Abstract Daytime warm temperature elicits thermomorphogenesis in Arabidopsis by stabilizing the central thermoregulator PHYTOCHROME INTERACTING transcription FACTOR 4 (PIF4), whose degradation is otherwise promoted photoreceptor and thermosensor phytochrome B. PIF4 stabilization light requires a transcriptional activator, HEMERA (HMR), abrogated when HMR’s transactivation activity impaired hmr-22 . Here, we report identification of suppressor mutant, rcb-101 , which surprisingly carries an...
Temperature control is crucial for live cell imaging, particularly in studies involving plant responses to high ambient temperatures and thermal stress. This study presents the design, development, testing of two cost-effective heating devices tailored confocal microscopy applications: an aluminum heat plate a wireless mini-heater. The plate, engineered integrate seamlessly with standard 160 mm × 110 microscope stage, supports up 36°C, suitable range non-stressful warm (e.g., 25-27°C...
Abstract While moderately elevated ambient temperatures do not trigger stress responses in plants, they substantially stimulate the growth of specific organs through a process known as thermomorphogenesis. The basic helix–loop–helix transcription factor PHYTOCHROME-INTERACTING FACTOR 4 (PIF4) plays central role regulating thermomorphogenetic hypocotyl elongation various plant species, including Arabidopsis (Arabidopsis thaliana). Although it is well that PIF4 and its co-activator HEMERA...
Microheaters have drawn extensive attention for their substantial applications in thermotherapy, gas sensors, thin film preparation, biological research, etc. In plant physiology, uncovering the mechanisms by which plants sense and respond to environmental temperature fluctuations will help us better understand impact of climate change on crop yield ecosystem resilience. Currently, microheaters with long-term heating capability rarely been applied investigate thermal responses. this study,...
Paulownia is a fast-growing woody tree, native to the forests of China. It belongs family Scrophulariaceae and mainly used as source wood for furniture musical instruments. Due its nature high-quality wood, there has been growing interest in cultivation research Nepal. Growth comparison was performed by measuring shoot length vitro condition. Among two species - tomentosa (Thunb.) Steud fortuneii (Seem.) Hemsl., growth rate P. found be 0.355 cm/week while that 0.637 in-vitro conditions MS...
Abstract While moderately elevated ambient temperatures do not trigger stress responses in plants, they significantly stimulate the growth of specific organs through a process known as thermomorphogenesis. The basic helix-loop-helix transcription factor PHYTOCHROME-INTERACTING FACTOR 4 (PIF4) plays central role regulating thermomorphogenetic hypocotyl elongation various plant species, including Arabidopsis thaliana . Although it is well that PIF4 promotes thermosensory by activating genes...
