Drought Tolerance of Tissue-cultured Seedlings of Mountain Laurel (Kalmia latifolia L.) Induced by an Endophytic Actinomycete II. Acceleration of Callose Accumulation and Lignification
Colonization of host plants by microbial symbionts and avirulent parasites often elicits physiological modifications such as localized and systemic disease resistance1–4) and drought or dehydration tolerance5–7). Among such microbes, soil-inhabiting actinomycetes have attracted much attention as potential biocontrol agents in agriculture because of their ability to produce a variety of antibiot...
متن کاملNovel Epicuticular Leaf Flavonoids from Kalmia and Gaidtheria (Ericaceae)
Leaves of a number of Ericaceous plants have a thin epicuticular layer that consists mostly of triterpenes. In Kalmia angustifolia, K. latifolia and K polifolia as well as in Gaultheria procumbens and G. shallon this material also contains trace amounts of flavonoid aglycones. In Kalmia they are the 3-OMe-derivatives of four C-methyl flavones reported previously as the typical leaf-wax flavonoi...
متن کاملEpicuticular Leaf Flavonoids from Eucalyptus Species and from Kalmia latifolia
In young plants of Eucalyptus globulus the leaves are covered with a whitish epicuticular layer. This leaf wax contains small amounts of C-methylated flavones as aglycones. A novel flavone has now been identified as 5,4'-dihydroxy, 7-methoxy, 6-methyl-flavone (8-desmethyl-sideroxylin). Another minor external flavone is chrysin. On leaves of E. sieberi the flavanone pinocembrin could be detected...
متن کاملTwo New Species of Leafblight Fungi on Kalmia Latifolia
The evergreen shrub, Kalmia latifolia L., commonly known as mountain laurel, calico bush, or sheep-kill, grows widely on rocky, acid soils in the eastern United States. Whether growing in its natural habit or in cultivation, mountain laurel appears to be equally subject to attack by fungi. The following account characterizes and discusses two of these fungi. One of them has not been described p...
متن کاملInbreeding and Inbreeding Depression on Body Weight in Iranian Shal Sheep
The aim of this study was to estimate amount of inbreeding coefficient in Shal sheep and its impact on growth performance. Pedigree information and body weight at different ages (birth weight, 3 month weight, 6 month weight, 9 month weight and 12 month weight) were used from 6692 lambs from 90 rams and 1007 ewes. Data were collected on Ghazvin sheep breeding station during 1997-2013. Estimation...
