To investigate the physiological responses of poplars to amino acids as sole nitrogen (N) sources, Populus × canescens (Ait.) Smith plants were supplied with one three fertilizers (NH4NO3, phenylalanine (Phe) or mixture NH4NO3 and Phe) in sand culture. A larger root system, decreased leaf size CO2 assimilation rate was observed Phe- versus NH4NO3-treated poplars. Consistently, a greater biomass shoot growth detected Phe-supplied Decreased enzymatic activities nitrate reductase (NR),...
In a diversity panel of 96 rose genotypes, variation in the capacity to form calluses on leaf explants vitro was investigated, and genome-wide association study (GWAS) performed identify genetic factors associated with callus formation. Calluses were induced from wounded leaflets two media differing their plant growth regulator composition. Significant differences between genotypes observed size first callus-inducing medium (CIM1, containing 10.7 µM naphthylene acetic acid) using 0–4 scale,...
Shoot organogenesis is an essential step for genetic engineering and the study of developmental processes in roses. Several adventitious shoot regeneration protocols have been established, but number responding cultivars very limited. Furthermore, large differences capacity between genotypes were reported rendering many as recalcitrant regeneration. Therefore, knowledge about complexity genes influencing this trait would be helpful optimising protocols. Previously we analysed association...
