Development of a novel and rapid phenotype-based screening method to assess rice seedling growth

open access: yesPlant Methods, 2020
Background Rice (Oryza sativa) is one of the most important model crops in plant research. Despite its considerable advantages, (phenotypic) bioassays for rice are not as well developed as for Arabidopsis thaliana.

Enhancing maize radiation use efficiency under high planting density by shaping canopy architecture with a plant growth regulator

open access: yesCrop and Environment
Optimized maize (Zea mays L.) canopy architecture enhances density-tolerance. DHEAP (N, N-Diethyl-2-hexanoyl oxygen radicals-ethyl amine (2-ethyl chloride) phosphonic acid salt) has been shown to increase maize upper canopy strata compactness, but its ...

Diversity of plant growth-promoting bacteria associated with sugarcane [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
The sugarcane (Saccharum spp) presents economic importance, mainly for tropical regions, being an important Brazilian commodity. However, this crop is strongly dependent on fertilizers, mainly nitrogen (N).

Growth, leaf anatomy, and photosynthesis of cotton (Gossypium hirsutum L.) seedlings in response to four light-emitting diodes and high pressure sodium lamp

open access: yesJournal of Cotton Research
Background Light is a critical factor in plant growth and development, particularly in controlled environments. Light-emitting diodes (LEDs) have become a reliable alternative to conventional high pressure sodium (HSP) lamps because they are more ...

Effects of plant growth promoting rhizobacteria (PGPR) on yield,growth and nutrient contents in organically growing raspberry [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
During 2003 and 2005, plant growth promoting effects of two Bacillus strains OSU-142 (N2-fixing) and M3 (N2-fixing and phosphate solubilizing) were tested alone or in combinations on organically grown primocane fruiting raspberry (cv.

Ethylene in Plant Growth [PDF]

open access: yesProceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 1973
Ethylene inhibits cell division, DNA synthesis, and growth in the meristems of roots, shoots, and axillary buds, without influencing RNA synthesis. Apical dominance often is broken when ethylene is removed, apparently because the gas inhibits polar auxin transport irreversibly, thereby reducing the shoot's auxin content just as if the apex

WRKYs as regulatory hubs of secondary metabolic networks: Diverse inducers and distinct responses

open access: yesPlant Communications
WRKY transcription factors (TFs) have been widely investigated for their roles in stress responses and plant development. Nevertheless, recent studies have revealed that WRKY TFs also exert important functions in the regulation of plant secondary ...

Label-free visualization of fruit lignification: Raman molecular imaging of loquat lignified cells

open access: yesPlant Methods, 2018
Background Flesh lignification, leading to increased fruit firmness, has been reported in several kinds of fruit. Understanding the mechanisms underlying fruit lignification is important to optimize the postharvest storage strategies and reduce the ...
