CryoFluorSEM – A new approach for fluorescence and EM imaging of cryofractured plant samples
Abstract Cryo‐scanning electron microscopy (CryoSEM) permits the preparation and detailed imaging of bulky samples while keeping them in a hydrated state. For plant biology, cryofractures give information on cell ultrastructure and tissue organisation within a much larger context that is the whole organ or organism.

Genotypic variation of dormancy in wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) : a thesis presented in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Agricultural Science, Department of Plant Science, Massey University, Palmerston North, New Zealand [PDF]
Embryo dormancy and α - amylase dormancy are desirable in wheat to minimise pre-harvest sprouting damage. The current work focuses on the embryo and graincoat colour.

Summary Stone cells originate from secondary cell wall thickening and contain abundant lignin. Their excessive accumulation compromises pear fruit quality, yet the endogenous hormonal mechanisms governing stone cell formation remain unclear. Here, co‐expression network analysis using transcriptome data – the flesh of 206 sand pear accessions sampled at

Three closely linked X‐chromosomal genes potentially control sex determination in Cannabis sativa
Summary Sex determination mechanisms in dioecious plants remain poorly understood yet offer an excellent model system to study genetic changes underlying morphological evolution. We investigated the genetic basis of sex determination in Cannabis sativa, combining quantitative trait locus mapping in a segregating population, comparative transcriptomics ...

Summary Jasmonates (JAs)‐mediated pathways are central signaling hubs in plant defense responses. However, the identification of mobile and nonmobile signals involved in downstream systemic signaling is still less studied. Here, we investigate the role of the jasmonic acid‐isoleucine (JA‐Ile) conjugating enzyme, JAR1, in shifting wound‐induced local ...

Exogenous application of tryptophan and indole acetic acid (IAA) to induce root nodule formation and increase yield of soybean [PDF]
This study aimed at understanding to what extent extracellular tryptophan and indole acetic acid (IAA) induce soybean root nodules formation. Greenhouse experiment was conducted in plastic pots and sterile sand planting medium, arranged in ...

Summary Volatile organic compounds (VOCs) emitted by soil bacteria influence interactions with other soil microbes and plants. While their potential as plant growth promoters is well recognized, their role in promoting plant resilience to abiotic stress and the underlying molecular mechanisms remain poorly understood.

Climate change and crop resilience: harnessing metabolomics for predicting stress tolerance
Summarised methodology for metabolite biomarker discovery and genomic targets selection for those metabolites to predict high‐throughput phenotypic and agronomic traits of interest for direct uptake in breeding programmes. Summary Global warming is driving climate change to levels not experienced since the advent of agriculture, primarily due to ...

ABSTRACT Clubroot, a severe soil‐borne disease caused by Plasmodiophora brassicae, poses a severe threat to global production of Brassicaceae oilseed crops and vegetables. To date, there has been a serious lack of clubroot‐resistant germplasms in Brassica napus (AACC), necessitating the urgent development of novel disease‐resistant germplasm.
