        Of Cardaria DESV. genus is a species Cardaria draba (L.)DESV. in Iran.Plant is Pereniale . Lower leaves are petiolate, entire, lyrate or sinuate. Upper leaves are sessile with cordate or slightly sagittate base, ovate-oblong, often serrate-sinuate, amplexicaule, with (or without) stipule. inflorescence dense corymbe. Fruit is silicule, obcordate. Pollen grains  morphology Were studied with Optical microscope and scaning electrony microscope to evaluate phylogenetic Relationships. For Optical  microscope studies, the pollen grains were asetolysied  with Erdthman method. After sprayed gold pollen grains on the samples with electron microscope model Philips XL 30 PD were studied. Pollen grains single, isopolar,  tricolpate, elliptic in equatorial view, round in polar view, Pollen grain size of 15-35 µm in length, 18-40 µm in width Are different. Tectum is reticulate. Features of pollen grains coupled with other traits in the interpretation of systematic relationships of this genus are used. Manuscript profile

        In order to evaluate fungal colonization of roots of canola and some weed species eight separated trails were carried out as completely randomized design with 5 replications in 2017 and 2018. Experimental factores were fungal inoculation of Piriformospora indica and non inoculatrdcontrol on nine plant species of Brassica napus, Cardaria draba L., Sisymbrium irio L., Descuaraiana Sophia L., Capsella bursa pastoris Medik., Sinapis arvensis L., Avena ludoiviciana Dureu. and Phaiaris minor Retz.. After filling out pots with 0.6 lit of autoclaved soil, germinated seed were transferred in to the pots and were thinned after wards, leaving two seedlings per pot. Plants were harvested 10 weeks after transplanting. Total biomass, root length colonized and P.indica growth responses were analyzed. The results showed the effects of different fungi on canola and weed species growth were varied. The percentage of colonized roots was different among plant species. The highest root colonization by fungi was observed in canola by 50.49 percent and the lowest one was observed in S. arvensis L . Total dry weight of in species C.bursa-pastoris, C.draba, S.arvensis and P.minor was decreased by colonization of fungi. Fungi growth response of weeds was different from -16.33 to +50.49.

        3 - Controlling Ornamental Cabbage and Kale (Brassica oleracea) Growth via Cycocel
        A. Gholampour D. Hashemabadi Sh. Sedaghathoor B. Kaviani
        Chlormequat (cycocel or CCC), the plant growth retardant, was evaluated for its ability to control plant height in Brassica oleracea cultivar ‘Kamome White’ and ‘Nagoya Red’. Different concentrations of CCC (0, 500, 1000 and 1500 mg/L) were spray More
        Chlormequat (cycocel or CCC), the plant growth retardant, was evaluated for its ability to control plant height in Brassica oleracea cultivar ‘Kamome White’ and ‘Nagoya Red’. Different concentrations of CCC (0, 500, 1000 and 1500 mg/L) were sprayed and drenched on plants 40 days after transplanting. Data were recorded the 60 and 90 days after transplanting. The 1500 mg/L of CCC resulted in about 50 and 20% shorter plants than the control plants, 60 and 90 days after transplant, respectively. The growth of Brassica oleracea cultivar ‘Kamome White’ and ‘Nagoya Red’ decreased with increasing the concentration of CCC. Foliar sprays of CCC controlled plant height of both cultivars. The least record of plant height was obtained by application of 1500 mg/L CCC via spraying method in cultivar ‘Kamome White’ after 60 and 90 days (9.94 and 11.59 cm, respectively). The effect of cultivar type has been significant at p£0.01 level on all measured traits. Manuscript profile

        Tissue culture is an attractive alternative for plant propagation. Micropropagation is a technique to ensure a constant and uniform source of ornamental plants. Matthiola incana is an important ornamental species mainly cultivate by seed. Matthiola incana seeds were germinated on solid MS medium without plant growth regulators. Shoot proliferation and root formation are possible using kinetin (Kn) and naphthalene acetic acid (NAA). Shoot tips and leaf micro-cuttings derived from in vitro germinated seedlings were subcultured on solid MS medium containing Kn (0, 0.5, 1 and 2 mg l-1) and NAA (0, 0.5, 1 and 2 mg l-1) for shoot tips explants and Kn (0, 0.5 and 1 mg l-1) and NAA (0, 0.5 and 1 mg l-1) for leaf explants. Shoot tips media supplemented with 2 mg l-1 Kn without NAA and 2 mg l-1 NAA without Kn resulted in the best shoot length (1.20 cm) and root number (1.90), respectively. The callus was induced from most leaf media after four weeks of culture. MS mediums containing 0.5 mg l-1 Kn and 0.5 mg l-1. The largest number (1.94) and the highest length (16.60 mm) of roots were obtained in MS medium supplemented with 1 mg l-1 Kn+0.5 mg l-1 NAA. NAA prevented root formation originated from callus with concentration of 1 mg l-1+0.5 and 1 mg l-1 Kn. Manuscript profile

        The transition from vegetative to reproductive phase is an important developmental under genetic control. This stage requires the activation of a set of genes in apical meristem, the expression of which transforms the meristem from vegetative to reproductive. The APETALA1 (AP1) gene plays an important role in transition phase and flower meristem identity. The identification and homology of this gene and its deduced protein in Eruca sativa was studied. Total RNA was extracted from flower buds and cDNA made. Specific primers were designed and then used for RT-PCR reaction. The results showed that the desired fragment of the gene contains 782 nucleotides (complete cds). This fragment was called EvsAP1 and recorded in the NCBI database (KX524132.1). BLAST of this sequence with other species, showed that Raphanus sativus and Brassica nigra have the highest similarity (87%) with EvsAP1. The deduced protein of the EvsAP1 gene contains 256 amino acids, which is 82% similar to Raphanus sativus. The total length of AP1 protein obtained from NCBI databases in most species of Brassicace is 256 amino acids confirming the sequence. Examination of location of the different species in the phylogenetic tree showed that all species of Brassicaceae place in clads close to Eruca sativa. The species has the highest similarity with Brassica nigra and Raphanus sativus so that the later and Eruca sativa located in one clade. These results confirm the accuracy of the obtained sequence for the AP1 gene in this specie. Manuscript profile
