A broad range of plant selections across the orange subfamily Aurantioideae were screened in solution and soil culture for their tolerance to low iron (Fe) stress. Young seedlings grown in soil were transferred to tubs of +Fe nutrient solution, which was later replaced after a brief period with a –Fe solution. Over several trials, ’20 white root tips were harvested periodically from the plants ...

Hereditary spastic paraplegias (HSPs, SPG1-46) are inherited neurological disorders characterized by lower extremity spastic weakness. Loss-of-function SPG20 gene mutations cause an autosomal recessive HSP known as Troyer syndrome. The SPG20 protein spartin localizes to lipid droplets and endosomes, and it interacts with tail interacting protein 47 (TIP47) as well as the ubiquitin E3 ligases at...

Troyer syndrome (MIM#275900) is an autosomal recessive form of complicated hereditary spastic paraplegia. It is characterized by progressive lower extremity spasticity and weakness, dysarthria, distal amyotrophy, developmental delay, short stature, and subtle skeletal abnormalities. It is caused by deleterious mutations in the SPG20 gene, encoding spartin, on Chromosome 13q13. Until now, six un...

A citrus spacing experiment begun in 1980 included 4 spacings, 2 varieties, and 2 rootstocks. Planting densities ranged from 150 to 360 trees per acre with spacings from 8 x 15 ft to 15 x 20 ft. 'Hamlin' and 'Valencia' Sweet orange (Citrus sinensis (L.) Osb.) trees were planted on Milam lemon ( C. jambhiri Lush) and Rusk citrange ( Poncirus trifoliata (l.) Raf. x C. sinensis) rootstocks. Trees ...
