the process of adaptation to cold is an important mechanism in wheat cultivars to tolerate cold stress. this work was aimed to calrify the relationship between vernalization requirement with cold tolerance by assessing physiological changes in cold susceptible spring and tolerant winter wheat (triticum aestivum, cvs. kohdasht and cheyyene, respectively) in environmentally controlled conditions,...

ornithine is a non-proteinogenic amino acid, which plays an essential role in the metabolism of plants. regard to the chirality of the molecule, physiological response of the plant cells to its two enantiomers have not been widely investigated yet. in the present study, suspension-cultured tobacco cells were treated with 1 mm of d- and lenantiomers of ornithine in normal conditions as well as u...

Objective(s): Sugar cane molasses is a commonly used ingredient in several food products. Contrasting reports suggest that molasses may have potential adverse or beneficial effects on human health. However, little evidence exists that examines the effects of molasses on the different physiological systems. This study investigated the effects of sugar cane molasses on various physiological syste...

Water stress causes defoliation, which can reduce yield and root quality of sugar beets (Beta vulgaris L.) through altered gas exchange characteristics of the leaves. In a two-year experiment, three sugar beet cultivars (Europa, Rival and Corsica) were subjected to three defoliation levels (control-C, moderate-MD, severe-SD) and re-watering after their exposition to drought for a month. Leaf ph...

Determining the most Tolerant Genotypes of Hashemi Rice Mutant (M3) in Response to Drought Stress using Physiological Growth Indices and Enzymatic Changes

Purpose: the transformation of marriage patterns and family formation by following transition from traditional society to a modern society causes changes in goals, function of family formation. The aim of this study was comparative investigation of the attitudes of single and married individuals about marriage function. Materials and method: the study performed by qualitative method. The statis...

Angiotensin II is a major endocrine hormone that affects directly both vascular smooth muscle and endothelial cells. Since vascular reactivity to angiotensin II changes in more physiological and pathophysiological conditions, the present study was performed to investigate the effect of intraperitoneal administration of angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitor and captopril (30 and 50 mg kg-1, on...
