Effects of Long-Term High Temperatures in the Root Zone on the Physiological Characteristics of Grapevine Leaves and Roots: Implications for Viticulture Practices

Horticulturae
Ridging cultivation and root restriction cultivation are beneficial due to their improvement of the soil permeability in the root zone of grapevine, and they are widely used in southern China, Japan, and other countries. However, with the intensification

Evolution of the fruit endocarp: molecular mechanisms underlying adaptations in seed protection and dispersal strategies.

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2014
Plant evolution is largely driven by adaptations in seed protection and dispersal strategies that allow diversification into new niches. This is evident by the tremendous variation in flowering and fruiting structures present both across and within ...

Multivariate trait profiling and genetic diversity in a global foxtail millet germplasm panel

Plant Biology, Volume 28, Issue 4, Page 1077-1088, June 2026.
Four elite foxtail millet groups discovered from 260 accessions: perfect for breeding climate‐resilient, high‐yielding dual‐purpose crops. Abstract Foxtail millet (Setaria italica L.), known for its climate resilience and dual‐purpose utility, is underutilized in breeding programs despite its agricultural potential.

Microscopic distribution of syringin in freeze‐fixed Syringa vulgaris stems

Plant Direct, 2019
Monolignols are precursors of lignin, and their glucosides are often found in plants. Glucosylation creates water‐soluble and chemically stable monolignols by protecting the phenolic hydroxyl group.

Hydrogen peroxide generation and lignification by peroxidases from Acacia eburneainfected with Ravenelia esculenta

Plant, Soil and Environment, 2010
Ravenelia esculenta Naras. and Thirum. is a rust fungus which infects Acacia eburnea Willd. producing hypertrophy in the infected organs. We analysed the changes in the reaction patterns of peroxidase from the tissues at progressive disease stages ...

Induced defence by a root hemiparasite increases host plant resistance against future infection

Plant Biology, Volume 28, Issue 4, Page 1279-1288, June 2026.
Infection by root hemiparasites can increase mortality of parasites during future infection, indicating induced host defence mechanisms. Abstract European grassland plants are frequently attacked by root hemiparasites. However, little is known about host defence responses to parasitism.

Activities of amine oxidase, peroxidase and catalase in seedlings of Pisum sativum L. under different light conditions

Plant, Soil and Environment, 2003
The activities of amine oxidase, peroxidase and catalase were studied in 12 cultivars of field pea (Pisum sativum L.) and one accession of wild pea (Pisum sativum subsp. transcaucasicum).

Promoting Corn Stover Degradation via Sequential Processing of Steam Explosion and Lactic Acid Bacteria‐Assisted Ensilage

Food and Energy Security, Volume 15, Issue 3, May/June 2026.
ABSTRACT Efficient utilization of corn stover is essential for enhancing the sustainability of livestock feed. However, its high lignocellulose content limits digestibility and nutritional value. Steam explosion technology, an emerging pretreatment method, has shown promise in food processing for its ability to break down the natural structural ...

Micronutrients for cacao: Availability classes in two soil layers

Soil Science Society of America Journal, Volume 90, Issue 3, May/June 2026.
Abstract Efficient management of soil micronutrients is crucial for the yield and sustainability of cacao (Theobroma cacao L.), especially in tropical regions. However, specific availability classes for copper (Cu), iron (Fe), manganese (Mn), and zinc (Zn), extracted by Mehlich‐1, had not yet been established for the crop in Brazil. This study presents,

Cooperative lignification of xylem tracheary elements.

Plant signaling & behavior, 2015
The development of xylem tracheary elements (TEs)--the hydro-mineral sap conducting cells--has been an evolutionary breakthrough to enable long distance nutrition and upright growth of vascular land plants. To allow sap conduction, TEs form hollow laterally reinforced cylinders by combining programmed cell death and secondary cell wall formation.
