In addition, the results presented here demonstrate that plants with a loss of function of ANGUSTIFOLIA were more tolerant to drought and pathogen attack than WT plants.
Englishman Stephen Hales (1677 1761) established by quantitative experiment that there is uptake of water by plants and a loss of water by transpiration and that this is influenced by environmental conditions: he distinguished "root pressure", "leaf suction" and "imbibition" and also noted that the major direction of sap flow in woody tissue is upward.
Treatment of nearly mature anthers with ET accelerated dehiscence, whereas an ET-perception inhibitor retarded dehiscence, and ET-insensitive plants exhibited a loss of anther dehiscence synchrony with flower opening [ 28].
Rapid evolution of alien plants towards a loss of dependency on belowground mutualists has been detected during invasion (e.g. Seifert et al. 2009) but similar studies for aboveground mutualists are scarce (but see Correia et al. 2014).
wilty plants display a loss of turgor under conditions of moderate evaporative demand, and have particularly low ABA levels in seeds (10-fold less than wild-type plants) (Batge et al. 1999) and leaves, especially during drought-stress (Wang et al. 1984).
His office estimates that 275 direct jobs will be lost from the planned shutdown of two local plants, a substantial loss for Burney, with its population of just over 3,000 people, and similarly sized nearby towns.
"There's only so many years you can run a plant making a loss before the decision has to come".
In the most recent quarter, Heinz took charges totaling $355.8 million, or $1.02 a share, for closing a Puerto Rican tuna plant and a loss on the sale of Budget Gourmet.
An emergency diesel generator (EDG) is the ultimate electric power supply source for the operation of emergency engineered safety features when a nuclear power plant experiences a loss of off-site power (LOOP).
Remarkably, in contrast to the eGFP fusion constructs, all plants with a loss-of-function phenotype revealed ectopic FUL expression, which was lacking in plants with a wild-type phenotype.
