Characterization of Lr46, a gene conferring partial resistance to wheat leaf rust [PDF]
Components of resistance conferred by the Lr46 gene, reported as causing "slow rusting" resistance to leaf rust in wheat, were studied and compared with the effects of Lr34 and genes for quantitative resistance in cv. Akabozu. Lr34 is a gene that confers

Characterization of a source of resistance to aflatoxin accumulation in maize
Aflatoxinproduced by the fungus Aspergillus flavus (Link:Fr) can accumulate in maize (Zea mays L.) and poses serious human health and economic concerns, especially in sub‐Saharan Africa. Genetic resistance against A.

Natural selection on plant resistance to herbivores in the native and introduced range [PDF]
. When plants are introduced into new regions, the absence of their co-evolved natural enemies can result in lower levels of attack. As a consequence of this reduction in enemy pressure, plant performance may increase and selection for resistance to ...

New Insight into the Function of Dopamine (DA) during Cd Stress in Duckweed (Lemna turionifera 5511)
Dopamine (DA), a kind of neurotransmitter in animals, has been proven to cause a positive influence on plants during abiotic stress. In the present study, the function of DA on plants under cadmium (Cd) stress was revealed.

Fitness costs associated with evolved herbicide resistance alleles in plants [PDF]
Predictions based on evolutionary theory suggest that the adaptive value of evolved herbicide resistance alleles may be compromised by the existence of fitness costs.

Advances in Plant-Nematode Interactions with Emphasis on the Notorious Nematode Genus Meloidogyne. [PDF]
Plant infections by plant-parasitic nematodes (PPNs) continue to be one of the major limitations in agricultural systems. Root-knot nematodes (RKNs), belonging to the genus Meloidogyne, are one of the most important groups of PPNs worldwide.

The Receptor-Like Kinase SERK3/BAK1 Is Required for Basal Resistance against the Late Blight Pathogen Phytophthora infestans in Nicotiana benthamiana [PDF]
BACKGROUND The filamentous oomycete plant pathogen Phytophthora infestans causes late blight, an economically important disease, on members of the nightshade family (Solanaceae), such as the crop plants potato and tomato.
