Assessing diversity in canopy architecture, photosynthesis, and water‐use efficiency in a cowpea magic population

Food and Energy Security, 2020
Optimizing crops to improve light absorption and CO2 assimilation throughout the canopy is a proposed strategy to increase yield and meet the needs of a growing population by 2050.

Does Long-Term Elevation of CO2 Concentration Increase Photosynthesis in Forest Floor Vegetation? (Indiana Strawberry in a Maryland Forest). [PDF]

, 1997
As the partial pressure of CO2 (pCO2) in the atmosphere rises, photorespiratory loss of carbon in C3 photosynthesis will diminish and the net efficiency of light-limited photosynthetic carbon uptake should rise.

Optimizing supplemental light spectrum improves growth and yield of cut roses

Scientific Reports, 2023
During the seasons with limited light intensity, reductions in growth, yield, and quality are challenging for commercial cut rose production in greenhouses.

Phenotypic landscape inference reveals multiple evolutionary paths to C$_4$ photosynthesis [PDF]

, 2013
C$_4$ photosynthesis has independently evolved from the ancestral C$_3$ pathway in at least 60 plant lineages, but, as with other complex traits, how it evolved is unclear.

Genome-wide identification and characterisation of Aquaporins in Nicotiana tabacum and their relationships with other Solanaceae species

BMC Plant Biology, 2020
Background Cellular membranes are dynamic structures, continuously adjusting their composition, allowing plants to respond to developmental signals, stresses, and changing environments. To facilitate transmembrane transport of substrates, plant membranes

Conserved cellular patterning in the mesophyll of rice leaves

Plant Direct, 2023
The mesophyll cells of grass leaves, such as rice, are traditionally viewed as displaying a relatively uniform pattern, in contrast to the clear distinctions of palisade and spongy layers in typical eudicot leaves. This quantitative analysis of mesophyll

Genome-wide Association Study Identifies Candidate Loci with Major Contributions to the Genetic Control of Pod Morphological Traits in Snap Bean

Journal of the American Society for Horticultural Science, 2023
Snap beans are cultivars of common bean (Phaseolus vulgaris) that are cultivated for their fleshy immature pods that exhibit a wide diversity of pod shapes and sizes. The genetic basis of the snap bean pod shape is complex and involves the interaction of

Photosynthetic responses of three common mosses from continental Antarctica [PDF]

, 2005
Predicting the effects of climate change on Antarctic terrestrial vegetation requires a better knowledge of the ecophysiology of common moss species. In this paper we provide a comprehensive matrix for photosynthesis and major environmental parameters ...

Mechanistic insights into chemical and photochemical transformations of bismuth vanadate photoanodes

Nature Communications, 2016
Metal oxide semiconductors are promising materials for solar energy capture but can suffer from stability problems. Here, the authors present a methodology for evaluating corrosion mechanisms and apply it to BiVO4, revealing chemical instabilities that ...

Vacuolar H+-pyrophosphatase AVP1 is involved in amine fungicide tolerance in Arabidopsis thaliana and provides tridemorph resistance in yeast

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2016
Amine fungicides are widely used as crop protectants. Their success is believed to be related to their ability to inhibit postlanosterol sterol biosynthesis in fungi, in particular sterol-Δ8,Δ7-isomerases and sterol-Δ14-reductases, with a concomitant ...
