around the world for these traits. Peach is particularly amenable for forward genetic studies because it has a small genome (approximately half the size of the P. trichocarpa genome) with little duplication history, is self-fertile, has a generation time as short as 2–4 yr and significant genomic resources are available (Shulaev et al., 2008). Recent work has demonstrated the utility of peach t...

Abstract Cultivar Barangan is one of the famous banana plants that has good taste and price. The disadvantages this susceptible to Fusarium disease. Tissue culture techniques ways propagation for plant. This study aimed determine effective concentration benzyl amino purines (BAP) indole-3 acetic acid (IAA) optimal multiple bud clumps (MBC) induction in explants Merah banana. Research was carrie...

Fatty acid esterification of budesonide (BUD) has previously been documented in vitro as well as in large airway tissues after in vivo administration. This reversible esterification has the potential to prolong the anti-inflammatory effect of BUD and improve its airway selectivity. In the present study we characterized the plasma and tissue kinetics of BUD in the rat after inhalation and intrav...

An in vitro mass propagation protocol was developed for Gerbera (Gerbera jamesonii Bolus) var. orange using flower bud explants. The young (7 days) explants were found to be suitable culture and highest (100%) callus induction obtained MS medium supplemented with 5.0 mg/l BAP 1.0 NAA. maximum shoot regeneration (95%) the number of shoots (10) observed 6.0 0.3 multiplication frequency (60) only ...

Many processes have been described in the control of shoot branching. Apical dominance is defined as the control exerted by the shoot tip on the outgrowth of axillary buds, whereas correlative inhibition includes the suppression of growth by other growing buds or shoots. The level, signaling, and/or flow of the plant hormone auxin in stems and buds is thought to be involved in these processes. ...

Alternate bearing (AB) is the process in fruit trees by which cycles of heavy yield (ON crop) one year are followed by a light yield (OFF crop) the next. Heavy yield usually reduces flowering intensity the following year. Despite its agricultural importance, how the developing crop influences the following year's return bloom and yield is not fully understood. It might be assumed that an 'AB si...

A recessive ascospore mutant of Neurospora tetrasperma, named bud, was isolated from a wild-collected heterokaryotic strain with four different nuclear components. bud segregates as a single mendelian gene. When bud is homozygous, meiosis is apparently normal but postmeiotic events are not. Abnormal orientation of spindles at the postmeiotic mitosis often results in failed pair-wise association...

The KNR4 gene, originally isolated by complementation of a K9 killer-toxin-resistant mutant displaying reduced levels of both 1,3-beta-glucan and 1,3-beta-glucan synthase activity, was recloned from a YCp50 genomic library as a suppressor of Saccharomyces cerevisiae calcofluor-white-hypersensitive (cwh) mutants. In these mutants, which were characterized by increased chitin levels, the suppress...
