Nitrogen-fixing root nodules are plant organs specialised for symbiotic transfer of nitrogen and carbon between microsymbiont host. The organisation assimilation, storage transport processes is partitioned at the subcellular tissue levels, in distinctive patterns depending on partners. In this review, recent advances understanding actinorhizal nodule assimilation presented. New findings indicate that Frankia within Datisca glomerata (Presl.) Baill. carries out both primary biosynthesis...
The intensive use of groundwater in agriculture under the current climate conditions leads to acceleration soil salinization. Given that almond is a salt-sensitive crop, selection salt-tolerant rootstocks can help maintain productivity salinity stress. Selection for tolerant at an early growth stage reduce investment time and resources. However, salinity-sensitive markers tolerance mechanisms species assist this process are largely unknown. We established microscopy-based approach...
Many protein-coding genes identified by genome sequencing remain without functional annotation or biological context. Here we define a novel gene, Nmf9, based on forward genetic screen for neurological function. ENU-induced and genome-edited null mutations in mice produce deficits vestibular function, fear learning circadian behavior, which correlated with Nmf9 expression inner ear, amygdala, suprachiasmatic nuclei. Homologous from unicellular organisms invertebrate animals predict...
Understanding the mechanisms of stress tolerance in diverse species is needed to enhance crop performance under conditions such as high salinity. Plant roots, particular grafted agricultural crops, can function a boundary against external stresses order maintain plant fitness. However, limited information exists for salinity responses woody and their rootstocks. Pistachio (Pistacia spp.) tree nut with relatively well genetic heterogeneity. In this study, we used microscopy-based approach...
Abstract A fully split shell in pistachio ( Pistacia vera ) is a trait that preferred by consumers and criterion evaluating the grade of nut. However, while expanding kernel has been hypothesized to provide physical force needed for split, mechanisms control remains unknown. Furthermore, it intriguing how shell, or endocarp, splits at suture ridge when there no clear dehiscence zone. The objectives this study were 1) identify traits associated with fruit high rate cultivar Golden Hills...
