Vegetation-derived abscisic acid and four terpenes enforce dormancy in seeds of the post-fire annual, Nicotiana attenuata

open access: yes, 2002
The native tobacco, Nicotiana attenuata, synchronizes its germination with the immediate post-fire environment with a combination of germination stimulants found in wood smoke and inhibitors from the unburned litter of the dominant vegetation.

Antimicrobial peptide expression in a wild tobacco plant reveals the limits of host-microbe-manipulations in the field

open access: yeseLife, 2018
Plant-microbe associations are thought to be beneficial for plant growth and resistance against biotic or abiotic stresses, but for natural ecosystems, the ecological analysis of microbiome function remains in its infancy.

Gene expression of 5-epi-aristolochene synthase and formation of capsidiol in roots of Nicotiana attenuata and N-sylvestris

open access: yes, 2002
Three new copies of a sesquiterpenoid synthase gene encoding 5- epi-aristolochene synthase (EAS) were cloned as cDNAs from Nicotiana attenuata and functionally characterized after expression of the recombinant enzymes in E. coli. Differential patterns

Herbivore-induced allene oxide synthase transcripts and jasmonic acid in Nicotiana attenuata

open access: yes, 2001
Exogenous jasmonate treatment of Nicotiana attenuata Torr. ex Wats. plants elicits durable resistance against herbivores and attack from its specialist herbivore, Manduca sexta, results in an amplification of the transient wound-induced increase in ...

Silencing threonine deaminase and JAR4 in Nicotiana attenuata impairs jasmonic acid-isoleucine-mediated defenses against Manduca sexta

open access: yes, 2006
Threonine deaminase (TD) catalyzes the conversion of Thr to alpha-keto butyrate in Ile biosynthesis; however, its dramatic upregulation in leaves after herbivore attack suggests a role in defense.

Fitness consequences of altering floral circadian oscillations for Nicotiana attenuata

open access: yes, 2018
Ecological interactions between flowers and pollinators are all about timing. Flower opening/closing and scent emissions are largely synchronized with pollinator activity, and a circadian clock regulates these rhythms.

STEM CELL GROWTH AND DIFFERENTIATION IN HYDRA ATTENUATA [PDF]

open access: yes, 1979
The differentiation of nerve cells and nematocytes from interstitial stem cells in Hydra has been investigated under conditions of changing stem cell density.
