in order to genetic analysis of rice seed vigour, a cross was carried out between tarom mahalli (tolerant to osmotic stress) and khazar (sensitive to osmotic stress) crosses. linkage map based on ssr markers was derived using 74 polymorphic markers and 192 f2 individuals. germination rate, radicale and plumule length were recorded from 20 plants per 192 f3 families. the loci related to germinat...

To search for new targets of anticancer therapies using phytoestrogens we performed comparative metabolic profiling of the breast cancer cell line MCF-7 and the non-tumorigenic breast cell line MCF-12A. Application of gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS) revealed significant differences in the metabolic levels after exposure with 17ß-estradiol, genistein or a composition of phytoestroge...

Root formation and root architecture of olive microshoots, inoculated or not with Pseudomonas fluorescent P19 or P21, were evaluated by measuring of length and the numbers of adventitious and lateral roots. Three-four nodal in vitro shoots were treated with different population densities (0, 105, 108 CFUml-1) of rhizobacteria. The density of 108 CFUmgl-1 induced almost two times increase in num...

root depth and distribution have an important role in drought resistance and optimization of moisture content of soil. this research was carried out in order to consider of root response of triticale genotypes to water stress and recognition of root trait that can effective in resistance of water stress. this experiment was in a factorial experiment based on completely random design on the year...

to study the effect of salinity and organic matter on chemical composition and root morphology of pistachio cv. badami, budded on seedling root stocks, a greenhouse experiment was conducted as a factorial based on a completely randomized design with three replications. treatments consisted of four salinity (zero, 800, 1600 and 2400 mg nacl kg-1 soil) and three organic matter (zero, two and four...

Tomato (Lycpoersicum esculemtum) belongs to the Solanaceae potato family and is an important crop plant. It is relatively resistant to salinity, but in the saline environment growth and production of the plant significantly reduces. On the other hand, the presence of mycorrhiza fungus can improve the adverse effects of salinity. A factorial experiment in a completely randomized design with thre...

In a pot culture experiment, the root length density, potassium concentration in crop, and total K uptake by wheat (Triticum aestivum var. HD 2285) at different growth stages (CRIS-Crown Root Initiation Stage, MTS-Maximum Tillering Stage, FLS-Flag Leaf Stage and DFS-Dough Formation Stage) were determined. Wheat crop was grown in 72 pots containing 4.5 kg of three types of soils, namely Alfisol,...
