salinity is a major limiting factor for plant growth and development. to evaluate the impact of p5cs gene expression under in vitro salt stress condition, transgenic tobacco (nicotiana plumbaginifolia) carrying p5cs gene and non-transgenic plants were treated with 0, 100, 150, 200 or 250 mm nacl for 28 days. proline content, lipid peroxidation and the activity of some antioxidant enzymes after ...

Polymethoxylavones (PMFs) are known to exhibit significant anti-inflammatory and neuroprotective properties. Nicotiana plumbaginifolia, an annual Bangladeshi herb, is rich in polymethoxyflavones that possess significant analgesic and anxiolytic activities. The present study aimed to determine the antinociceptive and neuropharmacological activities of polyoxygenated flavonoids namely- 3,3',5,6,7...

Nicotiana section Alatae exhibits great diversity among species in floral morphology, mating system, and predominant pollinators. As a first step towards estimating nectar's role in floral evolution, we studied nectar traits to determine whether they vary in association with predominant pollinators and mating system. Daily phenology determines when nectar becomes available to pollinators and di...
