Abstract:: ... Strigolactones (SLs), comprising compounds with diverse but related chemical structures, are determinant signals in elicitation of germination in root parasitic Orobanchaceae and in mycorrhization in plants. Further, SLs are a novel class of plant hormones that regulate root and shoot architecture. Dissecting common and divergent biosynthetic pathways of SLs may provide avenues for modulating thei ...

Subject:: Elephantorrhiza; Haemonchus contortus; acetates; albendazole; bioactive properties; bioassays; biochemical compounds; eggs; hexane; larvae; mortality; plant extracts; roots; screening
Abstract:: ... In the previous work conducted, it was found that the root extract of Elephantorrhiza elephantina (Bruch.) Skeels. exhibited good anthelmintic efficacy against eggs and larvae of Haemonchus contortus. This study was therefore undertaken to screen fractions of the extracts of E. elephantina for their anthelmintic activity against adult H. contortus using a bioactivity-guided assay. The adult worm b ...

Abstract:: ... The root growth rate in barley (Hordeum vulgare L.) seedlings was measured in parallel with temporal changes in longitudinal (Î´l) and transverse (Î´D/D) cell-wall extensibilities and membrane hydraulic conductivity (L p) in the root extension zone. The root growth rate and biophysical parameters examined were sensitive to UV-B irradiation of shoots or roots and to excessive content of ammonium, g ...
