Ethephon Reduces Maize Nitrogen Uptake but Improves Nitrogen Utilization in Zea mays L.
Frontiers in Plant Science, 2022 Increasing use of plant density or/and nitrogen (N) application has been introduced to maize production in the past few decades. However, excessive planting density or/and use of fertilizer may cause reduced N use efficiency (NUE) and increased lodging ...

The regulatory and transcriptional landscape associated with carbon utilization in a filamentous fungus. [PDF]
, 2020 Filamentous fungi, such as Neurospora crassa, are very efficient in deconstructing plant biomass by the secretion of an arsenal of plant cell wall-degrading enzymes, by remodeling metabolism to accommodate production of secreted enzymes, and by enabling ...

Giving maize an excited start – Effects of dopamine on maize germination
Journal of Integrative Agriculture, 2020 Dopamine (DA) is a neurotransmitter which takes charge of brain activities about memory and self-stimulation behavior in animals. Interestingly, our results suggest that DA could also give maize an “excited state”.
