Guizotia abyssinica seeds, a common bird feedstock, have been explored for the potential of biodiesel synthesis. The oil was extracted from the seeds by solvent extraction and composition of G. abyssi...
Brown pigment(s) formed in Cryptococcus neoformans when grown on media containing extracts of the seeds of Guizotia abyssinica cannot be extracted by common organic solvents or by 6 n HCl or 2 n NaOH....
A protocol was developed for Agrobacterium-mediated genetic transformation of niger [ Guizotia abyssinica (L.f.) Cass.] using hypocotyl and cotyledon explants. Hypocotyls and cotyledons obtained from ...
Amplified fragment length polymorphism (AFLP) and random amplified polymorphic DNA (RAPD) markers were used to provide estimates of the comparative genetic variation within and among populations of va...
Fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) was employed on somatic chromosome preparations of Guizotia abyssinica using a DNA probe of the 18S-5.8S-26S rRNA genes including the transcribed and non-tran...
Somatic embryogenesis was induced in niger (Guizotia abyssinica (L.f.) Cass.) using a simple one step method. Leaf explants were cultured on MS medium with 2,4-D and BAP/Kn individually and in combina...
