High-Throughput Phenotyping of Plant Shoots

2012
Advances in automated plant handling and image acquisition now make it possible to use digital imaging for the high-throughput phenotyping of plants. Various traits can be extracted from individual images. However, the potential of this technology lies in the acquisition of time series.

The Geoelectric Effect in Plant Shoots:

Journal of Experimental Botany, 1971
Incubation of Zea coleoptiles in 0-5 M mannitol totally inhibits growth and geotropic curva ture, but does not affect the development of the geoelectric effect. This pre-treatment also inhibits the curvature induced by the asymmetrical application of IAA to the apical end of decapitated vertical coleoptiles, but it does not prevent the IAA from giving ...

The Geoelectric Effect in Plant Shoots

Journal of Experimental Botany, 1970
The development of the geoelectric effect has been followed in Zea coleoptiles with a flowing solution electrode system, and its dependence upon auxin concentration gradients and aerobic metabolism assessed. A symmetrical source of IAA can effectively replace the coleoptile tip in allowing the geo electric potential to occur.

The Geoelectric Effect in Plant Shoots

Journal of Experimental Botany, 1972
In earlier papers Woodcock and Wilkins, and Hertz and Grahm reported measurements of the geoelectric effect (GEE) in Zea mays coleoptiles. While Woodcock and Wilkins attached contact electrodes to the coleoptile directly, Grahm and Hertz employed a vibrating-electrode technique that avoided touching the plant.

A new conception of the shoot of higher plants

Journal of Theoretical Biology, 1974
Abstract According to the classical model, the “shoot” consists only of the categories “caulome” (“stem” sensu lato ) and “phyllome” (“leaf” sensu lato ), (and “root” in cases of “adventitious” root formation). If lateral shoots are present, their position is axillary.

Overview of Plant Shooting Branch

Journal of Northeast Agricultural University (English Edition), 2012
Abstract The development of plant branching plays a pivotal role in the morphogenesis of plants. It is affected by the genes and also by the environment. Recent studies of plant branching had made great progresses in the development of the branch control of the physiology, biochemistry, functional genomics, comparative genomics and other aspects ...

Regeneration of cassava plants via shoot organogenesis

Plant Cell Reports, 1998
A novel regeneration system based on direct shoot organogenesis is described for cassava. Plants could be regenerated at high frequency by inducing shoot primordia on explants derived from cotyledons of cassava somatic embryos. After a passage on elongation medium, the regenerated shoots were easily rooted in hormone-free medium and could be ...

PREDICTING CHEMICAL ACCUMULATION IN SHOOTS OF AQUATIC PLANTS

Environmental Toxicology and Chemistry, 1991
Abstract Chemical exchange dynamics expected for diffusive transfer of a chemical between aqueous solution and plant shoots, and expected bioconcentration based on partitioning properties of the chemical, are explored by using a three—compartment model.

Recovery of transgenic plants from “escape” shoots

Plant Cell Reports, 1989
The problem of escapes is well known to those investigating the regeneration of transgenic shoots from transformed callus. Shoots can pass various tests and assays for transformation, and are then scored as transgenic, but the progeny do not express the transferred trait and do not contain the T-DNA.

Fluxes of atmospheric hydrogen sulphide to plant shoots

New Phytologist, 1989
summaryShort‐term exposure of maize, pumpkin, spinach and spruce to various atmospheric H2S concentrations resulted in high H2S fluxes to the shoots. In all species an almost linear relation was observed between flux and H2S concentration up to around 0.3 μl −1.
