Creeping Bentgrass Fairway Wear Resistance by Granular Topdressing of Ca/Mg-rich Liming Agents

open access: yesAgriculture, 2020
Depletion of extractable silicon (Si) from surface soil depths has been observed in managed production systems. While not characterized as a plant essential nutrient, Si accrues in epidermal and vascular tissue of monocotyledonous plants.

Analysis of transcripts and splice isoforms in red clover (Trifolium pratense L.) by single-molecule long-read sequencing

open access: yesBMC Plant Biology, 2018
Background Red clover (Trifolium pratense L.) is an important cool-season legume plant, which is the most widely planted forage legume after alfalfa. Although a draft genome sequence was published already, the sequences and completed structure of mRNA ...

Heterologous expression of a novel Poa pratensis gibberellin 2-oxidase gene, PpGA2ox, caused dwarfism, late flowering, and increased chlorophyll accumulation in Arabidopsis

open access: yesBiologia Plantarum, 2018
Gibberellin 2-oxidases (GA2oxs) irreversibly convert bioactive gibberellins (GAs) and their immediate precursors into inactive GAs via 2-β hydroxylation and so regulate gibberellin content in plants. However, to the best of our knowledge, little has been

Predominant Microbial Colonizers in the Root Endosphere and Rhizosphere of Turfgrass Systems: Pseudomonas veronii, Janthinobacterium lividum, and Pseudogymnoascus spp.

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2021
Microbes can colonize plant roots to modulate plant health and environmental fitness. Thus, using microbes to improve plant adaptation to biotic and abiotic stresses will be promising to abate the heavy reliance of management systems on synthetic ...

Perennial Ryegrass Wear Resistance and Soil Amendment by Ca- and Mg-Silicates

open access: yesAgronomy, 2019
Proactive optimization of soil chemistry is a task commonly overlooked by agronomic practitioners. Agricultural field assessments have reported depletion of extractable soil silicon (Si) from shallow depths of intensively managed systems.

Over-expression of KdSOC1 gene affected plantlet morphogenesis in Kalanchoe daigremontiana

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2017
Kalanchoe daigremontiana reproduces asexually by producing plantlets along the leaf margin. The aim of this study was to identify the function of the SUPPRESSOR OF OVEREXPRESSION OF CONSTANS 1 gene in Kalanchoe daigremontiana (KdSOC1) during plantlet ...

New Insights into the Mechanism of Trichoderma virens-Induced Developmental Effects on Agrostis stolonifera Disease Resistance against Dollar Spot Infection

open access: yesJournal of Fungi, 2022
Trichoderma is internationally recognized as a biocontrol fungus for its broad-spectrum antimicrobial activity. Intriguingly, the crosstalk mechanism between the plant and Trichoderma is dynamic, depending on the Trichoderma strains and the plant species.
