Molecular detection of nematicidal crystalliferous Bacillus thuringiensis strains of Iran and evaluation of their toxicity on free-living and plant-parasitic nematodes
Gholamreza Salehi Jouzani,Ali Seifinejad,Abbas SaeedizadehA. Saeedizadeh,Amin NazarianA. Nazarian,Majid YouseflooM. Yousefloo,S. Soheilivand,Maryam Mousivand,Rosa JahangiriR. Jahangiri,Mehdi YazdaniM. Yazdani,Reza Maali Amiri,Sepideh AkbariS. Akbari +10 more
TL;DR: PCR is a useful technique for toxicity prediction of nematicidal Bt isolates and four isolates did not show the expected PCR product size for cry5, cry6, and cry21 genes; they might contain potentially novel insecticidal crystal protein genes.
Journal ArticleDOI

TL;DR: The characterization of the strains containing Coleopteran-specific and also putative novel cry genes in Iranian native Bacillus thuringiensis collection is presented, which showed higher activity against X. luteola larvae than B. thurringiensis subsp.
Journal ArticleDOI
Fueling the future; plant genetic engineering for sustainable biodiesel production
TL;DR: The intent of the present review paper is to review and critically discuss the recent genetic and metabolic engineering strategies developed to overcome the shortcoming faced in nonedible plants, including Jatropha curcas and Camelina sativa, as emerging platforms for biodiesel production.
Breeding of Saffron (Crocus sativus): Possibilities and Problems
TL;DR: The present report is a reflection of a large research project related to the problem of saffron breeding, started in ABRII in 2003 and submitted as a new project with 15 subprojects.
