The photosynthetic responses to moderately high temperatures (38 degrees C, imposed at 21% or 2% O(2) in air and 1500 mumol m(-2) s(-1)) were compared in wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) cultivars grown in northern regions of Ukraine and expected to be relatively sensitive to high temperatures ('North' cultivars) and in cultivars grown in southern regions and expected to be relatively heat-tolerant...

this experiment was conducted to screening phenolic acids in root exudates of three rice cultivars (neda, taichung and sepidrood) by high performance liquid chromatography (hplc) method and to evaluate allelopathic potential of these cultivars on growth characteristics of barnyardgrass weed. the experiment was arranged in factorial based on completely randomized design with four replications in...

Prunus mume, belonging to the Prunus genus, is an Asian tree, and its common names are Chinese plum and Japanese plum. P. mume are cultivated for fruit production as well as ornamental purposes. In this study, we conducted de novo transcriptome assembly for two selected P. mume cultivars referred to as Takada and Wallyoung (commercially important cultivars for fruit production and ornamental tr...

in this research, the host preference and life cycle of the colorado potato beetle, leptinotarsa decemlineata (say), was studied on 33 potato cultivars. significant difference was observed for all studied traits (p>0.05 & p>0.01). the lowest number of adults was attracted to cultivars raja, carlita and bridget with mean values of 0.33±0.17, 0.50±0.29 and 0.50±0.29 adults, respectively. the lowe...

Antioxidant capacities and phytochemicals such as phenolics, flavonoids, triterpenoids, phytosterols of four parts of two sugarcane cultivars have been characterised. The total triterpenoid content (TTC), total phenolic content (TPC), total flavonoid content (TFC) and total sterol content (TSC) were different among parts and cultivars of sugarcane. The node of both cultivars contained the highe...
