Silver thiosulfate (STS, chemical formula Ag 2 S 2 O 3) is an inorganic chemical that can promote early flower growth and promote flower duration in a variety of plants. [2] [3]An aqueous solution of silver thiosulfate can be prepared by mixing solutions of sodium thiosulfate and silver nitrate.
Mayer's reagent is an alkaloidal precipitating reagent used for the detection of alkaloids in natural products. Mayer's reagent is freshly prepared by dissolving a mixture of mercuric chloride (1.36 g) and of potassium iodide (5.00 g) in water (100.0 ml).
Non-vascular plants , with their different evolutionary background, tend to have separate terminology. Although plant morphology (the external form) is integrated with plant anatomy (the internal form), the former became the basis of the taxonomic description of plants that exists today, due to the few tools required to observe.

Panegyric 12, meanwhile, contains a direct allusion to Caesar's Bellum civile. [25] Accentual and metrical clausulae were used by all the Gallic panegyrists. All of the panegyrists, save Eumenius, used both forms at a rate of about 75 percent or better (Eumenius used the former 67.8 percent of the time, and the latter 72.4 percent). [26]
The artificial solution described by Dennis Hoagland in 1933, [1] known as Hoagland solution (0), has been modified several times, mainly to add ferric chelates to keep iron effectively in solution, [6] and to optimize the composition and concentration of other trace elements, some of which are not generally credited with a function in plant nutrition. [7]
Phytochemicals are chemicals of plant origin. [1] Phytochemicals (from Greek phyto, meaning "plant") are chemicals produced by plants through primary or secondary metabolism. [2] [3] They generally have biological activity in the plant host and play a role in plant growth or defense against competitors, pathogens, or predators. [2]
A panegyric (US: / ˌ p æ n ɪ ˈ dʒ ɪ r ɪ k / or UK: / ˌ p æ n ɪ ˈ dʒ aɪ r ɪ k /) is a formal public speech or written verse, delivered in high praise of a person or thing. [1] The original panegyrics were speeches delivered at public events in ancient Athens.
