The effect of insect herbivory on the growth and fitness of introduced Verbascum thapsus L. [PDF]
, 2013 A majority of the plant species that are introduced into new ranges either do not become established, or become naturalized yet do not attain high densities and are thus considered ecologically and economically unproblematic. The factors that limit these

The Physiological Basis of Alfalfa Plant Height Establishment
PlantsPlant height plays an important role in crop yield, product quality, and cultivation management. However, the physiological mechanisms that regulate the establishment of plant height in alfalfa plants remain unclear. Herein, we measured plant height traits, leaf characteristics, photosynthetic physiology, cell wall composition, and endogenous hormone ...

Effect of reduced plant height on drought tolerance in rice [PDF]
3 Biotech, 2016 Drought stress due to water deficit is a major problem of rice cultivation as a most drought-sensitive crop plant. A rice mutant line (MT58) was developed after mutagenesis of cv. Neda by ethyl methane sulfonate (EMS) and selected for dwarfism (18 cm shorter than Neda).
