Fusarium graminearum‐induced shoot elongation and root reduction in maize seedlings correlate with later seedling blight severity

Plant Direct, 2018
Fusarium graminearum seedling blight is a common disease of maize (Zea mays). Development of genetic resistance to seedling blight in maize germplasm requires efficient and accurate quantitative assessment of disease severity.

The Changes in Seed Germination Capacity, Seedling Growth, and Leaf Morphology of Ficus variegata Blume Influenced by Gamma-Ray Irradiation

Hayati Journal of Biosciences, 2022
Gamma irradiation treatments have commonly been applied to induce variation in plant genetic improvement programs. The improvement of nyawai (Ficus variegata Blume) is urgently needed mainly to break the seed dormancy, increase seedling growth, and ...

Advance, steadfast, retreat? Growth and establishment of white spruce seedlings at treelines in Alaska

Ecosphere
Range dynamics of tree species are largely driven by seedling establishment and survival, mainly at and beyond current treelines. Although numerous studies document the growth of mature white spruce (Picea glauca) trees in Alaska, research on seedling ...

Ethylene regulates post-germination seedling growth in wheat through spatial and temporal modulation of ABA/GA balance

Journal of Experimental Botany, 2019
Ethylene controls post-germination starch degradation and seedling growth, but not radicle protrusion, in wheat through spatiotemporal alteration of the balance between abscisic acid and gibberellin.

Growth Inhibition in Pea Seedlings [PDF]

Nature, 1945
THE inhibition of the growth of lateral buds by the application of auxins in high concentrations to the apical surface of cut stems is well known, and it is often associated with marked swelling of the cut stems. Borgstrom1 explains both the inhibition and the swelling "as being due to increased supplies of auxin set free in a transverse flow from the ...

Effects of the seedling tray overlapping for seed emergence mode on emergence characteristics and growth of rice seedlings

Frontiers in Plant Science
Seedling mode plays a crucial role in the rice production process, as it significantly affects the growth and development of seedlings. Among the various seedling modes, the seedling tray overlapping for seed emergence mode (STOSE mode) has been ...
