Temperature and photoperiod changes affect cucumber sex expression by different epigenetic regulations

BMC Plant Biology, 2018
Background Cucumbers (Cucumis sativus) are known for their plasticity in sex expression. DNA methylation status determines gene activity but is susceptible to environmental condition changes. Thus, DNA methylation-based epigenetic regulation may at least

Assessing potential risk of heavy metal exposure from consumption of home-produced vegetables by urban populations [PDF]

, 2004
We performed a risk assessment of metal exposure to population subgroups living on, and growing food on, urban sites. We modeled uptake of cadmium, copper, nickel, lead, and zinc for a selection of commonly grown allotment and garden vegetables ...
