Comparison of the Leaf Shape in 2 Reynoutria Species by Quantification of Leaf-base Shape [PDF]
The purpose of this report is to quantify leaf-base shapes for the field survey of plants. We analyzed the property of cardioid (limacon) curve, r=(1-k) + k cos (sita), and confirmed that the coefficient k was able to express the leaf-base shapes ...

Genetic Mapping for Leaf Shape and Leaf Size in Non-Heading Chinese Cabbage by a RIL Population
Leaves are the predominant photosynthetic and edible organs in non-heading Chinese cabbage (Brassica campestris ssp. chinensis, NHCC), contributing significantly to yield, appearance, and desirability to consumers.

NARROW LEAF 7 controls leaf shape mediated by auxin in rice [PDF]
Elucidation of the genetic basis of the control of leaf shape could be of use in the manipulation of crop traits, leading to more stable and increased crop production. To improve our understanding of the process controlling leaf shape, we identified a mutant gene in rice that causes a significant decrease in the width of the leaf blade, termed narrow ...

The brown marmorated stink bug, Halyomorpha halys, mainly secretes 4‐oxo‐(E)‐2‐hexenal, (E)‐2‐decenal, dodecane and tridecane, a mixture representative of that released by many heteropterans. We demonstrated that H. halys can synthesise these secretory components de novo using dietary glucose.

Effects of Leaf Shape of Foliage Plants on Human Psychophysiological Responses
Visual characteristics of foliage plants are increasingly recognized as important factors influencing human psychological and physiological responses; however, empirical evidence regarding the effects of specific leaf shapes remains limited.

Protocol for quantifying miRNA trafficking across the endosomal membrane
An in vitro protocol measures miRNA uptake into endosomes isolated from mammalian cell extracts, which are free of subcellular contaminants. Performed at 37 °C in the presence of ATP, it ensures the import of single‐stranded miRNA into the endosomal lumen.

In vitro generation of regulatory T cells: A challenging tool for studying immune aging in humans
In vitro induction of human regulatory T cells using standard protocols generates suppressive, Foxp3‐expressing CD4+ T cells independently of TGF‐β supplementation and donor age. Regulatory T (Treg) cells play a key role in immune tolerance and homeostasis.
