Circadian Rhythms and the Induction of Flowering in Sinapis alba.

Cytokinin Fluxes during Floral Induction in the Long Day Plant Sinapis alba L.

Sinapis alba is a long-day (LD) plant that can be induced to flower by a single LD. A number of changes normally occurring in the meristem of plants subjected to the LD can be produced in short day by a single application of a cytokinin to the apical bud. However, flower buds are not produced indicating that evocation by the cytokinin is only partial. In this work, the cytokinin content of root...

Genome of an arbuscular mycorrhizal fungus provides insight into the oldest plant symbiosis.

The mutualistic symbiosis involving Glomeromycota, a distinctive phylum of early diverging Fungi, is widely hypothesized to have promoted the evolution of land plants during the middle Paleozoic. These arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF) perform vital functions in the phosphorus cycle that are fundamental to sustainable crop plant productivity. The unusual biological features of AMF have long fa...
