Poplar demand.

چکیده
Trichloroethylene (TCE) is a common industrial solvent that poses a particular pollution problem in groundwater; while TCE disappears from surface water within a few weeks, groundwater contamination can take months or years to degrade. Humans have not conclusively been shown to develop cancer in response to TCE exposure, but rats and mice exposed to TCE have an increased incidence of liver and lung cancers.

Influence of evaporative demand on aquaporin expression and root hydraulics of hybrid poplar.
When light levels and evaporative demand increase, dynamic physiological changes in roots may be required to restore the water balance at the whole plant level. We hypothesized that a dynamic increase in root hydraulic conductance (L(P)) and aquaporin (AQP) expression could moderate the transpiration-induced drop in water potential (Ψ), allowing continued gas exchange in hybrid poplar (Populus ...
متن کاملBreeding strategies for the 21st Century: domestication of poplar
Introduction The goal of plantation culture is the economically and ecologically sustainable production of wood to meet a growing worldwide demand. At the end of the 20th Century, poplar culture has reached a fork in the road to the future, and both paths must be followed in order to achieve the goal of sustainability. One branch of the road leads to poplar forestry, where natural or extensivel...
متن کاملStimulation of hybrid poplar growth in petroleum-contaminated soils through oxygen addition and soil nutrient amendments.
Hybrid poplar trees (Populus deltoides x nigra DN34) were grown in a green-house using hydrocarbon-contaminated soil from a phytoremediation demonstration site in Health, Ohio. Two independent experiments investigated the effect of nutrient addition on poplar growth and the importance of oxygen addition to root development and plant growth. Biomass measurements, poplar height, and leaf color we...
متن کاملMetabolic flux analysis of plastidic isoprenoid biosynthesis in poplar leaves emitting and nonemitting isoprene.
The plastidic 2-C-methyl-D-erythritol-4-phosphate (MEP) pathway is one of the most important pathways in plants and produces a large variety of essential isoprenoids. Its regulation, however, is still not well understood. Using the stable isotope 13C-labeling technique, we analyzed the carbon fluxes through the MEP pathway and into the major plastidic isoprenoid products in isoprene-emitting an...

This research was conducted to measure quantitative and qualitative characteristics of trees and to determine amount of annual increment for poplar and plane, specially their volume and wood production beside Zayanderud dam. Two plantation areas with 3×3 meters spacing were selected for sampling after field survey. A 30-years-old poplar and a 30-years-old plane stand. In each stand, five tree l...
متن کاملTranspirational demand affects aquaporin expression in poplar roots
Isohydric plants tend to maintain a water potential homeostasis primarily by controlling water loss via stomatal conductance. However, there is accumulating evidence that plants can also modulate water uptake in a dynamic manner. The dynamics of water uptake are influenced by aquaporin-mediated changes in root hydraulics. Most studies in this area have been conducted on herbaceous plants, and l...
