For instance, a recent study demonstrated that disparate gradients of O2– and H2O2 differentially regulated plant root proliferation and differentiation, respectively implicating distinct activities for these ROS.
Plant height, ear height, leaf size, and leaf orientation of the two regulated plant architectures were significantly reduced or altered compared with those of the original plants.
Not surprisingly, many regulated plant genes belong to central metabolism, defence mechanisms, and nutrient transport.
Expression of RAP2.1 negatively regulated plant tolerance to cold and drought stress.
The pleiotropic phenotypes we observed support the role of the HLS1 gene family in auxin regulated plant growth and development.
The company had positioned itself so that 70 percent of the electric power it generated was sold like a commodity by its "merchant" plants while 30 percent was sold by regulated plants assured of modest rates of return.
JA-regulated plant defense could be a good target for practical applications to control thrips.
The existence of diverse targets of JA-regulated plant defense indicates that JA concurrently regulates multiple responses involved in plant resistance to thrips damage.
The relatively weak transcription regulatory activities would make the three transcription factors suitable as either positive or negative regulators for modulating ABA signaling and influencing ABA-regulated plant growth and abiotic stress responses.
Some studies have indicated that LAC participates in brassinosteroid-regulated plant growth and that overexpressed OsLAC could lead to a semi-sterile phenotype [ 60].
However, in our study, the foliar spray of Azospirillum metabolites in general improved not only plant growth, but also up-regulated plant genes related to defense mechanisms, and might represent an alternative biological plant regulator.
