Marrubium vulgareis a plant with high bioactive potential. It contains marrubiin, a labdane diterpene that is characteristic for this genus, as well as a complex mixture of phenolic compounds. According to numerous studies,M. ...
Grinding and Fractionation during Distillation Alter Hemp Essential Oil Profile and Its Antimicrobial Activity
(Basel : MDPI, 2020)
The hypothesis of this study was that we can modify the essential oil (EO) profile of hemp (Cannabis sativaL.) and obtain fractions with differential composition and antimicrobial activity. Therefore, the objective was to ...
Salt-induced changes in the antioxidant system and viability of oilseed rape
(Lithuanian Research Centre Agriculture & Forestry, Kedainiu R, 2017)
This work was aimed to investigate the effect of salt (NaCl) stress on three oilseed rape (Brassica napus L.) cultivars: 'Banacanka', 'Jasna' and 'Kata'. The following parameters were determined: antioxidant enzymes ...
An investigation of tebuconazole degradation using a gold electrode
(Elsevier France-Editions Scientifiques Medicales Elsevier, Paris, 2016)
Tebuconazole, a pesticide that presents risks for ecosystems, groundwater and human health, was degraded on a gold electrode as the catalyst in 0.05 M NaHCO3 using cyclic voltammetry (CV). First, tebuconazole was characterized ...
Sunflower Genetics from Ancestors to Modern Hybrids-A Review
(Basel : MDPI, 2018)
Domestication and the first steps of sunflower breeding date back more than 4000 years. As an interesting crop to humans, sunflower underwent significant changes in the past to finally find its place as one of the most ...
Interaction of Two Neonicotinoid Insecticides and Lr Genes Focusing Wheat Growth and Residues
(Czech Academy Agricultural Sciences, Prague, 2015)
Seedlings of ten Lr near-isogenic lines (NIL) and four wheat lines with enhanced resistance to Puccinia triticina were treated with overdosed neonicotinoid insecticides. The enzyme of Lr 20 gene accelerated thiacloprid ...
Sustainable Organic Corn Production with the Use of Flame Weeding as the Most Sustainable Economical Solution
(Basel : MDPI, 2021)
Flame weeding is an alternative method of weed control. Essentially, it is a supplement to other physical and mechanical processes used in organic production. Weed control costs have a large share of the total cost of crop ...
Antioxidant potential in Stevia rebaudiana callus in response to polyethylene glycol, paclobutrazol and gibberellin treatments
(Springer, New York, 2018)
The study on Stevia callus has the potential to advance the knowledge of antioxidant mechanisms involved in unorganized cells response to drought stress. The effects of polyethylene glycol (PEG; 0 and 4% w/v) in combination ...
