A putative Membrane Steroid Binding Protein (designated MSBP1) was identified and functionally characterized as a negative regulator of cell elongation in Arabidopsis thaliana. The MSBP1 gene encodes a 220-amino acid protein that can bind to progesterone, 5-dihydrotestosterone, 24-epi-brassinolide (24-eBL), and stigmasterol with different affinities in vitro. Transgenic plants overexpressing MS...

not beginning or completing the vaccination schedule as recommended in the expanded programme on immunization is one of the major reasons for low immunization coverage. it should be studied in detail for remedial action, if the objectives of the epi in iran are to be achieved as stated. generally, lack of knowledge, lack of motivation and obstacles ore the basic categorical reasons for low cove...

Brassinolide is an important plant hormone regulating growth and development, promoting cell division elongation, photosynthesis respiration, photomorphogenesis, stress resistance improvement, transpiration reduction make a very contribution to the improvement of grape fruit yield quality. In this research, key enzymes influencing factors in brassinolide biosynthetic pathway effects brassinolid...

in this errata, we reconsider and modify two propositions and their corollaries which were written on epi-retractable and co-epi-retractable modules.

The studies on growth regulation in black gram cv. ADT (Aduthurai) 5 exhibited significant changes in growth, physiology and yield due to chemicals and plant growth regulators. Foliar application of NAA @ 40ppm at pre-flowering stage influenced growth characteristics by showing increased plant height, more number of branches, higher leaf area index and leaf area duration. But, with regard to ph...
