PHELLOGEN ACTIVITY IN ROBINIA PSEUDACACIA L. [PDF]
New Phytologist, 1967 SummaryPhellogen activity in Robinia pseudacacia and some of the factors controlling it were investigated. A highly active phellogen is characterized by the production of large thin‐walled phellem cells. A layer of flat, thick‐walled phellem cells next to the phellogen characterizes an inactive meristem.

Austral Entomology, Volume 62, Issue 4, Page 449-463, November 2023., 2023 Abstract Larval feeding by the moth genus Ogmograptis (Bucculatricidae: Lepidoptera) creates one of the most iconic features of the Australian bush—the ‘scribbles’ found on smooth‐barked Eucalyptus. The taxonomic history of Ogmograptis has been challenging, with members of the genus being initially described in four different genera representing three ...

Biological Flora of Britain and Ireland: Viscum album
Journal of Ecology, Volume 111, Issue 3, Page 701-739, March 2023., 2023 Mistletoe is a charismatic parasite of tree crowns with a long history of folklore and connections with Christmas celebrations. This, and its need for light, helps explain why it is most common in human‐made habitats across Europe. Once thought to benignly take just water and nutrients from its host it is now known to take carbon as well which can lead

TheSHORT-ROOT-like genePtSHR2Bis involved inPopulusphellogen activity [PDF]
Journal of Experimental Botany, 2015 SHORT-ROOT (SHR) is a GRAS transcription factor first characterized for its role in the specification of the stem cell niche and radial patterning in Arabidopsis thaliana (At) roots. Three SHR-like genes have been identified in Populus trichocarpa (Pt). PtSHR1 shares high similarity with AtSHR over the entire length of the coding sequence.

Genome‐wide identification, phylogeny, and gene duplication of the epigenetic regulators in Fagaceae
Physiologia Plantarum, Volume 174, Issue 5, September/October 2022., 2022 Abstract Epigenetic regulators are proteins involved in controlling gene expression. Information about the epigenetic regulators within the Fagaceae, a relevant family of trees and shrubs of the northern hemisphere ecosystems, is scarce. With the intent to characterize these proteins in Fagaceae, we searched for orthologs of DNA methyltransferases ...

Pest Management Science, Volume 78, Issue 8, Page 3534-3539, August 2022., 2022 The study confirms the role of Platypus cylindrus as carrier of the emerging pathogen Diplodia corticola in European cork oak forests using a highly specific molecular marker. Abstract BACKGROUND Botryosphaeria canker (causal agent: Diplodia corticola) is considered one of the most important diseases of cork oak (Quercus suber) stands since it ...

What do we know about growth of vessel elements of secondary xylem in woody plants?
Biological Reviews, Volume 96, Issue 6, Page 2911-2924, December 2021., 2021 ABSTRACT Despite extensive knowledge about vessel element growth and the determination of the axial course of vessels, these processes are still not fully understood. They are usually explained as resulting primarily from hormonal regulation in stems.

Improved plant bioconcentration modeling of pesticides: The role of periderm dynamics
Pest Management Science, Volume 77, Issue 11, Page 5096-5108, November 2021., 2021 A novel approach is presented, considering the periderm as an active barrier for pesticide uptake into plants to optimize pest control and minimize human exposure to pesticide residues in tuber crops. © 2021 The Authors.

Genetic resistance and tumour morphology in birch infected with Taphrina betulina
Forest Pathology, Volume 51, Issue 4, August 2021., 2021 Abstract Witches’ broom of birch (Betula spp.) caused by Taphrina betulina is an understudied disease that causes the formation of woody tumours, from which ectopic axillary buds and branches grow to form a broom‐like structure. We have addressed two aspects of this disease using naturally infected mature trees in the field.
