Canary Island date palms (Phoenix canariensis) have been planted as a landscaping feature plant throughout warm, temperate, and subtropical climates. The physical amenity provisioning of this species (shade effects, microclimate amelioration, water usage, etc.) has so far not systematically assessed. This paper reports on temperature humidity measurements in both suburban rural location SE Aust...

Plant development is amazingly plastic — for example, identical pine seeds can give rise to a majestic tree in a forest or a scraggly bush on a rocky cliff. How is plant growth and development regulated so as to be capable of achieving such dramatically different endpoints? One factor that has emerged as a key regulator of plant form is gibberellin (GA; see Figure 1 inset for the chemical struc...

Brassinosteroids (BRs) regulate important agronomic traits in rice, including plant height, leaf angle, and grain size. However, the underlying mechanisms remain not fully understood. We previously showed that GSK2, the central negative regulator of BR signaling, targets DLT, the GRAS family protein, to regulate BR responses. Here, we identified Ovate Family Protein 1 (OFP1) as a DLT interactin...

various plant organ segments including segments from roots (root tip, and root collar), stems, leaves, and also seeds of several hyoscyamus species (i.e. h. pusillus, h. arachnoideus, annual and biennial h. niger from two distinct geographical regions) were cultured on ms media with various growth regulator combinations, to assess the ability of flower production. statistical assessments showed...

Purpose. To improve the technology of grain sorghum cultivation by detecting influence microfertilizers and plant growth regulators on its productivity.
 Methods. The research was conducted at field Bila Tserkva National Agrarian University, which is located in zone unstable humidification Right-Bank Forest-Steppe, years 2019–2021. Grain hybrids ‘Brigga’ ‘Yutami’ were used for experiment.&...

in this research, the effect of using vermicompost on growth rate, fertility and characteristics oftomatoes has been studied. four vermicompost: soil mixture were supplied with ratios of 1:1, 1:2, 1:3, and 1:4 and also four different beds were provided. total of 24 small globe tomato plants were tested and in each bed combination, six tomato plants were embedded. rate of growth and yielding of ...

Plant galactolipid synthesis on the outer envelope membranes of chloroplasts is an important biosynthetic pathway for sustained growth under conditions of phosphate (Pi) depletion. During Pi starvation, the amount of digalactosyldiacylglycerol (DGDG) is increased to substitute for the phospholipids that are degraded for supplying Pi. An increase in DGDG concentration depends on an adequate supp...

Due to their immobility, plants have developed sophisticated mechanisms to robustly monitor and appropriately respond to dynamic changes in nutrient availability. Carbon (C) and nitrogen (N) are especially important in regulating plant metabolism and development, thereby affecting crop productivity. In addition to their independent utilization, the ratio of C to N metabolites in the cell, refer...

norfolk island pine (araucaria excelsa) is belonging to araucariaceae family and is native to norfolk island in australia. this plant is a woody ornamental plant of high commercial value. since it is propagated by seed, achieving a regeneration system is one of the most important goals in this woody plant tissue culture. to evaluate the effect of cytokinins and culture media for bud induction d...

Plants have evolved an elaborate signaling network to ensure an appropriate level of immune response to meet the differing demands of developmental processes. Previous research has demonstrated that DELLA proteins physically interact with JASMONATE ZIM-DOMAIN1 (JAZ1) and dynamically regulate the interaction of the gibberellin (GA) and jasmonate (JA) signaling pathways. However, whether and how ...
