to evaluate the competition between wheat and wild mustard (sinapis arvensis) in nitrogen and herbicide levels, an experiment was conducted in ramin agriculture and natural resources university, at 2007-8. a split-plots design in rcbd (randomized complete blocks design) with three replications was used for this experiment. the nitrogen levels (0, 60, 120 and 180kg/ha) arranged in main plots. ea...

over the past 20 years since tribenuron-methyl herbicide registration in iran, reports of erratic control of broadleaf weeds with it have increased in wheat fields of aq qala. in order to evaluate the incidence of resistance in wild mustard (sinapis arvensis) and turnipweed (rapistrum rugosum) to tribenuron-methyl herbicide, dose-response assays were conducted during the years 1390 and 1391 at ...

This study evaluated the possibility of improving the macronutrient status of Cd-stressed white mustard 'Rota' using intensive S nutrition. Three S-SO4 (2, 6, 9 mM S) and four CdCl2 doses (0, 0.0002, 0.02, 0.04 mM Cd) in the Hoagland's nutrient solution were conducted for 14 days. High S supply (6 or 9 mM) appears, to some extent, to affect positively the macronutrient status of Cd-stressed mus...

Article history: Received on: 25/12/2013 Revised on: 08/02/2014 Accepted on: 23/05/2014 Available online: 28/06/2014 The effect of tissue cultured and tissue culture derived Mentha species viz. Mentha piperita(PPR611), Mentha arvensis (SH) and Mentha spicata (SPR 8) on antioxidant potential using lipid peroxidation model was studied. The extracts prepared were analyzed for total phenols and fla...

(S)-2-Hydroxy-3-butenylglucosinolate (epi-progoitrin) was converted to erythroand threo-1-eyano-2-hydroxy3,4-epithiobutanes by combinations of th~oglucoside glucohydrolase and epithiospecifier protein (ESP) from various sources. In all combinations studied the erythro/threo product ratio was about 1.4, except when the thioglucoside glucohydrolase was from Sinapis alba L. and the ESP from Brassi...

The CO(2)/O(2) specificity factor of sucrose gradient purified ribulose 1,5-bisphosphate carboxylase/oxygenase from the C(3)-C(4) intermediate plants Moricandia arvensis (79 +/- 1) and Panicum milioides (89 +/- 2) was similar to the respective values of the enzyme from the closely related C(3) species, Moricandia foetida (80 +/- 5) and Panicum laxum (86 +/- 2). Thus, the kinetic properties of t...
