Electroimpedance spectroscopy technology can be used to accelerate the healing of complete trees and estimate plant condition after grafting. This approach will allow sorting out low-vigor plants at early stages their development save time resources. Still, in some cases, use electrical impedance difficult due complexity equipment special measurement conditions. In this paper, we attempt overco...

Mediterranean basin and other citrus-growing areas, such as Florida or California, are among the most vulnerable regions to impacts of global warming. Therefore, citrus will be likely subjected increasing periods water scarcity combined with high temperatures that impair plant growth, development yield. In industry, grafting is used improve varietal characteristics, abiotic stress tolerance. Pr...

BACKGROUND It is commonly assumed that the aortic wall deforms uniformly and has uniform wall thickness about the circumference. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the aortic wall motion and thickness in the infrarenal aortic neck of patients with abdominal aortic aneurysms who were undergoing endovascular repair (EVAR) and to compare the dynamic measurements of intravascular ultrasonogr...

boron (b) toxicity is an important disorder that can limit plant growth in arid and semi-arid environments. it has been proven that use of tolerant rootstocks impede b uptake or transport to the aerial portions of plants. this may alleviate b toxicity in the scion, consequently improves the tolerance to excess b in the root zone. an experiment was conducted to find the effects of b toxicity on ...

In this study, a MADS-box gene (BpMADS), which is an ortholog of AP1 from Arabidopsis, was isolated from birch (Betula platyphylla). Transgenic Arabidopsis containing a BpMADS promoter::GUS construct was produced, which exhibited strong GUS staining in sepal tissues. Ectopic expression of BpMADS significantly enhanced the flowering of tobacco (35S::BpMADS). In addition, the chloroplasts of tran...

French research on rootstocks is based two strategies: the creation of new and evaluation existing (GreffAdapt facility). The search for traits associated with drought tolerance has not yet been brought to a successful conclusion, but work continuing emphasis field experiments, measurement δ13C, consideration yield, study trait plasticity as function scion water status.
