Changes in stay-green and nitrogen use efficiency traits in historical set of winter barley cultivars
(Elsevier, Amsterdam, 2020)
The objective of this study was to compare grain yield, nitrogen use efficiency (NUE) and stay-green traits in winter barley under low and high nitrogen (N) fertilization treatments. Field trials were conducted during two ...
Soil fertility and phosphorus fractions in a calcareous chernozem after a long-term field experiment
(Elsevier Science Bv, Amsterdam, 2019)
In the present study, the long-term effects of crop rotation and fertiliser (manure, harvest residues and mineral fertilisers) use on the presence of phosphorus and its fractions at different soil depths was monitored and ...
Assessment of toxicity and biochemical response of Tenebrio molitor and Tribolium confusum exposed to Carum carvi essential oil
(E Schweizerbartsche Verlagsbuchhandlung, Stuttgart, 2019)
This study was undertaken in order to investigate the biological activity of chemically characterized Carum carvi essential oil (EO) and its effect on oxidative stress parameters in stored product pests. Gas chromatography-mass ...
Optimization and kinetic modeling of oil extraction from white mustard (Sinapis alba L.) seeds
(Elsevier Science Bv, Amsterdam, 2018)
White mustard seed oil (WMSO) was extracted from the ground seed by cold pressing and Soxhlet extraction using n-hexane. A two-step process consisting of cold pressing of white mustard seed (WMS) and extraction of WMSO ...
Kinetic modeling and optimization of biodiesel production from white mustard (Sinapis alba L.) seed oil by quicklime-catalyzed transesterification
(Elsevier Sci Ltd, Oxford, 2018)
The biodiesel production from white mustard (Sinapis alba L.) seed oil (WMSO) by transesterification with methanol over the quicklime powder was investigated in a batch stirred reactor. Two independent first-order models ...
Potential of cyanobacterial secondary metabolites as biomarkers for paleoclimate reconstruction
(Elsevier, Amsterdam, 2020)
Loess is the most important archive of Quaternary palaeoclimate evolution, with more thorough and systematic investigations carried out in the past two decades in the Carpathian Basin. Application of novel proxies in loess ...
In vitro antioxidant, antihyperglycemic, anti-inflammatory, and antimicrobial activity of Satureja kitaibelii Wierzb. ex Heuff. subcritical water extract
(Elsevier, 2021)
As the main goal of this study was the verification of Satureja kitaibelii Wierzb. ex Heuff. in form of the crude extract obtained by subcritical water extraction (SWE) technique in terms of polyphenolic composition, in ...
Pericarp features of wild perennial Helianthus L. species as a potential source for improvement of technical and technological properties of cultivated sunflower
(Elsevier, Amsterdam, 2020)
Although the anatomy of the sunflower achene has been extensively studied, not enough attention is given to the research of the pericarp characteristics as potentially important parameters in the breeding programme. ...
Evaluation of nonstarch polysaccharides and oligosaccharide content of different soybean varieties (Glycine max) by near-infrared spectroscopy and proteomics
(Amer Chemical Soc, Washington, 2005)
A total of 832 samples of soybeans were screened by near-infrared (NIR) reflectance spectroscopy, to identify soybean samples with a lower content of oligosaccharides and nonstarch polysaccharides (NSP). Of these, 38 samples ...
Analysis of oilseed rape stem weevil chemical control using a damage rating scale
(Wiley, Hoboken, 2017)
BACKGROUNDRape stem weevil (Ceutorhynchus napi Gyll.) and cabbage stem weevil (C. pallidactylus Marsh.) can cause significant yield losses to oilseed rape (Brassica napus L.), and chemical control is often needed to protect ...
