The Role of Roots in Plant Defence
Roots play an important role for plant defence and resistance against pathogens and insect herbivores: They act as environmental sensors for space, nutrients and water, they are important biosynthetic sites of plant toxins, they can store assimilates for

Temporal changes in carboxylate content of ryegrass with stepwise change in nutrition [PDF]
A detailed scheme of carboxylate formation and retention by plant tissues as a result of ion uptake and utilization is given. By means of discontinuities in the supply with nutrient ions, carboxylate retention by the tissues of perennial ryegrass was ...

Changes in mRNA abundance within Heterodera schachtii-infected roots of Arabidopsis thaliana [PDF]
Gene expression changes in plant roots infected by plant- parasitic cyst nematodes are involved in the formation of nematode feeding sites. We analyzed mRNA abundance changes within roots of Arabidopsis thaliana during the early compatible interaction

ABSTRACT Background Adolescents with high‐risk cancer face complex developmental, psychosocial, and ethical challenges that extend beyond disease‐directed treatment. Although international recommendations exist for communication, psychosocial care, pediatric palliative care, survivorship, and shared decision‐making, these have largely evolved within ...

Central Nervous System Tumors Among Infants in Canada: A Report From CYP‐C
ABSTRACT Background Central nervous system (CNS) tumors in infants are rare, pose unique clinical challenges, and lack large‐scale evidence‐based data to guide management. This study seeks to describe CNS tumors in Canadian infants and to compare their outcomes with those of older children.
