A factorial experiment with two factors was carried out at the Seed Technology Lab., College of Agriculture, University Baghdad in 2018 order to study effect seed priming gibberellic acid (GA3) (0, 100, 300 and 500 mgL-1) on germination seedling growth deteriorated oat cultivars (Shifaa, Shofan11). The complete randomized design used four replications. results showed that cultivars, soaking dif...

introduction: estimation of stature is one of the most important fields in forensic medicine. also it is of particular interest to anthropologists and anatomist. our aim was to investigate the relationship between stature and the length of lower limb and foot to derive a regression formula for estimating the stature. methods: three anthropometric measurements stature, lower limb length (lll) an...

Pythium myriotylum is a notorious soil-borne oomycete that causes post-emergence damping-off in chili pepper. Of various disease management strategies, utilization of plant growth promoting rhizobacteria (PGPR) suppression and promotion an interesting strategy. The present study was performed to isolate characterize PGPR indigenous the rhizosphere Pakistan, test potential suppress chili. Out to...

Seed orientation and its impacts on germination seedling establishment mainly depend the type of (hypogeal (or) epigeal), seed size shape. Higher per cent is noticed when seeds are sown in horizontal position. Planting a downward position can lead to variety physiological, chemical morphological changes seedlings. Consequences usually manifested as noticeable modifications their development. Vi...

The relationships between the distribution of the native auxin indole-3-acetic acid (IAA) and tropisms in the epicotyl of red light-grown pea (Pisum sativum L.) seedlings have been investigated. The distribution measurement was made in a defined zone of the third internode, using (3)H-IAA applied from the plumule as a tracer. The tropisms investigated were gravitropism, pulse-induced phototropi...

Maize protein EMB564 is a member of group 1 LEA (late embryogenesis abundant) proteins. Currently, there is accumulating information available concerning the biological functions and subcellular localization of group 1 LEA proteins. We recently found that EMB564 protein is associated with maize seed viability. In order to elucidate the function of EMB564, its tissue and subcellular localization...
