Reducing costs, improving profits: A low-cost culture media for woody plants micropropagation
Journal of Forest Science, 2023 Micropropagation has enormous potential in the forestry industry for the mass production of elite genotypes. A limiting factor that hinders a wider adoption of this technique is its high associated cost, dissuading small producers and laboratories from ...

Season over plant sex: drivers of leaf damage and plant defence in a dioecious Mediterranean shrub. [PDF]
Plant Biol (Stuttg)Considering both seasons revealed higher late‐season herbivory in males than in females of Pistacia lentiscus, while overall herbivory increased and traits varied seasonally. Abstract In dioecious plants, females often prioritize reproduction over growth, potentially investing more in defence, while males grow faster but allocate fewer resources to ...

Plant Development and Crop Yield: The Role of Gibberellins
Plants, 2022 Gibberellins have been classically related to a few key developmental processes, thus being essential for the accurate unfolding of plant genetic programs. After more than a century of research, over one hundred different gibberellins have been described.

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2021 Limited attention has been paid to maize (Zea mays L.) resistance induced by corn borer damage, although evidence shows that induced defenses have lower resource allocation costs than constitutive defenses. Maize responses to short- and long-term feeding

Genome-wide association analysis for fumonisin content in maize kernels
BMC Plant Biology, 2019 Background Plant breeding has been proposed as one of the most effective and environmentally safe methods to control fungal infection and to reduce fumonisin accumulation. However, conventional breeding can be hampered by the complex genetic architecture
