A 10 kDa acyl-CoA binding protein (ACBP) from Brassica napus enhances acyl exchange between acyl-CoA and phosphatidylcholine
Download2009
Yurchenko, O. P., Stymne, S., Stahl, U., Moloney, M. M., Nykiforuk, C. L., Weselake, R. J. , Banas, A.
The gene encoding a 10-kDa acyl-CoA-binding protein (ACBP) from Brassica napus wasover-expressed in developing seeds of Arabidopsis thaliana. Biochemical analysis of T2andT3A. thaliana seeds revealed a significant increase in polyunsaturated fatty acids (FAs)(18:2cisD9,12and 18:3cisD9,12,15) at...

Competition in Arabidopsis thaliana (L.) Heynh., behaviour of Mimosa pudica L. and a new method to characterize roots demonstrated with Helianthus annuus L..

In this dissertation, I address 5 problems in the discipline of plant ecology: two problems in plant competition, two problems in plant behaviour and one problem in the phenotyping of plant roots. First, we directly test Darwin’s competition-relatedness hypothesis with a pairwise...

Most multicellular organisms form tissue networks for transport function. What controls the formation of tissue networks is thus a central question in biology. In animals, the formation of these networks often involves extensive cell movements—movements that are instead prevented in plants by a...

Vascular networks transport water, signals and nutrients in both plants and animals; what controls the formation of these networks is thus a central question in biology. In animals, vascular network formation requires direct cell-cell communication and often cell movements, both of which are...

To form tissue networks, animal cells migrate and interact through proteins protruding from their plasma membranes. Plant cells can do neither, yet plants form vein networks. How plants do so is unclear, but the prevailing hypothesis proposes that GNOM — a regulator of vesicle formation in...

Severe localized corrosion was found throughout an aeration tank of a modular wastewater treatment plant. Specifically, pitting, crevice corrosion, galvanic corrosion, and intergranular corrosion (IGC) were observed on the 5000 and 6000 series aluminum alloys used in the tank’s construction. One...

Desarrollo de calcretas en cavidades cársticas y/o de raíces: Las calcretes Cuaternarias de la Isla Gran Cayman (Calcrete development in root/karstic cavities: Quaternary calcretes from Grand Cayman)
Download1996-01-01
Alonso Zarza, Ana M., Jones, Brian
The ruggest karst terrain that is developed on the dolostones of the Miocene Caayman Formation on Grand Cayman includes numerous large cavities that formed through the activity of tree roots. The surfaces of those cavities are coated with laminated calcrete crusts that are up to 8 cm thick. These...

Epulorhiza inquilina sp. nov. from Platanthera (Orchidaceae) and a key to Epulorhiza species
Download1997
McInnis, T. M., Currah, R. S., Zettler, L. W.
Abstract: Epulorhiza inquilina sp. nov. is described from the mycorrhizas of mature plants of Platanthera clavellata, P. cristata and P. integrilabia, coexisting terrestrial orchids native to bogs in the southern Appalachians. The new taxon was isolated consistently and exclusively from these...
