A Trp574–Leu substitution confers resistance to three classes of acetolactate synthase inhibitors in Australian brome grass (Bromus diandrus)

open access: yesPest Management Science, EarlyView.
Target‐site based imidazolinone resistance in brome grass was found to be conferred by a mutation at position 574 in the ALS gene and to severely impact the efficacy of the herbicide Intervix®, a co‐formulation of imazamox and imazapyr. Abstract BACKGROUND Brome grass (Bromus diandrus) is a prevalent weed in southern Australian cropping regions which ...

Repeated fractionation and umbel receptacle elongation explain the apparent “panicle with simple umbels” in Ferula species (Apiaceae)

open access: yesFrontiers in Ecology and Evolution
IntroductionThe carrot family (Apiaceae) is characterized by umbels with umbellets. Traditionally, these umbels are interpreted as inflorescences. Ontogenetic studies, however, indicate that they do not originate from inflorescence meristems but from ...

Soybean induced resistance to Spodoptera eridania herbivory

open access: yesPest Management Science, EarlyView.
SOD, CAT, APX, PPO, KTI, and MDA levels were higher in the resistant soybean. S. eridania herbivory increased H2O2 and MDA, but decreased SOD and PPO levels. S. eridania herbivory increased KTI activity only in the resistant variety. Isoquercitrin and daidzin were exclusive to resistant and susceptible soybeans.

Effects of elevated CO2 and temperature on cocklebur (Xanthium strumarium L.) and its herbicide response

open access: yesPest Management Science, EarlyView.
Elevated CO2 promotes the growth of Xanthium strumarium while increasing its susceptibility to the systemic herbicide trifloxysulfuron‐sodium. The efficacy of the soil‐active herbicide fluometuron remains unaffected by changes in CO2 concentration and temperature.

Reducing size to increase number: a hypothesis for compound leaves

open access: yesIdeas in Ecology and Evolution, 2012
Adaptive advantages of the compound leaf form in flowering plants have so far remained elusive.  A novel idea—proposed here—is that there are no direct advantages; the compound leaf evolved instead as a trade-off of selection in favour of something else:

CLAVATA Signaling Pathway Receptors of Arabidopsis Regulate Cell Proliferation in Fruit Organ Formation as well as in Meristems

open access: yesGenetics, 2011
The CLAVATA1 (CLV1), CLV2, and CORYNE (CRN) receptors in Arabidopsis thaliana maintain cell proliferation in shoot apical meristems by restricting expression of the transcription factor WUSCHEL (WUS).

Evaluation of a novel laser‐system operating at 1940 nm for weed control and determining the influence of biological and operational factors

open access: yesPest Management Science, EarlyView.
The control efficacy of a novel laser pulse system operating at 1940 nm was tested. The new system allows effective control of young weeds with 1.5 J. Targeting the plant stem is 53‐fold more energy‐efficient than the meristem. Species morphology and beam diameter significantly influence weed control efficacy. Abstract BACKGROUND This study evaluates a

Optimization of efficient virus-free regeneration system from shoot apical meristem of tea chrysanthemum

open access: yesXibei zhiwu xuebao
[Objective] In order to optimize the efficient virus elimination and regeneration system from shoot apical meristem of tea chrysanthemum, suitable heat treatment duration and detoxification agents, this study aims to improve the problem of low virus ...

The Arabidopsis SOC1-like genes AGL42, AGL71 and AGL72 promote flowering in the shoot apical and axillary meristems.

open access: yesThe Plant Journal, 2011
The floral transition is the switch from vegetative development to flowering. Proper timing of the floral transition is regulated by different pathways and is critical for the reproductive success of plants.

Cytogenotoxic Effects of Fluopyram in Allium cepa Root Cells Involving Microtubule Disruption

open access: yesEnvironmental Toxicology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Fluopyram is a next‐generation fungicide widely used in agriculture; however, its persistence in soils and mobility toward aquatic systems have raised concerns regarding potential ecotoxicological risks. This study evaluated the cytogenotoxic effects of a commercial fluopyram‐based pesticide formulation on Allium cepa root meristem cells ...
