We recorded seasonal changes in the total amounts of soluble carbohydrates in shoots of saltand fresh-water coastal plants at La Pérouse Bay, northern Manitoba, to determine whether adult snow geese and their goslings selected forage rich in soluble carbohydrates during the breeding season. The selection of forage plants in spring and summer by adults and goslings was strongly linked to the pre...

abstract various resistances to salinity are due to plants genetically variations, and selection on the basis of one factor will not be a suitable criterion in measurement of resistance to salinity, therefore in choosing resistant varieties, it is necessary to notice to a set of resistant indexes to salinity, creating changes in physiology, anatomy and morphology of plant species. this research...

The soybean (Glycine max l. merr) is one of oil seed plants from leguminous family. In this study, the effect of gamma radiation on chlorophyll, soluble and insoluble carbohydrate and composition oil seeds were investigated in soybean. Soybean variety J.K was irradiated with 0,100,200 and 300 gamma ray. The treatment and control seeds planed in with four replicates. The highest amount of total ...

This study examined the utilization of potato processing wastewater as the feedstock by two oleaginous fungi, Aspergillus flavus I16-3 and Mucor rouxii, for lipid and gamma linolenic acid production. The high strength wastewater contained soluble carbohydrates of 36.2 g/l, soluble chemical oxygen demand (COD) of 40 g/l, total soluble nitrogen of 0.62 g/l, and soluble total phosphorus of 0.24 g/...

Subcritical water is an alternative and environmentally friendly processing medium with interesting applications in many fields of research1. Its ability to degrade natural biopolymers2 (cellulose, protein etc.) into smaller, usually water-soluble products (sugars, amino acids etc.) has been found to be quite useful, especially in waste and biomass processing technologies. Nevertheless, for foo...

this study was conducted under ahvaz, iran environmental condition during 2012 and 2013 growing seasons in order to investigate the influence of foliar application of potassium on some physiological and biochemical characteristics of three olive cultivars including ‘mission’, ‘koroneiki’ and ‘dezfuli’. potassium sulfate in different concentrations of 0, 1, and 2 g l-1 was sprayed twice on selec...

to determine the effect of zn and mn enriched seed on quality of two winter safflower varieties under drought stress, an experiment was conducted at the agricultural faculty research field, tarbiat modarres university, during 2004-2005 cropping season. the design was a split factorial randomized complete block one of 3 replications. main plots were composed of 3 different levels of drought stre...

Soybean seeds accumulate soluble carbohydrates throughout development and maturation. Soluble carbohydrates may have important roles in seed germination, seed desiccation tolerance, and cold stress tolerance. The analysis of soluble carbohydrates in soybean seeds and other plant parts at various growth stages (Obendorf et al., 1998b & 2009; Kosina et al., 2009), under environmental stresses (Bl...

Carbohydrate compositions of chloroform: methanol-soluble and -insoluble complex polysaccharides have been studied in cell lines derived from BALB/c mice. The cells used in these studies include normal cells, spontaneous and viral transformants that cause tumors that regress, and spontaneous and viral transformants that cause progressively growing tumors that kill immunocompetent BALB/c mice. T...
