Abstract Background Water As global warming becomes increasingly severe, it is urgent that we enhance the heat tolerance of crops.We previously reported that Arabidopsis thaliana PHOSPHOINOSITIDE-SPECIFIC PHOSPHOLIPASE C9 (AtPLC9) promotes heat tolerance.Results In this study, we ectopically expressed AtPLC9 in rice to examine its potential to impr
Research institutions generate plenty of agricultural technologies which is capable of improving agricultural productivity.However, most of research outputs developed by research institutions were not properly communicated to the intended users.The current study, therefore, examined the factors that affect the application of communication strategie
This paper evaluates the response on the rate of photosynthesis (Pn), transpiration (E), stomatal conductance (gs) and water use Chopsticks efficiency (WUE) in 15 genotypes of young hop plants (19 BBCH) grown in greenhouses in the conditions of water deficit for the period of 9 days.On the 9th day, the relative content of water in the experimental
The cyclic actions due to waves, currents and winds on offshore platforms frequently cause fatigue Christmas Decoration cracks at hot-spot locations.The remaining fatigue life of such connections depends significantly on the fatigue driving force often measured by the stress-intensity factors.This study examines the fatigue performance of tubular j
Abstract Expansion microscopy (ExM) is a recently invented technology that uses swellable charged polymers, synthesized densely and with appropriate topology throughout Frothing Cups a preserved biological specimen, to physically magnify the specimen 100-fold in volume, or more, in an isotropic fashion.ExM enables nanoscale resolution imaging of pr
