The Effects Of Ultraviolet Radiation On Some Antioxidant Compounds And Enzymes In Capsicum Annuum L., Kobra Mahdavian, M. Ghorbanli, Khosrow Manochehri Kalantari
The Effects Of Ultraviolet Radiation On Some Antioxidant Compounds And Enzymes In Capsicum Annuum L., Kobra Mahdavian, M. Ghorbanli, Khosrow Manochehri Kalantari
Turkish Journal of Botany
Plants have evolved mechanisms to avoid and repair UV radiation damage; it is not surprising that photomorphogenic responses to UV-B and UV-C are often assumed to be adaptations to harmful radiation. Free radicals generated by UV are likely to be involved in the induction of antioxidant defence system. In this study plants were grown for 5 weeks in controlled conditions. Plants were grown in vermiculite medium before applying the UV treatments, and irrigated daily by Hoagland solution for 5 weeks. After 5 weeks, plants were exposed to UV-A (320-390 nm), UV-B (312 nm), and UV-C (254 nm) irradiation with a …

Heavy Metal Pollution In The Boatin Reserve (Bulgaria), Georgi Borisov Angelov
Heavy Metal Pollution In The Boatin Reserve (Bulgaria), Georgi Borisov Angelov
Turkish Journal of Botany
Background concentrations of the heavy metals Mn, Ni, Cd, Co, Zn, Cu, and Pb in the soils and plant monitors of the Boatin Reserve were determined by inductively coupled plasma atomic emission spectrometry (ICP-AES). Surface soil layers of the Boatin Reserve were polluted with Cu, as its concentration exceeded both the national legal standards and the content of Cu in non-polluted areas. Analysis of heavy metals accumulation in all studied plant monitors indicated that the content of Cu, Pb, and Zn exceeded their concentration in non-polluted areas. It may be concluded that the heavy metals Cu, Pb, and Zn are …

Floristic Diversity, Conservation Status And Economic Value Of Miniature Sacred Groves In Kanyakumari District, Tamil Nadu, Southern Peninsular India, Selvamony Sukumaran, Solomon Jeeva, Appavoo Deva Sobhana Raj, Doraipandian Kannan
Floristic Diversity, Conservation Status And Economic Value Of Miniature Sacred Groves In Kanyakumari District, Tamil Nadu, Southern Peninsular India, Selvamony Sukumaran, Solomon Jeeva, Appavoo Deva Sobhana Raj, Doraipandian Kannan
Turkish Journal of Botany
The plant diversity of southern peninsular India has recently been reduced to a great extent due to anthropogenic disturbance and environmental degradation. Disturbance was the major factor responsible for fragmentation of forest vegetation; as a result of this, there is a preponderance of small patches, some of them still preserved as sacred groves because of strong religious beliefs held by the indigenous people of this region. It is thought that one of the prime utilities of sacred groves is the protection and occasional supply of medicinal plants on a sustainable basis. Most of the medicinal plants were confined to these …

Studies On The Effect Of Maleic Hydrazide On Root Tip Cells And Pollen Fertility In Trigonella Foenum-Graecum L., Farha Jabee, Mohammad Yunus Khalil Ansari, Danish Shahab
Turkish Journal of Botany
In the present investigation, the effect of maleic hydrazide (MH) has been studied on seed germination, mitosis, and pollen fertility of Trigonella foenum-graecum L. to test its cytotoxicity. Six different concentrations (0.01%, 0.02%, 0.03% 0.04%, 0.05%, and 0.06%) of maleic hydrazide (MH) were given at seed level. The abnormalities noticed were both physiological and clastogenic. Fragments, stickiness of chromosomes, univalents, multivalents, and anaphase bridges were the most frequent abnormalities. The decrease in seed germination and pollen fertility was found significant at 0.05 level. Mitotic index reduced gradually as the concentrations of Maleic Hydrazide increased and it was found significant at …
Herbaceous Plant Cover Establishment In A Barren Materials Quarry, Nikolaos Arambatzis, Kitikidou Kyriaki
Herbaceous Plant Cover Establishment In A Barren Materials Quarry, Nikolaos Arambatzis, Kitikidou Kyriaki
Turkish Journal of Botany
The ability to establish cover using grass and legume species without any soil preparation was studied in a barren materials quarry. The biodiversity indexes (Simpson) during the growing season as well as the vegetation cover and composition were measured. The results showed that the established species had a satisfactory cover (up to 87.5%). This means that we can achieve significant soil rehabilitation after mining using herbaceous plant cover and reduce the cost of rehabilitation by cutting the expenses of soil preparation.
