Genome-Wide Dissection of Shade Tolerance in Soybean at Seedling Stage

Agronomy
Dense planting and intercropping are the main ways to improve soybean production. However, both confront inter- and intra-crop shading stress. This leads to stem elongation, resulting in lodging and yield losses. Most previous studies have focused on the

Transcriptome Analysis Reveals Differential Gene Expression and a Possible Role of Gibberellins in a Shade-Tolerant Mutant of Perennial Ryegrass

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2017
The molecular basis behind shade tolerance in plants is not fully understood. Previously, we have shown that a connection may exist between shade tolerance and dwarfism, however, the mechanism connecting these phenotypes is not well understood.

Effect of four levels of shade on survival, morphology and chlorophyll fluorescence of Nothofagus alessandrii container-grown seedlings

iForest - Biogeosciences and Forestry, 2015
Nothofagus alessandrii (ruil) is a threatened, endemic tree of the Mediterranean zone of Chile. As a result of past anthropogenic activities, its current cover has been reduced to only 314 hectares across several fragmented and degraded areas.

Clone, natural variation analysis and development of KASP molecular markers for GmYUC2 geneto respond shade stress in soybean

Guangxi Zhiwu
YUC2 was one of the rate-limiting enzymes in auxin biosynthesis, and it involved in plant response to shade stress. In this study, Gongdou 7, an extremely shade-tolerant soybean variety was used for clone of GmYUC2 gene.

Effects of salt and low light intensity during the vegetative stage on susceptibility of rice to male sterility induced by chilling stress during the reproductive stage

Plant Production Science, 2016
We tested whether exposing rice plants to abiotic stress (salt or shade) during vegetative growth affects the chilling tolerance of reproductive organs, which is one of the most important traits for rice growing in a cool climate; we used two rice ...
