Although the blue light photoreceptors cryptochromes mediate expression of genes related to reactive oxygen species, whether cryptochrome 1a (cry1a) regulates local and long-distance signaling water deficit in tomato (Solanum lycopersicum L.) is unknown. Thus cry1a mutant its wild-type (WT) were reciprocally grafted (WT/WT; cry1a/cry1a; WT/cry1a; cry1a/WT; as scion/rootstock) or grown on their ...

A superimposed experiment was conducted at Gircha, Chencha district, Southern Ethiopia to determine the effect of four rootstocks on leaf nutrient concentration five apple cultivars. The laid out in a randomized complete block design (RCBD) with three replications. Data concentrations were collected and analyzed using SAS software. Results revealed that scion-rootstock interaction significantly...

ABSTRACT Considering the cashew tree’s relevance and limitations imposed by salinity stress in semi-arid regions, use of alternatives capable mitigating harmful effects due to is great importance production sector. The grafted plants, especially with rootstock made tolerant materials, influences accumulation toxic ions leaves seedlings. Thus, objective this work was evaluate morphophysiological...

Electroimpedance spectroscopy technology can be used to accelerate the healing of complete trees and estimate plant condition after grafting. This approach will allow sorting out low-vigor plants at early stages their development save time resources. Still, in some cases, use electrical impedance difficult due complexity equipment special measurement conditions. In this paper, we attempt overco...

Mediterranean basin and other citrus-growing areas, such as Florida or California, are among the most vulnerable regions to impacts of global warming. Therefore, citrus will be likely subjected increasing periods water scarcity combined with high temperatures that impair plant growth, development yield. In industry, grafting is used improve varietal characteristics, abiotic stress tolerance. Pr...

boron (b) toxicity is an important disorder that can limit plant growth in arid and semi-arid environments. it has been proven that use of tolerant rootstocks impede b uptake or transport to the aerial portions of plants. this may alleviate b toxicity in the scion, consequently improves the tolerance to excess b in the root zone. an experiment was conducted to find the effects of b toxicity on ...

In this study, a MADS-box gene (BpMADS), which is an ortholog of AP1 from Arabidopsis, was isolated from birch (Betula platyphylla). Transgenic Arabidopsis containing a BpMADS promoter::GUS construct was produced, which exhibited strong GUS staining in sepal tissues. Ectopic expression of BpMADS significantly enhanced the flowering of tobacco (35S::BpMADS). In addition, the chloroplasts of tran...

French research on rootstocks is based two strategies: the creation of new and evaluation existing (GreffAdapt facility). The search for traits associated with drought tolerance has not yet been brought to a successful conclusion, but work continuing emphasis field experiments, measurement δ13C, consideration yield, study trait plasticity as function scion water status.
