Recurrent deficit irrigation and fruit harvest affect tree water relations and fruitlet growth in ‘Valencia’ orange [PDF]
, 2019 Background. Partial rootzone drying is an irrigation strategy known for increasing water use efficiency without significantly affecting tree water status.

Current Opinion in Plant Biology, 2018 The complex form of higher plants requires continuous, balanced transport of nutrients in the phloem. The initial step of transferring sugars, amino acids, and other materials from photosynthetic cells to the conducting sieve tubes is known as phloem loading. Three phloem loading mechanisms have been described.

Mandible composition and properties in two selected praying mantises (Insecta, Mantodea)
The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.Abstract Insects process their food with their cuticle‐based mouthparts. These feeding structures reflect their diversity and can, in some cases, showcase adaptations in material composition, mechanical properties, and shape to suit their specific dietary preferences.

Identification of pathogenicity factors in the xylem-invading pathogen Xanthomonas albilineans by Transposon Mutagenesis [PDF]
, 2010 Xanthomonas albilineans is a systemic, xylem-invading pathogen that causes sugarcane leaf scald. Leaf symptoms vary from a single, white, narrow, sharply defined stripe to complete wilting and necrosis of infected leaves, leading to plant death.

Diversity of the Superfamily of Phloem Lectins (Phloem Protein 2) in Angiosperms [PDF]
Plant Physiology, 2003 Abstract Phloem protein 2 (PP2) is one of the most abundant and enigmatic proteins in the phloem sap. Although thought to be associated with structural P-protein, PP2 is translocated in the assimilate stream where its lectin activity or RNA-binding properties can exert effects over long distances.

Cereal Chemistry, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Background and Objectives Wild rice (WR), a nutritious cereal rich in phytochemicals, remains underutilized despite its health benefits. This study explored deep purple (DP), purple sun hybrid (PSH), purple haze (PH), cosmic purple (CP), and vistaric sky blue (VSB) carrot powders as fortificants in WR noodles at 10%, 20%, and 30% levels in ...

Phloem transport and drought [PDF]
Journal of Experimental Botany, 2014 Drought challenges plant water uptake and the vascular system. In the xylem it causes embolism that impairs water transport from the soil to the leaves and, if uncontrolled, may even lead to plant mortality via hydraulic failure. What happens in the phloem, however, is less clear because measuring phloem transport is still a significant challenge to ...

Cytoskeleton, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Lateral root (LR) organogenesis is regulated by cellular flux of auxin within pericycle cells, which depends on the membrane distribution and polar localization of auxin carrier proteins. The correct distribution of auxin carrier proteins relies on the intracellular trafficking of these proteins aided by filamentous actin as a track.

Viroid Intercellular Trafficking: RNA Motifs, Cellular Factors and Broad Impacts
Viruses, 2009 Viroids are noncoding RNAs that infect plants. In order to establish systemic infection, these RNAs must traffic from an initially infected host cell into neighboring cells and ultimately throughout a whole plant.

Developmental biology of wood formation [PDF]
, 2003 The wood-forming vascular cambium is responsible for the production of a large part of the biomass on this planet. Yet, there is only limited knowledge on how cell proliferation and differentiation in the cambial meristem are regulated.
