abstract due to calcareous soil conditions, zinc deficiency is a yield limiting factor for wheat production in iran. one solution for this problem is the cultivation of zn-efficient wheat varieties. ten wheat cultivars (nine bread wheat and one durum wheat) with different tolerance to zn deficiency were studied in a greenhouse experiment. plants were treated with zn (10 mg zn kg-1 soil as znso4...

nitrogen use efficiency (nue) is usually lower in paddy rice (oryza sativa l.) than in upland crops. for this reason, any attempt to improve nue through the use of different nitrogen (n) carriers, different rice cultivars, properly timed n application, the use of ni-trification and urease inhibitorsis of prime interest. moreover, zinc (zn) next to n seems to be the most important soil factor af...

abstract this study was conducted at rudasht research farm in isfahan to evaluate tolerance to zinc (zn) deficiency of 30 spring wheat genotypes, using split plots in a randomized complete blocks design with triplications. main plot consisted of two zn levels (zero and 80 kg zn ha-1 applied as zinc sulfate at planting). the results of anova as well as correlations between tolerance and suscepti...

zinc is a substance that regulates neural excitability by binding whit sodium channel and potassium channel. the efficiency of free zinc ion, make down the neural survival rate, reduced the peak amplitude of na+ and make depolarization na channel, increased the peak amplitude of transition outward k+ currents and delayed rectifier. also it is an effective blocker of one subtype of tetrodoxine (...

this research was conducted to evaluate the effect of different zinc (zn) sources on performance, bloodmineral and cell counts of zandi lambs. 18 male lambs at weaning were supplemented with two differentsources of zinc, 25 ppm znso4 and 25 ppm zinc-peptide added to the basal diet as control. live bodyweight, weight gain and feed efficiency improved with zn-peptide supplementation (p

introduction: cadmium is a heavy metal with high toxicity and is best known as a carcinogen element. for protecting human health and environment it is necessary to remove excess cadmium from industrial wastewater before discharging it to surface and ground water. in this study the efficiency of zinc oxides nanoparticles in cadmium removal from aqueous solution was evaluated. methods: this is a ...

The metallo-beta-lactamase BcII from Bacillus cereus 569/H/9 possesses a binuclear zinc centre. The mono-zinc form of the enzyme displays an appreciably high activity, although full efficiency is observed for the di-zinc enzyme. In an attempt to assign the involvement of the different zinc ligands in the catalytic properties of BcII, individual substitutions of selected amino acids were generat...
