Phenotypic and molecular evaluation of genetic diversity of rapeseed (Brassica napus L.) genotypes
(African Journal of Biotechnology, 2009)
The genetic diversity and relationships among rapeseed genotypes were evaluated using quantitative analysis and random amplified polymorphic DNA (RAPD) markers. Ten morphological and biochemical traits (plant height, height ...
Correlation of antioxidant activity with polyphenolic content in soybeans
(Oxidation Communications, 2009)
Twenty soybean cultivars were analysed for their antioxidant activity and content of isoflavones, flavonoids and total polyphenolics. After extraction with methanol-water (8:2, v/v), isoflavones were determined by C-18 ...
Effects of linuron and dimethenamid on antioxidant systems in weeds associated with soybean
(Versita, Warsaw, 2008)
Changes in antioxidant systems in soybean and associated weeds (Ambrosia artemisiifolia L., Chenopodium album L., Convolvulus arvensis L and Sinapis arvensis L.) were studied in relation to treatment with herbicides linuron ...
Utilization of hybrid vigor in broomcorn, Sorghum bicolor (L.) Moench
(Akademiai Kiado Zrt, Budapest, 2002)
The current commercial broomcorn (Sorghum bicolor (L,) Moench) production is based on open-pollinated cultivars. Having in mind the the success of F1 hybrids in the case of grain sorghum, the purpose of this study has been ...
Evaluation of maize hybrids containing different proportion of NC298 tropical germplasm line in their male parents
(Consiglio per la Ricercame la sperimentazione in Agrcoltura, 2006)
Two main questions in programs introgressing exotic maize germplasm into temperate materials are the choice of available exotic sources to work with, and the proportion of exotic germplasm that should be incorporated into ...
Effect of short-term water defficiency on sugar beet genotypes
(Springer Heidelberg, Heidelberg, 2004)
Trends and achievements in broomcorn breeding
(Akademiai Kiado Zrt, Budapest, 2002)
In the course of broomcorn, Sorghum bicolor (L.) Moench breeding (1) plant characters (plant height, panicle excertion from the point of view of harvesting, the idea of combined use of the plant, and earliness), (2) panicle ...
Anatomical characteristics and antioxidant properties of Euphorbia nicaeensis ssp glareosa
(Versita, Warsaw 41, 2009)
Anatomical analyses found that leaves of Euphorbia nicaeensis ssp. glareosa are isolateral, amphistomatous, with two layers of palisade cells on the adaxial and one on the abaxial side. Laticifers are present by vascular ...
Genetic possibilities for altering sunflower oil quality to obtain novel oils
(Canadian Science Publishing, Ottawa, 2008)
The sunflower is one of the four most important oilseed crops in the world, and the nutritional quality of its edible oil ranks among the best vegetable oils in cultivation. Typically up to 90% of the fatty acids in ...
Effects of gamma-irradiation on antioxidant activity in soybean seeds
(Versita, Warsaw 41, 2009)
There are some reports that low doses of gamma-irradiation could induce antioxidant activities in plant material, including soybean. Irradiation, required for the inactivation of some pathogens and induction of mutations, ...
