The electrochemical behavior of 6063 aluminum alloy in ethylene glycol-water mixture was investigated by polarization curves and AC impedance measurements (EIS).  The results obtained from polarization curves showed that corrosion rate decreased with increasing ethylene glycol concentration. EIS data showed the decrease in the interface capacitance which caused by adsorption of ethylene glycol ...

since the discovery of macc as a major metabolite of both endogenous and exogenously applied acc, it has become evident that the formation of macc from acc can act to regulate ethylene production in certain tissues. hence, it was suggested that macc could serve as an indicator of water-stress history in plant tissues. the accurate quantification of macc in plant tissues is essential for the und...

cyanobacteria were collected and identified in five paddy fields with different soil textures of golestan province in iran. it was determined that nostoc ellipsosporum and nostoc muscorum were dominant in all sites among 20 species. to assess the ability of atmospheric nitrogen fixation by the species, their pure cultures were provided by growing on bg-11 solid culture medium. subsequently, eac...

The role of ethylene in light control of leaf abscission im mung bean, Vigna radiata (L.) Wilczek cv Jumbo, cuttings was examined. While red light inhibits and far-red light promotes loss of break strength in abscission zones as compared with dark controls, changes in the rate of abscission could not be associated with changes in the rate of ethylene production. Reducing ethylene synthesis in t...

In hypocotyl segments of mung bean (Phaseolus mungo L.) seedlings, exogenously supplied indoleacetic acid was rapidly conjugated mainly into indoleacetylaspartic acid, which was inactive in inducing ethylene production. Kinetin is known to stimulate indoleacetic acid-induced ethylene production. The mechanism of kinetin action on indoleacetic acid-induced ethylene production by hypocotyl segmen...

The regulatory role of ethylene in leaf senescence was studied with excised tobacco leaf discs which were allowed to senesce in darkness. Exogenous ethylene, applied during the first 24 hours of senescence, enhanced chlorophyll loss without accelerating the climacteric-like pattern of rise in both ethylene and CO(2), which occurred in the advanced stage of leaf senescence. Rates of both ethylen...

Ethylene production was determined in excised tomato (Lycopersicon esculentum) root cultures of Meloidogyne javanica susceptible and resistant cultivars infected with M. javanica. Uninfected cultivars produced very low amounts of ethylene. Relatively high amounts of ethylene were produced by the infected susceptible cultivars. Peak production of 1.6 n moles * g root(1) * h(1) occurred between 9...

To survey the effects of flooding during the reproductive growth stages of aerenchyma formation and ethylene production in soybean cultivar DPX experiment  the completely randomized factorial was in 2012 in Gorgan University of Agricultural Sciences and Natural Resources. Factors examined include nutrition levels in three levels (1 - inoculated with bacteria JaponicumBradyRhizobium 2 - non-inoc...
