Mycorrhiza‐induced resistance against Botrytis cinerea in tomato operates through the systemin signalling cascade

New Phytologist, EarlyView.
Prosystemin expression in mycorrhizal plants and comparative analysis of prosystemin and mycorrhiza in induced resistance. Summary Arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi enhance plant resistance against necrotrophic fungi by priming jasmonic acid‐dependent defences.

A tomato MIK2‐clade receptor is involved in the perception of a Fusarium‐derived elicitor

New Phytologist, EarlyView.
Fusarium elicitor responsivness and MIK2‐clade proteins are conserved across plant families. Summary Plants continuously monitor their environment to adapt to threats affecting health and fitness. Cell‐surface receptors detect conserved microbe‐associated molecular patterns (MAMPs) or endogenous immunogenic signals to activate signaling pathways that ...

Design, Integration, and Experiment of Transplanting Robot for Early Plug Tray Seedling in a Plant Factory

AgriEngineering
In the context of plant factories relying on artificial light sources, energy consumption stands out as a significant cost factor. Implementing early seedling removal and replacement operations has the potential to enhance the yield per unit area and the

Optimization of environmental factors affecting initial growth of Norway spruce seedlings

Silva Fennica, 2012
The purpose of the study was to create a near optimal environment for seedling establishment and growth, without the restrain of water and nutrients but under climate conditions typical for the region.

Multi‐Omics Analyses Reveal the Red and Far‐Red Light Combination Enhancing Heterologous Protein and Metabolite Production in Nicotiana benthamiana

Plant, Cell &Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Transient expression of exogenous protein in Nicotiana benthamiana leaves via agroinfiltration offers a rapid and efficient platform for functional gene discovery and heterologous production of valuable eukaryotic proteins and metabolites. Though light quality is an important factor for plant photomorphogenesis, its impact on the efficiency of

Effects of Wilting Treatment on the Quality of Cabbage Plug Seedlings.

Engei Gakkai zasshi, 2002
The effects of a wilting treatment on the quality of cabbage plug seedlings were investigated. There was a positive correlation between rootball moisture content of 40% or less and a shoot water potential of -1.0 MPa or lower. When seedlings were allowed to wilt to a point where shoot water potential was -1.4 MPa or lower, root ball moisture content ...

Loss of DET1 in High Pigment 2 Tomato Prevents High Temperature Repression of Anthocyanin Biosynthesis in Fruit Through HY5 Stabilization

Plant, Cell &Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Global warming impacts several aspects of plant physiology, with important negative effects on crop yield and production of secondary metabolites, such as anthocyanins. The anthocyanin content of vegetables and fruits has attracted public interest in the last two decades due to its health benefits, leading to the development of novel ...

Methyl Jasmonate Seed Priming Mitigates the Defence‐Growth Trade‐Off and Tailors Plant Response to Specific Pests

Plant, Cell &Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Seed defence priming is emerging as a novel, cost‐efficient and environmentally safe tool for pest management. It has been proposed as a means to uncouple the defence‐growth trade‐off in plants by enhancing defence responses with minimal fitness costs, but the mechanisms underlying this role remain elusive.

Glyphosate residues in soil alter herbivore‐induced plant volatiles and affect predatory insect behaviour

Plant Biology, EarlyView.
Herbicide residues in soil disrupt plant–insect signalling, reducing the effectiveness of biological pest control. Abstract Plants under herbivore attack emit distinct blends of herbivore‐induced plant volatiles (HIPVs) which serve as signalling cues for predatory insects.

Field‐grown coastal dune plants exhibit similar survival, growth, and biomass in recycled glass substrate and natural beach sand

Restoration Ecology, EarlyView.
Restoration of coastal dunes following tropical storm events often requires renourishment of sand substrate dredged from offshore sources, although dredging has well‐described negative ecological impacts and high economic costs. As a potential solution, recycled glass sand (cullet) made from crushed glass bottles has been proposed as a potential ...
