A Periodic 4‐h Extension of the Dark Period Did Not Cause Long‐Term Changes in the Circadian Regulation of Photosynthesis and Sugar Levels in Lettuces

Plant Direct, Volume 9, Issue 4, April 2025.
ABSTRACT The photoperiod in controlled environment agriculture can be adjusted to minimize electricity consumption, even if it differs from the plant's circadian rhythm. Daily modifications of the photoperiod disrupt the plant's circadian resonance state, resulting in altered growth and yield.

Plants Used by Bapedi Traditional Healers to Treat Asthma and Related Symptoms in Limpopo Province, South Africa

Evidence-Based Complementary and Alternative Medicine, Volume 2018, Issue 1, 2018., 2018
To the best of our knowledge there are presently no ethnobotanical surveys focusing on the utilisation of herbal remedies for asthma in South Africa. The present study is therefore an attempt to fill this gap in knowledge. A total of 140 Bapedi traditional healers (THs) practicing in the Capricorn, Sekhukhune, and Waterberg districts of the Limpopo ...

A Systematic Review of Alternative Host Species of Phytophthora erythroseptica, the Major Causal Agent of Pink Rot of Potato

Plant Pathology, Volume 74, Issue 3, Page 605-640, April 2025.
The literature cites many alternative hosts of Phytophthora erythroseptica. However, evidence of host status is often insufficient, thus a polyphasic approach (morphological, molecular, histological and pathogenicity) is required. ABSTRACT Most published studies of Phytophthora erythroseptica, the major causal agent of pink rot of potato, have focused ...

Proteome Analysis of Date Palm (Phoenix dactylifera L.) under Severe Drought and Salt Stress

International Journal of Genomics, Volume 2016, Issue 1, 2016., 2016
Date palm cultivars differently tolerate salinity and drought stress. This study was carried out to study the response of date palm to severe salinity and drought based on leaf proteome analysis. Eighteen‐month‐old date palm plants were subjected to severe salt (48 g/L NaCl) and drought (82.5 g/L PEG or no irrigation) conditions for one month.

Why are some invasive plant species so successful in nutrient‐impoverished habitats in south‐western Australia: A perspective based on their phosphorus‐acquisition strategies

Functional Ecology, Volume 39, Issue 2, Page 635-652, February 2025.
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Invasive plants are a major cause of the global biodiversity crisis; it is therefore crucial to understand mechanisms that contribute to their success. South‐western Australia is a global biodiversity hotspot with extremely low soil phosphorus (P) concentrations.

Hydrogen isotope fractionation in plants with C3, C4, and CAM CO2 fixation

New Phytologist, Volume 244, Issue 2, Page 477-495, October 2024.
Summary Measurements of stable isotope ratios in organic compounds are widely used tools for plant ecophysiological studies. However, the complexity of the processes involved in shaping hydrogen isotope values (δ2H) in plant carbohydrates has limited its broader application.
