Coriander (Coriandrum sativum L.) is an aromatic member of the Apiaceae with a wide diversity of uses (Diederichsen 1996). Its rapid life cycle allows it to fit into different growing seasons, making it possible to grow the crop under a wide range of conditions. Three subspecies and 10 botanical varieties of coriander have been proposed at the infraspecific level (Diederichsen and Hammer 2003) ...

Enhancing water use efficiency of coriander (Coriandrum sativum L.) is a major focus for coriander breeding to cope with drought stress. The purpose of this study was; (a) to identify the predominant mechanism(s) of drought resistance in coriander and (b) to evaluate the genetic control mechanism(s) of traits associated with drought resistance and higher fruit yield. To reach this purpose, 15 h...

Aim: This study was planned to investigate the effect of sugar beet, neem leaf, linseed and coriander on growth parameters such as feed intake, body weight gain, feed conversion ratio (FCR), performance index (PI), and carcass characteristics in broiler birds. Materials and Methods: The experiment was conducted for a period of 42 days on Vanaraja strain of broiler birds. Different dietary suppl...

Different herbs and spices have been used as feed additives for various purposes in poultry production. This study was conducted to assess the effect of feed supplemented with black pepper (Piper nigrum), turmeric powder (Curcuma longa), coriander seeds (Coriandrum sativum) and their combinations on the performance of broilers. A total of 210 (Cobb) one-d-old chicks were divided into seven grou...

The use of herbs and spices has gained increasing interest as feed additives and possible alternative to antibiotics in poultry production. The effects of using different levels of coriander seed powder or extract on selected blood parameters, intestinal microflora, and immune response of broiler chickens were investigated in this study. A total of 420-day-old broiler chicks were randomly assig...

The acaricidal effect of eleven essential oils (Sweet basil, Common juniper, Atlas cedar, Coriander, Blue gum, European silver fir, Common lavender, Lemon, Peppermint, Scots pine, Summer savory) against poultry red mite Dermanyssus gallinae was tested in vitro using the direct contact method, at three different doses: 0.2 mg/cm2, 0.4 mg/cm2 and 0.6 mg/cm2. The results of the study revealed that...

in order to study the intercropping arrangements of coriander (coriandrum sativum l.) and fenugreek (trigonella foenum-graecum l.), a field experiment was conducted during growing season of 2010 at agriculture research station, college of agriculture, ferdowsi university of mashhad, iran. a randomized complete block design with three replications was used. treatments included: mono-crop of fenu...

Caraway, coriander and fennel are known hypoglycemic agents, which are used in folklori medicine for improving blood glucose level and preventing long term complications in diabetes mellitus. So, this study was designed to clarify their role on the histological and histochemical changes in kidney and islets of Langerhan in diabetic rats. 80 rats were divided into 5 groups. The first group was c...

The essential oils are aromatic compounds found in various organs of plants and they are called volatile or essential oil due to evaporation due to air exposure. In this study, Coriander was extracted by Solvent-Free Microwave Extraction (SFME) in three powers 450, 600 and 800 watt and ultrasonic. Then, by gas chromatography/mass spectrometry, the extracted essential oil is evaluated. The highe...
