Effects of light and temperature on the monoterpenes of peppermint.
Alice J. Burbott,W.David Loomis +1 more
TL;DR: Peppermint (Mentha piperita L.) was grown in a growth chamber under several combinations of temperature and illumination, and the monoterpenes of each leaf pair were analyzed by gas chromatography, suggesting that the oxidation-reduction level of the monoterspenes reflects the oxidizing state of the respiratory coenzymes of the terpene-producing cells.
Journal ArticleDOI
Antioxidant responses of tolerant and sensitive barley cultivars to boron toxicity
TL;DR: The data suggest that, boron toxicity induced membrane damage in barley leaves, do not involve active oxygen species and antioxidant enzyme activity is not a critical factor in borons toxicity tolerance mechanism.
Journal ArticleDOI
Functional analyses of nanoparticle toxicity: A comparative study of the effects of TiO2 and Ag on tomatoes (Lycopersicon esculentum)
TL;DR: Methods to test the phytotoxicity of two distinctly different NPs, one aerosol (nano-TiO2) and the other colloidal silver (AgNP), by specifically considering their tendencies to agglomerate and form precipitates are developed.
Journal ArticleDOI
Starch and the Control of Kernel Number in Maize at Low Water Potentials
TL;DR: The results indicate that young embryos abort when the sugar stream is interrupted sufficiently to deplete starch during early ovary development, and this abortion results in a loss of mature seeds and fruits.

A Phosphate Transporter from the Root Endophytic Fungus Piriformospora indica Plays a Role in Phosphate Transport to the Host Plant
Vikas Yadav,Manoj Kumar,Deepak Kumar Deep,Hemant Kumar,Ruby Sharma,Takshashila Tripathi,Narendra Tuteja,Ajay K. Saxena,Atul Kumar Johri +8 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors reported the cloning and functional analysis of a gene encoding a phosphate transporter from the root endophytic fungus Piriformospora indica, which can be grown axenically.
