Identification and characterization of the BZR transcription factor family and its expression in response to abiotic stresses in Zea mays L. [PDF]

, 2017
Brassinosteroids (BRs) are plant specific steroidal hormones that play diverse roles in regulating a broad spectrum of plant growth and developmental processes, as well as, in responding to various biotic and abiotic stresses. Extensive research over the

Ascorbic and silicic acid application mitigated toxic effects of ozone in mung bean (Vigna radiata L. Wilczek) by modulating growth, secondary metabolites, water relations, and grain quality attributes

Journal of the Science of Food and Agriculture, EarlyView.
Abstract BACKGROUND Elevated levels of tropospheric ozone (O3) pose a significant threat to plant health and productivity. Developing ozone‐tolerant varieties is crucial for mitigating these environmental stresses. This study investigates the effects of ascorbic acid (AA) and silicic acid (SA) treatments on 12 different mung bean varieties under ...

Plasma‐activated water to foster sustainable agriculture: Evidence and quest for the fundamentals

PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
An increasing world population facing limited natural resources poses a global challenge to food security. This challenge is increasing due to climate change, which in turn is strongly affected by the food system that accounts, according to the Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO), for one‐third of the global greenhouse gas emissions.

Interactions between ethylene, gibberellins, and brassinosteroids in the development of rhizobial and mycorrhizal symbioses of pea

Journal of Experimental Botany, 2016
Highlight An ethylene-insensitive mutant of pea with enhanced nodulation and arbuscular mycorrhizal development showed that gibberellin and brassinosteroid deficiency affect nodule number via ethylene levels.

Enhanced herbicidal activity of coumarin via carbon dot nanoformulation: synthesis and evaluation

Pest Management Science, EarlyView.
We synthesized carbon nanocarriers from black wolfberry and combined them with coumarin to prepare coumarin‐loaded carbon dots (Cm‐CDs) nanocomplexes, which could significantly enhance the inhibitory effect of coumarin on weeds. Abstract BACKGROUND The integration of nanocarriers with biochemicals can markedly enhance the stability and efficacy of ...

Elastic cavitation, tube hollowing, and differential growth in plants and biological tissues [PDF]

, 2010
Elastic cavitation is a well-known physical process by which elastic materials under stress can open cavities. Usually, cavitation is induced by applied loads on the elastic body. However, growing materials may generate stresses in the absence of applied

Connecting growth and defense: the emerging roles of brassinosteroids and gibberellins in plant innate immunity.

Molecular Plant, 2014
Brassinosteroids (BRs) and gibberellins (GAs) are two groups of phytohormones that regulate many common developmental processes throughout the plant life cycle.

Controlling plant architecture by manipulation of gibberellic acid signalling in petunia. [PDF]

, 2014
Since stem elongation is a gibberellic acid (GA) response, GA inhibitors are commonly used to control plant height in the production of potted ornamentals and bedding plants. In this study, we investigated interfering with GA signaling by using molecular

Endogenous rhythmic growth and ectomycorrhizal fungi modulate priming of antiherbivore defences in subsequently formed new leaves of oak trees

Journal of Ecology, EarlyView.
A first herbivore attack primes direct and indirect defences of newly formed oak leaves and, the specific display of defence priming is regulated by rhythmic growth, and modulated by the interaction with the ectomycorrhizal fungus Piloderma croceum. Therefore, the priming memory in oaks can be transmitted to the next growth cycle. GC, growth cycle; SF,
