Effect of Different Strenght of Medium on Germination and Seedling Growth of Tomato and Sucrose Effect on Biomass of Tomato Callus

Jurnal Biota, 2020
Bioactive compounds of plant cell culture extracts are currently being looked at for its potential for the development of nutraceutical products. Tomato callus is known to have cytoprotective activity.

CryoFluorSEM – A new approach for fluorescence and EM imaging of cryofractured plant samples

Journal of Microscopy, EarlyView.
Abstract Cryo‐scanning electron microscopy (CryoSEM) permits the preparation and detailed imaging of bulky samples while keeping them in a hydrated state. For plant biology, cryofractures give information on cell ultrastructure and tissue organisation within a much larger context that is the whole organ or organism.

Effects of cadmium, copper, and zinc on germination and post-germination growth of chia seeds [PDF]

Journal of Central European Agriculture
In recent years, concerns regarding environmental pollution and its impact on agricultural production have intensified due to the ongoing dispersal of heavy metals. This study investigated the ecotoxicological effects of three heavy metals (cadmium (Cd),

Proprioception drives tension wood formation for autotropic straightening and postural control in trees

New Phytologist, EarlyView.
Proprioception controls trunk straightness in trees through opposite tension wood formation. A spherical growth chamber (a), combined with a two‐dimensional rotating clinostat (b2), suppresses gravi‐ and phototropic sensing. The tree is first tilted horizontally (b1), triggering upward gravitropic bending, actuated by tension wood formation on the ...

A C‐repeat binding factor–salicylic acid (CBF–SA) module links wound‐induced evaporative cooling to tissue repair in plants

New Phytologist, EarlyView.
A model of the C‐repeat binding factor–salicylic acid (CBF–SA) module in plant wound healing. Summary Repairing damaged tissues is essential for the survival of all organisms. In plants, tissue injury rapidly triggers defense and repair programs. However, the molecular mechanisms linking early injury cues to the later stage of wound repair remain ...

Natural Variation in GmSL20 Improves Seed Size and Quality in Soybean

Plant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Seed size plays an important role in determining crop yield, yet the genetic mechanisms underlying the regulation of this agronomic trait remain incompletely understood in soybean. Here, we perform a genome‐wide association study mapping with seed length variations and identify a major quantitative trait locus (QTL) on chromosome 20, named ...

Single‐Cell Transcriptomics Reveals the FA9–VAP Module Regulating Fatty Acid Accumulation in Soybean Seeds

Plant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT As a major commercial legume crop, soybean ranks among the world's most significant sources of edible oil and plant protein. We previously identified a SEIPIN homologue (FA9) at the fatty acid 9 locus that promotes fatty acid accumulation in soybean.
