AtAMT1 gene expression and NH4+ uptake in roots of Arabidopsis thaliana: evidence for regulation by root glutamine levels.

Suman Rawat, +5 more
- 01 Jul 1999 - 
TL;DR: The mechanisms involved in regulating high-affinity ammonium (NH4+) uptake and the expression of the AtAMT1 gene encoding a putative high-Affinity NH4+ transporter were investigated in the roots of Arabidopsis thaliana and data suggest that high cytoplasmic [NH4+] may inhibit NH4- influx.
Journal ArticleDOI

Temperature-driven plasticity in growth cessation and dormancy development in deciduous woody plants: a working hypothesis suggesting how molecular and cellular function is affected by temperature during dormancy induction.

Karen K. Tanino, +4 more
- 27 Feb 2010 - 
TL;DR: The existence of two separate, but temporally connected processes that contribute to dormancy development in some deciduous woody plant: one driven byPhotoperiod and influenced by moderate temperatures; the other driven by abiotic stresses, such as low temperature in combination with long photoperiods is proposed.
Journal ArticleDOI

Enhanced assimilation rate and water use efficiency with latitude through increased photosynthetic capacity and internal conductance in balsam poplar (Populus balsamifera L.)

Raju Y. Soolanayakanahally, +4 more
- 01 Dec 2009 - 
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors examined variation in height increment and ecophysiological traits in a range-wide collection of Populus balsamifera L. populations from 21 provenances, during unconstrained growth in a greenhouse.
Journal ArticleDOI

Genomic diversity, population structure, and migration following rapid range expansion in the Balsam Poplar, Populus balsamifera

Stephen R. Keller, +4 more
- 01 Mar 2010 - 
TL;DR: It is suggested that an in‐depth knowledge of nucleotide diversity following expansion requires sampling within multiple populations, and the utility of combining insights from different data types in population genomic studies is highlighted.
Journal ArticleDOI

Climate-driven local adaptation of ecophysiology and phenology in balsam poplar, Populus balsamifera L. (Salicaceae).

Stephen R. Keller, +6 more
- 01 Jan 2011 - 
TL;DR: The results suggest that as this widespread forest tree species expanded its range since the end of the last glacial maximum, it evolved rapidly in response to geographically variable selection.
