Studies of Resistance to Aphids and Viruses in Arabidopsis thaliana and Capsicum annuum
Cucumber mosaic virus (CMV) causes significant losses in crop production. In this study, methods to enhance plant resistance to CMV infection and infestation by Myzus persicae, a vector that transmits CMV, were assessed. ... -
Leaf and canopy responses to forest degradation and extreme climatic events: a remote sensing perspective
(2020-03-21)Monitoring the responses of leaf functional traits and vegetation structure to environmental change is key to understanding the responses of ecological systems to anthropogenic global change. Advancement in earth observation ... -
Characterisation of an Arabidopsis mutant with altered greening characteristics
(2006-12-08)Two plastid-to-nucleus signalling pathways had previously been identified by studies on genomes uncoupled (gun) mutants of Arabidopsis. A pathway responding to the state of plastid protein synthesis was disrupted in gunl ... -
Improving Uniformity of Potato Crops
(2016-10-22)Within potato crops some tubers are too small or too large to be marketable. There are economic and environmental incentives to improve uniformity, thereby increasing the fraction of yield that is marketable. The potato ...
