Species-dependent changes in stomatal sensitivity to abscisic acid mediated by external pH
(Oxford Univ Press, Oxford, 2006)
The direct effects of pH changes and/or abscisic acid (ABA) on stomatal aperture were examined in epidermal strips of Commelina communis L. and Arabidopsis thaliana. Stomata were initially opened at pH 7 or pH 5. The ...
Multigene analysis for differentiation of aster yellows phytoplasmas infecting carrots in Serbia
(Wiley, Hoboken, 2009)
During a Survey of large cat-rot fields in Serbia, plants showing leaf reddening and/or yellowing, adventitious shoot production and reduction ill taproot size and quality were observed ill a low percentage of plants. To ...
Dissecting a wheat QTL for yield present in a range of environments: from the QTL to candidate genes
(Oxford Univ Press, Oxford, 2006)
Previous studies with 95 bread wheat doubled haploid lines (DHLs) from the cross Chinese Spring (CS)xSQ1 trialled over 24 yearxtreatmentxlocations identified major yield quantitative trait loci (QTLs) in homoeologous ...
Nickel-based super-alloy Inconel 600 morphological modifications by high repetition rate femtosecond Ti:sapphire laser
(Cambridge Univ Press, New York, 2009)
The interaction of Ti:sapphire laser, operating at high repetition rate of 75 MHz, with nickel-based super-alloy Inconel 600 was studied. The laser was emitting at 800 nm and ultrashort pulse duration was 160 fs. Nickel-based ...
Preparation and characterization of Me2O3-CeO2 (Me = B, Al, Ga, In) mixed-oxide catalysts
(Amer Chemical Soc, Washington, 2007)
The present work is focused on the synthesis and characterization of ceria-based mixed oxides. Ceria was combined with the other oxides from group III, with the intention of improving the catalytic properties I of thus ...
Influence of mechanical activation on the structure of ultrafine BaTiO3 powders
(Elsevier Science Sa, Lausanne, 2009)
The influence of mechanical activation in a planetary ball mill on the change of the structure of BaTiO3 powders has been investigated. The particle size distribution of the nonactivated and activated samples was measured ...
Morphophysiological traits and atrazine sensitivity in Chenopodium album L.
(John Wiley & Sons Ltd, Chichester, 2008)
BACKGROUND: A Chenopodium album L. biotype surviving in atrazine-treated Serbian corn fields (VC) was compared against atrazine-susceptible (S) and atrazine-resistant (R) standards. RESULTS: Atrazine (2 kg ha(-1)) killed ...
Larvicidal and antifeedant activity of some plant-derived compounds to Lymantria dispar L. (Lepidoptera : Limantriidae)
(Elsevier Sci Ltd, Oxford, 2008)
Ethanol solutions of essential oil of Ocimum basilicum and its main component, linalool (both isomer forms), all in three concentrations, as well as botanical standard Bioneem (0.5%), were tested for their toxicity and ...
Uniparental chromosome elimination at mitosis and interphase in wheat and pearl millet crosses involves micronucleus formation, progressive heterochromatinization, and DNA fragmentation
(Plant Cell, 2005)
Complete uniparental chromosome elimination occurs in several interspecific hybrids of plants. We studied the mechanisms underlying selective elimination of the paternal chromosomes during the development of wheat (Triticum ...
Preparation and characterization of Me2O3-CeO2 (Me = B, Al, Ga, In) mixed oxide catalysts. 2. Preparation by sol-gel method
(Amer Chemical Soc, Washington, 2008)
The present work focuses on the combination of ceria mixed with another oxide from group III, using the sol-gel method. B2O3- Al2O3- Ga2O3- or In2O3-CeO2 mixed oxides have been prepared in order to improve the catalytic ...
