in the framework of a study on the powdery mildew fungi in iran, several infected plant specimens were collected from around the country during 2001-2009. based on the results of the study erysiphe quercicola on quercus sp. and e. malvae on malva sp., golovinomyces ambrosiae on helianthus spp., golovinomyces fischeri on senecio glaucus, are the newly reported for iranian mycobiota. in addition,...

The contribution of gene expression modulation to phenotypic evolution is of major importance to an understanding of the origin of divergent or convergent phenotypes during and following polyploid speciation. Here, we analyzed genome-wide gene expression in 2 subspecies of the allotetraploid species, Senecio mohavensis A. Gray, and its diploid parents S. flavus (Decne.) Sch. Bip. and S. glaucus...

Unfavorable conditions can affect on secondary metabolites production in the plants. The aim of present study was to evaluate the effect of heavy metals accumulation on antibacterial potential of Chenopodium murale L., Senecio glaucus L., Malva parviflora L. and Calendula arvensis L. grown in an industrial area of steel production in Ahvaz, southwest of Iran. The cadmium (Cd), iron (Fe), mangan...

many powdery mildew fungi occur as anamorphic state on different host plants in guilan province, iran. the species have usually been identified as oidium spp. in order to identify teleomorphic species using anamorphic characteristics and host range, several infected plant specimens were collected from around guilan province during 2004-2011. based upon  the  results of the study 25 species were...
