Physiological and biochemical responses of Hypericum perforatum to salt stress and salicylic acid spraying
Salinity is one of the main obstacles to the successful production of agricultural products. Hormonal compounds such as salicylic acid (SA) as plant growth regulators can have different physiological and biochemical effects in plants under salt stress. In present research, the effects of different concentrations of sodium chloride (2, 6 and 10 dS/m) and foliar application of SA (0, 0.25 and ...
متن کاملPopulation Genomics of Daphnia pulex.
Using data from 83 isolates from a single population, the population genomics of the microcrustacean Daphnia pulex are described and compared to current knowledge for the only other well-studied invertebrate, Drosophila melanogaster These two species are quite similar with respect to effective population sizes and mutation rates, although some features of recombination appear to be different, w...
متن کاملThe ecoresponsive genome of Daphnia pulex.
We describe the draft genome of the microcrustacean Daphnia pulex, which is only 200 megabases and contains at least 30,907 genes. The high gene count is a consequence of an elevated rate of gene duplication resulting in tandem gene clusters. More than a third of Daphnia's genes have no detectable homologs in any other available proteome, and the most amplified gene families are specific to the...
متن کاملProposal to Sequence the Genome of Daphnia Pulex
Recent characterization of the complete genomic sequences of multiple eukaryotes and prokaryotes is rapidly increasing our ability to understand how genome structure evolves and how gene expression and individual performance is modified in response to environmental challenges. These advances hold the promise of making a direct connection between the genome and the phenotype of organisms in popu...
متن کاملEye movements in Daphnia pulex (De Geer).
1. The various types of eye movement exhibited by the cyclopean eye of Daphnia pulex were studied using high speed motion photography. 2. This rudimentary eye, which consists of only 22 ommatidia, can move through approximately 150 degrees in the sagittal plane and 60 degrees in the horizontal plane. 3. Four classes of eye movement were found: (1) a high speed tremor at 16 Hz with an amplitude ...
