Antioxidant Properties of a Supercritical Fluid Extract of the Halophyte Mesembryanthemum nodiflorum L. from Sicilian Coasts: Nutraceutical and Cosmeceutical Applications

open access: yesApplied Sciences, 2020
The aim of this paper was to obtain different extracts from the aerial parts of Mesembryanthemum nodiflorum, comparing traditional extraction (using solvents with increasing polarity such as hexane, ethanol 80%, acetone 70% and water) with an eco ...

Transcriptome analysis shows that alkalinity affects metabolism in the roots of Mesembryanthemum crystallinum

open access: yesBiologia Plantarum, 2023
Mesembryanthemum crystallinum is a model halophyte that switches from C3 photosynthesis to Crassulacean acid metabolism (CAM) upon extreme abiotic stresses.

Complex plant-derived organic aerosol as ice-nucleating particles – more than the sums of their parts? [PDF]

open access: yesAtmospheric Chemistry and Physics, 2020
Quantifying the impact of complex organic particles on the formation of ice crystals in clouds remains challenging, mostly due to the vast number of different sources ranging from sea spray to agricultural areas.

Crystals of Ice on Plants [PDF]

open access: yesBotanical Gazette, 1894
The cold causes a contraction of the tissues all over the plant, and consequently the turgescence is very much diminished, as well as the permeability of the cell-walls to water. As the contents of the peripheral ends of the medullary rays freeze, expand, and are pressed forward, the stem splits in the place where it affords the least resistance, and ...

Evaluating the Potential of Using Plant-Based Milk Substitutes in Ice Cream Production

open access: yesBiology and Life Sciences Forum, 2023
In recent years, the different dietary needs of consumers due to their health problems, such as food allergies and lactose intolerance, or lifestyle changes, well-being trends, and increasing awareness about environmental concerns, causes an increment in

Ice accommodation in plant tissues pinpointed by cryo-microscopy in reflected-polarised-light

open access: yesPlant Methods, 2020
Background Freezing resistant plant organs are capable to manage ice formation, ice propagation, and ice accommodation down to variable temperature limits without damage.

Mixed cropping with ice plant alleviates the damage and the growth of cowpea under consecutive NaCl treatment and after the recovery from high salinity

open access: yesPlant Production Science, 2017
We investigated the alleviative effects of mixed cropping using ice plant, which is one of the salt-accumulating halophytes, on the damage and growth inhibition of cowpea, which is not tolerant to high salinity.

Laying the Foundation for Crassulacean Acid Metabolism (CAM) Biodesign: Expression of the C4 Metabolism Cycle Genes of CAM in Arabidopsis

open access: yesFrontiers in Plant Science, 2019
Crassulacean acid metabolism (CAM) is a specialized mode of photosynthesis that exploits a temporal CO2 pump with nocturnal CO2 uptake and concentration to reduce photorespiration, improve water-use efficiency (WUE), and optimize the adaptability of ...

Ice Nucleation and Freezing Consequences in Perennial Plants. [PDF]

open access: yesPhysiol Plant
ABSTRACT The precise location where ice forms in plants affects the physical constraint it exerts on the different biological compartments (cells, tissues, organs). It is therefore critical to understand where and how ice nucleates to predict the extent of low temperature damage.

Factors Affecting Ice Nucleation in Plant Tissues [PDF]

open access: yesPlant Physiology, 1985
Factors affecting the ice nucleation temperature of plants and plant tissues were examined. The mass of a sample had a marked effect on ice nucleation temperature. Small tissue samples supercooled to -10 degrees C and were not accurate predictors of the nucleation temperature of intact plants in either laboratory or field experiments.
