[Method] Under the simulated salt environment by using NaCl solutions at different concentrations,the dry weight,fresh weight and ion content of oil sunflower seedlings were determined. [Result] With the increase of NaCl concentration,the growth rate of oil sunflower seedling was inhibited. In addition,its fresh weight and dry weight also decreased; the fresh weight of leaf decreased most significantly by 60%,and that of cotyledon decreased most slightly by 13% at 200 mmol/L NaCl concentration. The dry weight of root,stem,leaf and cotyledon decreased by 35%,39%,55% and 8% respectively,showing a similar decreasing trend with fresh weight. Under NaCl stress,Na+ content in root and stem of oil sunflower seedling increased while K+ decreased. Na+ content was mainly concentrated in roots and stems much more than in leaves; K+ content in roots decreased most significantly by 21% compared with control,and it was relatively high in leaf. Ca2+ and Mg2+ content was decreased slightly in roots and stems; Ca2+ content in leaves and cotyledons was stable; Mg2+ content was slightly increased. [Conclusion] Oil sunflower maintained high mineral ion absorptionunder salt stress,that maybe the part reason for high salt tolerance of oil sunflower seedlings.展开更多

The refractive index, viscosity, acid value, peroxide value, pH values, and values of specific gravity of the vegetable oil samples were measured at various different conditions. The results showed that some of the oil samples have unacceptable values in comparison with the standards.展开更多

This is done for the purpose of finding a replacement for conventional insecticides which has been found to be harmful to man. The seed oil was applied topically at the rate of 0.1, 0.2, 0.3 and 0.4 mL per insect. There were a total of 20 insects per Petri-dish. There were four replicates per treatment. Insect mortality was recorded on 12 hourly basis for 48 hours. The results of insects treated with all dosage rates of C. nucifera showed a significantly higher mortality when compared with the control. In the case ofH. annus, insect mortality ranged from 40-100, 70-100, 60-100 and 80-100% and for J. curcas the result ranged from 0.0-100, 40-100, 80-100 and 80-100% for rates of 0.1, 0.2, 0.3 and 0.4 mL, respectively, from 12 hrs to 48 hrs post application. The control experiment remained at 0% level throughout the period of the experiments.展开更多
