Some physiological effects of the herbicide bromacil (5-bromo-3-sec-butyl-6-methyluracil) on Asparagus officinalis L. : a thesis presented in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Science at Massey University [PDF]
The root-absorbed, photosynthesis-inhibiting herbicide bromacil (5-bromo-3-sec-butyl-6-methyluracil) was applied in sand culture to tissue-cultured 18-month-old Mary Washington 500W clone of Asparagus officinalis L.

ABSTRACT Previous studies on Cydia pomonella eggs have demonstrated reliable egg adhesion to the leaves and fruits of various apple cultivars. In contrast to biological substrates, this study is focused on standardised synthetic substrates to measure egg pull‐off forces and determine adhesive strength, allowing for an unbiased comparison with other ...

ABSTRACT Crassulacean acid metabolism (CAM) is a water‐efficient photosynthetic strategy involving a coordinated suite of complex traits including metabolic, anatomical and regulatory aspects that shift across the diel cycle. While CAM has evolved repeatedly in land plants, the evolutionary routes enabling this convergence remain elusive.

ABSTRACT Saffron, a high‐value spice cultivated worldwide for its therapeutic and culinary uses, is a sterile triploid species, rendering conventional breeding approaches ineffective. This limitation underscores the need for molecular and biotechnological strategies for its genetic improvement. Flowering, a key determinant of saffron yield, is strongly

Sex‐biased gene expression in dioecious garden asparagus (Asparagus officinalis) [PDF]
Summary Sex chromosomes have evolved independently in phylogenetically diverse flowering plant lineages. The genes governing sex determination in dioecious species remain unknown, but theory predicts that the linkage of genes influencing male and female function will spur the origin and early evolution of sex chromosomes. For example, in an XY system,

From farm to pharma, this review details the engineering of quality in medicinal plants through a science‐driven approach: it first elucidates how genetic and environmental factors inscribe the plant's phytochemical and phytopharmacological profile before harvest, and then dissects the postharvest techniques and technologies—chemical and thermal pre ...
