In flowering plants, pollen grains are produced in the anther and released to the external environment with the primary function of delivering sperm cells to the female gametophyte. This study was conducted to identify proteins in tomato pollen and to analyse their roles in relation to pollen function. Tomato is an important crop which is grown worldwide and is an excellent experimental system....

The study was conducted to adapt and evaluate the performance of improved bee forage recommend best performing species for honey production at Haro Sabu districts from 2013-2014 G.C. evaluated plant were Medicago sativa , Phocilia indicum, Melilotus officinalis, Trifolium ruppellianum Fagophyrum japonicum, esculentum, Coriandrum sativum Sinaps alba which sown on station with Randomized complete...

Ferredoxin-glutamate synthase was localized in leaves and cotyledons of tomato (Lycopersicon esculentum, cv Hellfrucht früshstamm) seedlings by immunocytochemical methods. The present work established that the enzyme was not only a constituent of chloroplast stroma of the mesophyll cells, but also of the cells of xylem parenchyma and epidermis.

OTH self-fertile and self-incompatible species are found in the genus BLycopersicon (LAMM 1950). The self-incompatibility in L. peruuianum was shown to be of the Nicotiana or multiple-allelic gametophytic type by MCGUIRE and RICK (1954). Less extensive evidence suggested similar genetic control in L. hirsutum, L. glandulosum, and L. chilense (L. peruvianum f . dentatum) . I n addition, the inhe...

Chimeric genes containing a pollen-specific promoter from tomato (Lycopersicon esculentum) or the CaMV35S promoter were transiently expressed following their introduction into tobacco (Nicotiana tabacum) pollen using high velocity microprojectiles. Transient expression of the microprojectile-introduced genes in leaves and pollen was similar to that observed for these genes in stably transformed...

The purpose of this study was to investigate the chemical composition and biological activity of the volatile oils (VOs) from the flowers of three buckwheat species, Fagopyrum esculentum, Fagopyrum tataricum and Fagopyrum cymosum. The VOs were obtained from the fresh buckwheat flowers by hydrodistillation, and were analyzed for their chemical composition by gas chromatography-mass spectrometry ...
