The object of this study is to evaluate the influence of silymarins from cultivated and wild Silybum marianum L. plants with different content of flavonolignans, especially silibinin on serum lipids levels and on the experimental atherosclerosis development in rabbits fed on high cholesterol-diet (HCD). Forty eight male six-months-old white New Zealand rabbits (1.8-2 kg) were randomly assigne...

A greenhouse study was conducted to investigate the effects of nitrogen (N) on wild barley (Hordeum spontaneum Koch) interference with winter wheat (Triticum aestivum var. Pishtaz) by an additive series experiment. The experiment was conducted in a split plot design with 3 replications. Wheat plant height losses were on average 30, 10, and 10% in a wild barley density of 16 plants per pot with ...

To investigate the impact of overexpression of AtNRT2.1 transgene from Arabidopsis on nitrate uptake rate and to understand the regulation of endogenous HATS by nitrate and glutamine amino acid (Gln) in tobacco plants, wild-type and transgenic (F line) plants grown on soil for 4 weeks were transferred to hydroponic culture in a controlled-environment with a 16/8h L:D photoperiod at 24? C/20...

although wild safflower (c.oxyacantha, 2n=24) has not been studied to a very large extent, yet it is believed that it can be used as an important source of biotic and abiotic stress resistance genes for improvement of cultivated safflower (c.tinctorius l., 2n=2x=24). in this study, the crossability between these two (cultivated and wild safflower) species was evaluated as based upon morphology ...
