It is interesting to note that they found similar ratios to induce and grow callus
Additionally, few studies have been conducted for determining optimal mineral salts or hormone formulations for Industrial Hemp. Feeney and Punja used the MB5D1K medium formulation and it was shown to promote substantial callus growth. The MS salts medium formulated by Murashige and Skoog was originally used to generate callus growth in tobacco for a study…
Some herbicides and pathogens interact synergistically, resulting in increased weed control efficacy
A minooxyacetate was patented as a herbicide in 1964 .This compound is an in vitro inhibitor of phenylalanine ammonia-lyase,phenylalanine transaminase , other transaminases, and ethylene production in plants . In a major study, AOA was found to be a potent inhibitor of all plant transaminases tested.AOA inhibits alanine aminotransferase competitively with amino acid substrates and…
Cannabis abuse might increase the risk for psychosis by modifying the genetic expression of the CB1 receptor
In fact, studies have shown a correlation between genetic polymorphism of the CB1 receptor and schizophrenia, suggesting that gene variants may confer susceptibility to this disorder.Chronic cannabis consumption results in an increase in dopamine concentrations in the mesolimbic regions of the brain and a decrease in dopamine concentrations in the prefrontal cortex which mimics the…
Succinic acid is among the Department of Energy’s top value-added chemicals from biomass
Bioherbicides are microbes and/or microbial phytotoxins used to control weeds. This approach to weed control, has continued, with world-wide efforts as evidenced in several books and reviews – dedicated to bioherbicides. In order for bioherbicide usage to become more predictable, effective and acceptable, it is necessary to maximize the ability of a bioherbicide to infect,…
As a model we choose a multiple categorical regression with optimal scaling
However, taking into account all these similarities and differences between the two regions, a comparative research could be valuable in order to understand the specificities of the relationship between life satisfaction and risk behaviors. As general satisfaction with life, perception of one’s own life compared with parents and the wish to stay in the same…
Different studies have shown several factors that have a special influence on illicit drug consumption use in young people
Among these single subgroup studies, the majority focused specifically on the TW community, with only a few studies that were dedicated exclusively to TM populations. Interestingly, in the studies that did compare addiction prevalence rates between TGD subgroups, there was more evidence to suggest that TM were at a higher risk for most forms of…
There are various factors that differently affect the consumption of specific substances
To our knowledge, this is the first longitudinal survey that studies the changes of alcohol, cannabis, and tobacco consumption during the COVID-19 lockdown period in a cohort of teenagers from Central Catalonia. Our findings showed a general trend of reduction of binge drinking, hazardous drinking, hazardous consumption of cannabis, and daily tobacco smoking, among 14-…
Participants displayed a general tendency toward a belief that hemp food offered many health benefits
These crops are sources usually rich in fatty acids, sterols, phenolic compounds, and dietary fiber, which have mainly shown the ability to increase satiety and obesity control and prevent other different diseases. Many oils predominantly supply mostly essential linoleic and considerably less α-linolenic fatty acids; however, greater amounts of ALA are found in flaxseed, hempseed…
Substance use can be recreational or as a coping mechanism in difficult socioeconomic circumstances
The present study reports a higher prevalence of past-year use of psychoactive substance use in comparison to 4.1%, 4.4%, and 5.5% for the general population in the Eastern Cape, South Africa, and globally, respectively . Several other studies have similarly reported a higher prevalence of lifetime and past-year substance use in individuals with mental illness…
