Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsMechanical Scarification and Sucrose Priming Overcome Physical Dormancy in Caesalpinia spinosa (Tara) Seeds from the Peruvian HighlandsWilfredo Ruiz-Camacho, Ítalo Maldonado Ramirez, Juan Eduardo Suarez Rivadeneira et al.Caesalpinia spinose (tara) is a leguminous tree native to the Peruvian Andes-Amazon region, valued for soil restoration and high tannin content. However, its large-scale propagation is constrained by physical seed dormancy caused by a hard and impermeable seed coat. This study evaluated six pre-germination treatments to break dormancy and enhance early seedling development under local agroclimatic conditions in Magdalena District, … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 26, Issue 3 · 12 Aug 2026 · 1,204 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEvaluation of the Optimal Dose of Gibberellic Acid (Full Gib) in the Induction of Sprouting of Yungay Potato Variety Tuber (Solanum tuberosum L.)Wilfredo Ruiz Camacho, Danny Villegas-Rivas, José Manuel Palacios Sánchez et al.This research was carried out in the district of Luya, province of Chachapoyas, Amazonas, with the objective of evaluating the optimal dose of gibberellic acid (Full Gib) in the induction of sprouting of potato tubers (Solanum tuberosum L.) Yungay variety. A Completely Randomized Design (CRD) with two factors three replications and seven treatments was used. Minitat 17 statistical software, ANOVA, … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 24, Issue 4 · 24 Jul 2024 · 6,143 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEffects of Some Environmental Stresses on Bio Indicators and Population Densities of Glomus mossae Fungi Associated with Wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) CropAli Jabbar Abdulsada, Sadeq J.H. Dwenee, Naeem Saeed Dheyab et al.Field experiment was conducted to determine the effect of soil salinity and Fusariume germanium on population of Glomus mossae Fungi within root of wheat as manifested by the fungal spore’s number, density infection and the percentage of infected root by Glomus mossae. The results didn’t show effect the environmental stresses on comparability reproductive for Glomus mossae fungi associated with wheat … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 15, Issue 1 · 20 Mar 2020 · 7,122 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractFlavonoids and Antimicrobial Properties of Begonia fischeri var. palustris in vitro PlantletsEvgeniya A. Karpova, Alexandra Yu. Nabieva, Tatiana D. Fershalova et al.The objective of this study was to design a protocol of the successful establishment of plants of Begonia fischeri var. palustris obtained in the in vitro seeds culture, to evaluate flavonoid content and antimicrobial properties of in vitro plantlets. The significant increase of percentage of seed germination (92.5%) was recorded in the half strength MS medium and 1% agar medium … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 19, Issue 1 · 29 Jan 2019 · 7,649 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractNew Approach to Study Stimulating Effect of the Pre-Sowing Barley Seeds Treatment in the Electromagnetic FieldAliya S. Kasakova, Igor V. Yudaev, Michael G. Fedorishchenko et al.Improvement of the agricultural crops seeds quality with their pre-sowing treatment in the electromagnetic field and the subsequent increase in grain yield and studying the mechanisms of stimulating effects – all those are the important problems of science and practice of the crop-growing sector. The purpose of the presented research was to study the mechanism for increasing the germinating ability … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 18, Issue 2 · 4 May 2018 · 7,346 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEffects of Some Heavy Metals in Some Morpho-Physiological Parameters in Maize SeedlingsSali Aliu, Bekim Gashi, Imer Rusinovci et al.Nowadays the heavy-metal pollution of the soil is causing ever greater problems, exacerbated by the fact that the heavy metals accumulated in plants may, either directly or indirectly, find their way into animals and human beings. Maize is one of the world’s most important crops, ranking third after wheat and rice, so the changes induced by one of the most … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 9, Issue 1 · 18 Mar 2013 · 8,430 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractComparative Effects of Drought and Salt Stress on Germination and Seedling Growth of Pennisetum divisum (Gmel.) Henr.Wafa’a A. Al-TaisanProblem statement: Water stress due to drought and salinity is probably the most significant abiotic factor limiting plant and also crop growth and development. Salinity and drought stresses are physiologically related, because both induce osmotic stress and most of the metabolic responses of the affected plants are similar to some extent. Water deficit affects the germination of seed and the … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 5 · 31 May 2010 · 27,311 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAntifungal Activity of Essential Oils from Some Medicinal Plants of Iran against Alternaria alternateI. Hadizadeh, B. Peivastegan, H. HamzehzarghaniProblem statement: Increasing public concern over the level of pesticide residues in food especially fresh produce has built up adequate pressure for scientists to look for less hazardous and environmentally safer compounds for controlling post harvest diseases. Essential oils as registered food grade materials have the potential to be applied as alternative anti-fungal treatments for fresh fruits and vegetables. Approach: … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 5 · 31 May 2009 · 9,804 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractUse of Barley for the Purification of Aquaculture Wastewater in a Hydroponics SystemA.M. Snow, A.E. GhalyBarley was examined for its ability to remove nutrients from aquaculture wastewater. The effects of seed sterilization using ethanol and bleach and seed density on germination and plant growth were investigated. Surface sterilization of barley seeds had a negative impact on germination. Increasing the ethanol concentration and/or the bleach concentration reduced the germination percentage. Barley seeds were first germinated in … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 2 · 30 Apr 2008 · 7,484 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractVariations in Four Genotypes of Lentil under NaCl-Salinity StressM. Sidari, C. Santonoceto, U. Anastasi et al.Four lentil cultivars, Eston (E), Rossa of Castelluccio (RC), Pantelleria (P) and Ustica (U) differing in salt sensitivity, were examined for osmolyte contents and activities of α-amylase, β-amylase and α-glucosidase enzymes involved in seed germination, in absence as well as in presence of 50, 100, 150 and 200 mM NaCl. The inhibitory effects of NaCl differed, depending on the genotypes … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 3, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2008 · 8,702 accessesView PDFCite
