In a recent paper [1] Bernard, Golterman, Shamir, and Sharpe challenge the proof developed in [2–4] showing that nonperturbative effects are incorrectly treated in the rooting formalism popular for reducing the number of fermion species in the staggered formalism for dynamical quarks. Here I discuss how this challenge is based on a misunderstanding of the chiral behavior of staggered quarks. Th...

Number of days from transplanting to rooting varies depending on the weather conditions, which has not been considered in developmental prediction but must affect the accuracy. A method to estimate the rooting day when calculation should be started was proposed using within-the-season growth data of the particular field.

Shoot tip cuttings of Quercus phillyraeoides A. Gray ‘Emerald Sentinel’ (‘Emerald Sentinel’ oak), in a transitional growth stage between softwood and semi-hardwood, were collected from containerized plants growing under uniform fertility on June 4, 1998. Cuttings were treated with talc formulations of indolebutyric acid (IBA), ranging from 0 to 8000 ppm (0.8%), and placed under intermittent mis...

ABSTRACT: Couroupita guianensis Aubl. is an Amazonian forest species with important medicinal and ornamental value. This study evaluated the effect of different culture media light spectra on in vitro germination development zygotic embryos C. guianensis. The media, MS WPM, were without addition plant growth regulators associated four LED spectra: white (CW), 70% red + 30% blue (R2B), 100% (R),...

studies have shown that rooting substrate is one of the effective factors at rooting of hard rhizogenetic plant such as henna. the purpose of this study is to determine an appropriate concentration of naphthalene acetic acid (naa), indole butyric acid (iba) and salicylic acid (sa) on rooting of henna. present study showed that there was a great variation in most of the measured characters at p<...

Objective: In vitro propagation of AZ x M9 new apple rootstock resulted of breeding program of vegetative apple rootstock in Iran was investigated. Methods: Nodal explants were inoculated in Murashige and SKoog (MS) medium supplemented with various concentrations of 6-benzylaminon purine (BAP) (0.4, 0.8 and 1.2 mg/l) alone or with naphthalene acetic acid (NAA) (0.1 mg/l). We examined t...

in order to optimize the micropropagation of qare-qat (vaccinium arctostaphylus j.j.sm), samples were collected from two regions of iran (asalem and kelardasht). anderson (an) media containing different concentrations of zeatin (0, 0.5, 1, 2 and 4 mg l-1) and different levels of ph (4.5, 5 and 5.5) were compared. the in vitro shoots were transferred on an media supplemented with zeatin (1 and 2...
