A comparison of Olpidium isolates from a range of host plants using internal transcribed spacer sequence analysis and host range studies [PDF]
Olpidium brassicae is a ubiquitous obligate root-infecting fungal pathogen. It is an important vector of a wide range of plant viruses. Olpidium isolates that infected brassica plants did not infect lettuce plants and vice-versa.

Leaves play a central role in the adaptation of nitrogen and sulfur metabolism to ammonium nutrition in oilseed rape (Brassica napus) [PDF]
, 2010 Background: The coordination between nitrogen (N) and sulfur (S) assimilation is required to suitably provide plants with organic compounds essential for their development and growth.

Plant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Citrus greening disease, or Huanglongbing (HLB), has caused devastating losses to citrus production in Florida, with yields declining by over 90% since 2005. Despite extensive efforts, no sustainable solution has been widely effective. Here, transgenic ‘Hamlin’ sweet orange lines engineered to constitutively express the Arabidopsis NPR1 ...

A homolog of the RPS2 disease resistance gene is constitutively expressed in Brassica oleracea
Genetics and Molecular Biology, 2003 In this study, we identified disease resistance gene homologs in Brassica oleracea and assessed their expression in lines resistant and susceptible to Xanthomonas campestris pv. campestris (Xcc).

Earliness, leaf surface wax and sugar content predict varietal differences for thrips damage in cabbage [PDF]
, 2010 When cabbage is cultivated for storage in the Netherlands, it is usually harvested around mid-October. This type of cabbage crop may be severely damaged by thrips (Thrips tabaci).

Plant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.ABSTRACT The curd is a unique indeterminate inflorescence structure, which is the most important edible organ of broccoli. Premature bolting of the curd is a major factor that limits the yield and marketability of broccoli. However, the formation and development of broccoli curd, especially the bolting of curd, remain poorly understood.

Plant Breeding, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Enhancing nutritional quality of oilseed rape requires deeper insight into the genetic control of seed quality traits. This study analysed the effect of varying soil phosphorus (P) levels on seed quality traits in the hybrid cultivar Architect. NIRS and laboratory methods were used to quantify total seed P and phytic acid (IP6) content.

Functional alleles of the flowering time regulator
BMC Plant Biology, 2012 Background Plants adopt different reproductive strategies as an adaptation to growth in a range of climates. In Arabidopsis thaliana FRIGIDA (FRI) confers a vernalization requirement and thus winter annual habit by increasing the expression of the MADS ...

Plant, Cell &Environment, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Seed defence priming is emerging as a novel, cost‐efficient and environmentally safe tool for pest management. It has been proposed as a means to uncouple the defence‐growth trade‐off in plants by enhancing defence responses with minimal fitness costs, but the mechanisms underlying this role remain elusive.
