Engineering Stress Tolerance in Maize [PDF]
A wide range of environmental stresses (such as chilling, ozone, high light, drought, and heat) can damage crop plants, with consequent high annual yield losses. A common factor in all these unrelated adverse conditions, called oxidative stress, is the enhanced production of active oxygen species (AOS) within several subcellular compartments of the ...

Tolerance of Staphylococcal Thermonuclease to Stress [PDF]
Remarkable tolerance to prolonged heating, prolonged storage, and bacterial proliferation was exhibited by staphylococcal thermonuclease in foods and broth. A purified enzyme preparation added to Brain Heart Infusion broth was unaffected by the growth of five bacterial species. Minimal inactivation was effected by

Stress echocardiography: safety and tolerability [PDF]
Abstract Background Stress echocardiography is a valuable tool for the noninvasive diagnosis of ischemic heart disease. Despite its widely use in the clinical practice, safety and side effects profile have never been evaluated in Moroccans. The aim To assess the safety and

Exploring the High Variability of Vegetative Desiccation Tolerance in Pteridophytes
In the context of plant evolution, pteridophytes, which is comprised of lycophytes and ferns, occupy an intermediate position between bryophytes and seed plants, sharing characteristics with both groups.

The Role of Phytochromes in Stress Tolerance
It is well-documented that phytochromes can control plant growth and development from germination to flowering. Additionally, these photoreceptors have been shown to modulate both biotic and abiotic stress. This has led to a series of studies exploring the molecular and biochemical basis by which phytochromes modulate stresses, such as salinity ...
