Short Exposure to Full Moonlight Has a Long‐Term Impact on Brassica juncea Cell Activity and Growth
ABSTRACT Lunar farming, often regarded as a myth, is regularly practiced in many places around the world (e.g., India) where framers organized their agricultural activities according to moon phases. Early and recent work showed that exposure to moonlight affects the life cycle of plants, from seed germination and vegetative growth to fruit maturation ...

ABSTRACT Rubisco, the most prevalent protein on Earth, catalysers both a reaction that initiates C3 carbon fixation, and a reaction that initiates photorespiration, which stimulates protein synthesis. Regulation of the balance between these reactions under atmospheric CO2 fluctuations remains poorly understood. We have hypothesised that vascular plants

ABSTRACT To identify novel genes engaged in plant epidermal development, we characterized the phenotypic variability of rosette leaf epidermis of 310 sequenced Arabidopsis thaliana accessions, focusing on trichome shape and distribution, compositional characteristics of the trichome cell wall, and histologically detectable metal ion distribution.

ABSTRACT Nitrate reduction requires reducing equivalents produced by the photosynthetic electron transport chain. Therefore, it has been suggested that nitrate assimilation provides a sink for electrons under high light conditions. We tested this hypothesis by monitoring photosynthetic efficiency and the chloroplastic glutathione redox potential (chl ...

Abstract Premise Uncarina contains 14 species of woody plants endemic to Madagascar. Its occurrence across dryland biomes on the island make it an interesting system to study the diversification of the flora. Methods Using samples of all species and 512 nuclear loci, we reconstructed phylogenetic trees to examine species relationships and assess their ...
