The Role of the Xylem in Oxytetracycline Translocation within Citrus Trees

open access: yesAntibiotics, 2020
Antibiotics have been successfully used to control plant diseases for more than fifty years. Recently, oxytetracycline and streptomycin have been approved for the treatment of Huanglongbing, which is threatening the citrus industry in many regions ...

Foliar Calcium Absorption by Tomato Plants: Comparing the Effects of Calcium Sources and Adjuvant Usage

open access: yesPlants, 2023
The deficiency of calcium (Ca) reduces the quality and shelf life of fruits. In this scenario, although foliar spraying of Ca2+ has been used, altogether with soil fertilization, as an alternative to prevent deficiencies, little is known regarding its ...

Dynamics of natural killer cell function upon recurrent stimulation

open access: yesBiotechnology Progress, EarlyView.
Weekly stimulation of peripheral blood‐derived NK cells with engineered K562 feeder cells resulted in two distinct growth phases, shifting around Day 21–26. Cells in growth phase 2 exhibited slower growth, reduced metabolic activity, and lower cytotoxicity than cells from growth phase 1, which has implications for NK cell biomanufacturing.

Tracheid wall thickness and lumen diameter in different axial and radial locations in cultivated Larix sibirica trunks

open access: yesSilva Fennica, 2012
In Larix trunks the properties of wood differ clearly radially, but the axial differences are smaller as well as being less studied. Wood anatomy is in particular poorly studied, even though all other wood properties derive from cell and tissue structure.

The Application of Carbon Dots in Crops for Sustainable Agriculture

open access: yesChemistryEurope, EarlyView.
Carbon dots serve as versatile nanoagents across the crop life cycle. They promote plant growth and photosynthesis, enhance resilience to biotic and abiotic stresses, aid in postharvest preservation, and enable sensitive detection of contaminants.

Coping With Water Limitation: Hormones That Modify Plant Root Xylem Development

open access: yesFrontiers in Plant Science, 2020
Periods of drought, that threaten crop production, are expected to become more prominent in large parts of the world, making it necessary to explore all aspects of plant growth and development, to breed, modify and select crops adapted to such conditions.

Actin Isovariant ACT2‐Mediated Cellular Auxin Homeostasis Regulates Lateral Root Organogenesis in Arabidopsis thaliana

open access: yesCytoskeleton, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Lateral root (LR) organogenesis is regulated by cellular flux of auxin within pericycle cells, which depends on the membrane distribution and polar localization of auxin carrier proteins. The correct distribution of auxin carrier proteins relies on the intracellular trafficking of these proteins aided by filamentous actin as a track.

Specific Fluorescence in Situ Hybridization (FISH) Test to Highlight Colonization of Xylem Vessels by Xylella fastidiosa in Naturally Infected Olive Trees (Olea europaea L.)

open access: yesFrontiers in Plant Science, 2018
The colonization behavior of the Xylella fastidiosa strain CoDiRO, the causal agent of olive quick decline syndrome (OQDS), within the xylem of Olea europaea L. is still quite controversial.

Soil Moisture Levels Affect the Anatomy and Mechanical Properties of Basil Stems (Ocimum basilicum L.)

open access: yesPlants, 2021
As plants would benefit from adjusting and optimizing their architecture to changing environmental stimuli, ensuring a strong and healthy plant, it was hypothesized that different soil moisture levels would affect xylem and collenchyma development in ...

Interaction Between Actin and Microtubules During Plant Development

open access: yesCytoskeleton, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The dynamic interaction between actin filaments (AFs) and microtubules (MTs) plays a crucial role in regulating key developmental and physiological processes in plant cells, particularly in the formation of specialized cell types with distinct shapes and functions, such as pollen tubes, trichomes, and leaf epidermal cells.
