Study of factors affecting direct shoot regeneration of pear (Pyrus communis L.)
Conventional methods of pear breeding, largely based on intra- and inter-specific hybridization, are difficult because pear is highly heterozygous, polygenic and has a long juvenile period. Genetic improvements of pear cultivars are possible through induction of mutations and gene transfer by genetic engineering. A general prerequisite for these approaches is to establish an efficient plant reg...
متن کاملControls over leaf and litter calcium concentrations among temperate trees
Four-fold variation in leaf-litter Ca concentration among 14 tree species growing in a common garden in central Poland was linked to variation in soil pH, exchangeable Ca, soil base saturation, forest floor turnover rates, and earthworm abundance. Given the potential importance of tissue Ca to biogeochemical processes, in this study we investigated potential controls on leaf Ca concentrations u...
متن کاملThe Enhancement of Drought Stress Tolerance of Kentucky Bluegrass by Prohexadione-Calcium Treatment
Kentucky bluegrass (Poa pratensis L.) is one of the most widely used turfgrasses for home lawns, golf courses, parks, and athletic fields in temperate climates. Oxidative stress caused by drought stress is a major limiting factor for grass cultivation in arid and semi-arid regions. The objective of this study was to investigate whether Prohexadione-Calcium (Pro-Ca) may play a role in promoting ...
متن کاملPear fruit growth under regulated de®cit irrigation in container-grown trees
The effect of regulated de®cit irrigation (RDI) on fruit growth was studied for pear trees (Pyrus communis L. `Barlett') grown in 120 l isolated containers. Two irrigation treatments were applied in consecutive seasons (1996 and 1997) but on different trees each year. The Control treatment was watered to non-stress conditions using stem water potential (Cstem) and Penman ETo as a guide for the ...
متن کاملIN VIVO GIBBERELLIN A9 METABOLISM BY AZOSPIRILLUM SP. IN dy DWARF RICE MUTANT SEEDLINGS
Azospirillum sp. are bacteria beneficial to inoculated plants, and the effect is partially attributed to gibberel lin production. Deutero-labelled GA9 was fed to dy mutant rice-dwarf seedlings inoculated with A. lipoferum or A. brasilense and/or treated with Prohexadione-Ca, an inhibitor of late steps in gibberellin biosynthesis. According to the shoot growth response, the mutant showed the abi...
