Effect of ZnO and CuO nanoparticles on the growth, nutrient absorption, and potential health risk of the seasonal vegetable Medicago polymorpha L. [PDF]
Background Medicago polymorpha L., a seasonal vegetable, is commonly grown in China. The increasing use of nanoparticles (NPs) such as ZnO and CuO NPs in agriculture has raised concerns about their potential risks for plant growth and for human ...

The nitric oxide response in plant-associated endosymbiotic bacteria [PDF]
Nitric oxide (NO) is a gaseous signalling molecule which becomes very toxic due to its ability to react with multiple cellular targets in biological systems. Bacterial cells protect against NO through the expression of enzymes that detoxify this molecule

Complete sequencing of the chloroplast genomes of two Medicago species
In this study, we aimed to determine the complete nucleotide sequences of the chloroplast genomes of Medicago sativa L. and Medicago falcata L. and perform their phylogenomic analysis. The chloroplast genomes of M. Sativa and M.

Synteny analysis in Rosids with a walnut physical map reveals slow genome evolution in long-lived woody perennials. [PDF]
BackgroundMutations often accompany DNA replication. Since there may be fewer cell cycles per year in the germlines of long-lived than short-lived angiosperms, the genomes of long-lived angiosperms may be diverging more slowly than those of short-lived ...

INTRODUCTIVE RESOURCES OF MEDICAGO AND PERSPECTIVES OF THEIR APPLICATION IN MOUNTAINOUS CONDITIONS
As a result of introductive tests of perennial Medicago species, interspecific differences in a set of traits were revealed. It was found that with the increase of the height above sea level the number of shoots on individual plant increases, while ...

A Model for the Development of the Rhizobial and Arbuscular Mycorrhizal Symbioses in Legumes and Its Use to Understand the Roles of Ethylene in the Establishment of these two Symbioses [PDF]
We propose a model depicting the development of nodulation and arbuscular mycorrhizae. Both processes are dissected into many steps, using Pisum sativum L. nodulation mutants as a guideline. For nodulation, we distinguish two main developmental programs,

Emerging connections between small RNAs and phytohormones [PDF]
Small RNAs (sRNAs), mainly including miRNAs and siRNAs, are ubiquitous in eukaryotes. sRNAs mostly negatively regulate gene expression via (post-)transcriptional gene silencing through DNA methylation, mRNA cleavage, or translation inhibition.
