Leaf rust is one of the most devastating wheat diseases worldwide, to which many resistance genes have been successfully introgressed from wild relatives. Though Thinopyrum ponticum-derived leaf gene Lr19 widely effective, and previous studies shown its likely presence in Aegilops tauschii, no thorough investigation has conducted confirm this. The current study examined Ae. tauschii using molec...

The antimicrobial peptide MSI-99, an analog of magainin 2, was expressed via the chloroplast genome to obtain high levels of expression in transgenic tobacco (Nicotiana tabacum var. Petit Havana) plants. Polymerase chain reaction products and Southern blots confirmed integration of MSI-99 into the chloroplast genome and achievement of homoplasmy, whereas northern blots confirmed transcription. ...

background and objectives:  hawthorn is a forest fruit tree which is grown in the temperate regions around the world. this plant is known as the most traditional herbal remedy for heart failure and cardiovascular disease in worldwide. this study has been conducted to investigate the genetic variability and classify hawthorn genotypes based on quantitative and qualitative characteristics of leaf...

Present work reports the biological activities of P. hysterophorus leaf, stem, flower, and root. Dried samples were sequentially extracted with many solvents. Hexane (HX), benzene (BZ), and chloroform (CH) extracts of leaf showed considerable antibacterial activity against Streptococcus mutans (MTCC 497), Proteus vulgaris (MTCC 7299), and Salmonella typhi (MTCC 3917). Flower extracts exhibited ...
