For this purpose, nodal segment explants which were excised from in vitro grown plantlets (5-6 weeks old) were cultured on MS medium supplemented with 0.5 mg/L BAP in addition to progesterone, estrogen, testosterone, HCG and anabolic steroids (1.0, 3.0 and 5.0 mg/L each). For rooting, the regenerated shoots were cultured on half strength, hormone-free MS medium (as a control) or supplemented with 1.0 mg/L anabolic steroids alone or combined with β-cyclodextrin (10 and 20mg/L) and/or IBA (1.0 and 2.0 mg/L). Results of the present study have revealed that impregnating the culture medium with mammalian sex hormones (MSHs) had, in the great majority, significant positive effects on number of shoots per explant, shoot length, number of leaves per single shoot, and leaf area of Balanites aegyptiaca after 5 weeks of incubation. For example, impregnating the culture medium with 5.0 mg/L testosterone had resulted in the maximum shoot length, number of leaves and leaf area (15.33cm, 29 and 2.78cmrespectively). The highest significant shoots number per explant reached up 4.0using 1.0 mg/L testosterone. On other hand, the least significant number of shoots/nodal segment, shoot length, number of leaves and mean leaf area were(1.0, 1.93cm, 3.67, and 0.1cmrespectively)in response to treatment with 5.0 mg/L HCG. The results obtained showed also that half strength MS medium supplemented with 1.0 mg/L anabolic steroid hormone with or without 1.0 mg/L IBA had the highest significant rooting percentage (75%) and number of rootlets per shoot (5.67). The highest significant root length (5.50cm) was obtained when regenerants were cultured on half strength MS medium supplemented with 1.0 mg/L anabolic steroids hormones combined with 20.0 mg/l βcyclodextrin. The obtained regenerants were easily acclimatized within 4 weeks and transferred to greenhouse with a survival percentage of 95%. The results obtained in this study may indicate the promising future role that mammalian sex hormones (MSHs) can play in enhancement of shoot and root morphogenesis in vitro","PeriodicalId":13830,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Advanced Research in Biological Sciences","volume":"55 1","pages":"14-24"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2017-05-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"81394011","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The research trail was carried on the semen samples collected from 4 bulls through a period of 16 weeks, were diluted with Tris-based extender containing different Trehalose concentrations (viz. 50, 100, 150,200) mM and control, evaluated for semen characteristics at steps of freezing (after dilution, after cooling and Post-Thawing). Results clearly indicated that, 100mM Trehalose group had significantly (P<0.05) higher individual motility in comparison to the 50Mm, 150mM, 200Mm and control group. Moreover, the sperm dead and abnormality was significantly (P<0.05) lower, when compared to the control group. The freezing process negatively affects (P < 0.05) the sperm parameters (individual motility, dead and abnormality), but the current study revealed that this effects were changes from treatment to another’s, it means there is interaction between effect steps of freezing and addition trehalose to Tris diluents of bull spermatozoa, however, overall, this effect was lower when the 100mM trehalose was added to this diluents. Conclussion: The addition of 100 Mm trehalose to TFEG diluents had their benefits on freezing-thawing bull semen.

It is grown in practically every country of the world – in outdoor fields, greenhouses and net houses. The tomato plant is very versatile and the crop can be divided into two categories; fresh market tomatoes, which we are concerned with and processing tomatoes, which are grown only outdoors for the canning industry and mechanically harvested. In both cases, world production and consumption has grown quite rapidly over the past 25 years. Tomatoes can make people healthier and decrease the risk of conditions such as cancer, osteoporosis and cardiovascular disease. People who ate tomatoes regularly have a reduced risk of contracting cancer diseases such as lung, prostate, stomach, cervical, breast, oral, colorectal, esophageal, pancreatic, and many other types of cancer. Some studies show that tomatoes and garlic should be taken together at the same time to have its cancer preventive effects. Whatever it is, we really do not know how or why tomatoes work against cancers. We believe that lycopene and the newly discovered bioflavonoids in tomatoes are responsible as cancer fighting agents. Not only raw tomatoes but also cooked or processed tomato products such as ketchup, sauce, and paste, are counted as good sources of cancer prevention. Tomato is also good for liver health. Tomatoes, aside from being tasty, are very healthy as they are a good source of vitamins A and C. Vitamin A is important for bone growth, cell division and differentiation, for helping in the regulation of immune system and maintaining surface linings of eyes, respiratory, urinary and intestinal tracts. Vitamin C is important in forming collagen, a protein that gives structures to bones, cartilage, muscle and blood vessels. It also helps maintain capillaries, bones and teeth and aids in the absorption of iron.","PeriodicalId":13830,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Advanced Research in Biological Sciences","volume":"32 1","pages":"106-115"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2017-05-13","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"73862748","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Selection of appropriate estrus synchronization protocol should be made on the basis of management capabilities and expectations of the farmer. Synchronization of oestrus can be accomplished with the injection of prostaglandin F2α alone, but it needs proper detection of the ovarian status of the cows as prostaglandin F2α is active in only functional corpus luteum in between 8 to 17 days of estrous cycle. Progesterone may reduce fertility up to 14 percent, but short time progesterone exposure (less than 14 days) is beneficial. Addition of GnRH in the Progesterone or Prostaglandin based synchronization programme is helpful for more synchrony in estrus as GnRH may be helpful to synchronize the oestrous cycle in delayed pubertal heifers and post partum cows (Post partum anoestrum) and further a single, timed artificial insemination is possible with this method. New methods of synchronizing estrus in which the GnRH-PG protocol is preceded by progesterone treatment offer effective synchronization of estrus with high fertility.","PeriodicalId":13830,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Advanced Research in Biological Sciences","volume":"40 1","pages":"67-76"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2017-05-13","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"90742660","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
