Integrated Metabolomics, Transcriptomics, and Ultrastructural Assessment of the Myco‐Heterotrophic Plant, Monotropa uniflora [PDF]
ABSTRACT A systems biology approach was used to characterize Monotropa uniflora, a nonhotosynthetic, myco‐heterotrophic plant. In contrast to autotrophic plants, myco‐heterotrophic plants obtain carbon and other nutrients by connecting roots to fungi, which establish the physical connection to a photosynthetic host, and thereby source required ...

Influence of surfactant HLB values and commercial agricultural adjuvants on pesticide mimic penetration in plant leaves. [PDF]
Penetration of a pesticide mimic into a spring onion leaf due to the presence of a surfactant additive. Abstract BACKGROUND Effective pesticide action is crucial for optimizing efficacy and minimizing environmental impact, particularly with the increasing reliance on systemic pesticides.

Drought induced metabolic shifts and water loss mechanisms in canola: role of cysteine, phenylalanine and aspartic acid [PDF]
Drought conditions severely curtail the ability of plants to accumulate biomass due to the closure of stomata and the decrease of photosynthetic assimilation rate. Additionally, there is a shift in the plant’s metabolic processes toward the production of

Composition of epicuticular waxes on barley spikes [PDF]
Hydrocarbons, alkan-1-ol and alkan-2-ol containing esters, β-diketones, aldehydes, primary alcohols, hydroxy-β-diketones, free fatty acids and sometimes secondary alcohols are major lipid classes of epicuticular waxes on the spikes of the three wild type barley varieties Bonus, Foma and Carlsberg-II and many of the 40eceriferum (cer) mutants examined ...
