Understanding physiological mechanisms of variation in grain filling of maize under high planting density and varying nitrogen applicate rate

Frontiers in Nutrition, 2022
Grain filling is a critical process for achieving a high grain yield in maize (Zea mays L.), which can be improved by optimal combination with genotype and nitrogen (N) fertilization.

Variations in the Vascular Bundle and Fiber Structure during the Stem Development of Rattan (Calamus caesius Blume)

Forests, 2023
Calamus caesius is one of the most well-known commercial climbing palm species across the world. A comprehensive understanding of the growth-dependent variation in microstructure and polymer distribution can provide fundamental information to guide its end-use applications. In this study, we investigated the age-wise characteristics of rattan stems and

Structural and torsional properties of the Trachycarpus fortunei palm petiole [PDF]

, 2006
The Trachycarpus fortunei palm is a good example of a palm with a large leaf blade supported by a correspondingly large petiole. The way in which the material and functional properties of the petiole interact is analysed using engineering and botanical ...

Comparative studies on stem anatomical structure of rice plants with various ploidy level

浙江大学学报. 农业与生命科学版, 2009
To investigate the effects of ploidy changes on the stem structure, by using flow cytometry (FCM), we distinguished six different ploidy materials (haploid, diploid, and triploid of line FC311 and haploid, diploid, and tetraploid of line FC322), in rice (

Characteristics of C-4 photosynthesis in stems and petioles of C-3 flowering plants [PDF]

, 2002
Most plants are known as C-3 plants because the first product of photosynthetic CO2 fixation is a three-carbon compound. C-4 plants, which use an alternative pathway in which the first product is a four-carbon compound, have evolved independently many ...

Spatial development of transport structures in apple (Malus x domestica Borkh.) fruit [PDF]

, 2015
The void network and vascular system are important pathways for the transport of gases, water and solutes in apple fruit (Malus x domestica Borkh). Here we used X-ray micro-tomography at various spatial resolutions to investigate the growth of these ...

Real-time imaging of pulvinus bending in Mimosa pudica [PDF]

, 2019
Mimosa pudica is a plant that rapidly shrinks its body in response to external stimuli. M. pudica does not perform merely simple movements, but exhibits a variety of movements that quickly change depending on the type of stimuli.
