Conservation of Arabidopsis thaliana photoperiodic flowering time genes in onion (Allium cepa L.) [PDF]
, 2010 The genetics underlying onion development is poorly understood. Here the characterisation of onion homologues of Arabidopsis photoperiodic flowering pathway genes is reported with the end goal of accelerating onion breeding programmes by understanding ...

Advanced Science, EarlyView.In maize, the bHLH transcription factor ZmbHLH118 directly binds to the promoter of ZmCLCa and inhibits its expression. Tonoplast‐localized ZmCLCa mediates NO3− influx into the vacuole to regulate intracellular NO3− homeostasis, modulating nitrate uptake and metabolism, plant growth, and grain yield.

Ecological Adaptation Mechanisms Underlying Successful Plant Reproduction
Advanced Science, EarlyView.During floral induction, various environmental and endogenous signals converge to regulate the florigen protein, which is transported from leaves to the SAM to initiate flowering. Within the SAM, a complex network of receptor kinases and small peptides orchestrates floral development with high spatiotemporal precision.

The Shape of the Trade-Off Function Between Reproduction and Future Performance in \u3cem\u3ePlantago major\u3c/em\u3e and \u3cem\u3ePlantago rugelii\u3c/em\u3e [PDF]
, 2002 There is a paucity of data describing the nature of the trade-off function between reproduction and future performance. Most studies implicitly assume it is a linear function such that allocation of resources to reproduction results in a proportional ...

Latitudinal trends in human primary activities: characterizing the winter day as a synchronizer [PDF]
, 2017 This work analyzes time use surveys from 19 countries (17 European and 2 American) in the middle latitude range from 38{\deg} to 61{\deg} latitude accounting for 45% of world population in that range.

Natural Variation of NAR5 Determines Nitrogenase Activity and the Yield in Soybean
Advanced Science, EarlyView.This study identified NAR5, a gene encoding a subtilisin‐like protease, that regulates nitrogenase activity in soybean nodules. Overexpressing NAR5 delayed nodule senescence, enhancing nitrogenase activity, yield, and low‐nitrogen tolerance. The elite haplotype NAR5HapI‐1 linked to superior nitrogenase activity and greater seed weight has been ...
