Water Filtration Using Plant Xylem
Effective point-of-use devices for providing safe drinking water are urgently needed to reduce the global burden of waterborne disease. Here we show that plant xylem from the sapwood of coniferous trees--a readily available, inexpensive, biodegradable, and disposable material--can remove bacteria from water by simple pressure-driven filtration. Approximately 3 cm(3) of sapwood can filter water ...
متن کاملHighly conserved proteins that modify plant ethylene responses.
T he plant hormone ethylene controls many aspects of growth and development, including organ abscission, leaf and flower senescence, and, in certain species, fruit ripening. It also has a critical role in mediating many stress responses. The importance of ethylene to many fundamental processes in plants has resulted in a great deal of research on how plants perceive and respond to this hormone....
متن کاملPlant hormones: a key in clubroot development.
Clubroot disease causes gall formation on Brassica roots. A holistic approach was undertaken to understand the role of plant hormones in early clubroot symptom development in Arabidopsis. We used the CYCB1;1::GUS, DR5::GUS and ARR5::GUS constructs to assess clubroot initiation. We compared plant hormone concentration between control and infected plants, screened different hormone mutants for re...
متن کاملRoot xylem plasticity to improve water use and yield in water-stressed soybean
We tested the hypothesis that increasing the number of metaxylem vessels would enhance the efficiency of water uptake in soybean (Glycine max) and decrease the yield gap in water-limited environments. A panel of 41 soybean accessions was evaluated in greenhouse, rainout shelter, and rain-fed field environments. The metaxylem number influenced the internal capture of CO2 and improved stomatal co...
متن کاملPlant hormones
Plant hormones have been studied for more than a century because they have been heavily implicated in the control of plant growth and development. For many years, they have been considered to fall into five classes: auxins, cytokinins, gibberellins, abscisic acid and ethylene. More recently, a variety of additional classes such as brassinosteroids have been added and it seems likely that more w...
