Phospholipids in the Developing Soybean Seed [PDF]

open access: yesPlant Physiology, 1974
The distribution of phospholipids in developing soybean seeds [Glycine max (L.) Merr., var. "Chippewa 64," "Harosoy 63," "Wayne," and "Clark 63"] was followed. From 30 to 60 days after flowering expressed as mole per cent of phospholipid phosphorus phosphatidic acid decreased from 14.8 to 9.1; phosphatidylinositol increased from 0 to 9.1 ...

From Doktor Kurowski's Schneegrenze to our modern glacier equilibrium line altitude (ELA) [PDF]

open access: yesThe Cryosphere, 2015
Translated into modern terminology, Kurowski suggested in 1891 that the equilibrium line altitude (ELA) of a glacier is equal to the mean altitude of the glacier when the whole glacier is in balance between accumulation and ablation.

The oxygen status of the developing seed [PDF]

open access: yesNew Phytologist, 2009
SummaryRecent applications of oxygen‐sensitive microsensors have demonstrated steep oxygen gradients in developing seeds of various crops. Here, we present an overview on oxygen distribution, major determinants of the oxygen status in the developing seed and implications for seed physiology.

War and Migration in the White African Tropics: Lauren St John’s Rainbow’s End

open access: yeseTropic: electronic journal of studies in the tropics, 2016
This paper explores voyage and migration in tropical Africa through Lauren St John’s Rainbow’s End, a memoir contributing to debates of white African identity that now include more contemporary renditions of identity in female self-reflective accounts ...

Exploring Values and Beliefs in a Complex Coastal Social-Ecological System: A Case of Small-Scale Fishery and Dried Fish Production in Sagar Island, Indian Sundarbans

open access: yesFrontiers in Marine Science, 2021
The survivability of the small-scale fishery and dried fish production in Indian Sundarbans, despite increasing threats posed by climate, environmental, economic, and policy drivers, suggests that they possess certain unique strengths and capabilities ...

The Impact of Detail, Shadowing and Thermal Zoning Levels on Urban Building Energy Modelling (UBEM) on a District Scale

open access: yesEnergies, 2022
New modelling tools are required to accelerate the decarbonisation of the building sector. Urban building energy modelling (UBEM) has recently emerged as an attractive paradigm for analysing building energy performance at district and urban scales.

Seed development: With or without sex? [PDF]

open access: yesCurrent Biology, 1999
In Arabidopsis, mutations in the genes FIE, FIS2 or MEDEA disrupt the normal dependence of seed development on fertilization. The products of these genes are similar to Polycomb group proteins, suggesting possible mechanisms for determining whether seeds can be produced sexually or asexually.

Transcriptomic analysis of seed development in Paysonia auriculata (Brassicaceae) identifies genes involved in hydroxy fatty acid biosynthesis

open access: yesFrontiers in Plant Science, 2023
Paysonia auriculata (Brassicaceae) produces multiple hydroxy fatty acids as major components of the seed oil. We tracked the changes in seed oil composition and gene expression during development, starting 14 days after flowers had been pollinated.

Seed Coat Development and Dormancy [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
Two major types of dormancy mechanisms exist: embryo dormancy where the agents inhibiting germination are inherent to the embryo, and coat-imposed dormancy where inhibition is conferred by the seed envelopes (Bewley, 1997). Generally, complex interactions between the embryo and covering structures determine whether a seed will germinate.
