ability of cold-tolerant plants to grow in hydrocarbon-contaminated soil.	phytoremediation of hydrocarbons in soil involves plants and their associated microorganisms. differences in environmental conditions and restrictions on species importation mean that each country may need to identify indigenous plants to use for phytoremedation. screening plants for hydrocarbon tolerance before screening for degradation ability may prove more economical than screening directly for degradation. thirty-nine cold-tolerant plants native, or exotic and naturalized, in western canada ...	2003	12929494
effectiveness of phytoremediation as a secondary treatment for polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (pahs) in composted soil.	a greenhouse study was conducted over a 12-month period to investigate the fate of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (pahs) in soil using phytoremediation as a secondary treatment. the soil was pretreated by composting for 12 weeks, then planted with tall fescue (festuca arundinacea), annual ryegrass (lolium multiflorum), and yellow sweet clover (melilotus officinalis). two sets of unvegetated controls also were evaluated, one fertilized and one unfertilized. total pah concentrations decreased in ...	2004	15328979
the flavoring agent dihydrocoumarin reverses epigenetic silencing and inhibits sirtuin deacetylases.	sirtuins are a family of phylogenetically conserved nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide-dependent deacetylases that have a firmly established role in aging. using a simple saccharomyces cerevisiae yeast heterochromatic derepression assay, we tested a number of environmental chemicals to address the possibility that humans are exposed to sirtuin inhibitors. here we show that dihydrocoumarin (dhc), a compound found in melilotus officinalis (sweet clover) that is commonly added to food and cosmetics, ...	2005	16362078
de-inking sludge and phosphorus effects on growth and symbiotic dinitrogen fixation in forage legumes.	the de-inking process produces a waste by-product, called de-inking paper sludge (ds), that contains paper fibers, clay particles and inks and high carbon (c) concentrations combined with low nitrogen (n) and phosphorus (p) concentrations. the use of high rates of ds to increase the soil organic matter thus requires provision of high rates of n and p for adequate plant growth. using dinitrogen (n2)-fixing forage legumes is an alternative to n fertilization under such circumstances. in a greenhou ...	2007	19070161
stable low molecular weight rna profiling showed variations within sinorhizobium meliloti and sinorhizobium medicae nodulating different legumes from the alfalfa cross-inoculation group.	four different low molecular weight (lmw) rna profiles, designated i-iv, among 179 isolates from medicago, melilotus and trigonella species growing in a field site in northern spain were identified. from sequence analysis of the 16s rrna, atpd and reca genes as well as dna-dna hybridization analysis with representatives of each lmw rna profile it was evident that isolates with lmw rna profiles i and ii belonged to sinorhizobium meliloti and those displaying profiles iii and iv to sinorhizobium m ...	2008	18399993
