FACTORS AFFECTING COLD RESISTANCE IN PLANTS

Factors Affecting Cold Hardiness in Grapevines

Cold resistance in plants: A mystery unresolved

Herbaceous temperate plants are capable of developing freezing tolerance when they are exposed to low nonfreezing temperatures. Acquired freezing tolerance involves extensive reprogramming of gene expression and metabolism. Recent full-genome transcript profiling studies, in combination with mutational and transgenic plant analyses, have provided a snapshot of the complex transcriptional networ...

Factors Affecting Agrobacterium-mediated Transformation of Plants

Plant transformation technology has become a versatile platform for cultivar improvement as well as for studying gene function in plants. The development of an efficient method for genetic transformation is a prerequisite for the application of molecular biology to the improvement of a given crop species. Agrobacterium-mediated genetic transformation is the dominant technology used for the prod...

Factors affecting susceptibility and resistance to tuberculosis.

Background: Susceptibility to disease after infection by Mycobacterium tuberculosis is influenced by environmental and host genetic factors. Vitamin D metabolism leads to activation of macrophages and restricts the intracellular growth of M tuberculosis. This effect may be influenced by polymorphisms at three sites in the vitamin D receptor (VDR) gene. We investigated the interaction between se...
