Effects of Gravity on Transpiration of Plant Leaves
Annals of the New York Academy of Sciences, 2009To clarify effects of gravity on the water vapor exchange between plants and the ambient air, we evaluated the transpiration rate of plant leaves at 0.01, 1.0, and 2.0 g for 20 s each during parabolic airplane flights. The transpiration rates of a strawberry leaf and a replica leaf made of wet cloth were determined using a chamber method with humidity ...

Organogenesis in plants: initiation and elaboration of leaves
Trends in Genetics, 2015Plant organs initiate from meristems and grow into diverse forms. After initiation, organs enter a morphological phase where they develop their shape, followed by differentiation into mature tissue. Investigations into these processes have revealed numerous factors necessary for proper development, including transcription factors such as the KNOTTED ...

Metabolism of sedoheptulose-C14 in plant leaves
Archives of Biochemistry and Biophysics, 1954Abstract 1. 1. Sedoheptulose-C14 in leaves in the light and in air is rapidly converted to sucrose. In similar experiments in the dark the sedoheptulose is metabolized to respiratory products such as glutamic, aspartic, and succinic acids. 2. 2.

Superexpression of tuberculosis antigens in plant leaves
Tuberculosis, 2007Recent developments in genetic engineering allow the employment of plants as factories for 1/foreign protein production. Thus, tuberculosis (TB) ESAT6 antigen was expressed in different plant systems, but the level of vaccine protein accumulation was extremely low. We describe the technology for superexpression of TB vaccine proteins (Ag85B, ESAT6, and

Annals of Botany, 1979
Tomato plants were grown with limited or luxury water supply and given nitrogen either as the ammonium ion or the nitrate ion. The 'active' iron fractions of the leaves as extracted by etherized tenth molar hydrochloric acid showed no relationship with the total iron but a very significant linear relationship was found between the active iron fraction ...

Aerosol deposition on plant leaves
Water, Air, and Soil Pollution, 1977An aerosol generator and wind tunnel system designed for use in aerosol deposition are described. Gross deposition on rough pubescent leaves was nearly seven times greater than on smooth, waxy leaves. Results suggest that aerosol deposition, on a per unit area basis, for single horizontal streamlining leaves is similar to that for arrays of leaves ...

Photopyroelectric Microscopy of Plant Leaves
International Journal of Thermophysics, 2007The use of photothermal microscopy to obtain superficial and in-depth images, by means of the interaction of a thermal wave with the analyzed material, has reached great interest due to its numerous applications. The application of the photopyroelectric microscopy technique to obtain images of plant leaves is presented in this article.
