Ethylene Response of Plum ACC Synthase 1 (ACS1) Promoter is Mediated through the Binding Site of Abscisic Acid Insensitive 5 (ABI5). [PDF]
The enzyme 1-amino-cyclopropane-1-carboxylic acid synthase (ACS) participates in the ethylene biosynthesis pathways and it is tightly regulated transcriptionally and post-translationally.

Genotypic variation of dormancy in wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) : a thesis presented in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Agricultural Science, Department of Plant Science, Massey University, Palmerston North, New Zealand [PDF]
Embryo dormancy and α - amylase dormancy are desirable in wheat to minimise pre-harvest sprouting damage. The current work focuses on the embryo and graincoat colour.

Clustering of the K+ channel GORK of Arabidopsis parallels its gating by extracellular K+ [PDF]
GORK is the only outward-rectifying Kv-like K<sup>+</sup> channel expressed in guard cells. Its activity is tightly regulated to facilitate K<sup>+</sup> efflux for stomatal closure and is elevated in ABA in parallel with ...

Nitric oxide sensing in plants is mediated by proteolytic control of group VII ERF transcription factors [PDF]
Nitric oxide (NO) is an important signaling compound in prokaryotes and eukaryotes. In plants, NO regulates critical developmental transitions and stress responses.

Geometric-algebraic approach to aqueous solutions of diprotic acids and its buffer mixtures [PDF]
A closed-form analytical expression for $\ce{[H3O+]}$ has been obtained for aqueous solutions of diprotic acids and its soluble salts. This formula allows to calculate the pH of aqueous solutions of diprotic acids, their buffer solutions, and the titrations of these two by a strong base, from the values of p$K_1$, p$K_2$, and the effective ...

Anion channel sensitivity to cytosolic organic acids implicates a central role for oxaloacetate in integrating ion flux with metabolism in stomatal guard cells [PDF]
Stomatal guard cells play a key role in gas exchange for photosynthesis and in minimizing transpirational water loss from plants by opening and closing the stomatal pore.

Bridging physiological and evolutionary time scales in a gene regulatory network [PDF]
Gene regulatory networks (GRN) govern phenotypic adaptations and reflect the trade-offs between physiological responses and evolutionary adaptation that act at different time scales. To identify patterns of molecular function and genetic diversity in GRNs, we studied the drought response of the common sunflower, Helianthus annuus, and how the ...

Roles of Abscisic Acid in Fruit Ripening
Abscisic acid (ABA) is a plant growth regulator, and it plays a variety of important roles throughout a plant’s life cycle. These roles include seed development and dormancy, plant response to environmental stresses, and fruit ripening. ABA concentration

Carbon Doping of MgB2 by Toluene and Malic-Acid-in-Toluene [PDF]
The decomposition of malic acid in the presence of Mg and B was studied using Differential Scanning Calorimetry (DSC) and Thermogravimetric Analysis (TGA) which revealed that malic acid reacted with Mg but not B. Also, the addition of toluene to dissolve malic acid followed by subsequent drying resulted in no reaction with Mg, indicating that the malic
