This research explores the effects of three computer-mediated feedback modalities, that is, elicitation, recast, and meta-linguistics, on the learning of English participial, gerund, and infinitival phrases among Iranian intermediate-level EFL learners. The overriding focus of the present study was to investigate whether different types of feedback given through form-focused computer-human exch...

Background: Flavonoids of Hypericum perforatum are important secondary metabolites which have been widely utilized in medicine for a range of purposes. The use of methyl jasmonate (MeJA) elicitation for the enhancement of flavonoid production in cell suspension culture of H. perforatum would be an efficient alternative method for the flavonoid production. Results: MeJA influenced the cells grow...

background & aim: rubiatinctorum is one of the most well-known medicinal plants whose alizarin and other anthraquinones which are outstanding color agents with some trace of pharmaceutical properties are isolated from it. the objective of this study was to optimize alizarin production in intact plant of r.tinctorum by induction with biotic elicitors. experimental: to increase the synthesis ...

The study of team performance using knowledge elicitation methods can result in the proliferation of large amounts of data. While methods such as the Wagon Wheel Method have been devised to facilitate knowledge elicitation, they often underspecify analysis protocols for dealing with large datasets. Moreover, the representation of the analysis poses challenges for transforming the knowledge gain...

this study was performed to investigate the effect of ag+ as an elicitor on the activity of antioxidant enzymes, content of h2o2, accumulation of total tocopherol and antioxidant activity in hairy root cultures of silybum marianum (l.) gaertn. the hairy roots were treated with 2 mm ag+. the treated and non-treated hairy roots were harvested in the same time and data on h2o2 content, dpph, tocop...
