Inflorescence Development and the Role of LsFT in Regulating Bolting in Lettuce (Lactuca sativa L.)
Lettuce (Lactuca sativa L.) is one of the most important leafy vegetable that is consumed during its vegetative growth. The transition from vegetative to reproductive growth is induced by high temperature, which has significant economic effect on lettuce production. However, the progression of floral transition and the molecular regulation of bolting are largely unknown. Here we morphologically...
متن کاملMutants of downy mildew resistance in Lactuca sativa (lettuce).
As part of our investigation of disease resistance in lettuce, we generated mutants that have lost resistance to Bremia lactucae, the casual fungus of downy mildew. Using a rapid and reliable screen, we identified 16 distinct mutants of Latuca sativa that have lost activity of one of four different downy mildew resistance genes (Dm). In all mutants, only a single Dm specificity was affected. Ge...
متن کاملInduction of Light Sensitive Dormancy in Seed of Lactuca sativa L. (Lettuce) by Patulin.
The antibiotic patiilin (I) has been reported to inhibit seed germination becauise of its toxicity (7). We considered that this butenolide (I) might induce light sensitive dormancy in seeds of lettuce because of its structural similarity to coumarin (II) and ramulosin (III), (see fig 1), which have been demonstrated to possess this biological activity (2,5,6). Possible activitv was tested in th...
متن کاملSystematic silencing of a tobacco nitrate reductase transgene in lettuce (Lactuca sativa L.).
A population of 50 independent transgenic lettuces transformed with a nitrate reductase coding sequence under the control of the 35S promoter was studied. None of them showed significantly lower nitrate levels when compared with the untransformed plants, despite the presence of nitrate reductase (NR) activity that derives from the transgene in at least four of the transformants. No repercussion...
متن کاملAntioxidant properties of selected varieties of lettuce (Lactuca sativa L.) commercially available in Malaysia
This study aimed to determine total antioxidant and antioxidant activity of selected local varieties of lettuce (Lactuca sativa L.). Five varieties (iceberg, butterhead, romaine, green coral and red coral) were subjected to DPPH radical scavenging activity and ferric reducing antioxidant power assay (FRAP) assays for determination of antioxidant activity. Total phenolic content and total flavon...
