THE recently characterized plant growth inhibitor, abscisic acid1,2, has been shown to occur in the phloem sap of willow by spectropolarimetry of a purified aphid honeydew extract3. The pronounced ...

The monocot lineage-specific miR528 was previously established as a multistress regulator. However, it remains largely unclear how miR528 participates in response to salinity stress in rice. Here, we ...

Eating enough of the common fruit will lead to levels going doing by significant amount 'in eight weeks', study says ...

Synopsis Abscisic acid (ABA) prevents cotyledon opening in the dark by modulating splicing through serine/arginine-rich (SR) proteins RS40 and RS41. Light reduces ABA levels, releasing this repression ...

The study revealed: "Study participants who had the highest intake of flavonoid-rich foods, including berries, red wine, ...

前期研究发现，SVBV P6是病毒编码的致病因子，可以促进马铃薯X病毒（potato virus X， PVX）侵染本氏烟。利用PVX载体异源表达P6蛋白（PVX-P6），将PVX-P6分别接种至EV和FvRD21转基因本氏烟，验证FvRD21对P6致病因子功能的影响，发现与EV转基因本氏烟相比，FvRD21转基因本氏烟系统叶出现明显的症状延迟，PVX RNAs和蛋白的积累水平显著降低（图2a-c ...

Scientists from our top-rated Biosciences department have uncovered a key mechanism in plant roots that helps them adapt to temporary water shortages ...

为解决植物如何应对DNA损伤这一关键科学问题，研究人员围绕ABA信号通路与DNA损伤响应的关联机制展开研究。研究发现SnRK2.2/2.3激酶通过磷酸化CLC2促进其核转位，进而与DNA修复因子ADA2b互作，精确调控同源重组 (HR)修复过程。该研究揭示了ABA增强植物基因组稳定性的新机制，为作物抗逆育种提供了新靶点。
