Can meristematic activity determine variation in leaf size and elongation rate among four Poa species?: a kinematic study [PDF]
, 2000 We studied inherent variation in final leaf size among four Poa spp. that live at different elevations. The average final length of leaf 7 of the main stem of the smallest species (Poa alpina) was only one-half that of the largest species (Poa trivialis);

A Conserved DT2‐bZIP66‐NF‐YC4 Regulatory Module Confers Drought Tolerance in Rice and Arabidopsis
Advanced Science, EarlyView.This study identifies a conserved tripartiteDT2–bZIP66–NF‐YC4 transcriptional module that enhances rice drought tolerance by activating stress‐responsive genes. This regulatory complex is functionally conserved across cereals and Arabidopsis, providing promising targets for engineering drought‐resilient crops. ABSTRACT Drought stress severely restricts

Differential expression of XET‐related genes in the leaf elongation zone of F. pratensis [PDF]
, 2017 Festuca pratensis Huds. is a forage grass with the ability to withstand harsh climatic conditions. However, its potential agronomic use is limited by its poor competitive ability, which can be traced to limitations in leaf growth.

Decreased reactive oxygen species concentration in the elongation zone contributes to the reduction in maize leaf growth under salinity [PDF]
, 2004 Reactive oxygen species (ROS) in the apoplast of cells in the growing zone of grass leaves are required for elongation growth. This work evaluates whether salinity‐induced reductions in leaf elongation are related to altered ROS production.

FUNCTION OF HYDRAULIC AND CHEMICAL WATER STRESS SIGNALIZATION IN EVALUATION OF DROUGHT RESISTANCE OF JUVENILE PLANTS [PDF]
Journal of Central European Agriculture, 2002 In laboratory hydroponic experiments with spring barley genotypes the juvenile plants with 5 leaves were tested for their physiological responses to osmotic stress evoked by blocking the water uptake in roots by polyethylenglycol (PEG-6000) and to ...

The effects of elevated carbon dioxide concentration on leaf growth and development in Populus
, 2008 The composition of the Earth’s atmosphere is changing. Such changes can largely beattributed either directly or indirectly to anthropogenic activities. However, the effectsthat these changes will have on terrestrial vegetation in the future, represents ...

Advanced Science, EarlyView.This study uncovers a metabolic‐epigenetic axis licensing zygotic genome activation (ZGA) in mouse embryos. A developmental decline in NAD+ levels activates PARP7, which mono‐ADP‐ribosylates and stabilizes UHRF1. This modification promotes the establishment of permissive histone acetylation marks, thereby facilitating timely ZGA.
