Vitis vinifera L. plants were grown in containers and each plant's single shoot was orientated upwards or downwards. Some plants were trained first upwards, then downwards, then again upwards (N-shape...
The purpose of this study was to examine the relationship between changes in cerebral blood-flow velocity and performance on a speeded shoot/don't-shoot task. Brain activity as indicated by cerebral b...
Aseptically excised shoot apices from Dianthus caryophyllus were frozen to -196 degrees C and subsequently thawed to room temperature. Survival rates as high as 33 percent, determined by callus format...
Plants of Populus euramericana (Dode) Guinier Robusta were grown in sub-irrigated, gravel-filled containers under conditions of constant temperature and irradiance. Lengths of leaves and internodes an...
Shoot tip and nodal segment explants of Holarrhena antidysenterica when cultured on MS medium containing BAP (1.0-3.0 mg/l) with NAA (0.2-1.0 mg/l) and BAP (1.0-3.0 mg/l) with Kn. (0.2-1.0 mg/l) produ...
BACKGROUND AND AIMS: It is stated in many recent publications that nitrate (NO3-) acts as a signal to regulate dry matter partitioning between the shoot and root of higher plants. Here we challenge th...
The aim of this work was to test the hypothesis that the reduced growth rate of wheat and barley that results when the roots are exposed to NaCl is due to inadequate turgor in the expanding cells of t...
BACKGROUND AND AIMS: In angiosperms, the shoot apical meristem produces a shoot system composed of stems, leaves and axillary buds. Podostemoideae, one of three subfamilies of the river-weed family Po...
