Effects of shading on Vallisneria natans (Lour.) H. Hara growth
Effects of surface shading were measured on above- and below-ground biomass and fruit production of Vallisneria natans (Lour.) H. Hara plants grown from seed in replicated microcosm experiments, based on a control (no shading) and ...

Neurophysiological and Behavioral Responses to Music Therapy in Vegetative and Minimally Conscious States [PDF]
Assessment of awareness for those with disorders of consciousness is a challenging undertaking, due to the complex presentation of the population. Debate surrounds whether behavioral assessments provide greatest accuracy in diagnosis compared to neuro ...

Post‐Translational Modifications of TOE3 Regulate Antiviral Defense in Tobacco
CK2αL phosphorylates TOE3 and enhances its stability, while FBXL1 promotes the ubiquitination‐degradation of TOE3 via the 26S proteasome. Compared to CK2αL‐phosphorylated TOE3, nonphosphorylated TOE3 shows a much higher affinity for FBXL1 and is more susceptible to ubiquitination‐degradation, thus facilitating viral infection. The regulatory mechanisms

Combined genetic, genomic and physiological approaches to characterize flowering in Fragaria [W324] [PDF]
Flowering is a key event for production of seeds or fruits. To date, studies of this process were mainly focused on the molecular mechanisms involved in the control of flowering until now.

Florigen and Florigen‐Like Genes Regulate Temperature‐Responsive Flowering in Tomato
This study uncovers that FLOWERING LOCUS T‐Like 2 (FTL2) and SINGLE‐FLOWER TRUSS (SFT) antagonistically regulate temperature‐responsive flowering in the tomato shoot apical meristem. High temperature induces floral repressor FTL2, which directly inhibits SFT to delay short‐day floral transition, while SFT reciprocally inhibits FTL2 to promote flowering.

Sexual Dimorphism and Intersexual Differences in Resource Allocations of a Dioecious Shrub, Lindera melissifolia (Walt.) Blume [PDF]
Morphometric data were gathered to make intersexual comparisons on the morphology and reproductive resource allocation patterns of the rare, dioecious shrub, Lindera melissifolia. Females produced significantly fewer flowers and leaves than did males. No

Beyond EICA : understanding post-establishment evolution requires a broader evaluation of potential selection pressures [PDF]
Research on post-establishment evolution in nonnative plant populations has focused almost exclusively on testing the Evolution of Increased Competitive Ability (EICA) hypothesis, which posits that the lack of specialized herbivores in the invaded range ...

SP3 and DEP1 Orchestrate Panicle Architecture by Jointly Regulating APO2 Expression in Rice
The transcription factor SP3 enhances inflorescence meristem activity and interacts with the cysteine‐rich domain of DEP1. This interaction alters DEP1's subcellular localization between the plasma membrane and nucleus, and suppresses SP3‐mediated transcriptional activation of APO2.
