Internode elongation and strobili production of Humulus lupulus cultivars in response to local strain sensing

Inhibitors of nitric oxide production from hops (Humulus lupulus L.).

Nitric oxide (NO) plays an important role in many inflammatory responses and is also involved in carcinogenesis. In the present study, we investigated the inhibitory effect of extracts from Humulus lupulus L. on both the production of NO and the expression of inducible NO synthase (iNOS) in mouse macrophage RAW 264.7 cells. The production of NO was induced by a combination of lipopolysaccharide...

Dynamics of internode and stem elongation in three cultivars of maize

The kinetics of elongation of individual internodes, the peduncle and panicle of maize were studied in field experiments in Gatton (Australia) using two tropical cultivars, and compared to similar data previously collected in Grignon (France) on a temperate cultivar. Data for phytomer initiation and organ extension and appearance were related to thermal time calculated from the temperature in t...

Predicting Offspring Performance in Hop (Humulus lupulus L

J. Am. Soc. Brew. Chem. 68(3):125-131, 2010 Genetic information for male and female hop accessions is limited, hampering parental selection to maximize offspring productivity. Our objective was to determine whether amplified fragment length polymorphism (AFLP)derived genetic distance (GDmm) estimates and coancestry estimates from pedigrees (GSped) between parental pairs could be used to predict...
