Planting date, storage and gibberellic acid affect dormancy of Zantedeschia Spreng. hybrids : a thesis presented in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Masters in Applied Science, Massey University, Palmerston North, New Zealand [PDF]
To match the supply of Zantedeschia cut flowers and tubers to the demands of the international market, crops have to be timed to a schedule, which requires control of the growth cycle and, in particular, dormancy.

ABSTRACT Narrow or upright branch angles in shoots and leaves lead to columnar, upright‐growing tree architectures, as observed in various tree species such as Lombardy poplar (Populus nigra var. italica). However, the genetic mechanism underlying this unique growth habit in Lombardy poplar has not yet been elucidated.

Editing a gibberellin receptor gene improves yield and nitrogen fixation in soybean [PDF]
Knockout of the soybean gibberellin receptor gene GmGID1‐2 reduced plant height; strengthened stems; increased the number of branches, nodes, pods, and seeds; and improved yield, seed oil content and nitrogen fixation. ABSTRACT Soybean is an important source of oil, protein, and feed. However, its yield is far below that of major cereal crops.

ABSTRACT The curd is a unique indeterminate inflorescence structure, which is the most important edible organ of broccoli. Premature bolting of the curd is a major factor that limits the yield and marketability of broccoli. However, the formation and development of broccoli curd, especially the bolting of curd, remain poorly understood.

Seed factors involved in early seedling establishment of Festuca arundinacea (tall fescue) : a thesis presented in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Science in Plant Biology and Biotechnology at Massey University, New Zealand [PDF]
New Zealand pastures are commonly based on vigorously growing Lolium (ryegrass) species. In many situations, however, it is often advantageous to combine the vigorous qualities of Lolium species with the versatility of other species such as Festuca ...

ABSTRACT Iron (Fe) is an essential micronutrient for plant growth and development. Rhizosphere microorganisms play crucial roles in plant Fe nutrition, yet the underlying mechanisms remain largely unknown. Here, we assessed the effect of the volatile organic compounds (VOCs) produced by Bacillus velezensis SQR9 on Fe uptake in Arabidopsis, elucidated ...

Improved Longan Genome Assembly Reveals Insights Into Flowering Mechanisms
ABSTRACT Longan is an exotic tropical fruit crop and exhibits off‐season flowering induced by potassium chlorate (KClO3), though the molecular mechanisms remain unclear. We assembled a high‐quality, 441.5 Mb genome of variety ‘Shixia’, with a contig N50 at 28.1 Mb, 29, 325 protein‐coding genes, 26 telomeres and 15 centromeres.

Ethylene Response of Plum ACC Synthase 1 (ACS1) Promoter is Mediated through the Binding Site of Abscisic Acid Insensitive 5 (ABI5). [PDF]
The enzyme 1-amino-cyclopropane-1-carboxylic acid synthase (ACS) participates in the ethylene biosynthesis pathways and it is tightly regulated transcriptionally and post-translationally.
