Stolons and rhizomes are modified stems for vegetative reproduction. While stolons grow above the ground, beneath ground. maintain genotypes of hybrids hence invaluable agricultural propagation. Diploid strawberry is a model studying stolon development. At axillary meristems, gibberellins MADS box gene SOC1 promote formation, while DELLA repressor inhibits Photoperiod regulates formation throug...

Potatoes (tubers of Solanum tuberosum) are grown and eaten in more countries than any other crop, and in the global economy they are the fourth most important crop after the three cereals maize, rice, and wheat. Therefore, research into potato tuber initiation and development, which enables our understanding and possible manipulation of these processes, is of great relevance. In addition to imp...

doi: 10.1111/j.1399-3054.2006.00741.x Calcium is believed to be transported with water in the xylem. Consistent with this proposal, low-transpiring organs such as potato Solanum tuberosum tubers are known to suffer from calcium deficiency. Although roots on tubers and stolons have been shown to supply water to tubers, there is no direct evidence for the calcium transport pathway to tubers. Both...

The gastrovascular system of colonial hydroids is central to homeostasis, yet its functional biology remains poorly understood. A probe (2′,7′-dichlorodihydrofluorescein diacetate) for reactive oxygen species (ROS) identified fluorescent objects at polyp-stolon junctions that emit high levels of ROS. A nuclear probe (Hoechst 33342) does not co-localize with these objects, while a mitochondrial ...

Abstract To uncover the nature of various kinds stolons Utricularia subgenus Polypompholyx (Lentibulariaceae) we studied branching by scanning electron microscopy, statistically investigated correlations stolon types and other traits across 56 species, evaluated seedling development process morphological aspects. Some results were compared to sister genera Pinguicula Genlisea . A key nine in is...

Caulerpa sp. is a green alga that grows naturally in Indonesian waters. shallow seas with calm currents and attaches to coral substrates or sand rock fragments. In Indonesia, this widely used as food ingredient. Contains lignan which beneficial human health, namely its ability prevent the growth of cancer cells. This study aims determine difference number carotenoids different light intensities...

Under optimum environmental conditions, tuberization in potato (Solanum tuberosum) is activated by signals that either function in the leaf or arise in this organ and move down into stolon tips to induce tuber formation. Three major signals have been identified: CYCLING DOF FACTOR1 (StCDF1) for earliness and StBEL5 mRNA and SELF-PRUNING6A (StSP6A) protein as mobile signals originating in the le...

tion, pest or disease resistance, or reseeding ability (Harris, 1987; Brink et al., 1999). Widdup et al. (1996) found Small-type white clover, Trifolium repens L., plants predominate that only 10 of 98 ecotype collections from throughout in most closely grazed pastures in the southeastern USA. The role of relative seed production in stand persistence of white clover types the eastern USA were l...
