Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleA New Polyoxypregnane Glycoside from the Roots of Dregea volubilis (L.f) Benth. ex Hook. f and its Chondroprotective EffectSaksri Sanyacharernkul, Akanit Itghiarbha, Prachya Kongtawelert et al.Problem statement: Dregea genus (Asclepiadaceae) is well known for the rich of steroid pregnane contents and these plants are famous for the potential to be applied as alternative biological activities. Dregea volubilis is the only species of Dregea genus in Thailand. The chemical and biological investigations of this plant are interesting to bioassay-guided fractionation, particularly chondroprotective effect. Approach: The research … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 5, Issue 4 · 31 Dec 2009 · 7,455 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleConcentration and Physicochemical Properties of Chitosan Derivatives Determine the Induction of Defense Responses in Roots and Leaves of Tobacco (Nicotiana tabacum) PlantsAlejandro B. Falcón-Rodríguez, Juan C. Cabrera, Eduardo Ortega, Miguel Ángel Martínez-TéllezProblem statement: The chitosan derivatives promote diverse defensive responses in plants, which are affected by chitosan chemical features and concentration. Glucanase (EC 3.2.1.6), Phenylalanine Ammonia-Lyase (PAL, EC 4.3.1.5) and peroxidase (POD, EC 1.11.1.6) are key enzymes in tobacco defense responses. Thus, the aim of this study was to know the behavior of their enzymatic activity in leaves and roots of … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2009 · 9,263 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleIn situ Shear Tests of Soil Samples with Grass Roots in Alpine EnvironmentE. Comino, A. DruettaProblem statement: The presence of vegetation increases the soil burden stability along slopes and reduces soil erosion. Its contribution is due to mechanical (reinforcing soil shear resistance) and hydrologic controls on streambank and superficial landslides. This study presented the results carried out from experimental in situ test focused to study the increased shear resistance of soil blocks due to root-reinforcement. … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 4 · 31 Aug 2009 · 7,259 accessesView PDFCite
EditorialOpen accessEvery word in the titleThe Timeless Contribution of Rootstocks towards Successful Horticultural Farming: From Ancient Times to the Climate Change EraIoannis E. PapadakisGrafting is a horticultural practice by which living vegetative plant organs (root, stem and/or buds) of either the same genotype or, usually, different genotypes belonging to the same species, genus, subfamily and/or family, are tightly connected to each other to form a double-compound plant. In fact, it is a method of asexual (clonal-vegetative) propagation of plants. The basal part of … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 11, Issue 4 · 16 Dec 2016 · 9,521 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleSerotonergic Properties of the Roots of Clerodendron capitatumSiddig Ibrahim Abdel Wahab, Abdel Wahab Hassan Mohamed, Osama Yousif Mohamed et al.The aim of this study is to investigate the pharmacological effects of the methanolic extract of Clerodendron capitatum, CC, (family verbenaceae). These investigations were carried out on isolated frog rectus abdominus muscle and rabbit aortic strips and jejunum and non-pregnant rat uterus pretreated with oestradiol. Results showed that CC did not demonstrate any contracting, relaxant or blocking effects on frog … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 4, Issue 4 · 31 Dec 2008 · 7,847 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsNovel Prefix Tri-Literal Word Analyser: Rule-Based ApproachMohammed M. Abu Shquier, Khaled M. AlhawitiArabic stemming is a technique to find the stem or lexical root for Arabic words through the process of eliminating affixes (preffixes, infixes and suffixes) attached to their roots. Several approaches have been implemented to generate the stem of Arabic words according to a certain level of analysis, i.e., root-based approach, stem-based approach and statistical approach. Arabic language is a … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 11, Issue 4 · 27 Jun 2015 · 6,710 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsDifferential Reaction of Citrus Species in Malaysia to Huanglongbing (HLB) Disease using Grafting MethodHajivand Shokrollah, Thohirah Lee Abdullah, Kamaruzaman Sijam et al.Problem statement: Huanglongbing (HLB) is a phloem limited disease in citrus caused by a fastidious bacterium called 'Candidatus Liberibacter' found in Africa, Asia and United States of America (USA). HLB can severely reduce vigor and yield or kill all citrus trees within 5 years. There is a need to screen and identify suitable rootstock for propagation of clean plan materials … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2009 · 11,139 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsON SMOOTH SOLUTIONS OF NON LINEAR DYNAMICAL SYSTEMS, fn+1 = u(fn), PART IKyriakos KefalasWe consider the dynamical system, fn+1 = u(fn), (1) (where usually n, is time) defined by a continuous map u. Our target is to find a flow of the system for each initial state f0, i.e., we seek continuous solutions of (1), with the same smoothness degree as u. We start with the introduction of continued forms which are a … …Physics International, Vol. 5, Issue 1 · 7 May 2014 · 8,668 accessesView PDFCite
