Genetics of quantitative traits from interspecific crosses between Luffa hermaphrodita × Luffa cylindrica

Vegetable Science, 2023
Generation mean analysis study in sponge gourd was undertaken to estimate the gene action operating in the inheritance of quantitative traits using six basic generations of two interspecific crosses, namely SATPUTIA × SG 282 and SATPUTIA × PSG 9. The F2 and backcross generations showed high genetic variance for vine length, fruit weight and fruits per ...

Theoretical and Electrochemical Evaluation of Cannabis Sativa L. Extracts as Corrosion Inhibitors for Mild Steel in Acidic Medium

ChemistryOpen, Volume 14, Issue 5, May 2025.
This study examines ethanol (EET), hexane (EHX), and dichloromethane (EDM) extracts of C. sativa L. as eco‐friendly corrosion inhibitors for mild steel in 1 M HCl. At 0.8 g/L, inhibition efficiencies of 90 %, 88 %, and 81 % are observed. Adsorption follows the Langmuir isotherm, supported by DFT, Monte Carlo, and molecular dynamics simulations ...
