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

Plant 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.

Frontiers 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 ...

Expression of a Bacterial Ice Nucleation Gene in Plants [PDF]
Plant Physiology, 1992 We have introduced an ice nucleation gene (inaZ) from Pseudomonas syringae pv. syringae into Nicotiana tabacum, a freezing-sensitive species, and Solanum commersonii, a freezing-tolerant species. Transformants of both species showed increased ice nucleation activity over untransformed controls.

Coastal permafrost landscape development since the Late Pleistocene in the western Laptev Sea, Siberia [PDF]
, 2011 The palaeoenvironmental development of the western Laptev Sea is understood primarily from investigations of exposed cliffs and surface sediment cores from the shelf.

Biologia Plantarum, 2018 We compared C3 and CAM (crassulacean acid metabolism) states in Mesembryanthemum crystallinum, a facultative CAM species, with respect to the involvement of phosphoenolpyruvate carboxylase (PEPC) and nitrogen metabolismrelated enzymes in plant response ...

Factors Affecting Ice Nucleation in Plant Tissues [PDF]
Plant 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.

Micromachines, 2023 Advancements in detection instruments have enabled the real-time acquisition of water information during plant growth; however, the real-time monitoring of freeze–thaw information during plant overwintering remains a challenge.

Growth and salt accumulation capacity of the common ice plant in the tsunami-affected soil
Plant Production Science, 2022 Halophytes are salt-tolerant plant that grows naturally in saline areas where almost all conventional crops die due to NaCl toxicity. The common ice plant, Mesembryanthemum crystallinum L., an annual halophyte native to South Africa, tolerates high ...

Crystals of Ice on Plants [PDF]
Botanical 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 ...
