Changes in the Autolytic Activities of Maize Coleoptile Cell Walls during Coleoptile Growth [PDF]

Plant and Cell Physiology, 1997
Autolytic activities of coleoptile cell walls were measured in developing maize seedlings. The major neutral sugar components of the cell wall polysaccharides were arabinose, xylose and glucose. The quantities of all these components per coleoptile increased for 5 d after germination, suggesting that levels are augmented by biosynthetic processes ...

Beyond species and spatial boundaries: Enabling long‐distance gene silencing in plants via guanidinium‐siRNA nanoparticles

Plant Biotechnology Journal, Volume 23, Issue 4, Page 1165-1177, April 2025.
This study presents a guanidinium‐containing disulfide nanoparticle (Gu+‐siRNA NPs) delivery system for efficient, species‐independent RNA interference in plants. Gu+‐siRNA NPs exhibit high biocompatibility, low toxicity, and effective gene silencing across plant tissues, enhancing crop productivity. Summary RNA interference (RNAi) has been widely used

Rice Seed Germination Underwater: Morpho-Physiological Responses and the Bases of Differential Expression of Alcoholic Fermentation Enzymes

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2017
The water-, energy-, and labor-intensive system of transplanted puddled rice (Oryza sativa) is steadily being replaced by direct seeding due to the progressive scarcity of these resources.

A Genome-Wide Association Study of Coleoptile Length in Different Chinese Wheat Landraces

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2020
From the perspective of wheat yield improvement, the coleoptile is vital for successful crop establishment, and long coleoptile lengths (CLs) are preferred in wheat-growing regions where deep planting is practiced.

Frequency landscape of tip-growing plants [PDF]

arXiv, 2015
It has been interesting that nearly all of the ion activities that have been analysed thus far have exhibited oscillations that are tightly coupled to growth. Here, we present discrete Fourier transform (DFT) spectra with a finite sampling of tip-growing cells and organs that were obtained from voltage measurements of the elongating coleoptiles of ...

Plasticity of Root System Architecture and Whole Transcriptome Responses Underlying Nitrogen Deficiency Tolerance Conferred by a Wild Emmer Wheat QTL

Plant, Cell &Environment, Volume 48, Issue 4, Page 2835-2855, April 2025.
ABSTRACT Our aim was to elucidate mechanisms underlying nitrogen (N)‐deficiency tolerance in bread wheat (cultivar Ruta), conferred by a wild emmer wheat QTL (WEW; IL99). We hypothesised that the tolerance in IL99 is driven by enhanced N‐uptake through modification of root system architecture (RSA) underscored by transcriptome modifications.

Sprouted Sorghum Extract Elicits Coleoptile Emergence, Enhances Shoot and Root Acclimatization, and Maintains Genetic Fidelity in indica Rice

Rice Science, 2018
The high growth-stimulating effect of plant extract has urged the plant biotechnologists to use natural supplements in the culture media instead of synthetic phytohormones.

Long coleoptile genotype and soil texture interactions determine establishment success and early growth parameters of wheat sown at depth

Environmental Research Communications, 2023
Long coleoptile (LC) - wheat genotypes sown deeper (> 10 cm) than current practice (< 5 cm) enables earlier deep sowing into subsurface soil moisture. The LC genotype shows promise to broaden sowing windows and remove reliance on the shifting seasonal ...

Seedling emergence and herbage yield of summer‐active tall fescue sown at different times and sowing depths

Grassland Research, Volume 4, Issue 1, Page 57-65, March 2025.
Among other factors, sowing time and sowing depth determine the early establishment and forage yield of a pasture in the establishment year. In this work, we propose that, when tall fescue is sown with direct sowing, there is an interaction between these two factors. Abstract Background Tall fescue is sensitive to sowing depth and, in the Pampas region

Association Analysis and Identification of Candidate Genes for Sorghum Coleoptile Color

Agronomy
Coleoptile is a sheath-like structure unique to monocots and is easily observed in sorghum. Colored coleoptiles have been shown to protect plants against abiotic and biotic stresses.
