Ecotoxicological Evaluation of Organic Sunscreens Used Worldwide, Alone and in Mixture, on Terrestrial Plants

Environmental Toxicology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The environmental hazards of sunscreens are discussed worldwide. However, there are few ecotoxicological studies on these compounds alone for edaphic organisms, and none for their mixtures. Avobenzone (1 and 10 ng/L), octocrylene (10 and 100 μg/L), and oxybenzone (2 and 20 μg/L), alone and in binary combinations (between the lowest and the ...

Cell type boundaries organize plant development

eLife, 2017
In plants the dorsoventral boundary of leaves defines an axis of symmetry through the centre of the organ separating the top (dorsal) and bottom (ventral) tissues.

The Effects of Cytokinin on the Transcriptional Regulation of PIN Expression in Arabidopsis thaliana [PDF]

, 2012
The processes of cell division and differentiation are critical to the development of any multicellular organism. During the formation of plant roots these processes take place at a region of the root tip called the meristem.

Internal physiological drivers of leaf development in trees: Understanding the relationship between non‐structural carbohydrates and leaf phenology

Functional Ecology, EarlyView.
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Plant phenology is crucial for understanding plant growth and climate feedback. It affects canopy structure, surface albedo, and carbon and water fluxes. While the influence of environmental factors on phenology is well‐documented, the role of plant intrinsic factors ...

From A. rhizogenes RolD to Plant P5CS: Exploiting Proline to Control Plant Development [PDF]

, 2018
The capability of the soil bacterium Agrobacterium rhizogenes to reprogram plant development and induce adventitious hairy roots relies on the expression of a few root-inducing genes (rol A, B, C and D), which can be transferred from large virulence ...

The performance of growing degree day models to predict spring phenology of herbaceous species depends on the species' temporal niche

Functional Ecology, EarlyView.
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract The concept of growing degree days (GDDs) is commonly used to predict phenological events in plants, assuming that plants develop proportionally to the accumulated temperature. Two species‐specific parameters, TBase and t0 (minimum temperature above which and start date

Immunolocalization of dually phosphorylated MAPKs in dividing root meristem cells of Vicia faba, Pisum sativum, Lupinus luteus and Lycopersicon esculentum [PDF]

, 2015
Key message In plants, phosphorylated MAPKs display constitutive nuclear localization; however, not all studied plant species show co-localization of activated MAPKs to mitotic microtubules.

Below the leaves: Integrating above‐ and below‐ground phenology for earth‐system predictability

Functional Ecology, EarlyView.
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Almost every aspect of biological systems has phenology—a pattern in activity or function linked to annual cycles. Most terrestrial phenology research focusses on leaves, the onset of leaf out or senescence.

The CLV-WUS Stem Cell Signaling Pathway: A Roadmap to Crop Yield Optimization

Plants, 2018
The shoot apical meristem at the growing shoot tip acts a stem cell reservoir that provides cells to generate the entire above-ground architecture of higher plants. Many agronomic plant yield traits such as tiller number, flower number, fruit number, and
