Xyloglucan is released by plants and promotes soil particle aggregation
Soil is a crucial component of the biosphere and is a major sink for organic carbon. Plant roots are known to release a wide range of carbon-based compounds into soils, including polysaccharides, but the functions of these are not known in detail. Using a monoclonal antibody to plant cell wall xyloglucan, we show that this polysaccharide is secreted by a wide range of angiosperm roots, and rela...
متن کاملBiosensor for volatiles released by damaged plants
One of the most crucial problems in biological or biotechnical plant protection is the timing of starting an application. The proposed biosensor measuring overall degree of plant damage is a useful tool for solving the problem. If plants are damaged, for instance by cuts made artificially or by biting or chewing insects, volatile organic compounds (VOCs) will be released to a higher extent and ...
متن کاملBinary Tomography Reconstruction by Particle Aggregation
This paper presents a novel reconstruction algorithm for binary tomography based on the movement of particles. Particle Aggregate Reconstruction Technique (PART) supposes that pixel values are particles, and that the particles can diffuse through the image, sticking together in regions of uniform pixel value known as aggregates. The algorithm is tested on four phantoms of varying sizes and numb...
متن کاملMeasuring particle aggregation rates by light scattering
When colloidal particles are suspended in a liquid, the particle suspension can be stable or unstable. Particles in a stable suspension are dispersed individually. In an unstable suspension, particles aggregate. This means that particles stick to each other, first they form doublets, and later larger aggregates. When there are only small aggregates, one refers to early stages of the aggregation...
متن کاملXyloglucan endotransglycosylase, a new wall-loosening enzyme activity from plants.
1. Cell-free extracts of all plants tested contained a novel enzyme activity (xyloglucan endotransglycosylase, XET) able to transfer a high-Mr portion from a donor xyloglucan to a suitable acceptor such as a xyloglucan-derived nonasaccharide (Glc4Xyl3GalFuc; XG9). 2. A simple assay for the enzyme, using [3H]XG9 and based on the ability of the [3H]polysaccharide product to bind to filter paper, ...
