On the left, an Arabidopsis plant is shown, with the growing shoot tip indicated by the orange line. The orange box shows a top view of the shoot tip at higher magnification, with the shoot meristem ...
This is a preview. Log in through your library . Abstract Vegetative plants of Sinapis alba, a long-day species, were induced to flower by exposure to a single 20-hr long day. RNA synthesis in the ...
WEST LAFAYETTE, Ind. – A Purdue University study has uncovered mechanisms that lead to stem cell formation and maintenance in plants. The findings may one day allow scientists to manipulate stem cell ...
• In rice, the florigens Heading Date 3a (Hd3a) and Rice Flowering Locus T 1 (RFT1), OsFD-like basic leucine zipper (bZIP) transcription factors, and Gf14 proteins assemble into florigen ...
Mutations drive evolution, but they can also be risky. New research led by plant biologists at the University of California, Davis, published Nov. 10 in Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences ...
The key to three-dimensional plant architecture lies in precise control over the orientation of cell division. Plant cells divide periclinally to grow radially—leading to thickening—while anticlinal ...
