The effect of water stress induced by NaCl or drought stress was studied on the leaves of wheat, barley, kidney bean and mung bean. After 25 days old, iso-osmotic stresses (200 mM) NaCl and PEG 6000 (180 g 1 ) were applied for 3 weeks old plants. Decreasing leaf dry weight was similar in -1 barley, kidney bean and mung bean under both stresses, while leaf dry weight of wheat decreased more unde...

root rot disease of broad-bean caused by fusarium solani is a serious disease of this crop. due to high cost and difficulty of the disease control, interaction between root nodulating bacteria and fusarium. solani were evaluated to use for disease management. broad-bean root nodulating bacteria were isolated and their interaction with f. solani was investigated in culture medium in a completely...

This paper aimed to evaluate the productivity of corn crop for silage, beans and straw production in different rotation systems with spring/summer fall/winter green manures cultivated under agroecological management. The experiment was implemented a rural property managed an system since 2009, 2017/18 2018 crops. experimental design used randomized blocks, five repetitions. treatments consisted...

Immature (8-mm), medium mature (11-mm), and mature green (16- and 17-mm) bean seeds (Phaseolus vulgaris L. cv. Kentucky Wonder and Bountiful) were incubated in gibberellin A(1) solutions for 24 hours at 20 degrees . Extracts from the seeds were separated into nonacidic, acidic ethyl acetate, and acidic butanol fractions. These were chromatographed. The eluates of the chromatograms were tested o...

1 Many plant species respond to herbivory with increased emission of volatile organic compounds (VOCs): these attract carnivorous arthropods and thereby function as an indirect defence mechanism. Whether neighbouring plants can ‘eavesdrop’ on such airborne cues and tailor their defences accordingly, remains controversial. 2 We used Lima bean plants ( Phaseolus lunatus ) to investigate whether h...

The response of broad bean (Vicia faba) plants to water stress alone and in combination with green stink bug (Nezara viridula) infestation was investigated through measurement of: (1) leaf gas exchange; (2) plant hormone titres of abscisic acid (ABA) and its metabolites, and of salicylic acid (SA); and (3) hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) content. Furthermore, we evaluated the effects of experimentally...

Green bean genotypes collected from eastern Turkey were characterized using simple sequence repeat (SSR) markers and morphological traits. Among 12 SSR markers, 10 produced successful amplifications and revealed DNA polymorphisms that were subsequently used to assess genetic relatedness of the genotypes. Based on the number of alleles generated and the probability of identity values, the most i...

The present single-dose study was performed to assess the effect of whole coffee fruit concentrate powder (WCFC), green coffee caffeine powder (N677), grape seed extract powder (N31) and green coffee bean extract powder (N625) on blood levels of brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF). Randomly assorted groups of fasted subjects consumed a single, 100mg dose of each material. Plasma samples we...

Fermented foods such as Japanese traditional food "miso (fermented soy bean paste)" have been shown to be rich source of micronutrients with the potential to prevent various human diseases. We have introduced effects of a new dietary supplement of fermented grain foods mixture containing extracts from wheat germ, soybeans, rice bran, tear grass, sesame, wheat, citrus lemon, green tea, green lea...
