Moderate leaf rolling helps to form the ideotype of rice. In this study, six independent OsRUS1-GFP overexpression (OsRUS1-OX) transgenic rice lines with rapid and dynamic leaf rolling phenotype in response to sunlight were constructed.

Characteristics of C-4 photosynthesis in stems and petioles of C-3 flowering plants [PDF]
Most plants are known as C-3 plants because the first product of photosynthetic CO2 fixation is a three-carbon compound. C-4 plants, which use an alternative pathway in which the first product is a four-carbon compound, have evolved independently many ...

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

Conserved cellular patterning in the mesophyll of rice leaves
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

The use of tracer carbon, as carbon-14, has made possible considerable progress in the mapping of the routes taken by the carbon atom from CO/sub 2/ into plant substances. The techniques of separation and identification that have made the progress possible lie largely in the region of chromatography and radioautography involving fractional-gamma ...

Mechanistic insights into chemical and photochemical transformations of bismuth vanadate photoanodes
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 ...
