Lattice henbane (Hyoscyamus reticulatus L.) is an herbaceous, biennial plant belonging to Solanaceae family. H. reticulatus hairy roots were established from two-week-old leaves infected by A7 strain of Agrobacterium rhizogenes on solid Murashige and Skoog (MS) medium. In this study, abiotic elicitors including; Sodium silicate (Na2SiO3) with different concentrations (0, 1, 5 and 7 mM) and silv...

Biofertilizers, such as arbuscular mycorrhiza fungi (AMF) and seaweed extract (SWE), have been effective in environmental agricultural ecosystems. In this study, the effects of AMF, SWE, their co-application were assayed on growth antioxidant potential lettuce plants. The experiment was conducted a factorial based completely randomized design with two factors four replications under greenhouse ...

background: satureja bachtiarica bunge, an endemic species with relatively wide distribution, is traditionally used as a medicinal and spice plant in iran. objective: essential oils composition, antioxidant activities and phenolics content of wild and cultivated s. bachtiarica of yazd origin were determined in this study. methods: hydrodistilled essential oils were analyzed by gc-fid and gc-ms....

the aim of the study was to evaluate the antioxidant and free radical scavenging properties and to determine the phenolic content of the ethanol extract from five mentha species [m. longifolia (l.) huds., m. piperita l., m. pulegium l., m. rotundifolia (l.) huds., and m. spicata l.]. the antioxidant activities of the extracts were investigated with two different methods, 2,2’-diphenyl-1-picrylh...

the objective of this research was to study the biological activities of various extracts and the chemical composition of the essential oil trigonella monantha c. a. mey. subsp. monantha by gas chromatography (gc) and gas chromatography-mass spectroscopy (gc-ms), from the compounds derived from the aerial parts. the overall results of t. monantha tests allow us to conclude various extracts [hex...
