Search for Resistance to Egyptian Broomrape (Orobanche Aegyptiaca) in Tomato Germplasm [PDF]
This experiment was conducted to compare the level of resistance to Orobanche aegyptiaca (also known as broomrape) in a collection of sixty wild and cultivated tomato spices. One commercial susceptible variety ‘Samara’ was used as control. The experiment

Strategy for shoot meristem proliferation in plants [PDF]
Shoot apical meristem (SAM) of plants harbors stem cells capable of generating the aerial tissues including reproductive organs. Therefore, it is very important for plants to control SAM proliferation and its density as a survival strategy. The SAM is regulated by the dynamics of a specific gene network, such as the WUS-CLV interaction of A.

A Statistical Description of Plant Shoot Architecture [PDF]
Plant architectures can be characterized statistically by their spatial density function, which specifies the probability of finding a branch at each location in the territory occupied by a plant. Using high-precision 3D scanning, we analyzed 557 plant shoot architectures, representing three species, grown across three to five environmental conditions,

Shoot–Root Communication in Flowering Plants [PDF]
As sessile organisms, terrestrial plants have evolved sophisticated mechanisms to coordinate the growth and development of two distinct systems, the shoot and the root, in response to environmental fluctuations. Adaptive systemic responses are accomplished by shoot-root communication, which involves diverse long-distance signalling molecules.

Sensor-based phenotyping of above-ground plant-pathogen interactions [PDF]
Plant pathogens cause yield losses in crops worldwide. Breeding for improved disease resistance and management by precision agriculture are two approaches to limit such yield losses.

Gravitropism in Higher Plant Shoots [PDF]
It has long been known that applied ethylene can redirect the gravitropic response, but only occasionally has it been suggested that ethylene normally plays a role in gravitropism. Two inhibitors of ethylene synthesis [Co(2+) and aminoethoxyvinylglycine (AVG)] and two inhibitors of ethylene action (Ag(+) and CO(2)) were shown to delay the gravitropic ...
