Effect of Sugar Beet Genotype, Planting and Harvesting Dates and Their Interaction on Sugar Yield
(Frontiers Media Sa, Lausanne, 2018)
Climate changes are affecting the plant production, including sugar beet growing especially in the southern and central parts of the Europe. Modifying the sowing and harvesting dates are one of the most often used adaptations ...
White Mustard (Sinapis alba L.) Oil in Biodiesel Production: A Review
(Frontiers Media Sa, Lausanne, 2020)
White mustard (Sinapis alba L.) seed oil is used for cooking, food preservation, body and hair revitalization, biodiesel production, and as a diesel fuel additive and alternative biofuel. This review focuses on biodiesel ...
Heavy metals, organics and radioactivity in soil of western Serbia
(Elsevier, Amsterdam, 2010)
Western Serbia is a region well-known for potato production. Concentrations of selected metals, polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) and radioactivity were measured in the soil in order to evaluate the quality and ...
Detection of genetically modified soybean in crude soybean oil
(Elsevier Sci Ltd, Oxford, 2014)
In order to detect presence and quantity of Roundup Ready (RR) soybean in crude oil extracted from soybean seed with a different percentage of GMO seed two extraction methods were used, CTAB and DNeasy Plant Mini Kit. The ...
Polyphenol contents and antioxidant activity of soybean seed extracts
(Elsevier Sci Ltd, Oxford, 2008)
The antioxidant activity and contents of various polyphenol classes in the seeds of 20 soybean hybrids were evaluated. Total polyphenols, tannins and proanthocyanidins were determined after extraction of plant material ...
Comparison of phenolic profiles and antioxidant properties of European Fagopyrum esculentum cultivars
(Elsevier Sci Ltd, Oxford, 2015)
The purpose of this study was to investigate composition and content of phenolic compounds in seeds of common buckwheat (Fagopyrum esculentum Moench) cultivars from Western, Central and Southeastern Europe grown in the ...
Epigenetics: possible applications in climate-smart crop breeding
(Oxford Univ Press, Oxford, 2020)
To better adapt transiently or lastingly to stimuli from the surrounding environment, the chromatin states in plant cells vary to allow the cells to fine-tune their transcriptional profiles. Modifications of chromatin ...
Biodiesel production from corn oil: A review
(Pergamon-Elsevier Science Ltd, Oxford, 2018)
This paper deals with biodiesel production from corn oil as a feedstock via the transesterification and esterification reactions. To date, corn oil has not been considered a viable biodiesel feedstock because of its high ...
Strategy for exploiting exotic germplasm using genetic, morphological, and environmental diversity: the Aegilops tauschii Coss. example
(Springer, New York, 2013)
Hexaploid bread wheat evolved from a rare hybridisation, which resulted in a loss of genetic diversity in the wheat D-genome with respect to the ancestral donor, Aegilops tauschii. Novel genetic variation can be introduced ...
Host-specific competitiveness to form nodules in Rhizobium leguminosarum symbiovar viciae
(Wiley, Hoboken, 2020)
Fabeae legumes such as pea and faba bean form symbiotic nodules with a large diversity of soil Rhizobium leguminosarum symbiovar viciae (Rlv) bacteria. However, bacteria competitive to form root nodules (CFN) are generally ...
