Machine identification of buds in images of plant shoots

Machine Vision and Applications, 1993
Tissue cultures find increasingly widespread applications for cloning of many plants. Commercial propagation by tissue cultures is limited to ornamental plants, because the cost of skilled labor required cannot compete with conventional propagation methods. To cut down the cost, some automation is essential.

Silica in Shoots of Higher Plants

1981
In the shoots of vascular plants, silica is deposited as amorphous silica gel, SiO2 · nH2O. It occurs in many plant families including the scouring rushes or horsetails (Equisetaceae), grasses (Poaceae), sedges (Cyperaceae), ginger family (Zingiberaceae), spiderworts (Commelina- ceae), nettles (Urticaceae), elm family (Ulmaceae), vervain family (Ver ...

Parthenolide: from plant shoots to cancer roots

Drug Discovery Today, 2013
Parthenolide (PTL), a sesquiterpene lactone (SL) originally purified from the shoots of feverfew (Tanacetum parthenium), has shown potent anticancer and anti-inflammatory activities. It is currently being tested in cancer clinical trials. Structure-activity relationship (SAR) studies of parthenolide revealed key chemical properties required for ...

In vitro plant regeneration from callus of shoot apices in apple shoot culture

Plant Cell Reports, 2000
A new reliable protocol for the induction of adventitious shoot formation and plant regeneration from apple callus has been developed. High regeneration frequency was obtained with this method in four different genotypes (Jork9, M26, Gala and McIntosh) and callus maintained regeneration ability for several months.

Axillary Shoot Branching in Plants

2009
The yield of many crop plants is influenced by the number of axillary shoot branches they produce. Plants possess several mechanisms to control axillary branch growth and development. Recently, tremendous progress has been achieved towards gaining a better understanding of these mechanisms, and several novel genes have been identified which are ...

Plant hydraulic conductance adapts to shoot number but limits shoot vigour in grapevines

Functional Plant Biology, 2014
The rate of shoot growth (vigour) in grapevines tends to decrease as the number of shoots per plant increases. Because the underlying causes of this relationship remain unclear, they were studied by variable pruning of field-grown, deficit-irrigated Merlot grapevines (Vitis vinifera L.).

Phase Change and the Regulation of Shoot Morphogenesis in Plants

Science, 1990
The shoot system of higher plants passes through several different phases during its development. Each of these phases is characterized by a unique set of morphological and physiological attributes. The intermediate character of the structures produced during phase changes and the phenotypes of mutations that affect this process demonstrate that these ...
