Abstract Salinity stress and the absence of light negatively impact growth development plants. Morpho-physiological biochemical attributes maize ( Zea mays L.) get severely affected by salt subdue light. Therefore, a pot experiment was conducted under prevailing environmental conditions Turbat, Balochistan, to explore etiolation de-etiolation response hybrid (SP-17S23) salinity exogenous applic...

Irradiation with artificial lighting in greenhouses and plant factories is mainly used to promote photosynthesis tomato cultivation. In addition photosynthesis, the light effects on morphology, flowering, metabolism are also crucial as responses. Light period quality have been studied for a long time relation flowering of cut-flowers, strawberries, many leafy vegetables. quality, such red, far-...

Plant growth regulators (PGRs) are commonly used in horticulture to improve crop quality, save water, and enhance plant resilience stress. In this study, we examined the effects of two PGRs, paclobutrazol (PBZ) mepiquat chloride (MC), on health Salvia officinalis ‘Icterina’, a popular ornamental aromatic plant. Parameters such as development, water status, chlorophyll levels, nutrient content, ...

Drought stress causes severe metabolic dysfunctions by formation of oxidative stress that may lead to damage in DNA, inactivation of enzymes, and lipid peroxidation. Plants have developed different morphological, physiological, and biochemical mechanisms to withstand the drought stress. Plant growth regulators (PGRs) are...

A simple and efficient protocol for in vitro shoot and callus induction was established from three different explants of Canavalia gladiata (Jacq.) DC. an economically important legume. The explants viz., shoot buds, nodes, internodes were cultured in MS medium supplemented with various concentration and combination of (PGRs) Plant growth regulators 6-benzyl amino purine (BAP) (0.5mg/L – 1.5mg/...

Merremia emarginata plants were treated with different plant growth regulators (PGRs): naphthyl acetic acid (NAA), phenyl acetic acid (PAA) and gibberellic acid (GA 3). To determine the role of wall stiffening enzymes in internode elongation, IAA oxidase and peroxidase in the presence of different hydrogen donors like caffeic acid, chlorogenic acid and guaiacol were assayed. The levels of total...

An investigation was conducted to study the effect of plant growth regulators on rice (variety Sarju-52) grown under sodic conditions, during kharifseason 2018 at students’ instructional farm ANDUA&T, Kumarganj, Ayodhya. The experiment laid out in randomized block design with nine treatments and three replications, different concentrations modes application (PGRs). PGRs were applied as foll...

Mycobacterium tuberculosis has a unique family of PE-PGRS proteins with conserved N-terminal domains (PE) containing site-specific proline-glutamine residues and polymorphic GC-rich repetitive sequences (PGRS). Tuberculosis (TB) patients produce antibodies against some such proteins, but it is not clear whether these responses correlate with disease. Clinical groups with different mycobacterium...

Forty-eight of 81 (59%) of N-nitrosomethylurea-induced rat mammary tumors regressed in average to almost one-half of the original size 10 days after ovariectomy (ovax) (hormone responsive), while 33 remained essentially unchanged (hormone resistant). AT 20 days after ovax, further decline in hormone-responsive tumors was observed when the rats were treated daily with 0.9% NaCl solution on the t...
