nrDNA ITS sequence variation of Ferula species were studied by comparing with the other species of Ferula, Leutea and Dorema to clarify relationships amongst the taxa and infrageneric delimitation of the genus Ferula. In ...

Four grasses (coastal: Aeluropus lagopoides & Sporobolus tremulus, and inland: Paspalum paspalodes and Paspalidium geminatum) were evaluated for biomass production, mineral composition and forage quality under optimal non-saline ...

Growth is greatly affected by salt stress, which can be improved by the pretreatment of Salicylic acid (SA) before salt stress. The present study was conducted to determine the effect of seeds presoaking in 50µM, 100µM ...

Ten perennial fodder grasses were compared for growth and yield at New Developmental Farm, Agricultural University at Peshawar, Pakistan during 2006 and 2007. Tufts were transplanted on 16-02-2006 at 50 cm distance in 3 ...

To evaluate the applicability of leaf and canopy photosynthesis models, we compared performance of 6 leaf models and validated 1 canopy model of photosynthesis based on field data of black locust (Robinia pseudoacacia L.) ...

Water scarcity is an important factor limiting cotton production worldwide particularly in Pakistan. To identify drought tolerant genotypes, it is vital to understand their genetic variation for different biochemical ...

Disease resistance remains a prime focus in crop improvement. Based on the field observations and marker assisted screening, we report the gene stack Lr10, Lr17a and Lr27+31 as a resistant combination for spring wheat ...

DREB1 is a transcriptional factor, which selectively binds with the promoters of the genes involved in stress response in the plants. Homology of DREB protein and its binding element have been detected in the genome of ...
