OsPIN1a Gene Participates in Regulating Negative Phototropism of Rice Roots
Abstract The complete open reading frame of OsPIN1a was amplified through reverse transcriptasepolymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) based on the sequence deposited in GenBank to explore the relationship between the auxin efflux protein OsPIN1a and the negative phototropism of rice roots.

Discussion on Photoreceptor for Negative Phototropism in Rice Roots
To properly explore the photoreceptor for the negative phototropism in rice (Oryza sativa L.) root, lights with different wavelengths were applied to investigate the effect of light quality on phototropic bending. The phototropic bending could be induced prominently by blue/ultraviolet light, whereas not by red or far-red light. The absorption spectrum

Can Mimosa pudica Plants Enumerate Light Exposure Events? [PDF]
Abstract Plants sense and respond to information present in their surrounding environment. Recent work has sought to characterize the limits of these information processing abilities. Here, we present evidence that the movements of Mimosa pudica plants are mediated by the number of illumination events to which they have been exposed.

Calcium Signaling is Involved in Negative Phototropism of Rice Seminal Roots
Calcium ions (Ca2+) act as an intracellular second messenger and affect nearly all aspects of cellular life. They are functioned by interacting with polar auxin transport, and the negative phototropism of plant roots is caused by the transport of auxin from the irradiated side to the shaded side of the roots. To clarify the role of calcium signaling in

PINOID functions in root phototropism as a negative regulator [PDF]
The PINOID (PID) family, which belongs to AGCVIII kinases, is known to be involved in the regulation of auxin efflux transporter PIN-formed (PIN) proteins through changes in the phosphorylation status. Recently, we demonstrated that the PID family is necessary for phytochrome-mediated phototropic enhancement in Arabidopsis hypocotyls and that the ...

Modelling torus behaviour in a fish farming cage
Since it is not usually possible to observe all of the fish in a school, it is difficult to monitor farmed fish in a crowded cage with the aim of scrutinising their condition. One possible solution to this problem is the use of simulations.

Interplay between the Reactions to Light and to Gravity in Phycomyces [PDF]
Sporangiophores of Phycomyces do not grow directly towards a horizontal beam of light, but equilibrate at an angle of about 30° above the horizontal. After describing several related observations, this paper suggests that the dioptric properties of an ...

Phytochrome A mediates blue-light enhancement of second-positive phototropism in Arabidopsis [PDF]
Hypocotyl phototropism of etiolated Arabidopsis seedlings is primarily mediated by the blue-light receptor kinase phototropin 1 (phot1). Phot1-mediated curvature to continuous unilateral blue light irradiation (0.5 µmol m-2 s-1) is enhanced by overhead ...
