B-toxicity-induced changes in seedlings growth, leaf CO2 assimilation, pigments, total soluble protein, malondialdehyde (MDA) and phosphorus were less pronounced in C. sinensis than in C. grandis.
Quantifying the ratio of NAGNAG-derived splice variants under several conditions, we found organ-specific splicing ratios in adult plants and changes in seedlings of different ages.
Existing evidence suggests that compositional changes in seedling communities occurs largely within 50 m of forest edges23.
Moreover, heterogeneity in light availability across the landscape did not explain changes in seedling diversity or CNDD, whether by itself or in interaction with edge-distance and pesticide treatment (Supplementary Table 3b and Supplementary Table 5).
Our analysis showed that 17 NtATGs (NtATG1a, NtATG2, NtATG5, NtATG6, NtATG9, NtATG13a, NtATG13b, NtATG13c, NtATG18a, NtATG18b, NtATG18c, NtATG18d, NtATG18e, NtATG18f, NtVPS15, NtVPS34 and NtTOR) were up-regulated (>2-fold expression change) and 1 NtATG (NtATG8d) was down-regulated (>2-fold expression change) in seedlings after carbon starvation 24 h.
Change in seedling diversity in forest fragments could result from abiotic changes near forest edges23 either directly or via weakened impacts of natural enemies.
Quintuple insertion mutants responded slightly more than wild-type seedlings to GA3 as measured by the change in seedling length in the presence vs. in the absence of the hormone.
Further on, over in one of their gardens, the planting team are putting in seedlings.
Many spaceflight experiments to date have utilized incomplete growth systems (typically having a hydration system but lacking lighting) to study tropic and metabolic changes in germinating seedlings and young plants.
Gene expression changes in wheat seedlings exposed to heat stress were analyzed using Affymetrix Barley1 Genechip [ 13], and analysis of ESTs (expressed sequence tags) was used to screen for the heat stress responsive genes in wheat [ 14].
To detect phenotypic changes in the stressed seedlings, seedlings were moved to control conditions after 48 h of stress.
