Mitochondrial activity and biogenesis during resurrection of Haberlea rhodopensis
New Phytologist, Volume 236, Issue 3, Page 943-957, November 2022., 2022 Summary Haberlea rhodopensis is a resurrection plant that can tolerate extreme and prolonged periods of desiccation with a rapid restoration of physiological function upon rehydration. Specialized mechanisms are required to minimize cellular damage during desiccation and to maintain integrity for rapid recovery following rehydration.

Protection mechanisms against excess light in Myrothamnus flabellifolius (Welw.) [PDF]
, 2023 The effects of light stress during drying on excised twigs of the homoiochlorophyllous resurrection plant Myrothamnus flabellifoius, was examined in this study. Leaves were prevented from folding during drying and plants were dried in the light, and as a

The trehalose 6‐phosphate pathway impacts vegetative phase change in Arabidopsis thaliana
The Plant Journal, Volume 104, Issue 3, Page 768-780, November 2020., 2020 Summary The vegetative phase change marks the beginning of the adult phase in the life cycle of plants and is associated with a gradual decline in the microRNA miR156, in response to sucrose status. Trehalose 6‐phosphate (T6P) is a sugar molecule with signaling function reporting the current sucrose state.

The Scientific World Journal, Volume 2020, Issue 1, 2020., 2020 An analysis of land cover changes (LCCs) was done in Image Forest Reserve (IFR) from August to October 2019. Free satellite images for 1990, 2004, and 2018 were downloaded from Landsat 5 (TM) and Landsat 8 (OLI) available through the USGS portal. Ground surveys were conducted using systematically set plots of 20 m × 40 m to identify the existing land ...

The complex cell wall composition of syncytia induced by plant parasitic cyst nematodes reflects both function and host plant [PDF]
, 2017 Plant–parasitic cyst nematodes induce the formation of specialised feeding structures, syncytia, within their host roots. These unique plant organs serve as the sole nutrient resource for development and reproduction throughout the biotrophic interaction.
