trifolium repens/atrophy

Intact air-grown (photosynthetic photon flux density, 400 microeinsteins per square meter per second) clover plants (Trifolium subterraneum L.) were transfered to high CO(2) (4000 microliters CO(2) per liter; photosynthetic photon flux density, 400 microeinsteins per square meter per second) or to

An isoflavone was isolated from Trifolium pratense using bioassay-guided screening. The structure of this natural compound was elucidated based on its spectral data, and it was identified as pratensein. The protective effect of pratensein was evaluated using a cognitive impairment model induced by

The aim of this study is to describe the ultrastructural changes of the egg apparatus associated with fertilisation of the natural tetraploid Trifolium pratense. The pollen tube enters one of the synergids through the filliform apparatus from the micropyle. Before the entry of the pollen tube into

Biochanin A is a naturally occurring isoflavone. Its main sources are clover species such as Trifolium pretense, Trifolium subterraneum or Trifolium incarnatum. Phytoestrogens, including isoflavones, are plant-derived substances, which exhibit estrogen-like properties, thus they may be used as an

In September 2002, several unthrifty Verbena canadensis 'Homestead purple' plants were received at the Division of Plant Industry in Gainesville, FL. Symptoms included very subtle yellowing and distortion or stunting of the younger leaves, symptoms that could be overlooked as a nutritional problem.

A 93 nucleotide sequence was found to be strongly conserved between two ssDNA genomic components of banana bunchy top virus (BBTV). Two outwardly extending degenerate primers were designed from this sequence and used in a polymerase chain reaction (PCR) with DNA extracted from purified BBTV virions.

Aims: To determine the gross and histological changes developing in the liver of sheep 8 months after a single period of exposure to sporidesmin and to examine associations between the severity of gross and histological changes to the

In 2003, leaf samples from faba bean plants (Vicia faba L.) showing slight growth reductions and yellowing symptoms were collected in a field near Hebenshausen, Hesse, Germany. Some of these samples did not react in triple-antibody sandwich enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (TAS-ELISA) with

In mid-June 2008, distinct mosaic leaves were observed on a cluster of clover (Trifolium spp.) with light pink and white flowers growing at the edge of a lawn in Palmer, AK. Virus minipurification from leaves of affected clover and protein extractions on a polyacrylamide electrophoresis implicated a

Beet vinasse (BV), a green manure constituted by Trifolium pratense L. uncomposted (TP) and composted with beet vinasse (at 1:1 rate, (TP+BV)1, and 2:1 rate, (TP+BV)2) at 10t organic matter ha(-1) rate were applied during a period of four years for purpose of restoration of a Xelloric Calciorthid

Climate and land-use change lead to decreasing invertebrate biomass and alter invertebrate communities. These biotic changes may affect plant species abundance and phenology. Using 24 controlled experimental units in the iDiv Ecotron, we assessed the effects of invertebrate decline on an artificial

Two experiments were conducted to study the effects of feeding legume silages and providing supplemental vitamin E in concentrates on the oxidative stability of milk. In experiment 1, six multiparous Holstein-Friesian cows were offered 1 of 6 silage treatments in a cyclical changeover-design
