the naturally occurring antioxidants: vitamin e, β-carotene and vitamin c are known to ameliorate theoxidative stress generated during various physiological and pathological conditions. the oxidative stress mayoccur at different sites, different times, and by different mechanisms in the animal system. lower levels ofthe anti-oxidant vitamins are associated with poor fertility and production lev...

nowadays, protection of environment and safe agricultural production are an important aims of the sustainable agriculture. also, in attention to abundance of saline soil and water resources in the country, the present research was designed to evaluate pgpr inoculation effect on some morphological and physiological traits of two green bean plant cultivars under salinity stress conditions. a gree...

salinity is one of the most important widespread abiotic stresses which causes toxic and nutritional effects as well as loss of water absorption ability by plants. plants respond to salinity with morphological changes. due to high susceptibility of chickpea to salt stress, some physiological and morphological responses occur following the stress in this plant. thus, different concentrations of ...

In 1911, members of a British expedition walked across the Antarctic to the South Pole, but in the punishingly hostile environment, retracing their steps back to the edge of the continent proved fatal. Over the last 100 years, knowledge about human physiology has greatly increased and, on the centenary of this most extreme of all journeys, this essay explores the true extent of the physiologica...

Increased emotional distress is linked to greater physiological reactions. During relationship conflict, these physiological reactions impact each partner’s physiological and physical well being. This emotional and physiological disturbance has been seen in direct relationship conflicts. Even though the aspect of the conflict that these disturbances are linked to creates physiological reaction,...

eight genotypes of spring safflower (carthamus tinctorius l.) were evaluated for several physiological traits under stress and non-stress water regimes. data were analyzed using principal factor analysis. the factor analysis technique extracted six factors under non-stress conditions. six factors explained about 80% of the total variation, and only 40% of the variance was accounted for by the f...

ornithine is a non-proteinogenic amino acid, which plays an essential role in the metabolism of plants. regard to the chirality of the molecule, physiological response of the plant cells to its two enantiomers have not been widely investigated yet. in the present study, suspension-cultured tobacco cells were treated with 1 mm of d- and lenantiomers of ornithine in normal conditions as well as u...
