A stem-loop region is present at the 3' terminus of the chloroplast rbcL mRNA in all taxa surveyed to date. In spinach, this structure has been shown by others to be involved in modulating transcript stability and correct 3' terminus processing, and is a conserved feature of other flowering plant rbcL mRNAs. In Chlamydomonas reinhardtii, an analogous structure has been shown by others to serve ...

in order to evaluate phenological and morphological responses of cold tolerant chickpea genotypes to entezary culture in mashhad conditions, 81 cold tolerant chickpea accessions were cultured during growing year 2006-2007 in research farm of faculty of agriculture, ferdowsi university of mashhad. the experiment was carried out in lattice design with three replications including 9 blocks per rep...

My research on mango flowering began about five years ago. By that time, smudging, the traditional Philippine use of smoke to promote flowering, had given way to the more convenient and efficacious use of ethephon (a compound that generates ethylene in plants) and potassium nitrate sprays. Not only were mango trees in the Philippines stimulated to flower out of season with these treatments, but...

Winter wheat requires a period of low temperatures to accelerate flowering (vernalization). This requirement could make winter wheat more vulnerable to elevated global temperature via insufficient vernalization. All known vernalization genes are cloned according to qualitative variation in vernalization requirement between spring and winter wheat, but the genes controlling quantitative variatio...

Key flowering genes, FD and FD PARALOGUE (FDP) encoding bZIP transcription factors that interact with a FLOWERING LOCUS T (FT) in Arabidopsis were ectopically expressed in rice since we found AtFD and AtFDP also interact with HEADING DATE 3a (Hd3a) and RICE FLOWERING LOCUS T 1 (RFT1). Transgenic rice plants overexpressing AtFD and AtFDP caused reduction in plant height and spikelet size with de...

The physiological stage of mango maturity at harvest affects fruit quality the time it is commercialized. objective assessment remains a challenge because multiple interactions between visual aspect, physicochemical composition, and morphology fruit. This study aims to quantify optimal date guarantee cv. ‘Kent’. In this study, which took place in Korhogo northern Côte d’Ivoire, fruits were meas...

Genotype, environmental temperature, and agronomic management of parents influence seed yield in three-way cross hybrid maize production. The objective this research was to generate information on the production six hybrids their progenitors, adapted tropical lowlands. Data days to—and duration of—flowering, distance spike stigmas, five female single crosses male inbred lines were recorded for ...

In order to study the effects of irrigation and planting date on selected traits of ajowan (Carum copticum BENTH. & HOOK.F.) an experiment was conducted in two successive conducive seasons of 2009/2010 and 2010/2011 in Birjand. The experimental design was a split plot based on randomized complete block with three replications. In the present study, two irrigation treatments (irrigation terminat...
