Einsatz und Wirtschaftlichkeit von Nutzpflanzen und ihren Produkten (Papier, Öle und Fette, Faserstoffe, Baustoffe u.a.) in knapper, allgemeinverständlicher Darstellung. Wendet sich an einen breiten Fachleserkreis und legt, anders als "Nachwachsende Rohstoffe" (ID 42/93), den...

Seventeen different Azotobacter isolates/mutants were checked for their resistance to various Heavy Metals (HM) (which are predominate in contaminated wismut soil) on agar media plates containing 0.02, 0.1, 1-3 mM of Al, Pb, Ni, Cr and Cd. Wismut soil contains nearly 39 HM of different...

High temperature during grain filling stage is the single most important factor that limits the productivity of wheat. Therefore, studies on enzymes that are implicated on thermotolerance during grain development stages are important. Nine homozygous genotypes of wheat (Triticum aestivum L. em....

The present investigation was conducted with an objective to study the impact of high temperature stress on yield and its components for selecting heat tolerant genotypes. Nine genetically diverse homozygous genotypes of wheat, viz., PBW 343, WH 283, WH 542, PBW 435, UP 2565, UP 2425, EIGN1,...

Twenty one-day-old seedlings of six wheat varieties grown under controlled conditions (growth chamber at 25 ºC) and heat shocked leaves (heat shock of 45 ºC for 2 and 4 h, 50 ºC for 1 and 2 h) were used for membrane stability test as well as for Malate Dehydrogenase (MDH) isozyme pattern....
