Interspecific hybrids were obtained in an otherwise incompatible cross Brassica juncea x Brassica tournefortii through in vitro culture of hybrid embryos. The best response was observed from culture of embryos excised 20 days after pollination on MS medium supplemented with kinetin, alpha-naphthylacetic acid, gibberellic acid, glutamine and casein hydrolysate. One hybrid plant had many distinct...

This study was conducted to examine the effect of Jerusalem thorn (Paliurus spina-christi Mill./PSC) and oriental hackberry (Celtis tournefortii L./CT) fruits black cumin (Nigella sativa L./NS) seed on microbial quality physicochemical properties during storage meatballs +4 oC. For this purpose, PSC, CT fruits, NS seeds were added at 2% form four groups, including control. Prepared meatball sam...

Background: The Gundilia tournefortii leaf contains the chemical compound such as saturated and unsaturated fatty acids. Saturated fatty acid includes stearic and palmitic acid and unsaturated include linoleic and oleic acid, that, these compounds inhibit 5 reductase enzyme. The present study was carried out with the aim of determining the effect of Gundilia tournefortii leaf on spermatogenesis...

This study aimed to investigate the antioxidant and hepatoprotective effects of Celtis tournefortii fruit extract (Ct) against copper-induced liver damage in rats. Thirty-two Wistar Albino rats were divided into four equal groups (n = 8): Control, Copper (Cu), + C. (Cu+Ct), (Ct). Superoxide dismutase (SOD), glutathione peroxidase (GPx), catalase (CAT) activities, (GSH) concentration, malondiald...
