The aim of this paper was to study of the effect of fenugreek seed (Trigonella foenum-graecum) and asparagus root (Asparagus officinalis) on in vitro digestibility and kinetics of gas production of alfalfa hay. Fenugreek seed (FS) and asparagus root (AR) were added at different levels (0, 5, 10, 15 and 20% of DM). Total phenolic components of alfalfa hay (AH), fenugreek seed (FS) and asparagus ...

SUMMARY Avocado seed are usually considered as waste or as a source of seedlings suitable for use as rootstocks. This paper emphasizes the changing composition of avocado seed and how as a storage organ certain constituents are translocated from it to other portions of the fruit or tree. The fresh and dry weight and some of the inorganic constituents were determined in the dry matter of the see...

introduction proteins are one of the basic and essential required compounds for life, and the creatures receive it either from a plant or animal origin. it has been reported that the positive effects caused by applying the magnetic field are due to the paramagnetic properties of the cells within the plant, and pigments such as the chloroplast. biophysical methods (magnetic fields, electricity, ...

TROSZYŃSKA A., CISKA E. (2002): Phenolic compounds of seed coats of white and coloured varieties of pea (Pisum sativum L.) and their total antioxidant activity. Czech J. Food Sci., 20: 15–22. The purpose of this study was to compare the composition and contents of phenolic acids and condensed tannin in the seed coats of white and coloured varieties of pea and to examine the antioxidant properti...

The endogenous levels of indole-3-acetic acid (IAA) and phenyl acetic acid (PAA) were estimated in developing seeds of two different varieties of Cajanus cajan: Black seeded variety (V1, big seeded) and B. D. N2 (V2, small seeded). Antibodies against IAA and PAA were raised in rabbits. By competitive ELISA, free and conjugated IAA and free forms of PAA were estimated. Growth analysis of seeds w...

an experiment was conducted to determine the effect of different inclusion rates and degree of saturation of fat sources on true metabolizable energy corrected to zero nitrogen retention ( tmen) values in broiler chickens at 42 days of age. animal fat and cotton seed oil were blended in the proportions of: 0.25:0.75 , 0.50:0.50 , 0.75:0.25. the three blends together with the animal fat and cott...

a study was conducted to evaluate the effects of plant growth promoting rhizobacteria (pgpr) inoculants including four strains of azotobacter chroococcum, azospirillum lipoferum, a. brasilense and pseudomonas fluorescence on dry matter accumulation of late maturing maize(zea mays l.) hybrids, sc704, sc700 and a promising single cross b73×k18. a factorial experiment was conducted in research fie...

in order to study the effect of irrigation cut on dry matter remobilization and some of agronomy traits on spring barley, a field experiment was conducted by using a split-plot based on randomized complete block design (rcbd), in three replications, at agricultural and natural resource research center of ardebil, in 2009. irrigation treatments included normal irrigation (as local routine in pas...

This research was carried out to assessment agro physiological traits of bread wheat affected salinity stress, Nano zinc oxide and arbuscular mycorrhiza (AM) fungi under greenhouse condition via factorial experiment based on randomized complete blocks design with three replications. Experimental factors included salinity stress in three levels [no-salt (S0) or control, salinity 40 (S1), and 80 ...
