Cornaceae plants are known for their edible berries, and their leaves are used as tea. In the present study aqueous leaf extracts from Cornus mas (CM), C. alba (CA), C. flaviramea (CF), C. kousa (CK), and C. officinalis (CO) were tested for their antiproliferative activity in human breast cancer cells (MCF-7). Dose- (50-750 µg/mL) and time (24, 48, 72 h)-dependent antiproliferative effects were...

Çalışma, farklı kızılcık genotipleri (21, 22, 24, 25 ve 44-05) Erolbey-77 çeşidinin yarı-odun çelikleri ile çoğaltılma olanaklarının belirlenmesi amacı yürütülmüştür. İncelenen genotiplerine ait 15 Temmuz 2014 tarihinde alınmıştır. Hazırlanan çelikler iki gruba ayrılarak, yarısına herhangi bir uygulama yapılmamış (kontrol grubu), diğer ise 4000 ppm indol 3-butirik asit (IBA) uygulaması yapılmış...
