Estimating the cardinal temperatures of germination for Ipomoea hederaceae and Cleome viscosa at constant alternating temperature conditions

Citrinin is a nephrotoxic mycotoxin produced by several species of the genus and Monascus. Citrinin is generally formed after harvest and occurs mainly in stored grains. efficacy of different concentrations of aqueous leaf extracts of Rhazya stricta Decne and Cleome amblyocarpa two fungal strains Penicillium notatum and Aspergillus niger and fungal biomass by the isolates was suppressed, depend...

Cleome pallida is the name to be used for Dipterygium glaucum, widespread in desert habitats of northeastern Africa and southwestern Asia, when this species treated as a Cleome. A comprehensive synonymy provided all names are typified. The record Bunias orientalis made by Forsskål Yemen shown based on misidentified material C. pallida. new combination cornus-africani endemic Somalia that was fi...

C(4) photosynthesis involves alterations to the biochemistry, cell biology, and development of leaves. Together, these modifications increase the efficiency of photosynthesis, and despite the apparent complexity of the pathway, it has evolved at least 45 times independently within the angiosperms. To provide insight into the extent to which gene expression is altered between C(3) and C(4) leave...

Malaria is a protozoal disease transmitted by the Anopheles mosquito, caused by minute parasitic protozoa of the genus Plasmodium, which infect human and insect hosts alternatively. It affects over 40% of the worldís population, with 120 million cases reported, and about 2 million deaths annually (1). The P. falciparum variety of the parasite accounts for 80% of cases and 90% of deaths caused b...

The atherosclerotic effect of Methanolic extract of Cleome viscosa was studied in Streptozotocin induced Diabetic Rats fed with Atherogenic Diet [1.5 ml olive oil containing 8 mg of vitamin D-2 and 40 mg cholesterol] for 5 consecutive days. Oral administration of extract to diabetic rats [250 mg/kg and 500 mg/kg for 30 days] produced significant (p<0.01) fall in fasting blood glucose levels in ...
