In vitro culture, cryopreservation, and field reintroduction of the endangered Mingan thistle. [PDF]
Abstract Current plant conservation efforts are hindered by, for example, poor seed germination, low viability, and insufficient propagation and preservation technologies. To address these problems, we devised an approach to plant conservation that integrates conservation, preservation, and restoration (CPR), which uses advanced in vitro techniques. We

Cytokinin activity – transport and homeostasis at the whole plant, cell, and subcellular levels
Summary Cytokinins (CKs) are important plant hormones that regulate a variety of biological processes implicated in plant development and stress responses. Here, we summarize the most recent advances in discovering and characterizing the membrane transporters involved in long‐ and short‐distance translocation of CKs and their significance in CK signal ...
