Cuticular wax composition of mature leaves of species and hybrids of the genus Prunus differing in resistance to clasterosporium disease

Biosystems Diversity, 2020
The interaction of a host plant with pathogen implies an extremely complex process involving the outer waxy layer of the cuticle, cutin, cell membrane, and intracellular structures. However, the initial contact between plants and pathogens takes place in

ZZE-Configuration of chromophore ß-153 in C-phycocyanin from Mastigocladus laminosus [PDF]

, 1987
The photochemistry of C-phycocyanin has been studied after denaturation in the dark. It shows an irreversible reaction which has characteristics of a Ζ,Ζ,Ε- to Z,Z,Z-isomerization of dihydrobilins. Its amplitude depends on the reaction conditions, with

Analysis of n-alkanes in the cuticular wax of leaves of Ficus glomerata Roxb. [PDF]

, 2013
Leaf cuticle was covered by epicuticular wax consisting mainly of straight chain aliphatic hydrocarbons with a variety of substituted groups. The studies of cuticular characters of leaves had played an important role in chemotaxonomy. An n-hexane extract

A high-recovery, high-density targeted genotyping platform for cranberry. [PDF]

Plant Genome
Abstract The American cranberry (Vaccinium macrocarpon) is a commercially important berry species native to North America. Cranberry is a popular fruit crop with many known health benefits. Thus far, genotyping‐by‐sequencing (GBS) was the only high‐throughput genotyping technique available in cranberry.

The influence of surface energy on the self-cleaning of insect adhesive devices [PDF]

, 2012
The ability of insects to adhere to surfaces is facilitated by the use of adhesive organs found on the terminal leg segments. These adhesive pads are inherently 'tacky' and are expected to be subject to contamination by particulates, leading to loss of ...

Application of Nano-Silicon Dioxide Improves Salt Stress Tolerance in Strawberry Plants

Agronomy, 2019
Silicon application can improve productivity outcomes for salt stressed plants. Here, we describe how strawberry plants respond to treatments including various combinations of salt stress and nano-silicon dioxide, and assess whether nano-silicon dioxide ...

New insights into the properties of pubescent surfaces: peach fruit as model [PDF]

, 2011
The surface of peach (Prunus persica ‘Calrico’) is covered by a dense indumentum, which may serve various protective purposes. With the aim of relating structure to function, the chemical composition, morphology, and hydrophobicity of the peach skin was ...

Physical and Chemical Traits of Grape Varieties Influence Drosophila suzukii Preferences and Performance

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2021
The cuticle-covered surface forms the interface between plant parts, including fruits, and their environment. The physical and chemical properties of fruit surfaces profoundly influence plant-frugivore interactions by shaping the susceptibility and ...

Effect of age and physical activity on oxidative stress parameters in experimental rat model [PDF]

, 2015
Studies have suggested that regular physical exercise has beneficial effects on the brain by modulating the oxidative stress. There is little information regarding whether swimming exercise could attenuate oxidative stress in the brain.
