Hooked apex stolons and initial swelling stolons of potato plants were treated with 3 x 10-8 mol l-1 jasmonic acid (JA) to study the effect of this compound on histology, cell expansion and tissue differentiation. In hooked apex stolons, JA application increased the meristem thickness and reduced the length of the leaf primordia, whereas in initial swelling stolons narrowing of the apical regio...

Carica papaya leaf decoction, an Australian Aboriginal remedy, has been used widely for its healing capabilities against cancer, with numerous anecdotal reports. In this study we investigated its in vitro cytotoxicity on human squamous cell carcinoma cells followed by metabolomic profiling of Carica papaya leaf decoction and leaf juice/brewed leaf juice to determine the effects imparted by the ...

In recent years, many genes have been identified that are involved in the developmental processes of leaf morphogenesis. Here, I review the mechanisms of leaf shape control in a model plant, Arabidopsis thaliana, focusing on genes that fulfill special roles in leaf development. The lateral, two-dimensional expansion of leaf blades is highly dependent on the determination of the dorsoventrality ...

Social network analysis (SNA) has been used to understand the behavior of nodes which could be individuals or group of persons, events or organizations etc. Importantly, these nodes propagate in many ways and obviously contains attributes. The leaf nodes/foot soldiers posses low values of centrality measures (degree,betweenness and closeness) indicating relatively not important in comparison to...

determination of chlorophyll content and chlorophyll fluorescence has the potential needed to analyze the efficiency of photosynthesis in plants against environmental stresses, especially salinity, and its simplicity facilitates stress evaluation. in order to study the response of different photosynthetic characters to salinity stress at different sugar beet growth stages, two separate experime...
