Timing and propane dose of broadcast flaming to control weed population influenced yield of sweet maize (Zea mays L. var. rugosa)
(Elsevier Science Bv, Amsterdam, 2010)
Farmers are interested to produce sweet maize under organic production systems and propane flaming could be a potential alternative tool for weed control in organic sweet maize production. Therefore, the objective of this ...
Isoflavone Composition, Total Polyphenolic Content, and Antioxidant Activity in Soybeans of Different Origin
(Mary Ann Liebert, Inc, New Rochelle, 2010)
Twenty soybean cultivars, originating from the United States, Russia, Serbia, and China, were analyzed for their isoflavone composition, total polyphenolic content, and antioxidant activity. Isoflavones were extracted by ...
Selection criterion to assess wheat boron tolerance at seedling stage: primary vs. Total root length
(Pakistan Journal of Botany, 2010)
Excess boron may exhibit detrimental effect on wheat (Triticum aestivum L.). An effective technique for assessing the response of wheat genotypes to excess boron is required to create high yielding tolerant cultivars. ...
Grain Yield of B73 x Mo17-Type Maize Hybrids from Different Periods of Breeding
(Akademiai Kiado Rt, Budapest, 2010)
Hybrid maize is produced using inbred lines that originate from genetically different (divergent) sources (heterotic groups). Inbred lines from at least two different sources that produce heterotic F1 progeny make up a ...
Towards reducing genotype specificity in regeneration protocols after somatic hybridization between cultivated sunflower and wild helianthus species
(Akademiai Kiado Rt, Budapest, 2010)
Successful application of somatic hybridization in sunflower breeding is limited by low regeneration percentage from fusion products. The effect of pre-treatment media composition on shoot regeneration from electrofusion ...
Assessing drought tolerance and regional patterns of genetic diversity among spring and winter bread wheat using simple sequence repeats and phenotypic data
(CSIRO Publishing, Collingwood, 2010)
This study was conducted to assess drought tolerance and regional-based patterns of diversity of bread wheat accessions and to identify new sources of diversity that could accelerate the development of improved wheat ...
Flower Fasciation: I. Origin of Enlarged Meristem
(Allerton Press, Inc., 2010)
Different ways of formation of fasciated floral meristem were analyzed. It has been demonstrated that distinguishing between phenomena of enlargement of a single growing point and fusion of a few into single one is impossible. ...
On intraspecific variation of Vavilovia formosa (Stev.) Fed. (= Pisum formosum (Stev.) Alef.: Fabeae)
(Pisum Genetics, 2010)
The phylogeny and systematics of tribe Fabeae Rchb. are still somewhat unclear. One of the most enigmatic genera within this group is Vavilovia Fed. representing small highland plants with very specific features. It inhabits ...
Reports on establishing an ex situ site for ‘beautiful’ vavilovia (Vavilovia formosa) in Armenia
(Springer, 2010)
Vavilovia (Vavilovia Fed.) is one of the five genera in tribe Fabeae and consists of only one species, ‘beautiful’ vavilovia (Vavilovia formosa (Stev.) Fed.). The main centre of distribution is the Central and Eastern ...
