In Vitro Live Cell Imaging Reveals Nuclear Dynamics and Role of the Cytoskeleton During Asymmetric Division of Pollen Mitosis I in Nicotiana Benthamiana

open access: yesCytoskeleton, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Pollen is a male gametophyte of angiosperms. Following meiosis, the microspore undergoes an asymmetric division called pollen mitosis I (PMI), which produces two cells of different sizes: a large vegetative cell and a small generative cell. Polarized nuclear migration and positioning during PMI are important for successful pollen development ...

Foliar lead uptake by lettuce exposed to atmospheric fallouts [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
Metal uptake by plants occurs by soil−root transfer but also by direct transfer of contaminants from the atmosphere to the shoots. This second pathway may be particularly important in kitchen gardens near industrial plants.

Insertion Profiles in Stomatal Density and Sizes in Nicotiana Tabacum L. Plantlets

open access: yesBiologia plantarum, 2001
Tobacco (Nicotiana tabacum L. cv. Samsun) plantlets were cultured in vitro on Murashige-Skoog medium photoautotrophically (without sucrose) or photomixotrophically (with 3 % sucrose) under two irradiances [70 or 230 µmol m−2 s−1]. Significant differences in stomatal density and sizes in leaves of different insertion levels (3rd, 5th and 7th leaves from

THE EFFECT OF SHORT-TERM CHILLING ON THE WATER METABOLISM IN WHEAT AS RELATED TO OPTIMAL AND EXCESSIVE ZINC CONTENT

open access: yesTransactions of the Karelian Research Centre of the Russian Academy of Sciences, 2018
The effect of short-term chilling (to 4°С for 1 day) on the growth and water metabolism in winter wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) when combined with optimal (2 ハM) and excessive (1000 ハM) zinc content in the root area was studied in a controlled environment.
