Tangent algorithm for photogravitropic balance in plants and Phycomyces blakesleeanus: Roles for EHB1 and NPH3 of Arabidopsis thaliana
(Elsevier Gmbh, Munich, 2021)
Plant organs that are exposed to continuous unilateral light reach in the steady-state a photogravitropic bending angle that results from the mutual antagonism between the photo- and gravitropic responses. To characterize ...
Evaluation of tansy essential oil as a potential "green" alternative for gypsy moth control
(Springer Heidelberg, Heidelberg, 2020)
The development of "green" alternatives to chemical pesticides could play a crucial role in integrated pest management (IPM). Their use is considered either as a substitution for or in addition to hazardous synthetic ...
Nitrate inhibits primary root growth by reducing accumulation of reactive oxygen species in the root tip in Medicago truncatula
(Elsevier France-Editions Scientifiques Medicales Elsevier, Issy-Les-Moulineaux, 2020)
In Medicago truncatula, nitrate, acting as a signal perceived by NITRATE TRANSPORTER1/PEPTIDE TRANSPORTER FAMILY 6.8 (MtNPF6.8), inhibits primary root growth through a reduction of root cell elongation. Since reactive ...
Identification and first insights into the structure of chitin from the endemic freshwater demosponge Ochridaspongia rotunda (Arndt, 1937)
(Elsevier, Amsterdam, 2020)
Studies on the identification, properties and function of chitin in sponges (Porifera), which are recognized as the first multicellular organisms on Earth, continue to be of fundamental scientific interest. The occurrence ...
Multiscale Entropy Analysis: Application to Cardio-Respiratory Coupling
(MDPI, Basel, 2020)
It is known that in pathological conditions, physiological systems develop changes in the multiscale properties of physiological signals. However, in real life, little is known about how changes in the function of one of ...
Liposomal integration method for assessing antioxidative activity of water insoluble compounds towards biologically relevant free radicals: example of avarol
(Taylor & Francis Ltd, Abingdon, 2020)
The liposomal integration method, in conjunction with electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) spectroscopy, has been presented for the investigation of antioxidant activity of selected water-insoluble compound towards ...
Isopiestic Determination of Osmotic and Activity Coefficients of the {yNaH(2)PO(4) + (1-y)Na2HPO4}(aq) System at T=298.15 K
(Amer Chemical Soc, Washington, 2020)
Isopiestic measurements have been made for aqueous solutions of the common sodium cation mixtures of NaH2PO4 and Na2HPO4 at T = 298.15 +/- 0.01 K, at NaH2PO4 ionic strength fractions y = (0, 0.24851, 0.49862, 0.74544, and ...
Isopiestic determination of the osmotic and activity coefficients of {yK(2)HPO(4) + (1-y)KH2PO4}(aq) at T=298.15 K
(Academic Press Ltd- Elsevier Science Ltd, London, 2020)
Isopiestic measurements have been made at 55 compositions of the {yK(2)HPO(4) + (1 - y)KH2PO4}(aq) system at T = (298.15 +/- 0.01) K, 11 for each of the limiting binary solutions and 33 for mixture compositions at K2HPO4 ...
Toxic, Oviposition Deterrent and Oxidative Stress Effects of Thymus vulgaris Essential Oil against Acanthoscelides obtectus
(MDPI, Basel, 2020)
Simple Summary Compounds of botanical origin, including essential oils (EOs), which coevolved as plant defense mechanism against herbivores and pathogens have been proposed as a promising strategy for post-harvest control ...
Leaf Soluble Sugars and Free Amino Acids as Important Components of Abscisic Acid-Mediated Drought Response in Tomato
(MDPI, Basel, 2020)
Water deficit has a global impact on plant growth and crop yield. Climate changes are going to increase the intensity, duration and frequency of severe droughts, particularly in southern and south-eastern Europe, elevating ...
