Interaction Between Actin and Microtubules During Plant Development

open access: yesCytoskeleton, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The dynamic interaction between actin filaments (AFs) and microtubules (MTs) plays a crucial role in regulating key developmental and physiological processes in plant cells, particularly in the formation of specialized cell types with distinct shapes and functions, such as pollen tubes, trichomes, and leaf epidermal cells.

The complete sequence of the mitochondrial genome of Butomus umbellatus--a member of an early branching lineage of monocotyledons. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2013
In order to study the evolution of mitochondrial genomes in the early branching lineages of the monocotyledons, i.e., the Acorales and Alismatales, we are sequencing complete genomes from a suite of key taxa.

Nuclear Entanglement: New Insights Into the Role of Cytoskeleton and Nucleoskeleton in Plant Nuclear Function

open access: yesCytoskeleton, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Of the three types of cytoskeleton known in animals—actin, microtubules, and intermediate filaments—only actin and microtubules exist in plants. Both play important roles in cellular shaping, organelle movement, organization of the endomembrane system, and cell signaling.

Life Cycle Analysis as a Sustainable Governance Lever for Environmental Performance: Evidence From French SBF 120 Companies

open access: yesCorporate Social Responsibility and Environmental Management, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This study draws on neo‐institutional theory, stakeholder theory, and the resource‐based view to examine the relationship between the use of Life Cycle Analysis (LCA) and firms' Environmental Performance (EP). Focusing on French companies listed on the SBF 120 index from 2002 to 2021, it investigates how LCA adoption influences EP across three

Fire responses of bushland plants after the January 1994 wildfires in northern Sydney [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
In early January 1994 wildfires burned areas of bushland in northern Sydney (lat 33° 45’ S, long 151° 05’ E) in coastal south-eastern Australia. This paper reports observations of the fire responses for 828 species of bushland plants – 576 native species

Buck Wheat: Nutritional, Bioactive Characteristics, Health Benefits, and Side Effects

open access: yesFuture Postharvest and Food, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Micronutrient deficits have resulted from an over‐reliance on a small number of cereal crops for food security. The agricultural sector faces severe sustainability issues due to the rapid growth of the world's population and sudden climatic changes.

Progress of cereal transformation technology mediated by Agrobacterium tumefaciens

open access: yesFrontiers in Plant Science, 2014
Monocotyledonous plants were believed to be not transformable by the soil bacterium Agrobacterium tumefaciens until two decades ago, although convenient protocols for infection of leaf disks and subsequent regeneration of transgenic plants had been well ...
