Structure and development of extrafloral nectaries and trichomes in Macaranga peltata (Roxb.) Muell. Arg. (Euphorbiaceae)

Acta Societatis Botanicorum Poloniae, 2014
The extrafloral nectaries (30-50) are found on the upper surface of the lamina in Macaranga peltata. Glandular trichomes are restricted to the lower surface while eglandular trichomes are observed on all vegetative and reproductive organs.

Effects of timed LED regimes on tomato plant traits, performance of two‐spotted spider mites, and predatory mites (Phytoseiulus persimilis)

Pest Management Science, Volume 81, Issue 4, Page 2300-2311, April 2025.
Light‐emitting diode (LED)‐based treatments for enhancing crop production and pest management have primarily focused on continuous treatments. This study, using Tetranychus urticae and Phytoseiulus persimilis, demonstrates that the timing of LED supplementation is crucial for designing integrated pest management strategies that improve both plant ...

A new desiccation-related protein identified by proteomics in the phylloplane of Theobroma cacao [PDF]

, 2011
Currently, 20 millions of people from producing countries, such as Brazil, depend directly on cacao (Theobroma cacao L.) for their survival. The witches' broom disease caused by the fungus Moniliophthora perniciosa had drastic consequences on the socio ...

Mutations in UDP-Glucose:Sterol Glucosyltransferase in Arabidopsis Cause Transparent Testa Phenotype and Suberization Defect in Seeds [PDF]

, 2009
In higher plants, the most abundant sterol derivatives are steryl glycosides (SGs) and acyl SGs. Arabidopsis (Arabidopsis thaliana) contains two genes, UGT80A2 and UGT80B1, that encode UDP-Glc:sterol glycosyltransferases, enzymes that catalyze the ...

Flavonoids as Anxiolytics in Animal Tests: Systematic Review, Meta‐Analysis, and Bibliometrical Analysis

Phytotherapy Research, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Flavonoids are natural secondary metabolites of plants with a basic composition derived from polyphenols that can produce a plethora of different neurophysiological effects, some of which are relevant to anxiety disorders. As such, many flavonoids have been evaluated in behavioral screens in preclinical research on anxiolytics.

Characterization of ROP GTPase-activated Arabidopsis receptor-like cytoplasmic kinases (RLCK class VI_A) [PDF]

, 2011
Plants have to respond and adapt to a variety of continuously changing environmental factors in order to establish an appropriate developmental strategy to ensure survival. There are ample data showing that protein phosphorylation/dephosphorylation plays

The MED30 subunit of mediator complex is essential for early plant development and promotes flowering in arabidopsis thaliana [PDF]

, 2019
Mediator is a large multiprotein complex that is required for the transcription of most, if not all, genes transcribed by RNA Polymerase II. A core set of subunits is essential to assemble a functional Mediator in vitro and, therefore, the corresponding ...

Pitardia resurrected: A new member of subtribe Menthinae (Lamiaceae)

TAXON, EarlyView.
Abstract Despite tremendous progress towards clarifying phylogenetic relationships within the mint family (Lamiaceae), uncertainty remains regarding relationships among some major clades as well as the proper placement of some genera. While researching the genus Nepeta, a species from northeastern Morocco, N.

Trichomes as a defense mechanism against climbing plants

Plant Signaling & Behavior
Non-glandular trichomes are essential in plant defence against herbivores and water loss. However, evolutionary pressures often favor the development of multifunctional traits, suggesting that trichomes may serve multiple ecological roles. I hypothesized

Intergeneric Comparison of Staminal Trichomes in the Tribe Ipomoeeae (Convolvulaceae)

Plants
Hairs or trichomes distributed on the base of filaments in the morning glory family, known as staminal trichomes, differ from those found on other plant parts and have been recognized for their taxonomic value for over a century.
