NOTES ON THE STRAWBERRY LEAF PETIOLE GALL (DIASTROPHUS FRAGARIÆ BEUTM.)

Notes on Cases of Gall-Stone

In the Johns Hopkin's Hospital Reports for 1890, a paper by Dr Osier appeared " On Fever of Hepatic Origin, particularly the Intermittent Pyrexia associated with Gall-stones," and in this paper Dr Osier states that in the class of case he is describing the characteristic pain of gall-stones may be absent In the Annals of Surgery for August 1895, I drew attention to the fact that absence of pain...

The effect of fruit competition and leaf area on fruit size of strawberry

Nutrient Deficiencies in the Strawberry Leaf and Fruit.

Previous investigational work on the nutrition on the strawberry has been concerned largely with the relationship of soil and fertilizer treatment to growth and yield (5). While these studies have increased greatly the knowledge of the fertilizer requirements of the strawberry, they did not describe the symptoms of mineral deficiencies nor show the mineral composition of the plant and fruit. It...

BLADE-ON-PETIOLE-dependent signaling controls leaf and floral patterning in Arabidopsis.

NONEXPRESSOR OF PR GENES1 (NPR1) is a key regulator of the plant defense response known as systemic acquired resistance. Accumulation of the signal molecule salicylic acid (SA) leads to a change in intracellular redox potential, enabling NPR1 to enter the nucleus and interact with TGACG sequence-specific binding protein (TGA) transcription factors, which in turn bind to SA-responsive elements i...

A Strawberry KNOX Gene Regulates Leaf, Flower and Meristem Architecture

The KNOTTED-LIKE HOMEODOMAIN (KNOX) genes play a central role in maintenance of the shoot apical meristem. They also contribute to the morphology of simple and compound leaves. In this report we characterize the FaKNOX1 gene from strawberry (Fragaria spp.) and demonstrate its function in trasgenic plants. The FaKNOX1 cDNA was isolated from a cultivated strawberry (F.×ananassa) flower EST librar...
