Peanut varieties have their own distinct characteristics, which also affect the properties of processed-products. Knowledge on these effects can assist peanut processors to select certain for specific products. Therefore, multivariate relationships between quality traits kernels and butters were explored in this study. manufactured from forty with detailed component analysis. The volatile compo...

Nickel and cadmium are heavy metals with some hazards for plant metabolism. The impacts of nickel chloride (0, 400 and 800 μM) in the presence of vitamin B complex (0, 30 and 60 ml from pharmacy commercial stock) and the impacts of cadmium chloride (0, 100, 200, 300, 400, 500 and 600 μl from 100 µM stock) in pot and cadmium nitrate (0, 100, 200, 400, 800, 1600 and 3200 μl from 100 µM stock) in ...

Leaf aging is a fundamental driver of changes in leaf traits, thereby regulating ecosystem processes and remotely sensed canopy dynamics. We explore leaf reflectance as a tool to monitor leaf age and develop a spectra-based partial least squares regression (PLSR) model to predict age using data from a phenological study of 1099 leaves from 12 lowland Amazonian canopy trees in southern Peru. Res...

Soybean is generally grown as a rainfed crop worldwide and very often exposed to drought high temperatures. The objectives of this study were determine the performance stability 32 elite soybean genotypes for seed protein oil contents across six dry eight normal environments influence environment on relationship between two traits. In combined ANOVA, (G), (E) G × E significant both traits with ...

One of the main reasons for oilseed rape breeding is to improve quality and composition seeds by increasing fat protein content, reduce dietary fibre. We attempted obtain such varieties crossing two DH lines winter different origin, H2-26 Z-114, which have black yellow seeds, respectively. The cross was followed in vitro androgenesis, resulting a population 44 that were studied field experiment...

This paper traces the historical development of kanji, the Chinese characters used in the Japanese orthographic system. The paper outlines the structural principles which underlie their composition, both in respect to single kanji and to their combination in compound words. Discussion also pays attention to their usage and frequency, as well as to the various script reforms that have affected t...

Grain appearance quality and milling quality are the main determinants of market value of rice. Breeding for improved grain quality is a major objective of rice breeding worldwide. Identification of genes/QTL controlling quality traits is the prerequisite for increasing breeding efficiency through marker-assisted selection. Here, we reported a genome-wide association study in indica rice to ide...

Abstract Aims Silicon (Si) uptake and accumulation improves plant resilience to environmental stresses, but most studies examining this functional role of Si have focussed on grasses (Poaceae) neglected other important groups, such as legumes (Fabaceae). Legumes evolved a symbiotic relationship with nitrogen-fixing bacteria (rhizobia) housed in root nodules. Our study determined the impacts sil...
