Coronatine-Induced Maize Defense against Gibberella Stalk Rot by Activating Antioxidants and Phytohormone Signaling

Journal of Fungi, 2023
One of the most destructive diseases, Gibberella stalk rot (GSR), caused by Fusarium graminearum, reduces maize yields significantly. An induced resistance response is a potent and cost-effective plant defense against pathogen attack.

Giving maize an excited start – Effects of dopamine on maize germination

Journal of Integrative Agriculture, 2020
Dopamine (DA) is a neurotransmitter which takes charge of brain activities about memory and self-stimulation behavior in animals. Interestingly, our results suggest that DA could also give maize an “excited state”.

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 Body Mass Index z‐Score Change and Resolution of Severe Malnutrition in Children With Sickle Cell Anemia in a Low‐Income Setting: A Prospective Single‐Arm Extension Study

Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Children with sickle cell anemia (SCA) in low‐income settings are at risk of severe malnutrition, but optimal nutritional management has not been established. We evaluated an intensified ready‐to‐use therapeutic food (RUTF) regimen in children with persistent severe malnutrition after initial treatment and assessed whether early ...

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.
