An evaluation of plant ploidy is an important task in breeding and biotechnology. Current methods of ploidy assessment (flow cytofluorometry and microscopy) are time-consuming and costly, and not applicable to real-world agricultural conditions.

Novel Amino Acid Changes Increase Phosphoenolpyruvate Carboxylase Output in planta
ABSTRACT Characterization of previously reported Arabidopsis mutants with increased aluminum (Al) resistance (alr) resulting from greater release of Al‐chelating malate identified three unique amino acid substitutions that each impacts PHOSPHOENOLPYRUVATE CARBOXYLASE 1, a key anaplerotic carbon fixation enzyme.

Carbonization degree is established as a unified structural parameter that synergistically governs the photoluminescence and SOD‐like activity of CDs. Progressive carbonization generates sp2‐conjugated domains where edge‐site carbonyl groups act as catalytic sites for SOD‐like activity.

Soil Silicon Application Alleviates Drought Stress in Sugar Beet (Beta vulgaris L.)
ABSTRACT Background: The increasing frequency and intensity of drought events have led to yield and quality losses in sugar beet production in temperate regions in Central Europe. Under arid conditions, silicon (Si) application reduced beet yield losses under drought. Similar data for temperate climates are missing.

Graft Biology in the CRISPR Era: From Tissue Fusion to Genome Compatibility
ABSTRACT Plant lineage has traditionally constrained grafting compatibility, with monocots generally considered incompatible because of their dispersed vascular bundles and limited secondary growth. Recent studies have shown that embryonic grafting can establish successful graft unions in selected monocot systems by exploiting early developmental ...

ABSTRACT In pursuit of sustainable agriculture, current strategies continue to explore environmentally friendly inputs that promote plant development. Seed treatment is an ancient practice used to break seed dormancy and hasten germination. Although traditional seed treatments yield positive outcomes, the methods adopted raise concerns about the ...

Differing effects on dicots and monocots by Centaurea maculosa. [PDF]
The purpose of our study was to test the effects of the invasive species spotted knapweed (Centaurea maculosa) on plant community. Being efficient at competing for nutrients and water, and for producing offspring, C.

Hypobaric Resilience of Matrix Polysaccharide Biosynthesis in Plants
ABSTRACT Space habitats and transit vehicle interiors are proposed to operate at less than one Earth atmosphere (hypobaria) to minimize engineering costs in space‐based bioregenerative life support systems (BLSS). Understanding how plants are affected by lower‐pressure spaceflight environments and associated stressors will be vital for their use in ...

The control efficacy of a novel laser pulse system operating at 1940 nm was tested. The new system allows effective control of young weeds with 1.5 J. Targeting the plant stem is 53‐fold more energy‐efficient than the meristem. Species morphology and beam diameter significantly influence weed control efficacy. Abstract BACKGROUND This study evaluates a
