Concentrations of soluble soil sugars, soluble phenolic acids, and free amino acids were measured in three forest communities at the FACTS-II Aspen FACE Site near Rhinelander, WI, in order to better understand how elevated atmospheric CO2 and O3 are influencing soil nutrient availability and cycling. Sugars, phenolic acids, and amino acids are mostly derived from plant and microbial processes, ...

effect of different co2 concentrations on sucrose metabolizing enzymes and on carbohydrate metabolism was studied for eight blackgram (vigna mungo l. hepper) genotypes grown in open top chambers under ambient (380 µmol mol-1) vs. elevated co2 (550 and 700 µmol mol-1) levels. the higher acid invertase activity over neutral invertase indicated the major role of acid invertase in sucrose breakdown...

The relationships between rooting potential with endogenous phenolic compounds, nitrogen and soluble carbohydrates of cuttings for five olive cultivars (‘Rowghani’, ‘Dusti’, ‘Tokhmekabki’, ‘Konservalia’ and ‘Amigdalolia’) were investigated. Extracts of the leaves and the base of the cuttings were used for analysis of biochemical compounds. Results showed that there were significant differences ...

textile wastewaters due to the toxic effects of dyestuffs and other organic compounds and their stability toward light and oxidizing agents have led to an environmental problem. several treatment methods for dye removal have been investigated. membrane process is one of the simplest and most effective methods for dye removal from industrial wastewaters. electrospun nanofibrous membranes have hi...

drought tolerance of three own-rooted grape cultivars (rashe, ghezil uzum and red sultanina) was evaluated at four different levels of soil moisture contents (40, 60, 80 and 100% field capacity through a factorial experiment based on a randomized complete block design with three replications for a duration of 3 months. results revealed that, grape cultivars, levels of soil moisture and the inte...
