uxpanapensis x latispatha var. Karely, interspecific variety generated for cut flower based on commercial standards. Design/Methodology/Approach: Interspecific hand pollination was carried out between H. Gutiérrez Báez Benth. The female parent is endemic to Mexico; it presents compact growth due its pachymorphic rhizome, red and erect inflorescence, bracts in di...

Tomato plants harboring the ripening-inhibitor (rin) mutation yield fruits that fail to ripen. Additionally, rin plants display enlarged sepals and loss of inflorescence determinacy. Positional cloning of the rin locus revealed two tandem MADS-box genes (LeMADS-RIN and LeMADS-MC), whose expression patterns suggested roles in fruit ripening and sepal development, respectively. The rin mutation a...

The essential oil content in the inflorescence of lavender (Lavandula angustifolia Mill.) cultivated in the mid hills of Uttarakhand was found to be 2.8 % based o n the fresh weight. The oil was an alysed by capillary GC and GC– MS. Thirty seven constituents, representing 97.81 % of the o il were identified. The major components of the oil were linalyl acetate (47.56 %), linalool (28.06 %), lav...

Agro-morphological characters in 34 populations of Iranian Trifolium resupinatum L. germplasm, were investigated. 24 traits for each accession evaluated according to white clover and forage legume descriptors. Data analyzed by SPSS Excel softwares. Statistical tendency parameters agro-morphological calculated. A cluster analysis based on morphological separate two different groups that one ther...

Heterogeneity in root-zone temperature both vertically and horizontally may contribute to the uneven vegetative and reproductive growth often observed across vineyards. An experiment was designed to assess whether the warmed half of a grapevine root zone could compensate for the cooled half in terms of vegetative growth and reproductive development. We divided the root system of potted Shiraz g...
