The influence of soil from the side space of the street on germination capacity and some morphological characters of seedling s of selected plants species

Acta Agrobotanica, 2013
Germination capacity, length of roots and seedlings and air-dry matter of plants of soybean, cucumber, buskwheat, winter wheat and white mustard were estimated in four soil material: bare soil and grass-covered soil from a side-space ofroads with heavy ...

Impact of forest management regimes on ligneous regeneration in the Sudanian savanna of Burkina Faso [PDF]

, 2007
Annual early fire, selective tree cutting and grazing exclusion are currently used to manage the State forests of the Sudanian savanna of Burkina Faso, West Africa. Such prescriptions, however, are not based on experimental evidence.

siRNA Delivery via Cross‐Linked Gelatin Microparticles Enables Targeted Modulation of Osteogenic‐Vascular Cross‐Talk: An Advanced Human 3D in Vitro Test System for Therapeutic siRNA

Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
Osteogenic‐angiogenic cross‐talk is a vital prerequisite for vascularized bone regeneration. In this study, we investigated the effects of siRNA‐mediated silencing of two inhibitory proteins, Chordin and WWP‐1, via CaP‐NP‐loaded gelatin microparticles in osteogenically differentiated microtissues.

Seasonal fluctuation in germination of short and long-term stored Norway spruce (Picea abies [L.] Karst.) seeds

Journal of Forest Science, 2008
Routine laboratory testing is done throughout the year to determine the quality of forest seeds. This raises the question of how the results are affected by possible seasonal effects on germination energy and germination capacity of seeds. To answer this

Tissue culture of oil palm : finding the balance between mass propagation and somaclonal variation [PDF]

, 2019
The oil palm (Elaeis guineensis Jacq.) is typically propagated in vitro by indirect somatic embryogenesis, a process in which somatic cells of an explant of choice are, via an intermediate phase of callus growth, induced to differentiate into somatic ...
