Ecology and Evolution, 2018 Silicon (Si) uptake by Poaceae plants has beneficial effects on herbivore defense. Increased plant physical barrier and altered herbivorous feeding behaviors are documented to reduce herbivorous arthropod feeding and contribute to enhanced plant defense.

Callose (β-1,3 glucan) is essential for Arabidopsis pollen wall patterning, but not tube growth [PDF]
, 2005 Background: Callose (β-1,3 glucan) separates developing pollen grains, preventing their underlying walls (exine) from fusing. The pollen tubes that transport sperm to female gametes also contain callose, both in their walls as well as in the plugs that ...

Toward in vitro fertilization in Brachiaria spp. [PDF]
, 2010 Brachiaria are forage grasses widely cultivated in tropical areas. In vitro pollination was applied to accessions of Brachiaria spp. by placing pollen of non-dehiscent anthers on a solid medium near isolated ovaries.

PEK14: A Kinesin‐4 Necessary for Male‐Derived Fertility in Arabidopsis thaliana
Cytoskeleton, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Of the 61 kinesins annotated in Arabidopsis thaliana, many are still without assigned function. Here, we have screened an insertional mutant library of Arabidopsis pollen‐expressed kinesins for fertility defects. Insertional mutants for three kinesins showed a significant reduction in seed set.

Engineering of Bioenergy Crops: Dominant Genetic Approaches to Improve Polysaccharide Properties and Composition in Biomass. [PDF]
, 2020 Large-scale, sustainable production of lignocellulosic bioenergy from biomass will depend on a variety of dedicated bioenergy crops. Despite their great genetic diversity, prospective bioenergy crops share many similarities in the polysaccharide ...

Journal of the Science of Food and Agriculture, EarlyView.Abstract The papaya tree (Carica papaya L.), native to the Americas, is cultivated in tropical regions and holds substantial economic importance, with an estimated export volume of 365 000 t in 2023. However, diseases caused by viruses, fungi, bacteria, and nematodes can lead to severe losses.

Characteristics of dynamic changes of the callose in male sterile anthers of Lycium barbarum L.
Xibei zhiwu xuebao[Objective] Callose is a beta-1, 3-bonded glucan that forms a wall structure, which occurs only in certain tissues. When degrading prematurely or delayed, it may lead to pollen abortion.

Crop Journal, 2022 The main defense response to Soybean mosaic virus (SMV) infection in soybean [Glycine max (L.) Merr.] is thought to be blockage of intercellular virus transport by callose deposition on plasmodesmata. But the specific regulatory mechanism remains largely
