Biochemical properties and pigment contents of genotypes affected by plant growth regulators and temperature stress.

There is little data, to our knowledge, on the biochemical properties of different sp. genotypes affected by plant growth regulators (PGR) under temperature stress. A split plot research on the basis of a complete randomized block design with three replicates examining temperature stress (planting dates, 8th of April, May and June) (main factor), and the factorial combination of plant growth regulators (PGR, control (CO), gibberellic acid (GA), fertilization (MI), and amino acid (A)), and genotypes (Khuzestani, Mutika, and Bakhtiari) on plant biochemical properties, was conducted.

Physiological and yield responses of purple coneflower ( (L.) Moench) to nitrogen sources at different levels of irrigation.

(L.) is one of the most important medicinal plants in the world showing different biochemical reactions as affected by drought stress and nitrogen fertilizer. The purpose of this study was to determine the effect of nitrogen on soluble protein, enzyme activities, carotenoids metabolism, greenness and biological yield of the under different levels of irrigation.

Terpenoids of Salvia hydrangea: two new, rearranged 20-norabietanes and the effect of oleanolic acid on erythrocyte membranes.

Four abietane-type terpenoids, including two known royleanones and two new, rearranged 20-norabietanes, were isolated from the roots of the Iranian medicinal plant Salvia hydrangea DC. ex Bentham (Lamiaceae), which is used as an anthelmintic and antileishmanial remedy. Their structures were established using COSY, NOESY, HSQC, and HMBC spectral data.
