Leaf venation is diverse across plant species and has practical applications from paleobotany to modern agriculture. However, the impact of vein traits on plant performance has not yet been tested in a model system such as Arabidopsis thaliana. Previous studies analysed cotyledons of A. thaliana vein mutants and identified visible differences in their vein systems from the wild type (WT). We me...

Biogenic volatile organic compound (BVOC) emissions are expected to change substantially because of the rapid advancement of climate change in the Arctic. BVOC emission changes can feed back both positively and negatively on climate warming. We investigated the effects of elevated temperature and shading on BVOC emissions from arctic plant species Empetrum hermaphroditum, Cassiope tetragona, Be...

While many aspects of plant cell wall polymer structure are known, their spatial and temporal distribution within the stem are not well understood. Here, we studied vascular system and fiber development, which has implication for both biofuel feedstock conversion efficiency and crop yield. The subject of this study, Brachypodium distachyon, has emerged as a grass model for food and energy crop ...

Objective- The purpose of this study was to assess and describe the radiographic anatomy of the bony structures in the head of sheep. Design- Experimental study. Animals- Fifteen mature Afshari sheep. Procedures- Radiographs were made out of the head of the animals in lateral and dorsoventral views. Radiographic anatomy was analyzed with results from gross dissection of 5 specimens. Results- De...

conclusions according to the subjective and objective results, the new method used in anatomy education had a good effect on learning of anatomy and interested students in anatomy. besides, it decreased students’ stress at exam time. it can be a complementary method for conventional methods. it is very useful for those who need retraining courses. results using present method had remarkable eff...
