Enabling the study of gene function in gymnosperms: Virus‐induced gene silencing in Ephedra tweedieana

open access: yesApplications in Plant Sciences, EarlyView.
Abstract Premise As the sister clade to angiosperms, extant gymnosperms are crucial for reconstructing ancestral gene regulatory networks in seed plants. This highlights the need for model systems representing each of their distinct lineages. However, tools to quickly and effectively investigate gene function in gymnosperms are still limited due to the

Botanical composition of Caatinga rangeland and diets selected by grazing sheep

open access: yesTropical Grasslands-Forrajes Tropicales, 2016
Sheep dietary selection from species-diverse Caatinga rangeland of semi-arid northeastern Brazil has not been documented. This study examined the botanical composition of the available forage and diets of Dorper x Saint Ines ewes on thinned Caatinga over-

Interaction Between Actin and Microtubules During Plant Development

open access: yesCytoskeleton, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The dynamic interaction between actin filaments (AFs) and microtubules (MTs) plays a crucial role in regulating key developmental and physiological processes in plant cells, particularly in the formation of specialized cell types with distinct shapes and functions, such as pollen tubes, trichomes, and leaf epidermal cells.

chlorophyll autofluorescence in globular and heart-shaped embryos of some dicotyledons

open access: yesActa Societatis Botanicorum Poloniae, 2014
The regions in early embryos of several species display chlorophyll autofluorescence in a certain order. First, autofluorescence in Pisum sativum appears in the basal part of globular embryos; in Lathyrus vernus in the basal part of early heart embryos ...

Acid rain induced leakage of Ca, Mg, Zn, Fe from plant photosynthetic organs – Testing for deciduous and dicotyledons

open access: yesEcological Indicators, 2021
Simulated acid rains (AR), (pH 3.0, 3.5, 4.0, 4.5, 5.0, 5.5) were applied to green leaves of 13 deciduous trees (DT) and 10 species of dicotyledonous plants (DP). All were incubated at 23 °C within a growth chamber for 72 h.

Nuclear Entanglement: New Insights Into the Role of Cytoskeleton and Nucleoskeleton in Plant Nuclear Function

open access: yesCytoskeleton, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Of the three types of cytoskeleton known in animals—actin, microtubules, and intermediate filaments—only actin and microtubules exist in plants. Both play important roles in cellular shaping, organelle movement, organization of the endomembrane system, and cell signaling.

A survey and analysis of traditional medicinal plants as used by the Zulu; Xhosa and Sotho

open access: yesBothalia: African Biodiversity & Conservation, 1989
A coded list of 794 traditional Zulu medicinal plants is presented with a key to the ailments concerned. Xhosa and Sotho usage of these plants is incorporated. Medicinal usage in the ptendophytes, gymnosperms. monocotyledons and dicotyledons is tabulated.
