frost in early spring is one of the limiting factors in the production of grape. chemicals offer useful approach to reduce low temperature-induced damages. different concentrations of salicylic acid including: 0 (control), 0.5, 1 and 2 mm were sprayed twice on 10 year-old ‘bidaneh sefid’ grape vines at full bloom stage and changes in leaf soluble carbohydrates, proline and protein levels were m...

Carbohydrates play an immense role in different aspects of life. NMR spectroscopy is the most powerful tool for investigation of these compounds. Nowadays, progress in computational procedures has opened up novel opportunities giving an impulse to the development of new instruments intended to make the research simpler and more efficient. In this paper, we present a new approach for simulating ...

Freezing injury is an important limiting factor in the production of pomegranate in Iran.The aim of the present study was to evaluate the effect of paclobutrazol (PBZ) on cold hardiness of pomegranate (Punica granatum L.) cv. ‘Malas Saveh’. Different concentrations of PBZ including 0 (control), 31, 62, 125 or 250 mg L–1 were sprayed on one-year-old plants in August and the electrolyte leakage o...

Euonymus europaeus lectin (EEL) is a carbohydrate-binding protein derived from the fruit of the European spindle tree. EEL was first identified for its erythrocyte agglutinating properties and specificity for B and H blood groups. However, a detailed molecular picture of the structural basis of carbohydrate recognition by EEL remains to be developed. In this study, we performed fluorescence tit...
