Flooding-adaptive root and shoot traits in rice [PDF]
Functional Plant BiologyWetland plants, including rice (Oryza spp.), have developed multiple functional adaptive traits to survive soil flooding, partial submergence or even complete submergence. In waterlogged soils and under water, diffusion of O2 and CO2 is extremely slow with severe impacts on photosynthesis and respiration.

Relationship Between Neurologic Symptoms and Signs and FMR1 Genotype in Premutation Carriers
Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Background and Objectives Fragile X‐associated Tremor/Ataxia Syndrome (FXTAS) is the most severe late‐onset condition caused by a premutation in the FMR1 gene, characterized by expanded CGG triplet repeats of 55–200. Clinical presentations of FXTAS, including gait ataxia, kinetic tremor, cognitive decline, and rare Parkinsonism, are linked to ...

Influence of phase change within a 90-year-old Sequoia sempervirens on its in vitro organogenic capacity and protein patterns [PDF]
, 1994 Shoot-tips collected from stump shoots at the base of a 90-year-old #Sequoia sempervirens# and from the crown of the same donor tree were compared in respect of their organogenic performance in in vitro conditions.

Role of secondary and putative traits for improvement of upland rice [PDF]
Electronic Journal of Plant Breeding, 2010 Even though yield under stress is the primary trait for selection in breeding programmes for drought prone environments,low heritability of yield necessitates an alternative approach such as selection for secondary and putative traits.

Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Background and Purpose White matter hyperintensities (WMH) are a core neuroimaging marker of cerebral small vessel disease (CSVD). Sleep apnoea (SA) is a recognized vascular risk factor, but its associations with regional WMH burden, short‐interval WMH change and cognitive performance in population‐based cohorts remain incompletely defined.

Root responses to domestication, precipitation and silicification: weeping meadow grass simplifies and alters toughness [PDF]
, 2018 Background and aims Plant breeding usually focuses on conspicuous above-ground plant traits, yet roots fundamentally underpin plant fitness. Roots show phenotypic plasticity in response to soil conditions but it is unclear whether domesticated plants ...
