Use of the beta growth function to quantitatively characterize the effects of plant density and a growth regulator on growth and biomass partitioning in cotton

Field crops research (Print), 2018
Allocation of newly formed biomass towards plant organs is a key determinant of plant performance that is affected by agronomic practices such as plant population density and use of growth regulators. Here we quantified biomass allocation of intercropped

Foliar spray of prohexadione-calcium improves the adaptability of mung bean to saline-alkali stress

Frontiers in Plant Science
IntroductionSaline-alkali soils are a major constraint to mung bean cultivation and extension, and prohexadione-calcium (Pro-Ca) can enhance plant tolerance to saline-alkali stress.MethodsIn order to explore the regulatory effect and mechanism of Pro-Ca ...

Effects of thidiazuron and methyl jasmonate tank mixes on cotton defoliation and the underlying phytohormonal mechanisms

Journal of Cotton Research
Background Thidiazuron (TDZ) is a widely used chemical defoliant in commercial cotton production and is often combined with the herbicide Diuron to form the commercial defoliant mixture known as TDZ·Diuron (T·D, 540 g·L-1 suspension).

Early Impact of Childhood Opportunity on Neurocognitive Outcomes in Sickle Cell Disease

Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Introduction Neurocognitive impairment is a well‐recognized complication of sickle cell disease (SCD) that begins early in childhood and persists across development. While cerebrovascular injury contributes substantially to risk, neurocognitive deficits are also observed in children without overt or silent cerebral infarctions, suggesting ...

Analysis of differential expression of genes induced by ethephon in elongating internodes of maize plants [PDF]

Frontiers of Agricultural Science and Engineering, 2016
Plant growth regulators (PGRs) are commonly used in cereal cropping systems to restrict plant height and control lodging. Ethephon has been reported to shorten internodes and increase grain yield of maize.

Admixture Mapping Reveals Candidate Regions for Methotrexate Neurotoxicity Susceptibility: A Reducing Disparities in Acute Leukemia Consortium Report

Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Neurotoxicity is a rare, often dose‐limiting adverse effect of methotrexate (MTX) therapy that disproportionally affects Latino children. Factors contributing to the observed disparity are not well understood. This study leveraged admixture mapping to identify genetic regions associated with MTX‐related neurotoxicity susceptibility ...
