The shoot apical meristem (SAM) of higher plants comprises distinct functional zones. central zone (CZ) is located at the summit and harbors pluripotent stem cells. Stem cells undergo cell division within CZ give rise to descendants, which enter peripheral (PZ) become recruited into lateral organs. daughters that are pushed underneath form rib (RM). To unravel mechanism development, it essential know how adopt fates in SAM. Here, we show patterning floral organ primordia formation, besides...
The role of ovipositional responses the stem borer Chilo partellus (Swinhoe) in determining resistance-susceptibility three maize, Zea mays L., cultivars relation to trichome density on their leaf surfaces was investigated. studied were Inbred A (susceptible), V-37 (resistant), and ICZ-T (resistant). upper are covered with trichomes, although latter is greater than former. lower both smooth devoid trichomes. cultivar has numerous not only surface but also surface. screenhouse laboratory...
Abstract Shoot apical meristem (SAM) of higher plants is comprises three distinct functional zones. Central zone (CZ) placed at the summit and harbors pluripotent stem cells. Stem cells undergoes cell division within CZ give rise descendants which enters into surrounding peripheral (PZ), where they get recruited organs. daughters that pushed underneath form rib (RM). RM differentiate tissue vascular bundles. Understanding how PZ types essential to unravel mechanism development in plants....
The effects of different degrees stem tunneling caused by levels artificial infestation the larvae Chilo partellus (Swinhoe) on growth and yield 4 maize cultivars were studied. susceptible ‘Inbred A’ suffered much more than ICZ1‐CM, ICZ2‐CM Katumani Composite B. This influenced significantly plant all four cultivars. There was a significant negative correlation between for B, but such relationship not ICZ1‐CM ICZ2‐CM. Such differences in relationships among are due to C. plants these Résumé...

Abstract The resistance/susceptibility levels of ten maize ( Zea mays L.) cultivars to neonates and 3rd‐instar larvae Chilo partellus (Swinhoe) (Lepidoptera: Pyralidae) were measured in the field screenhouse experiments. tested were: Inbred A, Mp 704, V‐37, Population 10, Hybrid 511, Katumani Composite B, ER‐29 SVR, Poza Rica 7832, ICZ2‐CM, MMV 400. Most found susceptible based on incidence dead heart symptoms, foliar feeding stem tunnelling caused by borers both However, 400 7832 sustained...
Abstract Transcriptional control of gene expression is an exquisitely regulated process in both animals and plants. Transcription factors (TFs) the regulatory networks that drive TF genes epidermal subepidermal cell layers Arabidopsis are unexplored. Here, we identified 65 enriched shoot apical meristem (SAM). To determine type specificity different stages development, made YFP based transcriptional fusion constructs by taking a 3‐kb upstream noncoding region above translation start site....
Abstract The oviposition, larval arrest and establishment by the stem borer Chilo partellus (Swinhoe) were measured on different maize genotypes during anthesis. tested were: Inbred A (Susceptible), Mp 704, MBR-8637, MBR-8650, MBR-8668, Poza Rica 7832, ER-29 SVR, Katumani Composite B, MMV 400, Bulk CG 4141, ICZ2-CM. moths oviposited middle leaves of plant neonate larvae moved to leaf sheaths ear husks feed (arrest). As they grew older, invaded stem, shanks tassel complete feeding...
